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. He was a cast member of all 5 Naked Video series and also appeared in BBC Scotland sitcom City Lights. Other credits include 'Jonathan' in the film Local Hero, an episode of BBC1's Casualty in 2001 as 'Billy Shears' and also an episode of ITV1's The Bill in 2005 as 'Rev. Lewis'.
