Fergus Craig (born April 19, 1980) is a British stand-up comic and actor in theatre, television and radio. He studied at the University of Manchester. Craig is one half of the double act Colin & Fergus, with actor and writer Colin Hoult.
Between 2004-08 Craig and Hoult performed regularly on the London comedy circuit. They performed three shows at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Colin & Fergus '04, Colin & Fergus 2 '05 and Rutherford Lodge '06.
In 2014, Craig published a spoof advice guide, called "Tips For Actors", and in 2021 it was announced that Craig would publish his first novel, entitled Once Upon a Crime.[1]
In 2020, Craig created a series of spoof extracts from a crime novel written by the character of Martin Fishback featuring the character of Detective Roger Le Carre. These have spawned two full length novels, plus a pilot for a sitcom. [citation needed][2]
