Giorgos Mitsikostas

Giorgos Mitsikostas (born 12 October 1968) is a famous Greek comedic impressionist in Greece.

Biography He started his professional career by impersonating Greek public figures, mainly sports people (e.g. famous sportscaster Giannis Diakogiannis and Filippas Sirigos) and politicians (prime ministers Konstantinos Karamanlis and Andreas Papandreou) on radio satiric shows on FM Radio station "Athens 98.4". The name of his show had the -completely- random title, "The conspirators of the night, in the conspiracy of the patsas" (Greek: Οι συνωμότες της νύχτας, στη συνωμοσία του πατσά), in which his co-presenator was, the later well-known TV presenter, Nikos Evaggelatos.

He was doing amateur radio shows some time before as a university student (in the Buness Management department of AUEB) on college radio. His debut on TV was in 1990. Since then he has been on many Greek channels, and afterwards started to impersonate actors, singers and journalists as well, and changed the form of his shows. All of the titles of his shows are a word play, usually with his name.
