It's well known a lot of molesters - think they had some kind of "right" to do it. This is a self-belief they have which also makes them think that what they did was right and enables them to live with it!

Coleen Nolan said that Saville was very hands on and she didn't like it back when the Nolans were on Top of the Pops! That is one person who felt uncomfortable with Saville - perhaps others of less fame were intimidated to keep their gobs shut!

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

You persist with your wild allegations despite no proof, I can no longer stomach your sick jibes. I therfore withdraw from this topic and any that you subscribe to, I will also put you on my ignore list (you are the first) as your contribution to this site lowers the topic level to the gutter.

In this video at 3.30 - listen to what Coleen Nolan says! IN her own words, "I was 14 and he was all over me!" Very professional.

If you feel so upset by this then I wonder why? Listen to what Coleen Nolan said about Mr Saville!

Instead of searching for more trash, why not consider what effect your perverse form of witch hunt is having so far as what others think of you?

I know you have feelings, otherwise you wouldn't spit your dummy out so easily when people offer genuine criticism for the toxic rubbish you pollute the site with.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

You seem to know quite a lot about this subject and how "these people" feel, ummmm;)

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Give it a rest! If you feel so strongly start an investigation and look for people who may be able to provide solid evidence and then take any direct information further through the appropriate channels.
You are messing with smoke and mirrors as it is or is it just that you are playing devil's advocate?

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

It's common psychological make up of those types of people they think they are superior which is what thinks they can get away with it! it's in all the criminal profiling manuals etc - if you can read! :rolleyes:

Cheap shot maybe,true without a doubt:dflam:

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

...or what does this book about 'criminal profiling' have to say about blackmailers?

Sounds a fascinating read.

I might see if I can slip one in my shopping trolley, the next time I see one.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I've just seen Louis Theroux on the one show talking about Jimmy Saville - apparently he kept in touch and met up with him regularly after the documentary, and spoke quite fondly of him, describing him as one of our great eccentrics. Perhaps eccentricity is being mistaken on this thread for something more sinister?

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Doubt very much if the thread starter is mistaking fer summat else, the only mistake hes made is with his username, Vulture would be more appropriate.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Yeh he was an eccentric, he was also close mate of Jonathan King for 25 years.


" King classes veteran TV presenter Jimmy Savile as one of his closest friends - they have known each other for 25 years. Savile once said of him: "He's a sabra. A sabra is an Israeli fruit that's prickly on the outside and all soft and lovely inside. That's Jonathan King." "

Quote by Jimmy Savile from - Who is Jonathan King? | UK news | guardian.co.uk

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Hedgepigs, exactly the same by all accounts. Well apart from them not being fruit, more like frisbees the ones I see. ;)

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Jonathan King has been convicted of offences, Jimmy Savile has not and since he is deceased he never will be. I have said previously that he made me feel uncomfortable but since I cannot substantiate my feelings I am not prepared to discuss them and until something concrete is uncovered Jimmy Savile is/was an innocent person and so does not deserve to have his motivation or behaviour questioned for no reason. I am sure he has family still alive who would be distressed by some of the comments made about him on this thread. Also as I have said previously if you feel so strongly find your proof and use it appropriately rather than using info gleaned via the internet to mount a campaign against him on this forum.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Nothing to do with me Pal! And I will report this posting as off topic and trolling!

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Now then. Now then. Now then.

I was merely adding my thoughts, to earlier posts made in this thread.

Your thread relates to the alleged crimes, a few claim, were carried out by a now deceased popular entertainer.

It was you, yourself, who first brought up the subject of criminal offender profiling.

I know criminality fascinates some, but I don't know an awful lot about it. So the book you mentioned sounds quite interesting.

What makes a person become a child abuser, a rapist, a murderer, or a blackmailer, say?

It would be interesting to know.

As for Jimmy Saville.

Since under the British justice system we are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, and seeing as the man in question is dead, and can't therefore be posthumously tried for any alleged crimes, perhaps he should be allowed to rest in peace.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Jimmy Saville doesn't now have the chance to face his accusers.

Having passed away.

What we do know, as fact, is that he raised an awful lot of money for various charities.

Which made a real difference, to the lives of a vast number of very sick people.

That's something we at least know to be true.

Unlike these scurrilous rumours.

I guess there's something in that old saying, about not speaking ill of the dead.

As someone might just do it to those who did.

When they're trying to rest in their grave.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Ya Rindi, Savile raised millions for charity and worked tirelessly for disadvantaged people, just wondering what Birdbrain has ever done for his fellow man, besides start scurrilous threads like this one, I think he's such a looser that he likes to be confrontational just to gain attention.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Put yer shirt back on,when yer tantrums oer.:rolleyes:Your post aint about the thread subject "Jimmy Saville", so report yerself as well birdbrain.:rolleyes:

There were a lot of us about in the 70s:D

Whatever the truth may be, Jimmy Savile's friends aren't coming across as a particularly trustworthy or likeable bunch. It's like being defended by Steptoe senior.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I expect that the documentary due to be aired on Wednesday will be the tip of the iceberg type of revelation.

I don't think that the many other rumours and allegations will ever be investigated because too many 'high profile' people would be implicated.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I expect better from you Margaret, ITV is point scoring here.
Since when have you taken mainstream TV or even the Press seriously, you are always telling us to look at obscure websites that 'tell the truth '

Back on topic, regardless of what he did or did not do, why does the detail come out now?
If the police investigated him several years ago and did not prosecute, then maybe it was through a lack of evidence.

It's rather awkward to defend yourself when you are dead

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Could have been fear? Victims tried to forget about it but find they are haunted by it! Very difficult to go to the police and complain about someone who is supposed to be a pillar of society and in the 70's and 80's the police were very biggotted about these issues like rape and often ridiculed women or people who complained about such issues.

This morning on the Wright Stuff (Channel 5) they are discussing the issue of Jimmy Saville.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I don't buy that, Johnathon King, Michael Jackson both were very high profile and yet people found the courage.

As I said, it is easy to knock someone once they are dead.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Yes it is easier, and that's why they waited.
My version of 'high profile' differs from yours.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Just watching this program the Wright Stuff on it, apparently people like fellow DJ Paul Gambaccini and Esther Rantzen say there were always rumours but people didn't want to believe it? That is what they are saying - why say it now?

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I'm with you here BG, marvelous that these so called "victims" now have the strength to come forward just a year after his death but kept stum for 30 years

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Interesting point on the Wright Stuff, regarding the allegations made against John Leslie. Very similar.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

How come all the papers are reporting that during an interview in 2009 that Jimmy Savile - seemed to support Gary Glitter...

Jimmy Savile was interviewed by detectives under caution in 2007 over claim of abuse at children's home in 1970s | Mail Online

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

It is alleged that he pimped boys from children's homes for two very high profile politicians - he 'fixed it' for people who daren't let him face prosecution.

Tell yo what this Jimmy Saville was one hell of a guy wielding so much influence, why the hell was he never Prime Minister:eek:

To find yourself in that wonderland position recieving some much adulation being on TV all the time, around all these young people - does funny things to people...especially back in the 60's and 70's! :)

Might have missed it but can't remember him ever having political leanings one way or the other:rolleyes:

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

The TV documentary seems to be concentrating on his alleged abuse of under age girls.

I do not expect it will even mention Haut de la Garenne and boys.

Well I'll be disappointed if such turns out to be true, for once I'd love the authorities to find that someone accused in this way, actually was the way he always seemed to be, strange but generous.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I actually think there's somebody who has seen an opportunity to make a quick buck myself

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I don't think It's true, agree with JaySay.

Unrelated, but I was lucky enough to meet Jimmy a couple of times. He was at my Grandfather's funeral. Found him lovely to be around.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I do not know if its true or not, would hope it aint. What i can't quite grasp is in the last 20 yrs or so we have become a Lets make a claim society, Yet they aint coming outa the woodwork until now?? very odd to me.:confused:

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

But if that was true, why wait till he's dead? Surely they had more chance of getting something if he was still alive because they could get him to court. Can they bring a case against someone who is dead?

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Thats what i don't get?:confused: Why wait until he aint around? Theres quite a few possibilities fer that un.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Believe me they will be getting plenty of financial rewords, tabloid newspapers and even ITV are not backward at coming forward when it comes to paying for these stories, so where money is concerned why let the truth get in the way of a good paper selling or viewer rating story:rolleyes:

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I knew of similar allegations 40 years ago. A friend of mine (Barrister and later Crown Court Recorder) lived in the same block of flats in Manchester as Jimmy Savile, and commented on the number of very young girls who visited Savile's flat. There is a similar allegation in a letter in today's Mail by someone who had seen Savile fondling young girls in a cafe in Manchester. He remarked on it to a waiter who said "Oh, is he at it again?".

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

He says She says, why didn't these people come forward at the time especially a Barrister, now that is criminal if he saw this and did nothing about it

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Prosecuting the dead has been practiced in the past, but now only happens in Russia
JURIST - Forum:Prosecuting the Dead

So, despite some previously abandoned police investigations being reopened, it is not possible for the courts to 'pass judgement'.

For some people - no conviction equals no guilt.
For others - the volume of testimony will be enough to form an opinion,
and some who don't give a damn either way.

Whichever category you consider yourself to be in, do not abuse the persons who have decided differently from you.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

That's a good point - there are so many talking loud now, well why didn't they do something back then? :confused: Especially a Barrister who's career could not be damaged by Savile in the same way someone in Radio or TV could as Savile was a big shot in the media.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

You missed out the people of the
No smoke without fire who needs firm evidence, I like a good rumour, he/she must be guilty persuasion.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

No Margaret you discuss the issue's talk about them then decide that I was right in the first place, easy really:D

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Thats why stories of this type just don't sit to well with me and never will, in a court of law you have a right of reply and your guilt has to be proved beyond a reasonable doubt. In the muck raking press you don't get that chance and they're safe from being sued for libel if your "victim" is dead:(

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

This was insufficent evidence to found a conviction for anything. There was no complaint by any of the girls, and no other evidence.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

But if the figure of women keeps going up then I would think that would tip the scales because if it does keep going up then they are not all going to get big pay days off it and the more that come forward the less they are going to get paid.

There have been 2 incidents so far when Savile was alive in which he was questioned under caution by the Police about a complaint from a woman and also the Haut de la Garenne situaition. He first claimed he never been there but latter admitted that he had. He also took legal action against the Sun for printing something he didn't like.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Of course there are also the he/she must be guilty by association brigade to be considered, they won't just think he is guilty, but anyone that was friends or a fan, 'must have known and are just as bad'.

Before Garry Glitter was exposed for what he was, a very good female friend of mine used to dress up as him and do charity gigs singing do you want to be in my gang.
Of course after he was exposed she stopped doing it.
She had been a fan but was no longer. She worked at a place employing mainly women, for sometime afterwards she would get nasty anonymous letters left at her work station and sent to her home. Making rather nasty suggestions that she must have known what he was like and did she send him pictures of her children?
Some really sick people out there.
:(

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

So best to say nowt? That don't sit well wi me for a barrister, They don't say nowt in a court of law.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

So now it has been screened and those of you who have concerns will have watched.

I said in an earlier post that I expected that only the tip of the iceburg would be seen - and it was so.

The allegations of necrophilia at Leeds hospital morgue, and the procuring/pimping of boys in Jersey and Surrey are seemingly ignored.

As such this 'revelation' appears to be a damage limitation excercise - to supply the public with enough to digest in order to sicken them, whilst more atrocious stuff will never see the light of day.

It will soon be yesterday's chip wrappers and the still living guilty will breathe a sigh of relief.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Whilst it may or may not be correct, Might have known yeh would know more Margaret.:D

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Well she obviously knows more than me too cashy, I'd never any intention of watching a one side program anyway

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Lets not forget Jay, that Margaret has sources of information that are better than ITV, after all she keeps telling us the Mainstream TV companies are lying...
She seems to want it both ways, obviously they aren't lying about Sir Jim.

I have a friend that watches all that stuff. :D though hes not as bad as that user "life" that we had here a while ago :)

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

When I woke up this morning, I felt mildly sick after that program.

Fact is Mr Savile is clearly heard supporting Gary Glitter, now that is dodgy for a start, he's basically saying that Glitter didn't do anything wrong other than get caught.

Statements or stories have been told to Newsnight while Mr Savile was still alive and they chose to ignore these claims.

Also there are more women coming forward since that program was shown.

Fact is he was in the TV, Radio business he was exposed to the celebrity of it all, main guy on Top of the Pops! Yet if you believe the official story he never got married or involved with woman in a formal way. i.e. got married or had long term relationships with girls or women so that makes one wonder...

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I agree about the Glitter thing no question, The fact though they have ignored whilst still alive, I find harder, it says more like they hadn't enough evidence.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Tell you what I noticed from the off that all references to him were as 'Savile'....if this had been a positive program it would have been 'Jim' or 'Sir Jim'...score one for the marketing psychologists of ITV.

There are claims made by chancers/ people with mental issues on a daily basis against 'the famous'.

You can take any soundbite, written comment etc.. out of context and apply it accordingly.

As for more people coming forward...Russell Brand, Jonathon Ross phone call to Andrew Sachs...on the night 5 complaints....reported the next day in the press...500 complaints...one week later 5000 complaints...go figure

Lets take this further...his peers must have known....so guilty by collusion..Noel Edmonds, DLT, Ed Stewart, Tony Blackburn and one of his critics Paul Gambcini etc..etc..etc..

And if we are talking about great British eccentrics who hide behind celebrity..Cliff Richard.. apart from a couple of short term flings with Una Stubbs, Sue Barker and Olivia Newton John, never married, low profile (except at xmas), he's a god botherer, almost everyone dislikes him/takes the pee out of him..but he's revered by the media and pretty much untouchable.

I was particularly sickened by Ester Rantzen doing a Richard Attenborough impression at the end, with her crocodile tears and cliches.

I'm devils advocating here because my head says he did these things, and I'm genuinely sad because although I thought he was a nutjob, I also thought he was a good guy

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Now we know why he was always making Tarzan noises!

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I think the sad thing is people actually watched this crap, I may have watched this program if it had have been made 2 or 3 years ago, I agree with Guinness, the media light the fire and it burns out of control, lets face it even today you start a rumour about a minor incident and by the time it gets to the other end of town its a murder, people always add their two penneth

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

When I saw that program I had mixed feelings. At first I thought it was a bit of a witch-hunt and the claims made was all hearsay by a bunch of dodgy characters. Also the sense that here was a 70's icon that we all had a image of him being this kind eccentric DJ doing good works for charity and that was being decimated.

Again the question is why didn't anyone do something about it? If they all knew.

Janet Street Porter was on Question Time last night and she said she'd heard rumours in the 80's and so on. Fact is well never know 100% and it will always be a case of making your own mind up - however as I write this on the Wright Stuff it's just been mentioned there are now 40 women who have come forward!

In line with this there was a prog about Coronation Street, telling the story of when a story featured Bet Lynch getting stranded in Spain - 1,000's of people sent money in to Granada TV for her to pay for a return ticket back!

Which indicates that TV has a strange effect on people for them to send money in for fantasy character. In context of this - again it could be the effect of television?

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Well you certainly got that right about TV, I mean it was even mentioned in Parliament when the Free Deirdre campaign was running on corry and how many times have you heard about actors being attacked in the street, being hit with little old women wielding handbags because of a storyline. As for 40 women coming forward maybe they see it as a chance for their 15 minutes of fame;)

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

yeh but a fact of life is after every high publicity murder oer 40 always confess to it, so really tells us nowt.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Mmm well I just came across this article at...

Jimmy Savile's affections laid bare by...Jimmy Savile? | Times Opinion on Tumblr

This actually comes out of his auto-biography from 1974, so his attitude does seem very strange and to indicate he had dodgy leanings. Sum up the evidence for yourself! :rolleyes:

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

:dflam:
I wonder why this has become relevant now and didn't at the time:rolleyes:Quoting passages from anything is always quite difficult and may mean something entirely different

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

The link I provided in post #167 provided that autobiography quote, and another -
"Let me tell you about the fun part of the charity deal. I got a call one day from the chairman of a local council. He'd got a new idea for the annual mayoral ball and wanted to turn it into a big youth dance. and would I come? For years the affair had been just a bit stuffy and only attracted a couple of hundred locals. He wanted 2,000 and did I have any ideas? Sure I had. Good ideas are my strong point. I will come, to Orley in Yorkshire it was, if you will arrange for me to sleep in a tent up the local hillside with another tent alongside with six girls to sleep there as my bodyguards!

My demands really put the dance on the map and 2,000 tickets went like hot cakes. My ultimatum of "no tents, no girls, no me" meant the council had to go through with it."

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

If we were seeing Quots from Jim Bowens life story people would me rolling about laughing:rolleyes:

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

That is shocking that he actually said that in his auto-biography and no body asked questions back then - very odd? :confused::eek:

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

Judging by the media and some of the posts on here, maybe we should do away with Due Process and go straight to sentancing, anybody got some rope to string him up

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

On question time last night Janet Street Porter said she knew about the rumours but said nothing...when asked why, she said she would not have been believed...my response to that is that she must bear some of the responsibility if this man did molest young girls.
Janet Street Porter has , in the past, been outspoken, but on this occasion she chose to stay silent.

The man is dead. There is nothing that anyone can do to change what happened in the past......personally I am more interested in the fact that the BBC defrauded governments out of taxes, which should have been paid into the communal pot by TV stars(refusing to employ them unless they took out tax avoidance contracts)..........is there no legal means to sue the BBC for the money?
Their actions were, if not exactly criminal, highly dubious.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

What about all the things he has said? The 2 quotes that suggest he had runaway girl in his flat over night and knew he'd get away with it. The one about having 6 girls in a tent. And the taped conversation of him backing Gary Glitter, insinuating that Glitter had only had a "few films for his own use!" All suggest he had unsavoury tastes but was clever enough to cover his tracks.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

What age were these girls? Did it happen? What proof do any of you have? Perhaps like the rest of us that liked GG, he was shocked to find that the guy was like that? I don't know you don't know, let's just throw another witch on the fire whilst we discuss this as sensible persecutors.

If that had been me...and a nurse took no notice, I would have asked for the payphone to be brought to my bed and I would have telephoned the police myself.

It is no damn good bringing it up now the man is dead...it helps no-one, not the (alleged) victims or anyone else. It is just being turned into a media circus.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

This media circus is a 'limited hangout'
Limited hangout - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If the general public do not 'let the matter rest' there is a possibility that previous cover ups concerning child abuse will be re-examined.

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

I can recall a certain doctor oer Hyde way, who many thought was credible, yeh aint said why yeh say this retired nurse is?

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

She is an elderly retired professional who has nothing to gain by speaking out, and maybe will receive verbal abuse from persons who still regard themselves as his fans.

This is stating the obvious - but you did ask

That does not make her credible.

Re: Sir Jimmy Saville
 

If this is some sort of attempt to smear the Queen, who is popular with many in your country and in mine, it is pretty lame. As far as I am aware, it is the U.K. government who puts forward the names of those who are to be honored. If I'm wrong about this, feel free etc. It's not like there's a Round Table any more.:rolleyes: And from what I read ... and my comprehension level is, at least, average ... there are numerous allegations agaist the puissant knight, but nothing which can be called "proof". Not to mention that he just might not show up in court to defend himself. If he does, then that will be newsworthy.

Re: Sir Jimmy Saville
 

Unfortunately Operation Ore was discredited by a spanner thrown in the works due to police incompetence - some innocent men were charged on the basis that their credit card numbers were held by a dodgy porn website.

Some of those card numbers were obtained by fraud. The police barged in with both feet, not discriminating beforehand which were real voyeurs and which were setup red herrings.

The Operation Ore was abandoned by a D notice issued by Blair

don't get me started on the UK government :D you may be right (sounds plausible) it was just a open question.

As for "proof" the allegations would suggest he spent his life building up a front (chairty work etc) to abuse young girls...my comprehension level is also at least average and the allegations would suggest Jimbo was down with da kids but not in a good way ;)
