Mark Watson

Biography

Bristol-born stand-up comedian known for innovative stage shows such as his 24-hour stand-up marathons and a show in which he and his audience collaborated on writing a novel. He's also written several novels of his own (as well as a non-fiction book on environmental issues) and appeared on just about every panel show going.

Trivia

The other thing he's famous for is (not) having a Welsh accent. When he started doing stand-up, he adopted a Welsh accent as part of his stage persona, and he kept it up for a good few years, eventually dropping it around the time of We Need Answers - by which time most people had worked out it wasn't his real accent anyway.
