Why is Richard's Dad More Successful Than Richard? Leading criminal defence barrister Paul Bacon argues the case as to why he’s more successful than Richard. Paul tells us about representing the convicted murderer Michael Stone for over 20 years, who he maintains is the victim of a miscarriage of justice over the murder of Lin and Megan Russell in 1996; Paul’s successful defence of Ruth Neave, who was wrongly accused of murdering her young son Rikki in 1994, and how the case was finally solved 18 years later; changing the law to help those with mental health issues; meeting with the serial killer Levi Bellfield; working alongside child murderer Ian Huntley’s defence team; and his never-ending pride in his son, who has never, ever disappointed him (his son being the broadcaster Richard Bacon).

Why is Tom Molnar More Successful Than Richard? On this week’s episode, the co-founder of the fast-growing, high street behemoth Gail’s talks to Richard about how he got obsessed with bread, running 197 stores (and counting), how they almost doomed it before it started by calling it ‘Fat Fingers’, protests against branches opening, what it means to take outside funding, and whether the £1 Greggs sausage roll is better than theirs. WARNING: contains scenes of Richard eating a Gails’s blueberry muffin, which would never be allowed to happen on the BBC.

Why Is Will Beckett More Successful Than Richard? On this week's episode, the founder of the iconic steakhouse Hawksmoor talks to Richard about his meat-based triumph, the lessons learned from his failed early ventures, suppressing the British urge to downplay success, his mum's career as a wine journalist, and Richard's opinion that medium-well steak is much, much better than rare steak, a statement that only cowards could disagree with.
