==Humour== Like other rural stereotypes, teuchters commonly feature in jokes ([[Billy Connolly]] has performed and recorded a sketch where a teuchter visiting the city marvels at a bus as "a hoose wi wheels") though such stories often end with the apparently naive teuchter triumphing through hidden wiliness. The archetypal cartoon teuchter is the cartoon character [[Angus Og (comic strip)|Angus Og]], created by [[Ewen Bain]]. A teuchter is the hero of Scottish musician [[Bill Hill (musician)|Bill Hill]]'s ''The Portree Kid'',<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.azirishmusic.com/songs/144.htm |title=Arizona Irish Music Society |publisher=Azirishmusic.com |date=1999-10-30 |access-date=2010-03-30 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100219114834/http://www.azirishmusic.com/songs/144.htm |archive-date=2010-02-19 }}</ref> which parodies the song ''Ghost Riders in the Sky'' as "The teuchter that cam frae [[Skye]]".
