[Albion] Jim Davidson on Piers Morgan's Life Stories

[Lenny Rider]

Media outlets reporting that a number of people, including a black husband and wife, walked out of the audience when Davidson did his 'Chalky' impersonation from the 1970's/80s.

Obviously this will always offend some people but in all seriousness why did they go in the first place, clearly by the very nature of the show is looking back this subject was always going to be raised?

More column inches for the PC brigade..........

They went to be offended. Job done they left.

you register to get tickets for these shows but don't always know who is appearing until the last minute.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Maybe they left early to beat the queues?

Poor excuse if Piers Morgan offends them.

Can't think of many combinations I would want to see less than Jim Davidson and Piers Morgan. Davidson not realising that the world has moved on and Piers Morgan pretending he has the right to any moral high ground.

Do you mean they showed footage of him doing it in the past, or he did it again?

i would like to see it but only if it was suffixed with "versus a hungry tiger"

Unless I've missed the bit where the people walking out have publicly expressed their distaste to the media, I fail to see how this is 'column inches for the PC brigade'? I'be just done a quick search and it all looks to have been reported pretty much straight up no?

The cringe level will be high!

Davison is so yesterday’s man and an irrelevance these days

 

[Bob'n'weave]

Don't see the point in it. JD refused to move on, like Bernard Manning, standing up for the right to make a joke out of race in a derisory way and continuing to supporting negative racial bias/stereotypes. Funny at the time, along with Love Thy Neighbour, Alf Garnet, On The Buses etc, but not any more. I think the only show that was clever enough to pull off 'race parody' type humour was Rising Damp. Rossiter's character was both odious and unlikable, difficult to empathise with, unlike white roles in other shows that seemed to reflect the social acceptance of biases at the time. IMHO.

What a pity nobody knew in advance that these two specimens would be in the same building as each other. Perhaps a strategic drone strike could have been arranged.

Leaving one of them alive ? Have a word with yourself son.
