A diverse offering twixt the interesting, the unusual, and the amusing.
How prescient of him.
Right. The clip was made in the early 80's; great foresight!
Wow Rikki died in 2004!. Loved Him in Scotch andWry!.
I must admit that I'd not heard of him before; I came across this by chance.
Jimmy Saville doing the Age of the Train ads for BR.
Everyone has known about Jimmy Saville since the beginning. That is why they all feel guilty about not blowing the whistle.
A well deserved face-full.
I had certainly heard about his visits to some children's home in either Jersey or Guernsey, way before the press stated mentioning it.
BR heard some rumours about him and pulled the ads. That was in about 1983. Everyone was too scared to follow them up because he was treated as some kind of god.
I recently heard Tony Blackburn saying that everyone at Radio 1 and BBC 1 hated him.
