Rest in peace Sir Jimmy Savile.
I always wanted to go on Jim'll Fix It and play drums with Adam And The Ants. I remember one kid getting to do it.
Jimmy would want smiles so here it is. Watch the first minute of this OFAH clip.

He raised a shed load of money for Stoke Mandeville Hospital. Certainly a one off.

Jim'll Fix It, a big part of growing up, like the dukes of Hazard an ABBA. I think I am getting old

I was in one of my shops the other day and Paper back writer came on the stereo, the assistant manager turned to the manager and asked if it was the Beatles and he said he wasn't sure

Thumbs up Nice one Jim....

"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."

Oh that´s really sad. He was indeed a part of growing up. The hair and the Cigar. The crack. On a par with Eric Morcombe. A thoroughly lovely bloke

Default A Real Bogeyman Pretend Your Asleep Hes here

Now he is what you call a nightmare, not a frightening dream but a real unpleasant experience, and thought he was supercilious to other people, hes up there with Hindley,Brady etc this guy was a true freak.

Did no ever wonder why he never had a girlfried or got married you can bet your life savings that hes only the tip of the iceburg in the BBC they will put a closer on this quicker than you can say hansel & Gretel.

Never mind moving his grave stone, he should be moved as hes in hallowed ground why when he really should be in unhallowed ground.

Hallowed ground is ground that has been blessed by a priest or has been consecrated. This usually includes churches and cemeteries.

Not much more to say except (Truly sickening)
