BNP favourite and none time funny man Jim Davidson is bankrupt. I suspect that if you asked him why, he would suggest that his 'comic' style was somewhat hampered by political correctness. Although he would be more likely say something like "These days you can't even call a spade a spade without someone getting their kaftan in a twist".
Davidson is not the first 'comedian' to suffer from an inability to adapt to a changing social climate. In 1994 Bernard Manning was forced into poverty and resorted to selling layers of his fat for roof insulation to make ends meet.
In retirement Davidson will join a number of other ex-'entertainers' who's time has passed, including 'illusionist' Paul Daniels, perm-casualty Tommy Cannon, formerly of duo Cannon & Ball and below-par all rounder Brian Connolly. They will live out the remainder of their lives at a farm in Suffolk, housed in small wire cages in a barn and fed on the ground-up remains of other 'entertainers' .
