He debuted on stage at the West End in 1956 in ''Theatre/TheComedyOfErrors'' and continued in theatre shows for the rest of the '50s, and then released three comedy songs in 1962: "Right Said Fred", "The Hole in the Ground" and "Gossip Calypso".

The band Music/RightSaidFred (of "I'm Too Sexy" fame) are named after one of his other songs.

Cribbins made some appearances on television as well, such as ''Series/{{The Avengers|1960s}}'', ''Series/WorzelGummidge'', ''Series/FawltyTowers'', and even had a TV series of his own called ''Cribbins'' on Creator/{{ITV}}.
