Campaign idea: Teddy landed a Call the Midwife role
Told he would never find work because of his disability, Teddy proved agents wrong and landed a role on Call the Midwife.
This story
When Teddy was 18 months old, an agency told his family that his disability meant he would not get work. His mum Nicola refused to give up and signed him with an agency representing disabled talent, leading to commercial campaigns and magazine shoots. Now 12, he spent 10 days on set filming scenes as Andrew in the television drama Call the Midwife.
