Thread Name: Obit: RIP Sir Jimmy Savile of BBC [2011]
Subject: RE: Jimmy Savile :-( UK disc jockey
His nephew was on the BBC News last night, and while I do pity his very ashamed and stunned family, it's hard to believe that they didn't see that he was at the very least weird and strange. His nephew actually hoped that people would not forget his 'good side', but that's a vain hope IMO. If a man was a total monster regarding abuse of young people and children, you're hardly going to say, "But wasn't he a wonderful disc-jockey!" etc, are you? I expect even the Yorkshire Ripper was quite nice at home, but please...!
