It seems to get worse Broadcaster Paul Gambaccini has claimed Leeds’s own Sir Jimmy Savile used his charity fundraising work as a lever to prevent his private life being exposed.http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/n ... -1-4979365

I myself don't believe it, why didn't these people come forward when he was alive?

It seems odd that respected broadcasters such as Esther Rantzen and Paul Gambacini didn't speak out earlier if they had concerns...

Remember that old British naval epigram, 'Flog that man!, - but he's dead sir, then flog his kit!' Hope his charities don't get a flogging as a result.

So then, gentlemen, we're all agreed ?Jimmy Savile is innocent.Glad that's all sorted.
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.

I myself don't believe it, why didn't these people come forward when he was alive? Whether it's true or not, even if he were still here and he was guilty (which I neither believe or disbelieve) it's hardly likely he'd readily admit it.
