If you drew a Venn diagram featuring David Bowie and comedian Jack Docherty you would not expect much overlap. But Docherty might disagree with you. For the former chat show host and star of sitcom Scot Squad the links are so strong he has written this extremely enjoyable piece about his connection with late, great starman.
From the moment Docherty struts on draped in a white cape with Japanese lettering, he puts everything into his performance. His love for the ever-changing icon is never in doubt even if it started out on a budget. His outfit was made by his mum from curtain material when he was 13 rather than by Bowie’s favoured designer Yamamoto.
