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:

Errr, I'm not sure about that, the Colonel would have to answer for himself.
― Fields of Fat Henry (Tom D.), Thursday, 10 September 2015 11:12 (ten years ago)
No, I was referring to Jimmy Pursey being cautioned for indecent assault.

Well, I wasn't sure myself till I did a bit of googling.

I think the Walton Hop itself is interesting because it's become one of those 'dark places' that seems to regularly reoccur within British society - Dolphin Square, Stoke Mandeville, Cromwell Road, Rillington Place etc

This book leapt out at me at work this morning:
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51C-ZwClV-L._SX332_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg
Best described as a sort of freewheeling account of how Our Jim's deep Christian faith affects his approach to life, the opening sentences of the chapter, "How Do I Cope With Sex" caught my attention:
The word 'sex' is like the word 'love'. It means differing things to different people. Sex at its worst is corruption, as when young people might be corrupted to provide sex
Still available on Amazon, folks!

Interesting piece behind the FT paywall on the growing number of people over the age of 60 in prison, partly due to the prosecution of historical offences, and the impact it's having on prison life:

In 2015, the number of over-60s in jail topped 4,000 for the first time on record, more than double the figure 10 years ago. It is the fastest-growing age group in custody.

Fred Talbot jailed for four years for sex offences on school trips to Scotland
Ian Brown gave testimony. Funnily enough, the ex-Fall drummer Simon Wolstencroft mentioned going on that same camping trip that the case was based around, but doesn't mention Fred or anything relating to what happened.

As an American I had only the vaguest sense who jimmy saville was and what he did, decided to correct that last year by reading In Plain Sight and I can't say I'm 'glad' I did, but he definitely fills a unique niche in the historical beast cabinet

A company has brought out a card game called ‘British Nonces’ similar to Top Trumps where you compete using cards with well known perverts, paedophiles and killers as the subject. The roster of 52 includes the likes of Jimmy Savile, Gary Glitter, Rolf Harris and late MP Cyril Smith. Categories for the game are as follows: physical threat, slipperiness, cockiness, offences, remorse and ‘nonceoriety’.
