Acting diary

IMDb records Craig as Bill in one episode of Mad World in 2023. The programme’s credits also name David Wilde, the director whose approach led to Craig’s Crime Lord role. It is a second connection with Wilde’s screen work, this time under a different character name.

The credit establishes the role and appearance year, rather than the filming dates or what happened on set. No published personal account of Craig’s Mad World filming has been identified, so those memories remain his story to tell.

Craig’s screen credits include Dale in Hollyoaks Later. The October 2021 account published by Craig Campbell SEO mentions earlier appearances in Hollyoaks and River City, making clear that his move into Crime Lord followed previous soap work rather than a first-ever experience of acting.

That earlier experience is part of the background to the director’s later approach. The published account does not describe a Hollyoaks audition, scene or on-set conversation, and no such anecdote is attributed to Craig here.

Craig describes his River City involvement as appearing in a few episodes, with Peter listed among his roles. The BBC Scotland soap forms part of his earlier acting experience, also acknowledged in the October 2021 published account of how his Crime Lord opportunity came about.

For a Glasgow-based businessman, it adds a Scottish television strand to a career that also includes digital marketing and broadcasting. His appearance year and personal filming memories have not been confirmed; the programme’s starting year should not be mistaken for the year Craig appeared.
