Andrew William John McCrorie-Shand (born 14 May 1955) is a British composer. He is mostly known for having composed the original theme tune for Teletubbies, and also the chart topping hit that followed it, Teletubbies say "Eh-oh!".

Contents

He was born in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire into a musical family and taught to play piano from age 5. McCrorie-Shand joined the mid-1970s progressive rock band Druid as the keyboardist for the band's two studio albums. Then he was signed to EMI Records where he worked with major performers of the era such as Leo Sayer, Sally Oldfield, Billy Ocean and Sarah Brightman.

McCrorie-Shand was later looked upon by the children's production company Ragdoll Productions and chosen to work on TV shows such as Teletubbies, Brum, Tots TV, Boohbah, Rosie and Jim, The Adventures of Abney & Teal and Twirlywoos.

He has not returned for the remake of Teletubbies, though he arranged the new orchestral version of the original theme .
