I drove Jim's Rolls Royce when i was working in a hotel in the west end. He booked into the hotel Strand Palace, in the early hours, and asked me if i couldpark his car. I couldn't believe the mess inside with the ashtray over flowing, and litter all over the place, ut that didn't other me, it was an honour. This was around late 70s.
J.D.here presents the working class as loverable rouges.But over the last 55years the lower working class have moved from a warm kind of roughness to a scary kind of roughness.London life aint the same.It just aint
Always loved Jim Always will never thought he was racist naturally funny btw I am a person of colour loved his impression of Chalkie my favourite 😂😂😂😂❤
I had a curry with a black friend who went to school with Jim. He said he was sure Chalkie was based on him. He said there was not a racist bone in hus body.
A real comedian , unlike the rubbish woke boring unfunny nasty "comics" that are bitter and twisted we have on TV now with zero talent. He has raised thousands for good causes over the years in particular the armed forces. Well done Jim
@@winklton To me 'funny' equals 'wit'. Stewart Lee is Oxford University educated and his humour is on a much higher intellectual level than Davidson. The calibre of people to whom Lee appeals is much higher than those who find Davidson funny. I find Davidson as funny as a diagnosis of metastatic cancer.
@@winklton It's actually 'YOU'RE in love with' . Getting YOUR YOU'RE right isn't rocket science. It's basic English that a child should grasp with ease. I can be 100% sure that the calibre of people who find Davidson amusing will have a much poorer grasp of the English language than the calibre of people who find Lee amusing. The latter are much more likely to be highly intelligent, educated and cultured.
It's not at all easy to be a comedian so I give him credit for getting up there, also I like how he involved Charlie Drake on his shows and got him work doing pantomimes, I think Jim has a kind heart and his humor may be seen to be racial, but its just observation of characters, no where near as racial as some comedians I can think of. I can understand his comment about the Rolls Royce, and cudos for him going back to mum.
Jimʼs a top bloke. Been a pal of mine for well over 30 years now. Terrific stand up comic and an excellent actor too. We've had some cracking good times. A really nice man, very caring, thoughtful and absolutely not stuck up his own balloon knot like so many are nowadays.
@@winklton Correct. When he retired, his father went around the country speaking about his son and pointing out the dangers of taking recreational drugs and highlighting a decline in moral standards while promoting his deep belief in Christianity. Heaven knows what his reaction would be now since his parting some twenty years ago. There are uploads available to watch on YT.
@@jasonlee1483What does 'woke' mean?.I thought it ment someone who wasn't a racist,sexist,jingo type.But people now seem to be using it as a derogatory term...I don't get it
Miranda god help us so called comedian, she should put videos on of great comics jim davidson ,bernard manning carry on films she might learn something .

Jim Davidson funny? Don't make me laugh. Check out Stewart Lee. Now there's a highly intelligent comedian who'd rip Davidson to shred.
It’s like a breath of fresh air hearing a genuinely funny guy

He's very different to my memory of him and WOW the hair!
Close your eyes and you’d swear you were listening to a young Dennis Waterman.
Both are ginger too.
Coincidence, or yet another cheating woman putting it about?
Only DNA testing will tell!
Genuinely funny guy.

Brilliant!
Five divorces upto 2023
Must be difficult to live with!
He could be or he has a bad choice of women? You know the dolly birds/gold digger type! 😬
I remember this comic from back in my youth. He was from south London .What happened to him?
I heard Michael Parkinson refer to his other guest as David. Would that other guest be David Kossoff by any chance?
Yes I believe it was him, certainly looks like him in a few shots, good spot!
@@watchreadplayretro he was Paul Kossoff father, guitarist in Free
Think it was Boris kàrloff

Chalky lol I couldn't say sausage properly years back so I always ended up with fishcake and chips.
He’s brilliant
Good old days when when you could be funny
I used to like the chalky white character
Who’s beardy?
😂
Loves the troops and has done many a show for them.
Yep nice bloke as well
A Comedic Geniuse 💙
Talentless

" Wooky leftie" Chewbacca reading Marx.

Could be, know I meant WOKEY
Sir Jim ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Old nick nick before he became embittered and radicalised.
The comments from the lefty permanently offended crowd are highly amusing…..
Nothing wrong with being offended by racism.
even back then he wasn't funny
Is the correct answer.
Funny as a heart attack
Back when he was a lesbian..
Good old racist
Not insulting race, celebrating.
Just impersonating somebody with a different accent, it’s natural
Racists do seem to be the funniest storytellers. I would be a dull world without 'em.
@@QuoPaperPlane don’t worry the world is full of them of all colours
He caricatures his own mum, himself, and his own peers too. Does that mean he's anti-white?
Horrible bloke
About as funny as a burning orphanage !!!!!
Bit harsh to be honest!
One could possibly presume that you are a PC woke person 🤔
@@jasonlee1483 I'm not woke he's simply not funny !!!
