Jimmy Savile - Sexual Predator

[Gerard]

Dunno how this vid slipped past.

"Dear jimmy, fix it for me to **** on a *****".

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Ha, I missed the first few pages

The number of defenders is mind blowing, no wonder he got away with it all.

Who misses 'cheets64'

I thought this was in development hell and it wasn't going to come out... Well well well...

His flat was opposite my old house. Used to bump into him regularly

Did he fix anything for ya?

 

[plasmahal]

BBC glorification of their peado factory....

 

[GGizmo]

Most people knew that he was dodgy.

All the narrative from the media seems to be to act shocked.

 

[jpaul]

yep - It seems rather gratuitous pandering to the the tru-crime appetite (sutcliffe, Farquhar, salisbury) making the BBC money, unless all proceeds (eg. foreign sales) go to appropriate charities/victims -
will they portray the BBC in a kindly light - I don't know , won't be watching.
did civil cases ever access his assets.

First few pages of this thread really disagree with you.

Like the Iraq war supporters, can count them on your hands now.

So will this go into just how much the BBC covered up or will it gloss over their part in his noncing?

 

[GGizmo]

First few pages of this thread really disagree with you.

It was well known he was dodgy, that something wasn't right about his eccentric personality.

He was first brought up to me in conversation when I was around 14.

He was brought in for questioning for one of the Yorkshire ripper murders, and they happened around the 1970s.

On a lighter note, many people knew when he was doing the charity runs he was secretly getting in a car and then appearing later on near the finish line.

Lesson from Saville is that sunlight is the best disinfectant, like being shone on Brand.


... next salacious true-crime drama from c4, another must watch

Dead Ringers and Spitting Image actor John Culshaw will play Boris Johnson in a Channel 4 dramatisation of events inside No 10 during lockdown that led to the partygate scandal.
W1A star Ophelia Lovibond and The Chronicles of Narnia actress Georgie Henley will play fictional special advisers in Partygate, which will be shown on the channel from Tuesday.

A man who taught me the life changing skill of milking a cow blindfold is not one I found wanting without considerable introversion

Louis Theroux talks at length about Jimmy Saville in his 2019 book. Theroux is someone who followed Saville around at length for a TV show and he’s clearly a man haunted by giving Saville the benefit of the doubt.

I think a lot of people dismissed him as a fairly harmless weirdo.

I remember a Sunday magazine article about the man and his luxury equipped caravan he kept in the BBC car park. All above board obviously.

 

[dave28]

Not seen it obviously but I would have thought its an attempt by the BBC to put a spin on the story in their own favour.

Probably the first time theroux interviewed someone more intelligent than himself -
his regular exploitative/ingratiating interviews of those less intelligent than himself - are they serious journalism ?. Sacha Baren Coen now exemplifies that style, taking down bigger names.
