Jimmy Saville is still alive...

the scale of complicity around this is quite staggering.

Dear Jan Moir, have you not fucked off yet, you snivelling excuse for a human being?

P.S. it is easy to understand why those who
were molested by Savile are now coming
forward to speak out. One understands how
the domino effect of others gives courage,
how there is comfort in a crowd.
I have less sympathy with celebrities such as
Sandi Toksvig and Liz Kershaw, now loudly
claiming long-ago molestations and abuse at
the BBC. Hardly shrinking violets, they did
nothing about it at the time and still do not
name their tormentors. What’s the point?

I thought they *did* do something at the time...

It's Jan Moir - she'll have no truck with your 'facts' and 'reading comprehension' and such.

did a few stories on this and my boss had a word after one and joked about me picking the pic that made him look most like a stereotypical paedo. had to explain that every single pic of him looks like this.

Yeah when I clicked on this thread I assumed it was a comedian dressed as some sort of bizarre character but then I realized that was just the way he really looked.

who is the 4th tv star?

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/9603136/High-profile-soap-star-linked-to-sex-abuse-claims-at-BBC-as-scandal-over-Jimmy-Savile-grows.html

i wonder if it's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Adamson who played Len Fairclough on coronation street? It's the right era and I don't know if there were any other UK soaps at that time.

awww i thought we had a nice bit of libel there but it turns out the cunt has carked it

do we a have a 'libel the dead' thread

i remember that court case with peter adamson.

and so do i.

I got the impression from that article it wasn't an established soap star but a tv star who appeared in one. Suggesting a short stint or perhaps even a cameo.

i can think of one huge star from the mid 70s saville/glitter who went on to appear in eastenders

singer he was

mid 70s saville/glitter *era*

we talking green cross code here?

marc bolan it is

if this spreads from the BBC to pop/rock stars of the 70s for underage sex there's gonna be noone left with a reputation.

All the soaps have had famous 70s tv stars or pop stars in them. Almost all of them will be libelled until the truth comes out.

we talking green cross code here?

i can't figure this one out, are you talking about the darth vader guy?

cos i must have missed his big hits in the 70s

I would say he's talking about The Man With The Glove.

and wig and a tv star wife

and not darth vader

All the soaps have had famous 70s tv stars or pop stars in them

Read that as 'soap stars have had' and was all, "Well, yes."

I would say he's talking about The Man With The Glove.

oh right! was thinking of someone else, didn't know that glove guy had been in soaps until now, eeek

I actually used to live 5 doors along in the same street as Mr Glove and his Glamorous Soap Star Wife, and I never saw any noncing going on. I did see some pretty shocking syrup action going on, mind.

it's not Dav1d £ssEx ffs. they would not describe him as a soap star. plus it would really taint my regular listenings to "rock on", so, NO.

actually they don't describe him as a soap star so it's possible. but i hope it's not him.

you should try listening to "i'm the leader of the gang (i am)"

There's another glove, and twitter searches are a bit creepy:

***** ******** came to my kids school for the gold awards, disappointed he wasn't wearing his leather glove!

Now they're saying Jeremy Beadle may have had a small hand in it.

xp Ha! That's the glove i assumed people were talking about. Not that there have ever been rumours about him, iirc.

Mike Reid's dead, right? We can libel him if we want.

Have I Got News For You; very interesting tonight.

come on, timmy mallet, no trial needed, if savile is the entertainment paed jesus then mallet is saint peter.

was praying the other night that Noel Edmonds gets outed

Dear Jesus,

Please please please please fix it for me for Noel Edmonds to be outed as a nonce.

(ftr I think it's incredibly unlikely - out of all the DJs on that 1977 Radio Times cover, Edmonds is the least nonce-like. A huge womanising creep, yes, but not a pedo.)

i wonder if it's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Adamson who played Len Fairclough on coronation street? It's the right era and I don't know if there were any other UK soaps at that time.

"LEN STOLE MY SUNSHINE" = a headline that can be used if this story gets another airing

back then there was Crossroads and Emmerdale Farm

If it was Peter Adamson they would just publish his name since he was dead

They might want more than one source for the stories, though, even with a dead star like Adamson or TV-comedian-turned-soap-actor-and-close-friend-of-Freddie-Starr Mike Read.

Reid. Not Mike Read, obviously.

And HIGNFY, back on form I thought last night. Needs to be like that more often.
