Richard Cadell is an entertainment entrepreneur and magician, best known for being the hand of Sooty since 1999.

As well as being a highly respected magician (elite member of the Inner Magic Circle with Gold Star) and award winning children’s performer, he has written, directed and produced numerous theatrical shows through his production company, Duo Entertainment. He also owns and runs the largest amusement park in the South West of England and is constantly in demand as a consultant for major TV programmes placing him in prime position to shape the future of children’s entertainment through the creation of shows of the highest quality.

In June 2008, Sooty's 60th Anniversary, Richard bought the rights for Sooty through his new company, Cadells Ltd. As well as touring with a new live show, reusing a script written by Matthew Corbett, Richard has also proposed three new TV shows for the brand, including a sitcom-type format - similar to how previous Sooty shows have been made - featuring the gang working in a handyman agency, a studio-based live variety show, and a pre-school game show.[1]
