    One of the other horrifying things about Savile is that he was the embodiment of "The Bad Guy Wins". He went to his grave a hero, had people of power and prestige in his back-pocket, maintained an air of respectability and got away with it all. Not matter how much his legacy is rightfully destroyed now, he got away with it, broke all society's expectations that people like him should receive comeuppance for their atrocities and his victims will never truly see real justice for his crimes. :(

    So, my mum worked in a pub in the Isle of Wight when she was younger (in the 70's) and Savile stayed near by for about a month. Nearly every night he would come in for a pint and bring a girl with him. Many of them looked underage (although this is just speculation) but one of the girls talked to my mum and said she was 14, my mum questioned him about this and he claimed he was "mentoring" her she asked the girl this and the girl nodded along with him. When all these terrible things about him came out my mum told me this and she also added that she had regretted not saying anything to anyone for all these years.

    This vile man used his power to target the absolutely vulnerable: children, women, the destitute, the physically or mentally ill, and the elderly.

      Sir Jimmy was rewarded with the keys to the mortuary/hospital in exchange for the child-procuring he'd done for the elites. Famously Lord Mountbatten of Burma, and Ted Heath. Savile was more of a puppet/agent, a cog in a wheel, than some kind of mastermind who abused his power.

Most people don't know that he was also questioned twice in relation to a couple of the ripper victims, one of whine was found at the base of flats where his penthouse was located. One of the victims had been bitten, according to a police officer who worked on the case they took casts of his teeth but were told from up high to leave it alone and not question him, the top officer of west Yorkshire police who was great friends with Savile would later become Savilles personal driver, i think that says a lot.

      The Royals don't let anyone into their inner circle without being fully investigated by their secret service. Harris & SaVILE were totally inner circle. Savile had Christmas dinner with Margaret Thatcher for 11 years in a row. Edward Heath would have Savile bring boys onto his boat, the Morning Cloud, who were never seen again. Savile being defended by Peter Sutcliffe? There were suspicions at the time that some of the Ripper murders had to have involved a second man - a victim was found in one of Savile's front gardens.

    Lord Mountbatten ( who loved young boys) brought Savile into the royal household in 1967 then when 'Uncle Dickie' as the royal family called Mountbatten was killed in 1979 Prince Philip became Saviles close friend until Savile boasted on a 1980 Parkinson show how he "smuggled" a young girl into the palace for Philip (can be seen on CZcams), that friendship cooled so Prince Charles stepped in and became Saviles VERY close friend till he died, the two often stayed together at Saviles Scottish Glencoe hideaway cottage called Allta na Reigh, the two would exchange birthday gifts with each other and Charles even wrote Saviles eulogy for his funeral. Why was Savile so close to the royal family? because Savile was a child procurer for the elite and politicians too (Savile could come and go at the House of Commons without even a permit) and that's why he was protected till he died. Then there was Saviles 'Friday morning club' where old friends from his sleazy night club days, retired doctors, a chemist and most importantly 4 members of West Yorkshire Police , would discuss events and it was alleged the police officers would brief Savile about the complaints they received from Saviles victims, Savile would then seek them out and either coerce, bribe or threaten the victims into silence.

    The most frustrating thing looking back at the Saville case is that there were so many victims speaking out that were being actively ignored by those in power. Yet where are the prosecutions - the heads of NHS, prison, police institutions? Saville was allowed to commit all sorts of heinous acts with a blind-eye being turned, yet no one was held to account.
    The issue is... this sort of thing can and, unfortunately, will happen again. People that have power will cover for others that have power with the occasional case coming to light long after the person dies.

    First time watching this podcast. I had to take a serious break from watching true crime for awhile, it suddenly got to be too much for me mentally. (Gods know how you true crime creators do this regularly. I hope everyone in this genre is taking care of their mental health). Anyway, I was really interested in how you'd approach this, and in hearing the entirety of the case since I didn't find any of this out until I definitely did not illegally download the Panorama special from a famous torrent site (because I moved to America over 24 years ago and Jimmy Saville is a unique British, uh... not so much a treasure now. But he's not known here, at all. I am older than you guys, and I grew up on Jim'll Fix It. I remember my initial feeling was betrayal and that I'd lost a part of my childhood. Then I took a step back and reminded myself I had lost nothing but a fond memory of a TV show host, and there were victims who DID lose their childhood and innocence due to this monster. Your feelings are not always valid, and it's healthy to sort through them and get some perspective).
    I will say that where and whenever the BBC fucked up, Panorama did not pull ANY punches with that special.
    I really appreciate the humor and levity you both bring to true crime. I think I may have finally found a way to ease myself back into the genre.

    He was the kind of creep who ingratiated himself with the powerful, precisely so that they would believe the best of him, never the worst. I doubt heartily he’d have shown even a smidgen of his true nature to any of them. They were pawns in his game, the sickening creep. Well, he can’t charm his way out of anything where he is now.

    Ultimately he shall 'get away' with nothing. We shall all have our day of judgement before God and without repentance of his sins, he shall spend eternity in hell.
