Born and raised in West Yorkshire, Hodgson moved to Scotland’s largest city “between lockdowns”, somewhere he admits he didn’t expect to call home. His experiences, including a stab at learning Gaelic, are explored in a new show at Glasgow International Comedy Festival, which gets underway on March 15. “I’m really excited about doing some life stuff again having spent a few years negotiating the waters of social media comedy,” he said. Part of the show deals with his deliberations on how English people living in the Scotland of today are perceived. “I think my career has survived it.”Kieran Hodgson: Big in Scotland, Blackfriars, Glasgow, March 19 and 20. www.glasgowcomedyfestival.com
