TeddyAfter attending comedy workshops run by The Stand Comedy Club, Teddy, a.k.a. Ross Craig, launched himself into the world of stand-up at the tender age of 18.

Teddy's comedy style has evolved through a number of incarnations over the years, initially self-deprecating, then moving onto edgier comic topics. His current approach incorporates true life stories and topical gags weaved together in a darkly comic fashion.

A desire to push boundaries of taste and style saw him become one of the founders of the show Walkout Wednesday, which provided a platform for dark humour. He also created the character of Senga McInally, Scotland's self-styled 'bluest comedienne', but sadly - despite critical acclaim - had to retire the character due to the toll the voice took on his throat. Thankfully his voice can still stand up to the more sedate demands of his normal act.
Something of an allrounder, Teddy joined production company, The Comedy Unit, in 2005, working as a writer, broadcaster, script editor, and producer before spreading his wings as a freelancer. He has worked and appeared on a myriad of shows such as The Karen Dunbar Show (BBC1), McAulay & Co (BBC Radio Scotland), Watson's Wind-Up (BBC Radio Scotland), Freddie Flintoff Ate My Ashes (BBC Radio 5).

Part of The Amazing Bastards (the brains behind Bastardmind, Scotland's only comedy pub quiz), Teddy also took his solo show, Teddy Bares, to the Edinburgh Fringe last year.
