Absolutely. He is in his 50's not his 90's.....no excuse to be bigotted.
I used to watch Love My Neighbour and Alf Garnett and laughed at the time, now I would just CRINGE.

hello dizzy..........
'Fraid i was using that argument a week ago, but I've seen the error of my ways.
He doesn't really have any redeeming features...........I think he has his audience, unfortunately I suspect a large proportion of the population share his views.........I thought maybe he was too thick or too 'set in his ways' to have moved with times, but now I realise that that's just the way he is............pretty obnoxious.
Wow why I am not shocked that he walked 
I'm so glad although I would have preferred him to have been booted out first 
As someone said, I wonder if JD kicked off at 9.00 Mmmm trying to get as much exposure as poss. Still if I never see the horrid man again it'll be too soon. Dubai is welcome to him!

I think you are right swing. He is set in his ways and hasnt changed with the times. My folks use a social club and some of the older guys in there are exactly the same and crack the same sort of jokes. Just a way of the world unfortunately, some people aren't willing to change with the times. I do admit I think that the UK is becoming too politically correct but being disrespectful to others different to you just shouldnt be tolerated. If he is saying these things publically it makes me wonder what hes saying behind closed doors.
I dont think hes done himself any favours on this show and should have stayed away from a reality show which is ironic as he so obviously disapproves of them
All IMO of course 
*pushes away soapbox*

Yes he moved there years ago so he didnt have to pay tax IIRC
Although it could have been so he didnt have to pay all his ex wives

Jim couldnt have walked at 9pm last night. He was still there when the eviction took place. He could have argued at 9 though.

It's not a live feed like Big Brother, but the show is beamed to ITV via the Sirius Satellite at 5 degrees east, You can watch the show as it goes to ITV network centre and watch it ad-free. If ITV had "technical difficulties" it would have either been this feed going down, or they couldn't broadcast what was on it. If it was the latter, we could have seen what happened!

I'd just said to my OH, I wouldn't be surprised if ITV gave him the option of walking instead of throwing him out, when Angus said he'd been asked to leave - right decision ITV 
"Was asked to leave" according to Angus. So kicked out, rather than walked?
While I have no time for a blubbering Big Brother 'star' playing to his sexaulity traits (the same as some alpha male with poncy hair and a "get your coat luv, you've pulled" opposite), Davidson's gone on with an attention to bring his act to some sort of mass audience for reaction.
Sadly, he should have played to his snooker show (what was that called?) personality, which was acceptable.

Apparently he didn't walk....
According to Angus he was asked to leave.
I suspect that a lot more has gone on behind the scenes which we won't have seen.
And also according to Angus we'll get more of the story on tomorrow night's show....which will probably be good for the ratings.
