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

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

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.

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.

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.

For those of you who say that women are speaking out for financial gain - here is credible witness (not victim)
Ex-York nurse saw Jimmy Savile ?molest? patient (From York Press)

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

What makes her credible? do yeh know the woman?:confused:

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

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

re: Allegations about Jimmy Saville: covered up?
 

That does not make her credible.

Have you ever been on jury duty?:D

Sir Jimmy Saville
 

I assume that liz who Acts as the Queen knighted him? I wonder how many other of the queen's knights are pedophiles,rapist etc? :eek:

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.
