After Dinner Speaker : Mike Craig
Since 1964 Mike has been responsible for writing or producing over 1000 comedy shows for television and radio.
In the sixties and seventies he wrote for Harry Worth, Ken Dodd, Roy Castle, Selwyn Frogitt, Jimmy Tarbuck, Des O'Connor and Morecambe and Wise, including the classic 1976 Eric and Ernie Christmas Show where Angela Rippon bared her legs!
In 1977 Mike became a BBC Comedy Producer and has a string of success to his credit, in particular his award wining 'Grumbleweeds' radio show, Richard Stilgoes 'Stilgoe's Around' Ken Dodd's radio shows and the memorable 'Al Read' programmes 'such is life'.
He is a Lords Taverner and the only BBC Producer who is a member of the Grand Order of Water Rats, an honour of which he is very proud.
In March 1988, Mike was given a Tribute Lunch by the Variety Club of Great Britain to mark his twenty five year contribution to comedy.
