    BBC News Jimmy Savile accused of alleged sexual abuse

    Jimmy Savile accused of alleged sexual abuse


    Sir Jimmy Savile was also known for his charity work




    Sir Jimmy Savile has been accused of alleged sexual abuse against underage teenage girls in an ITV1 documentary to be shown on Wednesday.
    It is believed Exposure: The Other Side of Jimmy Savile, will include several interviews with alleged victims of the DJ and TV presenter who died last year.
    Sir Jimmy was never charged with any abuse offences during his lifetime.
    One complaint was made to Surrey Police in 2007 but following an investigation, no further action was taken.
    Sir Jimmy, who presented shows including Top of the Pops and Jim'll Fix It, died in 2011 at the age of 84.
    The abuse is alleged to have taken place in a number of places including hospitals, schools and BBC buildings.
    In a statement, the BBC said no evidence of allegations on its premises had been found.
    "The BBC has conducted extensive searches of its files to establish whether there is any record of misconduct or allegations of misconduct by Sir Jimmy Savile during his time at the BBC. No such evidence has been found.
    "Whilst the BBC condemns any behaviour of the type alleged in the strongest terms, in the absence of evidence of any kind found at the BBC that corroborates the allegations that have been made it is simply not possible for the corporation to take any further action."
    Sir Jimmy's niece Amanda McKenna, of Kirkstall, Leeds, told the Yorkshire Evening Post: "The documentary makers should be ashamed of themselves cashing in on a man who is dead and cannot defend himself."
    For more than six decades, Sir Jimmy was one of Britain's most established showbusiness figures and a leading charity worker.
    The country's first pop disc jockey, Sir Jimmy was also a seasoned television presenter, marathon runner, Mensa member, wrestler and fundraiser.
    He was instantly recognisable in his trademark tracksuit and chunky jewellery.

    will be interesting to see the programme on Wednesday.

    I'm open minded at this stage.

    Default Jimmy Savile accused of alleged sexual abuse

    I read a little this morning on a few paper/tabloid sites and don't really know what to believe either. After watching him on Louis Theroux he definitely came across a bit eccentric and to be honest I thought he was gay.

    Very strange man and used to frighten me as a kid.
    I saw Louis Theroux, eccentric is the light for it. The fella was just plain weird!

    If it transpires he is a kiddie fiddler, I can't say I would be shocked.

    Being strange or eccentric doesn't automatically make you a kiddie fiddler, like consoles says it's easier to say it now he's not here to defend himself, i personally hope it's complete bollox, i loved jim'lfixit as a kid, would tarnish my memories if he is.

    This is bollocks. Back in the late 70s I wrote to him at Jim'll Fix It requesting to be a projectionist for a day at my local cinema. To my delight I was whisked to London and spent a mesmerising two days being shown round the Odeon in Leicester Sq. all expenses paid. Then Jimmy laid on a private screening of Star Wars just for the two of us. I remember the popcorn bucket sitting in his lap and his insistence I reach in and take as much as I wanted. His selfless generosity knew no bounds. Looking back I'm still a little puzzled as to why he kept his hotdog in his popcorn bucket, but as someone has already stated, he was eccentric.

    Default Jimmy Savile accused of alleged sexual abuse

    Always thought he was a minor dabbler but realised that everything I thought was fueled by internet rumours. Yes, he was eccentric and a bit weird. Mum's clothes and all that. Without concrete medical or recorded/video'd evidence the documentary isn't worth a jangle jangle.

    they were talking about this on the radio this morning. Apparently Esther Rantzen watched it and didn't believe it before but was utterly convinced of his guilt by the end.

    Sarah Cornley was a fictional person made up by a group of BBC script writers who also made up that alleged script of out-takes from Have I Got News for You!
