More About

Jon Culshaw first made international headlines in 1998 by calling the switchboard of No. 10 Downing Street and fooling the operators with his uncanny impression of William Hague, and as a result was put directly through to Prime Minister Tony Blair.

The incident was mentioned at Prime Minister’s Question Time and reported across the national press and in Hansard.

​Jon’s talents as a performer aren’t just limited to the art of impersonation; he’s built an impressive resume that showcases his strengths as an actor, voiceover artist and presenter too.

His love of the outdoors, history, and national heritage has seen him present C5’s The Secrets of The National Trust and More 4’s Walks With My Dog.

Jon Culshaw, Astronomy Enthusiast

A lifelong astronomy enthusiast, Jon was also a part of the presenting team on the world’s iconic and longest-running programme, The Sky at Night, first appearing with Sir Patrick Moore on the show’s 50th anniversary.

Jon recently applied his inimitable skills in playing the iconic David Bowie for a BBC World Service radio drama and later a Terry Pratchett audio-drama for Audible, The Unseen Academicals.

A popular guest and entertainer, Jon has appeared on countless programmes over the years, including Parkinson, The Nightly Show, Friday Night with Jonathan Ross, Pointless Celebrities, The Chase Celebrity Special, This Morning, Good Morning Britain, Countdown’s Dictionary Corner and Top Gear.

Following a sold-out debut tour, 2019 saw Jon embark on his second UK tour of The Great British Take Off alongside Dead Ringers producer Bill Dare. The conversational show sees the pair perform unscripted, unrehearsed, spontaneous comedy as politicians, sports personalities and celebrities old and new.

Hugely popular on the live and touring circuit, following a sold out and critically acclaimed season at the Edinburgh Festival, 2025 has seen Jon take to the stage across the country with his one man show ‘Jon Culshaw: Imposter Syndrome’; a show that sees him anecdotally conjure up an array of impressions from the worlds of entertainment, politics, and beyond in his trademark style.
