Keith "Cheggers" Chegwin (born 17 January 1957) is an English television presenter, former child actor and singer.

Career

Chegwin is best known for presenting the shows, Multi-Coloured Swap Shop, Cheggers Plays Pop and Saturday Superstore. He released a pop single called "I Wanna Be a Star" with his Swap Shop co-presenters Noel Edmunds and Maggie Philbin in 1981. He also appeared in the controversial game show Naked Jungle in which all of the contestants and presenters had to be naked.

Extras

Chegwin played himself in the first episode of the second series of Extras written by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant. After Paul Shane backed out of When The Whistle Blows because it was "too broad," he was replaced with Chegwin. His character made bigoted remarks about black people and homosexuals and was inept at acting. The role was originally offered to ventriloquist, Keith Harris, but he declined because he felt the script was racist. In an article from the Liverpool Echo, Chegwin commented on the controversy by saying, "The people who didn't get it probably think Johnny Depp really is a pirate."
