It's probably true to say I cry easily. I cry when the kids don't make it to boot camp on The X Factor. I cry when they do! I cry when Jim Davidson acts like an ignorant fool and I cry when he's kind of sweet. It does seem to have hit him harder than we thought possible. Or maybe he's just desperately trying to cover himself? Either way it's sob-worthy. Tissues ready, then - here's Jim's goodbye note...

“Hi you lot, if you’re reading this your lives have just improved – I’ve gone.

Sorry I seem to p**s certain of you/most of you off, but what you have to realise is, is everybody has an opinion that means something to them. Even old c**** like me.

Brian I didn’t mean to upset you and I never referred to you as a ‘shirt-lifter’ and you know that, and I certainly didn’t intend to bully you. Quite the reverse.

I tried to be pally, but in your mind you thought me intimidating and a bully. In my mind I was being friendly, but then I see our minds are so much different.

Girls what can I say? Nothing.

Anneka, good luck and keep cool.

Barry, I’ll never forget that walk, and as for ‘issues’, you’re right, but they (you) usually are, champ. But my issues are formed from opinions, we can’t all be issue-free.

Paul, next time I see you I’ll have the sole!!

Marco, sorry to screw up, c’est la vie. Thanks for the burns, see you around boss and thank the team.

PS – Brian G.A.Y means Good as You and you’re as good as any.”
