Watched it too S 'n P - excellent programme.It goes to prove that throughout history good men who have stood by and done nothing in the face of evil have helped it prevail.

I missed that S&P but will try catch it on I player..If you enjoyed that, you might enjoy this.This is a cautionary talehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cCRN1flMOkI first saw it in way back in 1989, a very powerful program indeed, especially the ruins of the Wolfs Lair and Carl Orff's Carmina Burana at 00.49 secondshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_de ... t=48sMakes the hair stand up on the back of your neck!

I was in Morecambe yesterday, and saw a copy of Jimmy Savile's now notorious 1974 autobiography.It was a hardback copy as well.Looking at the prices people are currently asking for the paperback edition of it on ebay,I missed a trick not buying it!

The 'Report' has:-"..collated all the (key word) >ALLEGATIONS< against Savile irrespective of where the (wait for it) >OFFENCES< took place.."?The report is called 'Giving Victims a Voice'. The inquiry has not challenged any accusation it received.No one dare challenge it. The NSPCC has enhanced it's Fiefdom. The Police with Yewtree have moved from dull indifference to action.Still nothing new though.But 214 "incidents" (allegations?) have now been formally recorded as "crimes".Does this enhance someone's detection rate/target by clearing up 214 notional, unproved crimes.Sounds like a lazy quick fix and wants to be nice.

An inquiry which grants the status of victim purely on a person's say-so lacks the objectivity required to discover the truth. The police (and members of the NSPCC) who have produced this report are unfit to investigate any crime whatsoever.

James and Jogon-Good luck with the 'Savile is innocent' campaign you seem to want to start guys, but I wont be joining.....    
there are 10 types of people in the world. Those that understand ternary, those that don't and those that think this a joke about the binary system.

Drapesy - please allow others the courtesy of their opinion (as we do you)Far from it drapesy !That's not really the point at all.The point is akin to the current 'reality' that =not a single Liverpool fan was 1. drunk 2.violent or 3. attacked the 2 ambulancemen (I knew) trying to revive a dying man at Hillsboro.If I dropped Yewtree a line to say he collared me on cross country in Roundhay Park (he didn't) then there'd be 215 crimes.Only there wouldn't. Or do you say there would?
