Order in the court! With his unique personal brand — funny but straightforward; warm but no-nonsense — Robert Rinder has, since 2014, amassed legions of fans as the face and sound legal brain of ITV’s Judge Rinder. (On which he delivers verdicts with all the scathing wit of a Drag Race judge; the library is officially open when he’s around!) He’s long been one of the most famous gay male faces on TV, but in the intervening eight years, the criminal barrister’s media career has grown in exciting new directions. His TV credits, for starters, are now long and varied, and often transcend the courtroom: he’s a familiar face in the primetime light entertainment space, for example, finishing fifth on the 2016 series of Strictly Come Dancing, and appearing on Celebrity Gogglebox with close friend Susannah Reid of Good Morning Britain fame in 2020.
