Davidson hasn't been questioned over historic sex offence, lawyer says

A lawyer for the entertainer Jim Davidson today said his client has not been interviewed over an alleged historic sexual offence carried out in the Falkland Islands.

Davidson, who was yesterday rebailed by detectives from Operation Yewtree – the probe launched in the aftermath of the Jimmy Savile scandal – was originally arrested by Scotland Yard in January over allegations of historic sexual offences against women in the UK.
