I see Jimmy Carr has put his tax evasion money to good use by getting a new pair of gnashers.

    You're saying you think he bought two new teeth?

    He's quite a wealthy individual. I doubt that however much he saved with his tax arrangements had any bearing on whether or not he got his teeth done. By the way, he had them done ages ago.

    Would anyone happen to know if Dave's being locked in a bank was true or not? I missed as the pizza guy arrived at the same time

    Tax avoidance, careful of slander.

    He should do more tax avoidance, it gives him more material for panel shows and the like.

    The funniest thing was his U-turn on the matter. First of all he was basically saying 'So what?' and then when public outrage grew he was so terribly sorry. :rolleyes:

    He didn't evade any tax, he avoided it. Massive, massive difference.

    If only Starbucks & Google joked about their tax situation people would forgive and find it funny.

    Were his teeth done on the NHS?

    I doubt they were done on the NHS.

    What Jimmy Carr did was perfectly legal.

    He should be sanctioned from performing until he pays his tax. Failing that, prison sentence and all his assets given to the less well-off.

    Prison sentence for what? There is no tax to pay, what he did was perfectly legal.

    When did he say, "So what?" As I recall, the public outrage was immediate on it becoming public knowledge.

    He was on Top Gear tonight and joked with Richard Hammond about his very white teeth.
