Helping Charity And Kids

Sport Relief- in 2008 Ed Petrie ran his sport relief mile around BBC TV Centre.

On 19th January 2010 Ed Petrie revealed he wore glasses on CBBC (even though in the past Ed Petrie has once denied to Oucho that he wore glasses). This was to make kids not feel ashamed about wearing glasses.

CBBC's Ed Petrie
This description is based on Ed's character not his real life self.

Ed loves the colour pink, which Oucho makes fun of.

Ed is often described of looking like a horse.

Ed is tight with money and will do anything to save money, Oucho annoys Ed sometimes and Ed gets angry with Oucho, but deep down Ed is soft at heart and he never likes to see his best friend Oucho upset.

Ed comes across as lonely and unlikeable. But he's really just unlucky in life and misunderstood.

Ed used to live next door to Ted Metrie who has suceeded in everything where Ed has failed which has turned Ed jealous towards him.

Ed is unlucky in love in a episode of T.I. Ed nearly accidently married Mable, he also once fell in love with the stationary lady but it turned out she was already married.

Ed and Oucho most of the time have a love/hate relationship but lately Oucho has shown and even admited his secret feelings of love for Ed

but Ed seems to be in denial that he feels the same way about Oucho. But Ed did say to Oucho in a BBC link "I love you".

Ed seems to have a crush on Fiona Bruce as he mentioned her two different presenting days.

Ed's trend setting style
Ed Petrie's trademark is his collection of bright funky t-shirts, he manly has t-shirts from David and Goliath and Lazy Oaf.

Nickelodeon

Wonderful World Of Weird
The first presenting work Ed did for CBBC was on the show Wonderful World Of Weird, a show about anything out of the ordinary. It was broadcast in 2007.

There were 3 teams, each with a child and a celebrity adult. The adults were Jake Humphrey (blue), Ortis (yellow) (he had no last name, not even in credits) and Lizzie Greenwood-Hughes (red).

The teams were called The Flying Pigs (blue), Red Hot Chilli Rockets (red) and Sofa Giraffes (yellow).

Ed was a ringleader who would introduce the show. He was only ever referred to as "Ed" never Ed Petrie.

15 45 minute episodes were made.

Ed was always dressed in a red ringleader jacket and black top hat and blue jeans his shirt would sometimes be black or white.

A second series was never made,but has been made fun of in a few gags on Ed and Oucho with Oucho saying "Ed when is series 2 being made?"Ed then reacts by tip toeing around what Oucho just said.

Ed's Wonderful World of Weird Catchphrases

Reviews
"Ed Petrie brings a schoolboyish charm - and sense of humour - to an enjoyable, broadly observational set.

''His drama-school training gives him a relaxed manner on stage perhaps too relaxed sometimes - and his writing is solid. And while he can't always avoid cliched topics, at least he tries to avoid cliched punchlines.''

Most of the set's not quite strong enough to really distinguish himself, but stupid over-exaggerations, and a frank routine about marrying and divorcing young hit the spot.

''The memorable gimmick that sets him apart, though, is his cartoons. Taking to the stage with a giant flip-chart, he illustrates his more juvenile moments with some aptly immature Viz-style sketches. And for all their lack of sophistication, they are damn funny''"

Chortle November 2005

Writing
In 2005 Ed helped to write the BBC Radio 1 comedy, The Milk Run.

He's currently writing with Chris Johnson for Ed and Chris at the weekends.
