Perhaps surprisingly, Terry Alderton began his career in football, as a goalkeeper for Southend United, before moving into comedy. He briefly re-signed with the club in 2004 after his performance in the celebrity team of the Sky One reality show The Match.

Now a popular comedian, you will find him doing battle with “The Voices”, two hilarious voices in his head. Though unpredictable, these voices often lead him into an unpredictable comedy routine.

His comedy has seen him nominated for the Perrier Comedy Award in 1999.

He has appeared on comedy programmes such as Live at the Apollo, Dave’s One Night Stand, Comedy Road Show, The Stand Up Show, and Live at the Comedy Store. He has also written and performed in three series of his eponymous BBC Radio 4 show ‘Terry Alderton’s All Crazy Now’.

As well as his comedy, Terry is a presenter and actor. He presented the National Lottery show Red Alert (1999-2000) with Lulu, followed by The Joy of Text (2001) with Ulrika Jonsson. He has made guest appearances on quiz shows such as Pointless Celebrities and Celebrity Mastermind.

As an actor, he appeared in the final series of London’s Burning, and joined the cast of EastEnders as the cab driver Terry Spraggan in 2013.

He is now a popular choice to appear at corporate events, lending his unique style of comedy to after-dinner entertainment, awards shows, and event hosting.
