He has been primarily portrayed by Paul Paddick since 1996, although Anthony Field played him in the very early days of the group.
He was introduced in 1993 on the EP The Adventures Of Captain Feathersword, The Friendly Pirate. He was created because Anthony knew that kids liked pirates, but was given a feathersword rather than a normal sword to make him less intimidating to children.
