- The full episode of HIGNFY with Jimmy Saville and Diane Abbott - (S17E07) as originally broadcast (Full Episode) - Interesting from about 19:30 note look on Ian Hislop's face, when asked what Jimmy 'does' in his caravan - "Anyone I can get my hands on" Note the look on his face, he looks down when he says it - Very telling indeed !!

"Most feared man in all Girl Shools across the UK " ...Abbots face when Saville dropped that one ! 😱
Hiding in plain sight
And she is still an MP!
@@StrikingAlexa
Wonder if he visited Harrow County Grammar school amongst all the girls schools in the country .
@@posh0610Yes all these years later still an MP and Hislop and Merton still appearing on the same show . Shame Angus Deayton blotted his copy book otherwise he might still be presenting on the same show too .
Savile
20:27 The moment I got creeped out.
18:38 This moment interests me, a lot. Angus is heading somewhere, it's a loaded question. But Savile interrupts the train of thought with an unorthodox technique of refusing, accepting, building and blocking. It's something which actors learn for improv skills, I trained in it and recognised it instantly. You basically have four options in response to cues; accept and block, accept and build, refuse and block, refuse and build. But Savile somehow managed to combine all of those conflicting elements into one response. He accepted the cue on the subject of Margaret Thatcher, but refused the conversation by focussing on an irrelevant anecdote which shifted attention. He blocked the line of questioning, yet built upon the subject to his own purpose. The ultimate outcome was refusing and blocking, but he did it by combining elements which should not naturally meet. The speed in which he was able to recognise and deal with that situation is not as simple as it may seem. He was smarter than people took him, and it fascinates me that he was able to steer that conversation and avoid any one of those sharp minds present picking up the baton and running with the Margaret Thatcher line of conversation. Don't get me wrong, I don't admire the scumbag for being able to do that. But I note his intelligence, and it's a very telling moment where he demonstrates how he got away with his sick crimes when most others would have been busted decades before. He had very sharp linguistic skills, he talked his way out of situations. Look closely at his eyes, just before he responds to Angus's question. He saw where that was heading, and got in there instantly to divert it.
you're reading a great deal into him rambling into an anecdote and nobody giving enough of a shit to challenge him on it
A bit like when he produced a banana in a certain interview to produce a similar effect.
He did do a lot of deflection when posed with difficult questions although in this case it was most probably a stock answer he had prepared when people asked him about Mrs T.
The grief and battering Angus deaton got and look what jimmy was doing
Cos Jimmy was in with the royal family
Yeah you’re right but you have to remember the difference is no one could actually say it to jimmy because he was dead mate 😂
@@Maxmorris12Rumour has it that he wasn't dead at the time of this recording.
@elvisleeboy Of course he was. You can pass away and still be on. Have I got news for you 😂
@@AB-sg5wn Yes, as Diane Abbott proved.
I hope the following brings some cheer? I am seventy year old survivor with diagnosed C-PTSD who lives in Leeds, in 1986 I met Jimmy when he was jogging at 6am in Roundhay Park and aproached him with outstreched hand and smile he reciptocated and quick as a flash I gave him a "Glasgow Kiss" and knocked him spark out then dissappeared into the ealy morning mist....now I've never been a violent man but the satisfaction was immense. I cannot go into the reasons for my action here (but I had good reason) .....Love Life & Unity
Did ye aye doubt it
CZcams idiot
Course you did fella
Well done mate.
Gotta do what you've gotta do. Well done.
hiding in plain sight with his “risqué” jokes
Pay attention to Ian Hislop's expressions, he knew and is uncomfortable, avoid eye contact.
Definitely!
He certainly looks uneasy.
Ian said he knew nothing about Savile, but he felt very uncomfortable
@@stephenoliver958 It's possible he knew, or at least had a feeling, but could never prove anything...
@@RowanDrake47 Still seems strange he would agree to having him on the show? If anyone had inside information on him, you would think it would be Ian Hislop? They refused to have him on Children in need, why did they take it seriously, when others didn't?
In spite of the fact that Savile was then and always had been a creep, how fantastic HIGNFY was with Angus in charge. Paul & Ian were both funny then too
No. This can't be excused. This is footage of the BBC enabling a child rapist
Now then
I swore when Savile said about the girls schools.
Dianne Abbot is reckoned to be something of an eejit but look at her expression, she sussed him out.
I thinks she's only considered an idiot by racist misogynists
She was more clued up and with it back then.
Even Abacus ain't that thick.
We saw Savile on a float during a summer holiday in Scarborough when I was a kid (around 45 years ago). He turned around dropped his pants and showed his arse to all the onlookers.
😂
What’s wrong with that? 😂
well, was his ass nice?
Savile
And /
Ah yes, this infamous episode. Savile is a reoccuring menace if you like watching old BBC stuff
Bring back Angus, I miss him!
At 9.38, Deayton says "you used to be a wrestler didn't you?" To which Saville replies "still am, I'm feared in every girls school in this country"....
Coming Angus who snorted cocaine and had sex prostitutes.
ugh, the creepiness wasn't missed by the other panelists. I only wish he'd passed rotting in a cell rather than before the allegations came to light. Given he only seemingly had fame to save him in the public record of accounts, i dread to think of what other famous people are getting up to or what he had on other powerful people to keep himself from prosecution.
He says that all the time, was his go to phrase, nothing new love
@@RJ-wx3fh A lot of it was probably exaggerated, people love to jump on the bandwagon to get there 5 minutes of fan, it's pathetic really, Louis Theroux's career was back of having one interview with him
^ "Exaggerated"! The opposite more like the filthy cretin.
@@RJ-wx3fh Exactly, hope he's burning in hell, but yeah makes one think how many more cover up's have occurred are going on etc
Look at Diane abotts face when Jimmy is introduced
AYE PROBABLY THINKING OH GOD I WOULD HAVE TO BE ON THE SAME SHOW AS THAT CREEPY FUCKER
"Jimmy". Were you on first name terms?
They all knew he was a monster 😂
i'm feared in every girls school in this country!!! unbelievable he said that!
Dirty Beast.
Think about the question they are asking Jimmy? 20.27 What do you do in the caravan? They already know the answers and are baiting him to see how he will answer on air. Who else would get asked what they do in their caravan?
Assuming the drama is accurate I guess this when he was turning up at the BBC with a caravan in the car park
tbf they don't often have guests who lived in a caravan for twelve years
Angus Deayton was a hero back when he hosted HIGNFY lol the amount of ribbing he took from Ian and Paul, such a great show ❤ Ian and Paul
The Savile jokes were pretty dark and twisted and revealing but I think the audience loved it partly because the show was full of smutty and sleazy jokes and inuendo, if he'd blurted that out on Blue Peter it would have seemed totally wrong or worrying but he could slip it in on a show like this and it just sounded like he was just being outrageous and daft when he was actually deadly serious.
Yeah - the "I'm feared in every girls' school in the country" does kind of "work" when you're talking about being a male wrestler who loses a lot of matches - the audience took it to mean he was really bad at matches, but he was being deadly serious.
He dropped his sleazy jokes just about every interview he did
Imagine if this was filmed in Yorkshire close to were he lived
Then we would definitely tell the difference with the audience in the background they won't even came
Because he raped kids and adults
Bro he got called out by a kid in hospital on camera and then mocked that kid
Nah bulls*t, how in 1999 someone got away with this in plain sight is a disgrace. BBC, anyone who knew (excusing the victims), anyone who enabled.
Coogan is great in this.
Now then now then
..theres only one jimmy savile ...one jimmy saville ......
but he doesnt capture the nastiness of the character
@@FilmFanaticCommentaries69fun, fun, fun.
@@slimjim4239Yes he does.
'im feared in every girls school in the country'
And boys
Wow
Not just girls
And the school Hamster got it to I believe
Well this aged well....
Savile was a big mate of King Charles 111.This has never been explained,nor how Savile was allowed the run of Buckingham Palace.
Wrong , it was.Kensington palace but the rest is correct.
@@briancohenthepfjmassive.4769 Google " Jimmy Savile access to Buckingham Palace "and you see he made regular visits.Same for St James Palace.He claimed to have made unfettered visits to these two palaces.
Thank you. They were literally best mates and no one questions the royals and their degenerate, vile behaviour.
At 9.50 is Paul giving the finger to Saville?
Jimmy Savile! You don't see much of him on TV these days.
Maybe, that's because he's dead?
...even Gary Glitter did comebacks.
Probably because he's dead.???.
The BBC don’t rerun any shows he appeared in
Erm… who wants to tell him? 🤣
Ows about that then 😱
I'm surprised youtube haven't taken this off
Feared in every girls school !!!!!
Iain didn’t look happy with his team mate.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
Note to self - the BEEB put an ash tray out for Jimmy.
Now that’s a high density of people who’ve been disgraced by public scandals since
1?
Seasons greetings to sir James. Warm, is It?
Paul and Ian both looked disinterested as their quiz partners are named.
Deayton talking about Dallaglio’s cocaine use. What a hypocrite
Angus the best host by a mile on HIGNY. Did chuckle about the first story being cocaine use though...NOTW exposed him to bring it full circle!
Oh shut up
Show me a person on this panel who isn’t!!!
20:30 "what do you do in the caravan, anyone i can get my hands on " .... the powers the be knew , but no one did anything :(
Auto tracking - classic I remember that
Never watched one episode of HIGNFY since they sacked Angus.and I loved the show
I recommend giving the Tom Baker, Boris Johnson, Brian Blessed, and William Shatner hosted episodes a go. Even if you feel that Angus was treated badly, they are classic episodes because they're very, very funny.
@@galesito1733 I just found Angus genuinely funny and liked his wit..the rest where all just trying to emulate the same wit and presentation I should imagine and I can’t be doing with it
@@josephkennedy8281 No. Not at all - that's what make the show so good! The guest presenters all take to with their own personality, they are not emulating Angus at all. I'd add the episodes with Victoria Coren-Mitchell and Kirsty Young to the above list.
People say Saville hiding in plain sight..don't think he even bothered hiding everyone must of known 😢
Savile
@@sandgrownun66 your right one L 😀he's in L
@@rick66649 "your right". No, you're wrong, actually.
Must HAVE known.
No, everyone knew rumours he was creepy. It doesn’t mean they knew anything concrete or anything about kids.
So as a wrestler Jimmy was kicked in the bollocks,clearly not hard enough!
It’s a shame Angus can’t return as a presenter even as a guest.
Is the clip available when the Prince Edward Cresta run joke was used.
Oh My Effing.. God… ☹️
Abbott and Hislop look consistently disgusted
yet happily sits alongside him because he gets paid and that's more important
She looked more pissed off when he said women get upset when they find there's nothing for them to do in a kitchen than over any of the more sinister jokes.
@@kellyfinch5257Well said
Abacus is disgusting. So what's new?
No platforming. Fucking hell.
Saville and Abbacus. What a line up.
Two useless zeros
Yeah I cant decide who is worse.
@@shellsbignumber2probably the serial nonce to be fair 😂
@@shellsbignumber2 Are you sure?
Savile
Diane has been on HIGNFY eleventy times
😂😂😂 twelthty I think
@@klsaunders2656 putting her best shoe forward
An expression used by Tolkien, so not sure how clever or witty you are trying to be with that comment.
HaIGNFY never been as good since Angus left
Did not leave, he was sacked.
I liked Angus, but there have been many, many funny shows since he was replaced (tonights was a good example).
I disagree. I think Ian and Paul rallied after he was sacked, and their rivalry shifted into friendship.
Plus putting aside the amazing 1 off hosts like Brian Blessed, Bruce Forsyth, Tom Baker and William Shatner the likes of Kirsty young and Martin Clunes have been great hosts who interact much better with Paul and Ian.
those 2 things are not mutually exclusive @@moyajanko6642
@@grimupnorthhe has in Waterloo Road as Mr Windsor
20:26 they all knew
interesting comment from Deayton re cocaine
ow how they clapped lol
Savile really is a total dinosaur here.He is now not needed by the BBC at that time.
The meeting of 2 great minds?
I wonder how many of the participants on the show knew of the rumors about Savile at this point . Did Hislop have any idea about the accusation about Jimmy at this point ?
Look at his expression, I think he does know he looks absolutely disgusted
They all did, but because of the power Saville had it was not easy to do anything about it. That's why he got away with it for so long. You have to see the reactions for example when Saville says "I'm feared in every girl's school in the country." There's more than the usual "lol ok.."
Who cares hahaha good one Jim😂😂
@@DaveJohns-wh7fp So edgy 🤡🤦🏻♀️
@@DaveJohns-wh7fpOh dear, we’ve found either someone who’s had 1 too many on a Friday night or a 15 year old boy.
I heard he cheated at the marathons, you can't trust anyone nowadays.
He had a car or a van pick him up and then he got out close to the finish line.
Yeah I heard that too. It was mentioned in a documentary
"Nobody knew" bull shit! they all knew, but chose to look the other way
This episode aged about as well as Diane Abbott did.
AFAICT it's at 20:25, not 19:30
17:50 Merton's expression is hilarious, considering his own answer was more sensible
Is he a dolphin in a bathtub?
What year was this first aired?
28th May 1999
Shame that Nigel Bond's - probably - only ever mention came in an episode which happened to feature S*vile...
What year is this?
May 1999. Manchester United won the European Cup (completing the Treble) on May 26th, as seen at 8:40 in the above video.
2023
Abbott seems half decent here
Yes, only half decent.
Before the diabetes.
Margaret Thatcher knighted Jimmy Saville.
What's happened to the end of this?
They all knew the rumours. All of them. I remember when I was a kid, my Mum was a nurse at the local hospital and when JS visited they were all warned to keep away from him. These guys knew the rumours, knew they were almost certainly true, and they failed to hold him to account. They held BJ to account when he was on, why not JS?
Because with Boris there was evidence they could use. There's a recording of him and Guppy getting details to beat up a journalist. There's records of him getting sacked from multiple jobs. No matter how strongly they believed the rumours, they were just that.
you`re wrong, they perhaps all new the rumours but didn`t know the detail of this horrid man. At the time BJ had only been around for 5 minutes and still made an arse of himself and yet people (the gulible) still voted for him..
Rumours
Because they were scared of him. Rich, powerful, seen as a force for good with his charity fundraising, friends within the Royals, the PM and the police with lawyers like Rottweilers. One failed attempt to prove these rumours and he could have ended their careers in a heartbeat, meanwhile he was untouchable.
you missed the last few minutes where Saville admitted to everything he had done - bbc sill denied the rumors
Hislop knew, all the time he was sat next to him he knew the rumours and accusations, the media was well aware and Private Eye gleaned from all other media sources
Would have been nice if he'd done something about it.
Private eye thrives on innuendo. This was par for the course.
@@MartinHiggins1972he had no actual evidence, just rumours. If private eye said anything Jimmy would have sued them for libel, and won
@@DanielA-zc8fdPlus Hislop is only a court jester and Savile was part of the establishment.
Shows what sort of a man Hislop is then doesn’t it. Knew all along but his career was more important!
Was the question what do you do in the caravan rehearsed? Hislop’s expression after is pretty bleak.
Paul quite accurate at 17:15
Looking at Abbott with different eyes on this if I'm honest 👀👀
What about his mating call uhuhuhuhuhuh ?
End of May 1999!
What year was this filmed?
Considering it's discussing the Manchester Utd Euro Cup win, it'll be 1999.
Why is it always the person you most expect?
Hislop at 20.38.
Who’s the older dude with the white hair?
Wow - they certainly went for the very dodgy guests on this one.
Being pals of Thatcher should of been warning in the first place.
should have not should of*
Bring back Angus
Not after his three in romp in a bed on my licence fee.
Much as I think Angus was a great host, and I wish that his career had picked up more after HIGNFY, I do think his position became untenable after his tabloid "scandals". When Christine Hamilton, of all people, was able to undermine him, the show stood no chance of poking fun at anyone in power.
@@H2whoaMusic that doesn't make any sense because the hosts afterwards were far more scandal probe...
@@H2whoaMusic i agree as they addressed it in the 30 year anniversary special also
@@toxy3580do you mean scandal prone ?
abbot was great she never opened her mouth
How many marathons? Wow sterling effort.
Running away from his victims, no doubt.
So easy to be wise after the event regarding Jimmy Savile, as can be seen by the many retrospective experts on social media.
During a career in which he was very popular with the English public Jimmy could be seen as eccentric,odd and in my opinion attention seeking and quite frankly annoying(Although I found the Louie Theroux documentary brilliantly entertaining)
But apart from jokes about him having sex with cadevers( note,these were jokes!) nobody seriously thought he was a sexual deviant and certainly not a paedophile.
The jokes about him liking kids was based around the fact he presented the kids show Jim'll Fix It and not a serious suggestion he was a kiddy fiddler.
In actual fact most rumours and gossip suggested he was a homosexual and his boasting of how many women he had slept with, his crude jokes about women and his on camera flirting with women was a smokescreen to his homosexuality.
What we know now is a different story.
But internet experts, dont kid yourself that you 'knew' about Jimmy, otherwise you should hang your head in shame for not doing something about it, right?
There were investigations made against him for decades as is now known. The police regularly questioned him about allegations. A lot of this was common knowledge. It’s a given that he was protected by people who either covered it up or just did not know of his depravity.
@@nicholasdickens2801 It wasn't common knowledge, only some rumours within the entertainment industry. The general public were obvlivious to this and also there's only one record of him being interviewed by the police so it was hardly a regular thing.
You are typical of the wise after the event crowd.
I bet you knew he was a wrong un all the time, right?
I grew up in an era when Jim'll Fix It, Top of the Pops, Rolf Harris, etc, were all "family viewing". I don't recall a single comment either from family, friends or at school, that Saville "was a wrong 'en".
You're speaking as a member of the public. I knew nothing either, but many people in positions of authority did. The people who employed him knew very well what was going on but were kept at bay by Savile's lawyers.
Some within the industry certainly knew, ever seen the interview with Johnny Rotten calling him out. Saville wasn't the only one just so sad they were allowed to get away with it.
for now HIGNFY can applaud and love Savile then pretend they always hated him later
Chilling!
I know. And to think how far she’s gone within the Labour Party!! Not only chilling but frightening.
The reaction was at 20: 30 not 19: 30 .
Angus so missed. Never watch it these days.
Yea it used to ne an unmissable show for me back in the day. Now I couldn't give a toss if its on or not.
Dream team
I miss Angus.
17:14, Paul calling Diane and idiot....he knew back then.😂
We all did!
Would be hard to not know, unless you were on her level.
Dianne Abbott was one of the first black women to gain a degree at Cambridge.
Do you take issue with the fact that she's a woman, the fact that she's black, or the fact that her IQ is beyond your capability?
It’s true the Tories (Gove is a prime example), are worse than Diane Abbott when it come to correct numbers.
Hey, but that’s ok, because they are White and Eton Educated.
All the Abbott trolls -what a disgusting spectacle.
Racism in all its glory.

savile being disgusting has some stiff competition here with deayton and abbott!!!
Yes but look at all the jokes they were making! Saville was not out of place in this atmosphere it was all condoned
Good to know just how close Saville and Tory heroine Thatcher were. Tories not dodgy at all, of course.
