Jimmy Savile #2

New to Tattle Life? Click "Order Thread by Most Liked Posts" button below to get an idea of what the site is about:
We watched The Reckoning this week. Thought it was absolutely brilliant, Steve Coogan did a job and a half portraying Saville.
Really struggled to get through it though, it was a very hard and uncomfortable watch. Debated whether to go back and finish it. Hubby in particular had to get up and leave the room at points.

Growing up, born mid 80s, JS always freaked me out. Always. I hated Jim’ll Fix It with his white He-Man hair. Hubby on the other hand, born late 70s, wrote into him twice asking for stuff

He certainly used his work at St James and Stoke Mandeville to access more victims. Atone my a.
Plus visits to Pinderfields and Haut de La Garene. At least half his victims aren’t here to tell their story IMO. He prayed on the weak.

Yes agree- I watched & he definitely only did the charity work to gain access to more victims! He never atoned for anything he did EVER

There's a clip of Jimmy Savile and Steve Coogan together 35 years ago on the James Whale TV show - it's about 2.52 hours in.

I came across this post, which is on the Digital Spy forums, which was made by a poster (on another external forum) just after JS died, very interesting and no doubt shocking for the other posters to read, who were expressing their condolences… scroll down to Twiggster, 10 pm.

I'm sure people have said similar before - but, who cut the master key for him, who allowed him access, who swept it under the carpet?

And who made him "boss of Broadmoor"?

This all seems unbelievable when you look back on it. And these were supposedly enlightened times, not that long ago, really.

There were other people enabling this creep but nobody talks about them or investigates why. At least, it seems this way. I'd hardly call Jimmy Savile an intimidating personality, he was pretty much a cartoon character with a self-aggrandising nature. A bit of a Billy bull.

The cult of celebrity does sway and impress some people, though. I mean, look at P Diddy today in the Daily Mail and all the adoring crowds (WTF): Diddy fulfills $1M donation pledge to alma mater Howard University as he surprises students for homecoming | Daily Mail Online

I can’t get over him being born on Halloween even though it doesn’t really mean anything.

I bet bet anything HE, Savile, made himself boss and no one dared say no.🤢

Quite a few people jumping in after Twiggster's post with snide comments. Reminds me of a certain forum member on here and their nasty responses to my comments re Brand over the years.

Savile and Brand are psychopaths - and I'm sure that both feel that their charity work (Savile) and being a spiritual guru (Brand) cancelled/cancels out their crimes.

The reckoning was brilliant.
Why was he holding a roll of £50 notes when he died and was that true? Was the finger crossing definitely true as well?

An excerpt from John Le Mesurier's autobiography, it's a chapter added after his death by his wife, Joan.

I wonder if it was for, as Joan tries to phrase it, his irritation at a train journey taking longer than it should have (given Savile's advertising stuff for British Rail) or if there was more to it...

A lot's said about Andrew Windsor and his links with Jeffrey Epstein but nothing about the king and his links with Savile
