Perhaps the most prolific e-mailer to the Xfm Shows, Richard Anderson is mockingly described as the show's biggest fan, despite the fact that all of his e-mails are of a derogatory nature. While some suggest that he is a fictional creation of Ricky and Steve, no conclusive evidence has surfaced to support this rumour. The first e-mail from Anderson was read out on the 02 November 2002 show. When discussing what Anderson might look like, Steve said that he imagines him to be "slightly older, with a beard".

Richard Anderson's e-mails

  • 02 November 2002: "Ricky, your show is appalling. Are you actually aware you're on the radio or has someone just secretly stuck a microphone on you?"
  • 02 November 2002: "Ricky, thanks for a really forgettable two hours of radio. I think I'll spend the time next week counting my feet."
  • 09 November 2002: "What actually is the point of your show? Is it to confuse, irritate, depress, or what?"
  • 30 November 2002: "Dear Ricky, sorry for not tuning recently, only I've been busy watching a puddle evaporate. Glad to hear you haven't tinkered with the show's winning formula by trying to introduce any quality into it."
  • 01 February 2003: "Is it true that companies are now getting rid of 'hold' music and are now using your show to irritate their customers on the phone?"
  • 08 February 2003: "Ricky, I'm lazy, I talk nonsense, I'm badly organized, and I believe in ghosts. Can I have a job working on your show?"
  • 10 May 2003: "Commiserations on not winning a Sony. I can't believe you didn't win. I mean, apart from your show's obvious lack of quality and effort; having a monkey for a producer; offering the biggest load of tat as competition prizes; saying 'Hairy Chinese Kid' 48 times every show; Rockbusters; not bothering to turn up for weeks on end; only having three listerners; introducing the comedy characters Camp David, Harry Fuk, Stephen Merchant; apart from insulting every race, religion, sexual orientation; bickering like schoolgirls; and despite the fact you genuinely bring misery into the lives of anyone who listens, I thought you were surefire winners. Better luck next year."
