Craig Hill, Scotland’s best loved comedian, has got his very own Friday night show! What’s The Craic Craig!? is the ultimate guide to ‘whats on’ in Craig’s world, that month, that week…or maybe even that night!

Loved for his incisive stand-up, lightning fast improvisation, fabulous characterisations and sublime vocal parodies, Craig is one of the UK’s brightest comedy stars and is set to go supernova. In a run from October through to November, Craig’s brand new primetime show features top celebrity chat, a rowdy live studio audience and Craig’s top tips on the hottest night out, event, book, comedy tour or gig in the UK and Scotland.

Cheeky, irreverent and, of course, wonderfully camp, Craig’s hilarious blend of stand-up and musical comedy has earned him critical acclaim throughout the UK and a following that encompasses young and old, straight and gay, men and women alike. He is one of those rare natural performers, with a seemingly effortless audience rapport and a loyal fan base.

Production starts September. Shows are recorded on Thursdays from Oct 6th. First transmission is on Friday Oct 7th 9.30pm and the series runs for 6 weeks. If you have a gig, album, film, comedy tour, event, book, possible prizes or anything unusual or obscure you’re launching and wish to promote around this time on a primetime comedy show, we want to know about it!!
