Thread Name: Obit: RIP Sir Jimmy Savile of BBC [2011]
Subject: RE: 2011 Obit: RIP Sir Jimmy Savile UK disc jockey
The BBC has just reported they are to be sued by a number of his victims. I am pleased to see more and more brave people are coming forward to expose the extent of his deeds.

I feel the thread title should remain as an example of how people were duped. It shows how many paid their respects to a man who had been questioned by police on more than occasion and a known predator of children by many in the entertainment business, yet they remaine silent allowing him to practice his evil deeds because many felt he was above the law due to his political connections, charitable work and a BBC icon.

I think the news that Gary Glitter is planning a UK comeback tour in the Spring of 2013 to be untimely.
