Crump
Television (Excerpts) – 1999
I had to stop him and tell him that he wasn't writing a police report ... the only people he'd talked to that'd had a typewriter in front of him before had been policemen.– Writer Kevin Ireland on coaching Crump, before his publication in literary magazine Mate
An ability to speak freshly and vividly and without cliche ...– A Good Keen Man editor Alexander Fry, on Crump's early literary talent
We'll just have a wee breather here Scotty, we'll have to wait for the dog — he's lighter eh.– Barry to a petrified Scotty (Lloyd Scott) as they recover from a cliff jump, in an 80s Toyota ad
