    Jimmy Swaggart has died aged 90.

    The Louisiana native was best known for being a captivating Pentecostal preacher with a massive following before being caught on camera with a sex worker in New Orleans in 1988, one of a string of major TV preachers brought down in the 1980s and 1990s by sex scandals.

    More trouble came in 1991 when police in California detained Mr Swaggart with another sex worker. The evangelist was charged with driving on the wrong side of the road and driving an unregistered Jaguar.

    I'm partial to your abracadabra,

    I'm raptured by the joy of it all.

    As Christopher Hitchens said about Falwell, "If you gave him an enema, he could be buried in a matchbox."
