Richard played Vincent Hubbard on the BBC soap. His exit storyline involved a conflict with gangster Aidan Maguire and the police. Also, his fate was left as a mystery for several years. However, later it was revealed officially that he had been killed.
During his final days, Vincent was desperate to escape Aidan’s influence. He was also pressured by the police to act as an informant. That’s when she provided information on Phil Mitchell and Aidan. Later, it was revealed that Vincent was partially responsible for the death of Aidan’s brother years prior. Hence, this led to a vendetta against him.
