Same. I don't just think that is hindsight talking: there was always something odd about him. That said, I did enjoy the programme as did millions of people!Yeah I used to feel uncomfortable watching fix it as a kid… kids can sense these things!
I think it’s like a spidey sense that kids have. I remember having a really disturbing dream about Rolf Harris when I was too young to understand about things like that- my little brain must have registered that he was sinister. I just couldn’t enjoy Rolf’s cartoon club again after that!Same. I don't just think that is hindsight talking: there was always something odd about him.

My mum encouraged me to write to the old perv and I agreed to if I didn’t have to sit on his knee. I remember feeling scared and thankfully it never went anywhere.

Both brothers were. All three of them.Has anyone else ever wondered if JS’ father might have abused him? He was apparently very reluctant to speak about him and would always change the subject if he was ever questioned about his father in interviews.
I wonder this especially because JS’ brother was also accused of similar behaviour (sexual abuse of children and women) in the 70’s. Not that it would make a difference in terms of JS being a massive, evil twit but it does make me wonder about what went on in that household.
Not doubting you Dolly, just wondering where the source for this was? Genuinely.Both brothers were. All three of them.
Never knew that! Even more sinister.Both brothers were. All three of them.
Very possible. He was the youngest as well, I believe. It’s very messed up and not to go all armchair psychologist but it might even explain his general, overly-weird persona.also possible the older brothers abused him?
I think the near-death experiences- pneumonia as an infant, mine explosion as a teen, possibly contributed.Very possible. He was the youngest as well, I believe. It’s very messed up and not to go all armchair psychologist but it might even explain his general, overly-weird persona.
I've never thought of a link but you could be right...same with Scofe and his brother. Thank god cases like this are rare but it does make you wonder when there's 2 in the same household.Has anyone else ever wondered if JS’ father might have abused him?

Yes, very good points. I wonder if they caused any sort of developmental changes. Apart from being an abuser, he was such a weird person.I think the near-death experiences- pneumonia as an infant, mine explosion as a teen, possibly contributed.
Yes I’d wondered about PS too when the brother thing came about. Without excusing what any of them did, it’s still very sad if true.I've never thought of a link but you could be right...same with Scofe and his brother.

Many serial killers have had a knock on the head and an abusive upbringin.Yes, very good points. I wonder if they caused any sort of developmental changes. Apart from being an abuser, he was such a weird person.

'Johnny sounded, dressed and behaved so much like his brother'
Alex Murray accused Johnny Savile, who died in 1998, of inviting her to sit on his couch, locking the door, and raping herwww.mylondon.news
'Vince Savile, the former celebrity’s brother, founded Radio Glamorgan, a community station based at Cardiff Royal Infirmary in 1967.' I think is the brother that had links to the navy too.

It was suggested the sisters kept quiet because they benefited from having him as a brother and he looked after their Mum 'very well'. If anything happened to James, then their Mum would be up tit creek.So disturbing. Was there ever any info on any of his sisters?
