Rolf Harris dead

Heard he was really ill with cancer a while ago so not suprised by todays news.
Hard to argue with the general sentiment of the thread. At least, unlike Saville, he paid for his crimes.

Yet, Rolf Harris was part of my childhood and I feel strangely sad at the loss of a figure who, I guess, never really was.
Its the loss of innocence thats sad.
 
I sort of a agree with that as well

He obviously was a monster who should have never been allowed to get any where near children but at the back of my head he was always someone I used to love watching on tv when I was little . It does make you question some of the things you were brought up with. (reminds me of michael jackson )

This whole ordeal with him being found out really sucks for us older peple :(
I get your point but I imagine it sucks a lot more for his victims and their families. I'll be gracious and say it was expressed inelegantly.
 
Approx 18 years ago, he and his wife were behind my parents in the economy class check in queue at Heathrow. He asked of some airport staff if they could jump the queue, and they said the only folks that could jump the queue would be the disabled, so at the behest of the now deceased, they rustled up 2 wheelchairs for him and his wife to sail through unimpeded. My folks were stunned, 1 that he was flying economy, and 2, that he had the audacity to bypass the system

always thought he was a wrong ‘un after that

Aww, I was hoping that story would go "so at the behest of the now deceased, they broke both his legs"
