Quote:
Falkland Islands police have asked the Met Police to investigate an allegation of sexual abuse by comedian Jim Davidson dating back about 30 years.
A Falkland Islands police spokesman said they were awaiting the outcome of the Met investigation.
Mr Davidson's lawyer said he "vigorously denies" the claims.
A Falklands police spokesman said: "The Falkland Islands government have been made aware of allegations made against Jim Davidson.
"We have asked the Metropolitan Police to make inquiries relating to these allegations. We await the outcome of the investigation."
Mr Davidson's solicitor Henri Brandman said on Saturday: "Jim continues to vigorously deny the allegations that have been put to him and is helping the police as fully as possible in their inquiries.
"He has not been charged with any offence. Jim has not been interviewed in respect of any alleged incident with a woman suggested to have taken place in the Falkland Islands about 30 years ago.
"Unless and until he is interviewed on that subject, neither he nor I can make any comment in that respect."
