Jim Davidson claims Gary Glitter is ‘remorseful’ and ‘ready to start a new life’

[Mitchell]

Vile, imagine visiting a convicted paedophile in prison and then saying how remorseful he is.

I could take or leave Jim Davidson before, after this i think i'll leave him, moron!

Put Gary

let him tell us

I do not want to be in His Gang.

Start a 'New life' :joker: bit late in the day for that Gary ! besides being bullcrap.

[Ammi]

…barely more than a few years for taking away childhoods in his abuse of children…it really is appalling how little our children are protected and safeguarded by the justice system…

[joeysteele]

Remorseful or not.
In my view still a likely danger to young and vulnerable.
So no way do I agree with Jim Davidson here.

am i supposed to take that serious, how 'remorseful' he is, what a joke :laugh3:


of course he has been well aware of his actions, no excuses and certainly no redemption for this disgusting paedo pig :idc:


don't let him out, or else he will do this again, once a paedo, always a paedo in my book


as for his songs, well they now have a double meaning for me personally, cannot listen to them anymore

Imagine defending a paedophile, gross

[Oliver_W]

Being praised or defended by Jim Davidson isn't exactly a shining endorsement...

Your last paragraph is spot on for a lot of others too Nicky..
A good point.

Sadly, it rubbed off too on the memory of his group the Glitterband.
Who made some pretty good singles actually.

Actions like his have negative consequences not just for him.

[bots]

Didn't he get a 2nd chance years back and then went off to Vietnam or equivalent and did exactly the same again? He is a persistent repeat offender

Exactly, this isn’t a guy who was caught with child porn on his computer - which would absolutely be bad enough - he actively went abroad and paid for child prostitution. He should be in a cell until he dies for everyone’s safety.

I can’t see even Jim’s hardcore gammon fan base having much time for this one. No one likes a paedo sympathiser.

They Do Not Have Time.

BLM gets Jim’s back up more than paedophilia does, apparently

Yep completely this, there’s no way he should be considered for an open prison, or release in a few years.

[Amy Jade]

He's sorry he got caught more like the dirty nonce

[arista]

All because he took his Computer to
PC World.

No it's because he's a paedophile and downloaded sick, illegal content

Jim is a very popular comedian on here. Always see LT posting his vids :smug:

What Gary Glitter has done is unforgivable and Jim Davidson should be looked at with suspicion for defending him.

Yes but it was only Found out
when he took his Laptop To PC World to get Fixed.


The worker contacted the Police.

[18 November, 1997: Takes it to PC World at Cribbs Causeway
shopping centre near Bristol with a software fault.
Tells the technician not to look at the files.

19 November, 1997: But he does, and Glitter is arrested as
collects the computer. Police search the star's homes in Somerset
and London and seize indecent videos and pictures of children.

December 1997: Christmas tour begins as scheduled but Glitter is cut from Spice Girls moviefollowing his arrest and child porn allegations.]

I supported him on CBB, obviously I don’t support him in this or many of his views outside the house, we all know CBB was edited to show people in a good or bad light so not sure why parallels are being drawn unless the claim is we are all now paedo supporters :shrug:

I haven't drawn that parallel Cherie....I was responding to Sheriff saying his views and comedy were from the past.....clearly not when he was still posting content that was posted here in 2020. That's all I was saying.

I can not (thankfully) think of one person on here who I would in anyway class as a paedo supporter or sympathiser :shrug:

His CD 1984 still selling.

[joeysteele]

I supported Jim Davidson on CBB too actually.
Much more because he was against one of the obnoxious sickening Nolans.
On this occasion Linda Nolan.

His support for Glitter however, absolutely not, no way.
No support from me to that.

[GoldHeart]

Anybody with half a brain cell would have seen his schtick of being racist, homophobic, and misogynistic and known he was a wrong'un, but to some, that added to the appeal I guess :shrug:

I never understood the popularity, he was guising his vile behaviour as him being 'just himself' , like that makes it ok :bored: . It seems once you play the 'honesty card' for some reason it works for people like him , gargoyle Hopkins & useless Lozza . Despite the fact some of these people are attention seekers.

But whatever spin Davidson likes to put on things, I can always see him for what he really is. And now hearing how much he's defending a paedophile ,once again shows what even more of a grotesque person he is.

[The Slim Reaper]

Jim Davidson has a huge following of older people. Those people obviously need a good talking to by the shining examples of humanity on TiBB.

As far as Gary Glitter goes... paedos don't change because they really don't believe what they're doing is wrong. He should never get out.

[user104658]

Jim Davidson has a huge following of older people. Those people obviously need a good talking to by the shining examples of humanity on TiBB.

To be fair, if you watch a bit of his web show it's quite clear that - for whatever reason - Jim Davidson has become a very frustrated, angry, bitter man. I didn't rate him on Big Brother either to be honest, again I felt like there was some serious anger simmering just under the surface, but he seems to have totally gone off the deep end at this point. Almost to the extent of being completely over the top / a parody, perhaps to make some sort of "point".

Oh have a day off love. People are entitled to point out his outdated humour, now paedo-sympathising ways without this tosh. I've never defended a child molester.

[user104658]

To be fair it seems Yewtree was circling him like a tiger shark a few years back. Dropped for lack of evidence, etc. so no doubt he's whiter than whiter than whiter than whiter than white. He's white.

I never said I was a fan, I said he has a quite a big fanbase especially amongst older people.

Again, not a fan... but he proved that at the time of the sexual assault, the Rolls Royce it allegedly took place in was miles away and he was on stage.

And I am entitled to point out that he has a big fanbase. And as I predicted, here you are being outraged.

You didn't do that though, did you love? You did that and followed it up by policing what "TiBB" were saying about his material.

Not allowed an opinion on him and what he puts out in the world because he "has a huge following of older people". A non comment.

As for the love comment, I respond to condescension with condescension.

…I’m not sure if they were best friends, Jax…but I found this vid and some other articles referring to the vid…I guess that it became a ‘hindsight’ thing…it was apparently Roald Dahl’s daughters who introduced him to their father, they knew him first…the vid is a ‘This is your Life’ moment with Tessa and she mentions ‘train loads of schoolgirls in school uniform’ paying £5 each to come and meet Gary at her home…in the vid when she says that…?…Gary Glitter is seen ‘shushing her up’….so in hindsight, yeah that looks particularly sinister….

:umm2: He looks nervous as she describes the whole thing, you have to wonder what was actually going on at the "Gary Glitter fan club".

I would say though, no real evidence that Roald Dhal would have had any idea that his friend was a paedophile. Glitter was, evidently, pretty good at duping and charming people.

[edit] Does the "Which uh... you quite liked" sound a bit pointed? Does mentioning the "in school uniforms" seem designed to deliberately make him feel uncomfortable?

I dunno. Maybe I'm loading more onto it with the benefit of hindsight but you never know.

…I hadn’t realised that one of his charges had been attempted rape of an 8yr old girl…this is part of what Tessa said on the show…

“Gary came to live in my house when he was between jobs,” she told the audience on stage.

“My sister Lucy turned it into quite a successful venture because she used to pack the train full of her adolescent school friends in school uniforms and then she’d skive school.

“She’d bring them up to the house and charge them five pounds a head to come and gaze at Glitter.”

…so it would seem that Jax is correct, they were good friends as he lived at Dahl’s house for a period of time and obviously was introduced originally by Dahl’s daughters….
