Ha! Saville was friendly with so many of the rich and powerful, his grinning visage next to multiple other destructive people can be used ad infinitum. At least he can be of use for something positive now he's dead.

Savile was also friends with Margaret Thatcher, Prince Charles, Peter Sutcliffe and has a knighthood from the pope, go figure.

I've only just caught up with all this, I've been successfully ignoring it, but I'll add my titbits.

John Major invited Savile to entertain the wives of the G7 over an afternoon (1992, I think). Plus there's a possible controversial Ted Heath link (as put to Cameron in parliament recently). Didn't Savile also "officially" meet the PM of Israel, speak to the cabinet and get a medal? Not to mention his appointment, by Edwina Currie, to head the taskgroup taking charge of Broadmoor. All very bizarre.

Typical of British amateurishness that a failed wrestler and dodgy disc jockey would run a high security prison and advise the 'great and good'.

That sounds sinister now. Poor wives......

BTW I think Watson has now said it wasn't Heath he was referring too ( although his name has come up elsewhere),it was Thatcher.

The child witnesses were picked on and one of the girls was given a long jail term to discourage them from speaking

That might be what Watson is saying he meant now, but that still leaves the allegation from the witness at that Jersey care home, supposedly. Though what is to be gained from any more unsavoury Heath details coming out, I'm not sure. Perhaps best left alone.

I've split this post from the original as it had roamed well away from the OP's original intent.

I think my post should still be in the Tony B Liar topic, not the start of this one. The people who responded to it took it off topic!

Can you repost it into the original topic please John. That's the easiest way of doing it I think.
