Broadcasting career[edit]
McCulloch is a former BBC Scotland, Setanta and STV journalist and television
presenter.
While at STV, McCulloch presented The Live Hogmanay Show, and was a roving
reporter for the Scottish kids magazine show Skoosh and the lifestyle magazine
programme The Five Thirty Show. He was best known, however, for working as a
sports news presenter on the Central Scotland edition of STV News at Six and, from
March 2010, presenting the sports magazine show Sports Centre: Friday Night

v Brazil from the Emirates Stadium in February 2011, as well as hosting coverage of the
Murrayfield Rugby Sevens.
McCulloch left STV in August 2011 after it was announced that STV would be dropping
Friday Night Football from their schedule,[2] and shortly afterwards started appearing as
an on-screen football reporter on Sky Sport's flagship Saturday football show Soccer
Saturday.
Previously, he worked for Setanta Sports as a commentator and voice-over artist for
its SPL and European football coverage.

Other media work[edit]

He is also a media trainer and presenter coach. He was also a presenter on Bid TV
(formerly known as Bid-Up TV), between 2000–2003, and L!VE TV's local Edinburgh

Until 2017, McCulloch was a host for superscoreboard on Radio Clyde but left to be a
correspondent on Celtic TV.
