Jimmy Savile dead

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

How can you prove someone guilty of drugging someone over 30 years ago? Not defending the nonce but it must be pretty hard like.

Through convincing and credible testimony. Although the existence of any sort of forensic/scientific evidence is unlikely.

[Dr Nowt]

Good to see justice finally catching up with the horrific fucking creep.

[Trumo]

Not sure why Cosby wanted to fondle that spoon-bending weirdo Uri Geller. Maybe it was something to do with Jello pudding.

I was wondering this, considering there will be no physical evidence, unless it was recorded at the time.  It's their word against his.

You've summed up the whole US Justice System in one paragraph. The other consideration is the quality of lawyers. That may not be relevant here but the amount of wrongful convictions appears to stem from juries simply believing testimony from jailhouse snitches,other criminals and lying law enforcement officers and members of the public.

With Cosby though,maybe their testimonies all had details which could only be known by people who had been physically close or in properties who owned etc and they may have described patterns of behaviour other victims did too but I'm only guessing yet they are very credible pieces of information for convictions.

Saw a headline earlier that Cosby has been denied early release despite the prisons crawling with COVID. Would love to have been a fly on the wall when they delivered that bombshell.

 

 

No Jell-O pudding for Bill this week. Unless his cellmate is into affectionate nicknames.

Fair play, he made shitloads for charity and it'd be a duller country without eccentrics.

I wanted to train with LFC and try and save John Barnes' freekicks.

 

As already said a true eccentric, will we ever see eccentric celebrities like him again?

He did a shit load for charity, actually got his hands dirty working in hospitals and gave incredible amounts of his own cash each year.

 

He was a crazy character but we'll miss crazy, generous and decent characters like him.

 

Rest in peace and enjoy the view, you've deserved it.

Just been reading more about him: he actually gave away nine tenths of his income to others. Nine tenths!!! Also, he worked as a volunteer hospital porter one day a week for most of his life and, as a regular church-goer, always sat in the very back pew so as not to distract other worshippers on a Sunday. What a truly selfless bloke. How many people live like that? One in a million? Less?

Hahaha fucking hell lads 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Well he totally fooled me. 

 

To be fair I just wanted to say he'd make a good ghost and give him abuse without looking disrespectful.

A lad I worked with a few years ago proposed to his missus with a voice message like that from this man. At least I'm sure it was a proposal. Might have just been happy birthday but I remember it being a bit more extreme than just a happy birthday. Might have broken up with her using him. It was something mad anyway.

X-Factor was off it’s nit back then. Him and Chico and Jedward. At some point those waves of information are going to hit the Andromeda galaxy and it’ll be picked up by a vastly intelligent race that could transform our way of living, then they’ll say ‘not interested’ and move on. Thanks Jedward. 

[Strontium]

I read that Jedward have been spending lockdown with Tara Reid. Which is about as random as it gets.

During the chat, she bizarrely got Edward's name wrong and called him Eric, and seemed disorientated - which led to fans speculating about what caused the odd scenes.

 

[Bjornebye]

Devout Zionist as well apparently

A white roser indeed.  Hindsight is easy but that was funny

Good to know someone's fixing it for Jim:

 

BBC News - Sir Jimmy Savile: More time for fans to view gold coffin

 

Fans of Sir Jimmy Savile have been paying their respects to the broadcaster and charity worker.

 

Earlier, Sir Jimmy's gold-coloured coffin was carried into the Queen's Hotel, Leeds, a day before his funeral.

 

According to the hotel, up to 2,000 people have visited to pay tribute to the 84-year-old Jim'll Fix It presenter, who died on 29 October.

 

The funeral director said the coffin would be on display until 1830 GMT, two hours later than planned.

 

Sir Jimmy's funeral will be held at St Anne's Cathedral in Leeds at 1400 GMT on Wednesday.

 

The cortege will travel through the city before the Requiem Mass.

 

On Thursday, Sir Jimmy will be buried at an angle of 45 degrees at a cemetery in Scarborough "to enable him to see the sea", funeral director Robert Morphet confirmed.

 

'Last legend'

 

Fans travelled from across the country to pay their respects at the hotel.

 

One, Richard Firth, 34, from Reading, Berkshire, travelled from London to say goodbye to his childhood hero who he calls "Jim'll", in reference to the long-running TV show Jim'll Fix It.

 

Dressed in a tracksuit, with a sweatband around his head, Mr Firth said: "I'm here to pay tribute to the last legend."

 

The veteran broadcaster, who raised millions of pounds for charity, was found dead at his Roundhay flat two days before his 85th birthday.

 

The broadcaster's closed coffin, which is displayed in the bar of the hotel, features a crucifix and was covered with white roses.

 

His friend Howard Silverman said Sir Jimmy "would have loved" the events organised to celebrate his life.

 

Mr Silverman, who knew Sir Jimmy for 40 years, said: "He was a showman right till the end. I think he would have liked it - it's just a pity he's not here to see it."

 

Elevated plot

 

Sir Jimmy will be buried with a Royal Marines medal and green beret along with a Help for Heroes wristband.

 

Mr Silverman, who is reading a eulogy at Wednesday's funeral at the Roman Catholic St Anne's Cathedral in Leeds, said the plans for the DJ's final farewell were in keeping with his wishes.

 

Funeral director Robert Morphet, of Joseph A Hey & Son Ltd, said he had never been asked to organise a three-day funeral and staff had been working 12 to 14-hour days.

 

On Wednesday, Sir Jimmy's cortege will visit his mother's house and the Leeds General Infirmary before arriving at the cathedral for a Requiem Mass.

 

On Thursday, the coffin will tour Scarborough, where he had a home, to give people there the chance to pay their respects before Sir Jimmy is laid to rest in the most elevated plot in the cemetery.

 

Mr Morphet said: "As per Sir Jimmy's wishes, the casket will be at an angle of 45 degrees in the grave so he can see the sea.

 

"In my 32 years doing the job, I have never had a request like it."

Different times.
