A friend took me to see Jim Davidson after he won BB. It's not somewhere I might ever have gone if someone hadn't taken me... but I have to say it was an eye-opener. He did explain a lot of things... why people think he's homophobic, why people think he has a low opinion of disabled people, why he's racist (there were black people, gay people and disabled people in the audience, incidentally). But hey, because you heard once he beat his wife when he was drunk, despite the fact she forgave him... you continue to ram home that hackneyed old point. It's never going to change the fact that he won because he was more popular than whoever it was you were backing.
I loved him but that was last CBB, hope he goes on BOTS, mind you it depends on whether or not he runs down my favourite, if he does then....thats it, I have finished with him....(only kidding)
