Greg Hemphill Career

Hemphill has appeared in several projects. In 1990, he performed at the Edinburgh Fringe with Rab Christie and Neil Warhurst as the "Trio Brothers Troup", where they won the 1990 "So You Think You're Funny" trophy. He continued his stage work, appearing in the 1992 God Plus Support performance and in the popular 1995 Only an Excuse? tour. He also ventured into radio as the original presenter of football show, Off the Ball on BBC Radio Scotland and Eddie Mair Live.

Hemphill and Kiernan scripted seven episodes between 1999 and 2000, for then popular children's television show Hububb. These were, Lullabubb, Top of the Bubbs, Conquer Leserest, Casual-Tea, Bubb Goes Boo, 2010: A Space Bubbsy and No Go Pogo. He guest starred alongside Kiernan in one episode, which he also scripted with Kiernan, Casual-Tea. However, his best known performances are alongside Ford Kiernan in the television sketch show Chewin' the Fat and its spin off, Still Game. In series three of Still Game, Hemphill's brother Steve has a cameo as a CN Tower lift operative.

Following the success of Chewin' The Fat, Kiernan and Hemphill wrote Still Game. Still Game was based on the original play that the pair wrote for the Edinburgh Festival in 1997. The Characters Jack Jarvis and Victor McDade had appeared throughout the four series of Chewin' The Fat. Six series, and four specials were broadcast between 2002 and 2007.

In 2014, Still Game returned, with a live show at The SSE Hydro, where Hemphill reunited with Ford Kiernan. The show was a sell out, and featured the whole original cast Paul Riley, Mark Cox, Jane McCarry, Sanjeev Kohli and Gavin Mitchell. The series returned to television screens on BBC One in October 2016.

Kiernan and Hemphill announced another live show for SSE Hydro in 2017.

Hemphill appeared in the Scottish Gaelic-language drama, Eilbheas, in which Hemphill played the spirit of Elvis set in the Western Isles. It was first shown on the launch night of BBC Alba. He has also written Appointment with the Wicker Man with Donald McLeary for the National Theatre of Scotland, a stage production about a small community's attempts to produce a musical version of The Wicker Man.

Hemphill has been involved in the Scottish wrestling scene, matched against actor, comedian and writer, Robert Florence. They played bitter rivals at "Kelvin Brawl" in the Glasgow's Kelvin Hall on 21 June 2013. Comedian Frankie Boyle became part of this venture, unmasking himself at the end of the match.

Hemphill guest starred in an episode of the award-winning children's television programme Katie Morag in 2014, playing the part of Donald John Cameron.

In 2016, alongside Donald McLeary, Hemphill wrote the script for the horror/comedy film West Skerra Light. At a length of one hour, this was his first full-length drama as a film director. In 2017, alongside Hopscotch Films, Hemphill was involved in directing the black comedy ghost-hunting drama Long Night at Blackstone. It is due to be screened on BBC ONE Scotland on 2 April.

CBeebies stars from iconic noughties show are unrecognisable as they send fans wild by reuniting for new snap

Two of the stars of the famous CBeebies series Balamory have reunited 20 years after the hit show ended. The pre-school series, which aired between 2002 and 2005, followed characters dressed in shades that matched their houses.

When actress Julie Wilson Nimmo is captured on Tobermory's waterfront, she is feted like king ­Hollywood royalty. She did warn her husband that this could happen. Greg Hemphill grins with merriment as his other half laps up all the attention. 'I was in Still Game,' he says, to no one in particular. Yes, but his wife appeared in the wildly popular children's TV show Balamory, which was shot in this very town. Miss Hoolie, a kindergarten teacher, was on the Isle of Mull for four years and was instrumental in the emergence of a tsunami of toddler tourism.

Yes, Kate it's a joy to go wild swimming (just look out for the algae, swimmer's itch and the poisonous weever fish! (Fortentino: a film about a man who was enslaved in his youth.)

It's the health craze that has sent thousands of people, including the Princess of Wales, scuba diving into the country's rivers, lochs, and seas. However, wild swimming has now become so popular that Scottish health officials have been compelled to issue new safety guidelines. While they acknowledge that taking the plunge can improve mental and physical health, Public Health Scotland officials have been quick to point out the alarming range of potential risks, from potentially lethal cold water shock to stinging jellyfish to venomous weever fish. Anybody brave enough to don their costume or wetsuit is also warned of toxins, riptides, and a'swimmer's itch,' a rash caused by tiny skin-burrowing parasites.
