Watched it yesterday morning. He committed the perfect crime really. Over and over again. Calculated, manipulative, strategically planned - all of which enabled him to get away with the most serious crimes imaginable, in plain sight, over the course of several decades.
Looking at his ‘case comes up next Thursday’ comments, and the like, it was clear he derived as much pleasure out of mocking the victims, and the rest of us, as any sexual thrill he got. It was his way of taunting his victims by saying: ‘I am untouchable’.
As to Prince Charles, don’t believe he knew, or suspected, and I think it’s easy to be critical; Savile fooled lots of people, but he still comes across as hopelessly naive and a bit insecure and needy in some of those letters
As to Savile, I think power and money in huge quantities do things to people which are usually negative for themselves and those around them. I suspect he started out as a ****, and became an even bigger **** as his fame and wealth grew. I suspect he increasgly loved having power over others, which he used as a force for bad, because it made him feel powerful.
I don’t agree that the charity work was a search for atonement or redemption. It provided a respectable veneer which enabled him to carry out his crimes more conveniently, whilst at the same time allowed him to carry them out in plain sight, which was both expedient and thrilling for him.
Andrew Neill’s comments at the end hit home. Most of us have a stake in enabling him to some extent. This weird looking and acting ****, who dressed and acted like a nonce, fooled most of us to the extent that he felt confident enough to continue offending with impunity.
A truly awful human being, who , quite simply, got away causing human misery on an industrial scale and then was given a well-attended, respectful and dignified send off after he died in his eighties. The perfect crime - and it marks the character of the man that the subsequent exposure and fall out would accentuate his enjoyment, not diminish it.
He would have loved the thought of people knowing once he had gone. He would have loved the documentary, because it endorsed his wicked MO, such is the warped way his evil, nasty, cruel, horrible **** of a mind worked.
Fuck Jimmy Savile. The very worst humanity can offer.
