@watsoncomedian.bsky.social As the thunder and lightning crashes around me this morning I have found myself thinking “I wonder how Mark Watson is doing?”
Of course, you may be free from storms where you are. Still, I hope you’re doing ok regardless of weather😊

@ferguscraig.bsky.social Hi Fergus. Did you do a sketch of a Geordie footballer telling a lighthearted anecdote about a night out with the lads & it becomes clear that they killed a man? I feel like I can still see his eyes twitch to the side as he realises he’s said too much. Have I made this up??

Seems fitting to be enjoying what Friday Night Dinner would insist we call “children’s lager” while reading this. A brilliant book I thoroughly recommend

@ferguscraig.bsky.social Hi Fergus. Could you please repost your tips for keeping cool in the warm weather? I know it was from a few years ago but I loved it and can’t find it anywhere

@rachelburden.bsky.social Hi Rachel. My mom listens to you every morning - she’s a big fan. She’s starting to get worried about Rick as (in her words) “He never seems to be on any more” Is he ok? Has he left the show?

@watsoncomedian.bsky.social Mark, can I ask you a Bristol question? Someone told me yesterday that people in Bristol would say “smooth the dog” rather than “stroke the dog”. Surely that’s not true??

Well Mackenzie Crook's Small Prophets is an absolute sheer delight isn't it. No one else does quite what he does. Magical and beautiful and hilarious all at once.

I never share anything on here and I’ve got no followers anyway, but just in case one person sees this……this has got to be one of the best things you’ll see on tv. Just watch it. If you think you’ll like it, watch it. If you think you won’t, watch it anyway. Pure tv magic

@watsoncomedian.bsky.social Just had the joy of randomly switching on the tv and finding they were showing an episode of your series of Taskmaster. I hope you weren’t paid by the word for this episode - “Fiddly…..how?…..Fiddly”

@watsoncomedian.bsky.social When are you going to be on Countdown again Mark? I was watching today’s episode and thought “this needs more of a Watson energy”

@pierrenovellie.bsky.social Only listened to Friday’s podcast today and gutted to discover you’re leaving. We’ll miss you but looking forward to seeing whatever you’re doing next - good luck with it all. At least Frank took it well(!) 🤣🤣🤣

@pierrenovellie.bsky.social Listening to yesterday’s Frank Skinner podcast with the talk of your gaming podcast, I’m wondering how retro your reviews go. Would you do “Horace Goes Skiing”? (A superb 80s game for the ZX Spectrum) If you press play on the cassette now it might be loaded up by Xmas!!

@pierrenovellie.bsky.social Loved your description of Donald Trump’s “slightly wacky attitude to numbers and thoughts”
You should have taken wedding ring advice from my dad who had one fashioned from a sawn off piece of a pipe. 50 years now he’s been wearing his “bespoke” jewellery!

@watsoncomedian.bsky.social Brought my dad to see you for the first time on Saturday and he asked “Is he the anxious sounding guy I’ve heard on the radio?” I wasn’t sure if that was fair.
Anyway, you started the show standing about 3ft from us in row D, anxiously discussing your Bham sales figures!

@watsoncomedian.bsky.social Enjoyed the show tonight Mark, even the bit where things threatened to go a bit Baby Reindeer. We’re all a bit worried about you - give us three rings when you get home 🥰
Also, it’s lovely to see your son carrying on the Watson Cheeky Texts tradition 💰

@watsoncomedian.bsky.social Just seen on the MAC Birmingham website that they are close today “due to unforeseen circumstances” Presumably they’re busy working up this year’s excuse to make the Mark Watson crowd sit outdoors again…..

Sounds like you absolutely battered us 0-0 yesterday @mkn1ght.bsky.social I wasn’t at the game. I’ve been to Goodison a few times but not yet had the chance to see a game in HD. (I’ll get me coat)
