Was he or not!

Freddie Star is also now being implicated.

An adult needs to control himself no matter what his urges are and I think that applies to paedophile or playboy alike. You know your boundaries and should never cross them. I recall my math teacher being given the boot because he slept with a student. He had no idea she was a student at the school. But she was 15 and in a nightclub. He was wrong, but she wasn't entirely blameless. Clearly she was sexually aware and looking for a good time. Not really a victim of anything. Anyone could really become a child abuser in that setting.

I keep saying that Savile is likely guilty, but I just don't think it is totally one sided and the fact that NOTHING was ever done in his lifetime just seems really quite absurd to me. The latest brain damage molestation allegation seems a bit much. What next? Savile raped Orville the Duck because he was turned on by the nappy? That I would be concerned about as Orville was nothing more than a toddler.

Brendan O'Neill: There is Something Horribly Medieval About This Posthumous Pummelling of Jimmy Savile

Good article and I agree with most of the points made.

Saville's dead, cant defend himself and the women coming forward should just leave it, indeed they're cowards

That's pretty much what the guy said in a round the houses why use ten when you can use a thousand words kinda way.

Great article. Nothing you cant get from any number of facebook or twitter rants by the 'If he'd done that to me!!!!!' brigade.

I agree with miles that it's absurd this all came out after his death. The guy was a has-been, as far as TV was concerned, for 20 years. It's not like you're bringing down a member of the Royal family.

It's a shame the victims were afraid to break their silence before it mattered to him. He fucked off as Sir Jimmy the much loved eccentric philanthropist. Shame.

Gandi why are you differentiating between those that carried sleeping with him and the other victims that did not. The sick git ruined lives and abused his position. The rot goes into many organisations and there may be others who are a live that could now be caught and brought to justice.

Shame his victims can't just shrug it off
