Jim Davidson as Buttons in Sinderella Comes Again
Jim Davidson (born Cameron James Davidson, December 13, 1953) is an actor, comedian and presenter. He was born in London. Despite his long-term success, Davidson's present image is of an unsophisticated and politically incorrect stand-up who tends to appeal to the lowest common denominator in his audience. In October 2003 he was criticised by disability rights groups for cancelling a show after objecting to the wheelchair users among his audience[1] (http://www.chortle.co.uk/news/oct03/jim.html).
