    Fair enough, but money raising is rarely ever enough to make someone a legend.

    He made some money for charity off of being a TV presenter, but Jimmy Saville is clearly very overrated.

    He never actually did anything. I could play tiddlywinks for charity, but nobody would ever regard someone as the tiddlywinks charity raiser.

    He was a weird old guy who smoked cigars and wore shell suits.

    He never made albums nor wrote great literature. I just don't get him.

    I see nothing great about that. I hate attacking a dead man, but he just seems incredibly tacky and had no real skills nor anything to say.

    i heard a rumour there was once a bloke you didn't launch a cynical critical attack on.

    I think it was just a rumour....

    True and I actually have nothing against Saville who was probably an alright fellow, but I just don't understand the platitudes. Just a minor celeb who died. He is no different to Anne Diamond in that regard, probably a lovely person, but has made no real difference. I always regard difference as producing or creating something and raising money for charity is quite easy if you are a minor celebrity.

    If he had made a classic album or made a speech I would care, but he has never done any of that.

    Exactly, a very weird man. Maybe quite generous, but a seriously odd type.

    Never really did anything.
