James Cameron Davidson OBE (born 13 December 1953) is an English stand-up comedian, actor, singer and TV presenter. He hosted the television shows Big Break and The Generation Game. In 2014 he was the winner of the 13th series of Celebrity Big Brother. He also developed three adult pantomime shows, Boobs in the Wood, Chalkie Does Dallas, and Sinderella.

Davidson has incorporated jokes about various minority people in his stand-up act, which has made him a subject of criticism and has been involved in several public controversies due to his humour.
