Jim Davidson Arrested by Operation Yewtree

 

A 59-year-old man was arrested this morning by Operation Yewtree. According to local news agency INS, this afternoon police are gathering evidence outside 59-year-old TV presenter Jim Davidson’s house.

In October Davidson wrote on his blog:

“The Savile witch hunt is going a bit silly now. We all are starting to speculate and accuse … even in jest. So no, I don’t know who’s next. Well, if I was in the pub with the lads it would be a different story. Everyone has had the nod. Everyone is an expert. Just pick someone you don’t like and say it’s them.”

“I read a thing today where someone saw Jimmy Savile pinch some girl’s bum. Apparently, that’s ­sexual assault. Where will all this end? As odd as he was, Savile can’t defend himself. The bloke’s dead for God’s sake. Let’s move on.”

Davidson is rumoured to be going into the house for the latest series of Celebrity Big Brother, starting tomorrow evening…

UPDATE: Confirmed: Jim Davidson was arrested this afternoon at a West London police station.

Hmmm, well, I won't be popular for saying this, but I agree with what he said up there.

 

I can't understand why these investigations are concentrating on individuals when there was institutional blind eyes being turned and no one seems to be doing anything about that.

Jim Davidson arrested by Savile probe cops

The Sun - Breaking News
 
 

VETERAN comic Jim Davidson has been arrested by  cops probing the Jimmy Savile  sex abuse scandal.

Davidson, 59, was one of two men arrested today on suspicion of sexual  offences as part of Operation Yewtree.

He is understood to have been detained at London's Heathrow airport after  flying into the country ahead of a planned appearance on telly show  Celebrity  Big Brother, which starts tomorrow night.

Police said a 59 year-old man was arrested in "west London" at noon  and  taken into custody at a London police station.

Uniformed police were stationed at Davidson's pink-coloured home in  Stockbridge, Hants today.

And, earlier this afternoon three people - believed to be plain clothes  police  officers - arrived at the house and let themselves in. At least one was  carrying clear evidence bags.

Asked if they were police officers, one answered: "We might be."

After entering the property they drew the curtains on windows on the ground  floor.

The second man is understood to be a fellow entertainment personality, who  has  worked with Davidson and is a current BBC employee.

Police confirmed a 53 year-old man was arrested at an address in Hampshire at  8.00am and taken to a nearby police station for questioning.

They are the ninth and tenth people arrested as part of Operation Yewtree -  the investigation into sex abuse allegations against Savile "and others".

Other high-profile names include former pop star Gary Glitter, comedian  Freddie Starr, and publicist Max Clifford.

In a statement, police said the new arrests were not directly connected to  Savile, adding: "Both individuals fall under the strand of the  investigation  we have termed 'others'."

Last night Davidson's agent Laurie Mansfield declined to comment

Waterloo Road’s Healey for Celebrity Big Brother?

Waterloo Road’s Healey for Celebrity Big Brother?

Is Waterloo Road favourite Chelsee Healey (Who played Janeece Bryant) swapping the famous school for the Big Brother house?

A few months ago there was small speculation about Chelsee entering the CBB house and rumours have now reappeared after a suggestive tweet by Chelsee.

Last night Healey tweeted “January is going to be a very big month for me…….. All will be revealed soon! Can’t wait xx”

I think she's really dumb.    I saw her in the Vagina Monologues - she kept stuttering over her script.   I don't think she was acting her part in Waterloo Road.

I've never watched Waterloo Rd so only know her from Strictly

All the ones arrested seem to have the same trait..complete arrogance..

When Davidson's wife, Julie, finally left him in the mid 80's she dated Gary Farrow (now married to The Sun's Jane Moore).  They used to drink occasionally in a pub with Ted Beston....who was recently arrested in connection to the Savil investigation. 

It's getting to the point where it looks like if you know someone under suspicion then you are too!
