    sundayboy says:

    Assuming that mardypants is asking the question because he wants the answer to 23 down in the Sunday Mail crossword, the newspaper have their facts wrong, because the answer has only five letters. Richards the correct answer, will not fit, whereas Wragg the incorrect one does.
