Jimmy Savile (Net Flix )

Re: Jimmy Savile (Net Flix )

Chas!

Chas was class. I liken myself to Chas. Obnoxious little twat. :hehe:

Morph is still going, he’s got a show of his own. Not as good as the days when Tony made him out of clay / plasticine it’s all CGI now.

Re: Jimmy Savile (Net Flix )

If my memory serves me rightly, I also made a disparaging remark about Savile on here and my comment was met with resistance o. here as I was criticising someone who had raised millions for charity.
That was Savile's Trojan Horse, of course.

Croesy (the original) most probably. Saville would be someone he would defend the bearded Tory nonce.

Re: Jimmy Savile (Net Flix )

I could never get my drawings included on his gallery. Sent a few in. Even lied about my age to make it look like I was younger and so my sketches would appear more impressive :hehe:

I remember tracing a part of my drawing to make it better but my cheating never got passed old Tony

Re: Jimmy Savile (Net Flix )

Hang on- Tony harts in the clear right?!

If you think his and Morphs relationship was entirely normal, then thats up to you.

Yeah - Tony Hart was never implicated - I just use him as an example of someone of a similar demographic whom I did like as a kid. Unlike Savile who always had a touch of the skelators about him.

Re: Jimmy Savile (Net Flix )

The best thing about Tony Hart that I can remember is that he (sort of) died twice.
He actually died in about 2009, but several years later news of his death was trending again.

plus something I posted on another messageboard this week;-

"Back in the mid 70s, an uncle of mine who was in the merchant navy, used to stay with us when he was on shore leave and one day there was just me and him in the living room watching the telly when Jimmy Saville came on and my uncle tutted and swore. something which was almost unheard of in the presence of me or my younger brother and sister.

I'd never been a fan of Saville, but only because it's seemed to me that he didn't know a lot about the music he played and was, to an extent, making money under false pretences. I always thought of my uncle as right old square because that's what he was! I couldn't understand how he knew about Jimmy Saville and muttered something like "not a fan then?".

My uncle just said he's a bad man and left it at that, but he'd got my interest and so I kept on at him to tell me what he knew. He still thought of me as a kid, although I must have been something like twenty at the time of the conversation and so what information I got had to be dragged out of him and then I didn't get it all, but he did say Saville had some very dodgy connections in Manchester and parts of Yorkshire. It was what he wouldn't tell me though which I remembered when the story broke about Saville after he died - my uncle, treating me like a ten year old again, had also told me there were other things about Saville he knew that he couldn't tell me at my age. Based on that, I've always suspected that there were an awful, lot of people around who knew exactly what Saville was and it's an absolute disgrace that he never had to face justice during his lifetime."

Not at all shocked by the Savile revelations, then & now...... but what’s this about you posting on another messageboard?:shrug::hehe:

It was a big decision to take because I am acutely aware of the dangers of spreading my talents too thinly :hehe:

Good luck anyone getting beyond this ITK innuendo.

Thanks for the ITK innuendo Bob, I believe you even if others don't

As my comment was a response to your " The evil ones in high places are still out there" so if it wasn't ITK innuendo then who and where are they?

You have never wondered how he got away with it for so long?

Re: Jimmy Savile (Net Flix )

Pobably because at the time of his actions there were people in power who protected him. As per ToBW's post with which I agree.

You explicitly stated that these evil people are still there in high places. Who are they?

"This is a drawing sent in by little Stan Butler, aged 9 of Cardiff" " it's rather detailed, it's of a man named Sam being run over by a bus"

You come across as being a very naïve person.

Re: Jimmy Savile (Net Flix )

Thanks. I think the difference is that I think it possible that there are people of power who in the past may have protected Savile who are still there but I haven't a scoobie whether that is true or not. On the other hand you definitely know that these people are still there because you said so. Given you know so much I just wondered who they are.

Of course you could just be pissing in the wind trying to look clever but that would just be naive of me I guess.
