Newlyweds: The pair wed on Saturday in a West Sussex ceremony, with Richard dubbing the day 'full of love and laughter'

Richard Osman married Ingrid Oliver in a ‘magical’ ceremony on Saturday.

The Pointless star, 52, took to Instagram today to share a picture from their big day, which showed the newlyweds beaming while walking hand in hand.

Ingrid, 44 – who is best known for her role as Petronella Osgood in Doctor Who – looked sensational in her bridal gown, which featured puffball sleeves and a mermaid hemline.

Richard looked dapper by her side in a fitted navy suit with a red rose fastened on his lapel.

He shared with his followers: ‘The most magical, joyful day on Saturday with my beautiful wife. Surrounded by wonderful friends and family, a day full of love and laughter. We’re so, so happy.”

The couple reportedly tied the knot at Goodwood House, the Duke of Richmond’s West Sussex seat, known for the Glorious Goodwood horse race meeting and the annual Festival of Speed.

Last month, Richard revealed his wedding would be ‘very un-showbizzy’, stating: ‘We’re getting married in December, which is lovely and it’s going to be a very un-showbizzy wedding, just all our school friends. I can’t wait,’

The couple announced their engagement in May after two years of dating, with Richard confirming the news in an interview by stating: ‘exciting, isn’t it?!’

Ingrid Oliver still wants Osgood return after show closed down UNIT

Ingrid Oliver still wants Osgood return after show closed down UNIT

Doctor Who has plenty of poetic licence in its remit, thanks to all that timey-wimey, wibbly-wobbly stuff, so there’s every chance Ingrid Oliver’s dreams of a series comeback can still come true. Right?

After her last appearance in series nine four (!) years ago, Ingrid has revealed that she would “love” to reprise her role as UNIT scientist Petronella Osgood – despite Osgood now being out of a job.

Chatting to Entertainment Weekly about Osgood’s potential, Ingrid said: “Osgood never got to go in the TARDIS, and I think that’s such a shame, and I’d love her to be with a female Doctor as well.”

Keen for Osgood to work alongside Jodie Whittaker’s Thirteen, the actress added: “I think Osgood and a woman Doctor would be brilliant. I still work for UNIT, as far as I’m concerned!”

Unfortunately, not everyone has kept Osgood on UNIT’s books – if the Unified Intelligence Taskforce’s books even exist anymore, that is.

That’s because, as revealed in this year’s New Year special, UNIT no longer exists. In ‘Resolution’, the Doctor demands to speak to Kate Stewart at UNIT, only to be redirected to a special armed forces helpline.

“UNIT operations have been suspended pending a review of funding,” a disappointed Thirteen is told.

There’s no need to give up on Osgood entirely, though. There’s every chance the Unified Intelligence Taskforce can make a comeback – just ask the Daleks.
