Jimmy Saville is still alive...

It might have been Jimmy Pursey.

I have a phone number in my phone which belonged to a friend of mine before me, which said friend claims to be the actual phone number of Jimmy Savile. It doesn't work, but my pal swears he has talked to Jimmy Savile on it in the past. There's a story of why he would at least theoretically have his phone number, but I can't remember what it is.

Is he a mortician?

haha, no.

says he's a beautician...

...not that I understand what you mean at all, oh no, hello lawyers!

man number four in "blur my face plz", um... grin.

Saville breaking the law I see.

He's got skates on as well

I thought Sutcliffe was Adam Buxton for a second.

That's a very strange handshake, btw.

Where is frank's thumb?

(Surely not freemasons!)

I've gotta rep for the Ripper keeping his trademark hair and beard all these years, instead of shaving and getting a bit of an easier life maybe.

Shame on you Frank, whats next..shake hands with the suicide bombers..???

I can't fathom why Jimmy Saville would want to hang around with someone famous for murdering women and carelessly dumping the bodies around Yorkshire

This photo was taken 18 years ago, he might have got rid of the beard by now. Also Saville probably not breaking the law.

Grim Gordon Brown has put his foot down and said that Sutcliffe will never be released.

Great! We can ignore all expert opinions, stop hiring doctors and professionals and allow the tabloids to dictate Government policy. The same tabloids who pay 13-year-old criminals, put them on their front pages and encourage others to do the same.

Which "13-year-old criminals"?

ALL OF THEM!!!

After chatting to Ronnie, Big Frank spotted the Yorkshire Ripper leaning back on a window ledge.

Damn, Broadmoor was one long party back in the 90s.

the romance of the prison system

the horror of realising that '18 years ago' is now 1991

Why do all the posters on The Sun HYS think that Sutcliffe has never stood trial? Very odd.

Beard hides scars from when he was attacked in Parkhurst.

Great bit of publicity there for Capital Gold.

Sutcliffe is travelling through time on a magical island!

While also working as a traffic warden...

apparently at first the guys followed police directions to sutcliffe and got stuck in a blind alley in wearside

Just sayin.

damn

Still so.

He was on the 1976 TOTP last week introducing Eddie and the Hot Rods, insisting that they should go to number one. Bless him, for once!

Is Jimmy Hill still alive?????

That's a chin scratcher.

When Saville does go I'm sure he'll be happy where he ends up. I've heard he loves the dead.

JH xD.

well.. supposedly not now.

blood on your hands Louis Theroux

(xp) lol, perfect.

I don't think he's on anything like the same Caligula-like scale but he does constantly remind me of Boris Johnson, a similar confidence trickster using TV, media, sentimentality, charity, 'eccentricity' and a similar 'yes, I actually am a gangster' double-bluff

hatherley drawing some interesting + otm parallels here

Also, shit hairstyles

Should read that book but don’t know if I could handle it presently

I think i'm going to dive in, lol a month after finishing vol 2 of Ullrich's Hitler biog!

the dan davies book is p good tho -- unless there's a updated post #metoo edition -- it felt like he was pulling some of his punches (at least that's what i felt when i read it)

in terms of "in plain sight" saville's own "as it happens" is a good deal grimmer

lol i couldn't even finish the first paragraph of the david hare review, just take this guy's pen away forever plz

delete "tho" which is a relic of this post when written in a different order (take my pen away also)

Nobody give me a pen because it looks to me like tho works fine in that sentence

it implies a qualification of a fellow poster's opinion that i did not intend to make, harmless as it seems

grimmer police

learning since i posted that the book was extremely heavily lawyered which may explain the aspect which frustrates me -- i shd reread it probably

yoikes! I can vaguely remember in the 70's when my my mum was a registered childminder he was the face of registered childminding. I know I'm not making this up because I can clearly remember some govt childminding pamphlet in the house with a pic of a black haired Savile on the cover.

Jerry OTM ... in 1987! nowthennowthen young Billy.

saw sadowitz in a pub in ealing once, rehearsing his tour, and it was one of the funniest things i’ve seen (partly because it definitely wasn’t for a lot of the people there).

then i went to see pretty much exactly the same show at the royal festival hall (bit weird) and it felt offensive and flat.

possibly worth noting i generally loathe comedy and esp stand up comics (numerous notable exceptions aside)

god how pompous. but i just don’t like the whole stand up comedy thing. every fibre of me resists violently.

agree. there's just something cringe about the whole setup. an audience pays to have someone be funny for them. no wonder so many stand-up comics are assholes. i'm not sure why i don't feel this way about theater. the older i get the more my definition of humor turns to spontaneous riffing among friends.

OTM. Jerry is a magician though! I mean, literally a magician.

You'll like this you cunt, not a lot, but you'll like it! tbf he was a much better magician than Paul Daniels and he's often made me laugh than any comedians do.
