Jonathan Watson

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jonathan Watson is a Scottish comedian and impressionist best known for his cult comedy sketch show Only an Excuse?, which parodies people and events from the world of Scottish football. Watson also regularly appears on Tam Cowan's "Offside" television programme on BBC One Scotland where he performs a scaled-down version of Only an Excuse? called "Only a Wee Excuse".

Watson has also turned his hand to political satire with his highly popular "Watson's Wind Up" show which is recorded every Friday at the Glasgow Film Theatre and broadcast on BBC Radio Scotland; the popularity of this has lead to Watson performing satires of Scottish politicians such as Cathy Jamieson, George Galloway and Charles Kennedy on Offside.

Watson also does occasional work as an actor, his most notable role having been in the BBC Scotland sitcom City Lights.
