He actually made money from homophobia and racism, something you can't accuse Winston of.
And yet Davidson got a free ride, won the show and was feted by Emma.

There are definitely undertones of racism from viewers on this show but that's a whole different debate that has been done to death on this forum so let's not go there.
I don't know a lot about Jim Davidson's career, so am unaware if he has made insulting remarks about gay people off-stage in his real life. Feel free to provide me with proof that doesn't involve jokes he's told on a comedy stage which don't count, and I'll be happy to concede defeat
