I thought he was creepy when i was a kid of 8 and he was at his height in the late 70s
The first time i heard the rumour that he was a child molester was in 1990. So if i had heard about him, it must have been widely known.
Here we are 22 years later.

Just looked through this old thread...amazing how opinions can change in a year...

Dashiel · 11th October 2012, 07:39

No my opinion on him has always been consistent.
He wasnt right.

greendriver · 11th October 2012, 07:42

Fair enough. It appears his family also has deep concerns, which speaks volumes.

Dashiel · 11th October 2012, 07:45

What i find really unbelievable is how the news of the world didnt nail him.
They knew the rumours.
Everyone in the media did.
So who decided not to investigate him?

He had a lot of influence and power. The BBC was a closed shop at the time and protected their stars.

He was known as everyone's beneficial uncle, and his charity work clouded everyone's judgement, imho

Probably because all of us knew nothing of what has just come to light, myself included.

Society once remembered him as a great man, now he will be remembered as a monster and a liar.

It just shows you how a clever, manipulative and shameless individual can operate. He hid in plain site. Everyone failed, the bbc, the press, the police erc.
