And the BBC AND NHS knew about him. It was an open secret.

I remember seeing him on TV in the UK back in the 1980s. Thought he looked creepy then.

When I was younger I was disturbed by the unflattering allusions to homosexuality and perversion in Agatha Christy novels. I didn’t realize she was reflecting upper class Britain accurately.

The freak caused a lot of damage and was not punished in this life which is a sign that God left him alone and watched him fall into the abyss screaming.

There used to be a joke they would tell that both Thatcher & Savile screwed miners/minors.

The BBC is the last organization that should be talking about Savile. They created the monster.

Johnny’s a good guy. I really felt for him losing his wife, who he took care of for years when she got Alzheimers.

Could have an “Archie was right” thread…. Educational.

He was not hiding. Everyone at the BBC down to the lowest intern know that he was a pervert and a rapist. But only middle class Americans care about things like that.

The British media class are above caring about such things.

If the BBC were privately owned, they would have been sued out of existence.
