A career from Shetland to Sportscene

Jonathan Sutherland, born in 1977, began his career in his early twenties at BBC Radio Shetland in Lerwick. His mother arranged his initial work experience there, and he progressed to on-air roles despite early challenges with nervousness. Around 2003 he relocated to Glasgow to produce sports bulletins for BBC Radio Scotland, later freelancing for the BBC and briefly serving as deputy editor of the Shetland Weekly news.

As presenter of BBC Scotland's flagship football show, he now regards the beautiful game and its many quirks as a constant in his life. His journey from Shetland to Sportscene is covered in a piece on the Shetland News site, where he reflects on becoming such a familiar face in the world of football.
