Now that all these guys are (presumably) out of their pederasty hey day, who are the new generation of high powered deviants? Or is it something particular to middle aged white men in the 70's and 80's that caused them to act in this way?
Apologies as you've probably touched on that before itt but I'm not looking to delve too deep into this.

Fred Talbot's QC has suggested that Ian Brown's has let his imagination 'run away' from him, when he describes being pupils shown an indecent film by the teacher who engaged in inappropriate chat with them.
"What do you think I get from it?", the star angrily replied. "You don't think I've got better places to be? You're the one being paid to defend him, I'm not.
"You're getting paid to ask questions - I'm not getting paid by anybody."
2.50pmThe defence suggest Ian Brown blames Fred Talbot for the failure of his biology O Level. "I couldn't care less", said the musician.

Freddie Starr loses groping defamation case
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-33477004
Comedian Freddie Starr has lost his High Court claim against Karin Ward, who said he groped her when she was 15.Ms Ward, 56, alleges that the assault took place in 1974 behind the scenes of Jimmy Savile's Clunk Click TV show.Mr Starr, 72, of Studley, Warwickshire, denied the claims and sought damages for alleged slander and libel.Judge Mr Justice Nicol said the case failed because Ms Ward's testimony was found to be true, and because too much time had lapsed.
Savile revelationsThe claim over the eBook related to allegations which Ms Ward had proved were true, the judge also ruled.Ms Ward's solicitor, Helen Morris, said in a statement after the ruling that the allegation about Mr Starr was made during two interviews Ms Ward gave about the sexual abuse at the hands of Jimmy Savile.She said Ms Ward had been abandoned by the two broadcasters who interviewed her and had been treated "disgracefully"."It is particularly egregious for the BBC and ITV/ITN to have done so when Karin Ward put her head above the parapet to speak out about Savile," she said.

Jimmy Pursey is never 86.
― Fields of Fat Henry (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 September 2015 09:38 (eight years ago) link
Hopefully that is a reference to my lengthy theory posted some time ago on the Sham 69 thread where I opined that "Borstal Breakout" is about Jonathan King. I still think it's a valid interpretation.
― everything, Thursday, 10 September 2015 10:10 (eight years ago) link
Actually it was merely a reference to the fact that Pursey is from Hersham, but the plot thickens:
He was a regular attender at the local disco, the 'Walton Hop' at the Playhouse theatre, where he met Jonathan King.

When King was first convicted, Pursey appeared on Newsnight to talk about going to the Walton Hop and encountering King there (don't think he alleged that he'd been abused by King - more that it was the kind of place where all sorts of unsavoury activities occured)

Yeah, remember that one.
― Mark G, Thursday, 10 September 2015 10:54 (eight years ago) link
I thought it was a reference to Jimmy Pursey being done for indecent assault himself tbh.

No, I think Colonel Poo is saying that he thought your previous comment implied Pursey had been 'done' for indecent assault. He hasn't been.
This piece by Jon Ronson on King includes comments from Pursey:

No, I was referring to Jimmy Pursey being cautioned for indecent assault.
