Did the BBC Fix It For Jim?
Awkward Questions for Director General Mark Thompson
Guido got wind of this yesterday, but this week’s Oldie magazine is out, and has more details about a possible BBC cover up after Newsnight unearthed allegations of child abuse by Jimmy Savile on BBC property. The report was spiked, leaving a host of unanswered questions:
“The Newsnight investigation uncovered information of which Surrey Police was not aware, and moreover allegations were made about living people. Surely the BBC had a duty to inform the police about these disclosures? Yet there is no indication that it has done so, and the BBC has refused to answer questions about this. Furthermore, given that Savile was on the BBC’s payroll for more than 25 years, and along with the other celebrities who are still alive, is alleged to have abused minors on BBC premises, shouldn’t the Corporation have launched an in-house inquiry?
When asked if BBC Director-General Mark Thompson knew of the Newsnight report, the BBC refused to comment. But a source has told me that Thompson was tackled about the axing of the report at a pre-Christmas drinks party, so he cannot claim to be ignorant of it.”
Dark stuff…
So he was a wrong un?
What’s wrong with fiddling with little girls?
If it is good enough for Islamic gangs, Police chiefs, Magistrates, social workers, Child protection officers, Family court Judges, TV celebrities, Politicians, Rabbis and Priests, it’s good enough for Jimmy Savile. And the BBC will be only too happy to cover it up for them…
The BBC are riddled with it.
Jimmy Riddled? He’ll be along in a minute.
Certainly good enough for Handycock. All sorts of people have been covering up for him. ‘Bring me down and I’ll bring you all down with me’.
It is certainly good enough for me and everyone covers up for me. Boaz.
Jahbulon Mike.
and just remember Robert Green may go to prison because he tried to get justice for Hollie greig who was abused by some high ranking scottish tw8ts

The kiddies home he visited in Jersey was involved in child rape and murder. Other regulars were Edward Heath (popping over for a bit of kiddie torture on Morning Cloud) and The Queen Mother.
Source – the kids who survived speak out on Youtube.
We are saying nothing.
Guido keep us updated on any development on this syory ‘as it ‘appens.
Now then, now then
‘Ow’s about that then
And you can leave me out of this.
We`ll see about that……
Muffin the mule is a sexual offence.
Surely that depends upon the age of the Mule….
What we need to decide that is a ‘Diversity Consultant’.
W.W.
No, that’s Dobbin the Donkey
Muffin the Mule is an understandable error often committed by Theresa Mays partners.
Goodies
I watched that documentry that Louixwhats his name did with JS.
I finished thinking he some kind of dodgy secret he would rather not come out.
Is there anyone other than me that doesn’t fiddle their expenses, fiddle with kiddies, hack phones, fiddle benefits?
Is there anyone in this country other than me that isn’t a crook in one way or another.?
Feels like I am missing out!
W.W.
I don’t fiddle
I thought you had been banned. Is that true or is it just your name that is banned?
Mark could get consultancy advice from the pope & the catholic church about how to handle this matter
yop
Some time in the 90s (1997 labour i suspect) the UK seemed to confuse the age of majority 18 with the age of consent 16 . I know that in the 70s (Garry Glitter time) teenage girls would throw their knickers at singers, roadies, even bouncers(OMG!).
Have we all gone mad, is it because of internet porn. We should find out.
Oh what a web they weave…..
‘Now then, now then what have we here?’
A stash of drugs and some impressionable young girls Jim.
Claim it was a mental health problem and you’ll be alright… the lords are preparing for care in their retirement:
http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/interactive/news/lords-vote-in-favour-of-mental-health-amendment-id801288336-t116.html
so taxpayers money has been used to investigate and make this program, yet the BBC refuse to answer any question on it?
The BBC needs to be held to account.
Silly billy.
They are only required to hold others, ‘in power’ to account.
That’s what makes them so… unique.

The irony of there being one comment to that thread, and it got modded out… is well taken.
seem to remember there was a big hoo hah many years ago with accusations levelled against Ed Stewpot Stewart and others by young girls. Detailed interviewing by Plod led to case being closed as the girls stories would not stand up in court due to material inconsistencies in the dates and times relating to the events they alleged took place. Is this part of the same and only being brought out as the man is dead and in the UK a corpse cannot be libelled!’ might lead to more of the same, half a story, BBC messes up on presentation, and the hole lot gets spiked!
Tell that to Oliver Cromwell!
Chris Patten will be failing in his duties if he doesn’t fully investigate this. Something stinks.
To begin with, that Hunt stinks to high Hell so he isnt the right man to investigate anything
Patten – the archetypal establishment figure. He will be about as diligent as Neil Kinnock in rooting out corruption in Brussels.
Maybe Malcolm Balen could produce a new report on the matter at licence payers expense. The report could be named “Another Balen Report”, and it could be filed with the first “Balen Report” under “not for publication”.
…yeah, send in a big Catholic.
Jimmy did it to help them learn to swim: he always maintained that if he removed his fingers they would have sunk like stones.
That was me

Jimmy Saville’s Carowagon up for auction in Weybridge
12:00pm Thursday 19th January 2012 in
The bizarre vehicle goes up for auction at Mercedes-Benz World, Weybridge, and is expected to fetch in excess of £15,000.
The converted Range Rover – a vehicle choice for the military – comes complete with a double bed and wash basin.
evidence?
Yes, of very bad taste.
Throw a cordon around it
Too late, they should have done that when the fucker was alive.
This is shocking. A man at the BBC was straight? I dont bekieve it
Told you so.
Why is Guido reading The Oldie magazine – surely he is still quite a young chap
Will they take awy Sir Jims…Sir…and leave him Mister Jim in his grave? BBC paid for by the public, is it not answerable to its paymasters???
A very good point. Goodwin has his knighthood taken away for screwing a bank`s finances, surely Saville should have his taken away if it`s proved he was screw……eh, yes it`s a very good point.
He should probably have has his bollocks taken away heyheyhaahaha
Never mind all this bollocks when are we going to hear more about that tosser Ken being fired from the radio?
Which Ken’s that?
The other Ken, the newt-bothering kind, is most uncharitable towards the Tories:

Ken who ?
Guido looking at some of the old salts in your mature dating adverts, maybe the old queen saw the light and went for a younger model init
If it wasn’t for the Guardian, it would have been in the News of The World.
Who are the ‘other two’ you mentioned yesterday?
Simon Bates?
D L T?
Oh please please, could one of them be the utterly repellent DLT.
…the thought of his beard velcro-ed to some girl’s muff. Bleugh

Camerons latest insult to women.
My company hires talent & competence, not on the basis of the presons sex.
What an arse Cameron is.
Vote UKIP.
+1
Early retirement for Thompson I guess.
Plus a huge pay-out no doubt.
Very strange taste some of these young girls have. Jimmy was an odd one and no mistake. Isn’t that right Tone?
Do you want to be in my gang ?
Lord Pattern will be to busy playing with his Widgery.
Time for Sir Muir Russell and Lord Oxburgh to be invited to set up an inquiry.
As Saint Jim of Leeds said,” Suffer little children to come unto me…..”
“Suffer little children me come unto”
W.W.
Now then, now then, guys and gals, guys and gals, especially gals. Will you fix it for Jim? And Jim’ll fix it for you. Now then, now then.
Now then gals think of me as your Teddy Bear and King Louie.
He bloody well fixed me!
One would think the BBC were trying to cover something up what with all this airbrushing from history, this from WIKI
“In October 2011, BBC Director-General Mark Thompson apologised to Jonathan King, following the removal of King’s performance of It Only Takes a Minute from a 1976 episode of Top of the Pops that was repeated on BBC Four. Thompson stated: “We accept that this should not have happened and we would like to apologise for any upset this caused.” King had accused the BBC of a “Stalinist” revision of history.”
John Major had “It beggars belief”, Tony Blair had “What is important is”, Gordon Brown had “It’s the right thing to do”. I’ve yet to identify David Cameron’s catchphrase. Any ideas?
I’m a wanker
Allin it together
All wanking together
Together we will wank
David Cameron, who is abroad ….
all illness and disability is in the mind
there’s loads of jobs
wisteria, what wisteria, it’s a lupin
Calm down dear
you have my cast iron promise…….
Cameron’s initial reply to almost every question at P.M.Q.s – “My honourable friend makes a very important point…..”
Mr Prime Minister. Is it not the case you are a complete and utter wanker, an insult to conservatism and a traitor to Britain?
Maybe it’s because I’m a Londoner…
David ‘Arry’ Cameron and George ‘Arry’ Osborne have called a press conference at midday to debate whether ‘Jim Will Fix It’ will be renamedd ‘Arry Will Fix IT’
So Jimmy never made friends with Esther then.
Mark Thompson should resign, but the BBC is short on morals but high on biased hypocrisy.
Watching Daily Politics…two identikit politicians, one Labour one Tory.
Blahblahblah from the two of them.
Did the Tory have a LibDem in his pocket?
You got wind of it Guido because they delivered your subscription copy like every body else did
John Simpson mentions a coverup of a wee-known children’s entertainer at the BBC in one of his books. He did the obituary for him and the abuse took place on BBC property. Parents complaints were angrily denied.
A pattern is there. Interesting stuff emerges when you start Googling btw.
Simpson was bollocked several times when he pointed out that Saint Nelson Mandela was largely hated throughout Africa, especially in RSA.
Informal oral disciplinary case.
Move along there, nothing in this story.
It was all fixed for Jim many years ago, so no digging around this saint if you don’t mind.
if the BBC is permitted to make programmes glamourising and kowtowing to the prophet (pbuh), how can they criticise the great Jimmy Saville (pbuh)?
You’re saying Jimmy Saville was accused of molesting children? I didn’t know he was a priest.
If the BBC fixed it, then they fixed it for the BBC and not for Savile, presumably because the BBC had fixed it for him three decades ago. I never liked him anyway because he got in the way of Doctor Who on a Saturday night. Institutional cover-up is a bigger story than the wrongdoings of a man who is now dead, at least until a victim comes forward and reports a crime.
Something deeply sinister about the 1970s and the entertainment business. Urrgh.
Did Bobby Davro’s wife suck off an alsation in one photo? or was it that bird that was married to Les Dennis?
what about McRuin and his connection to Dunblane?
What about it ?
Take a look at Ishmael’s Blog – Dunblane. There are people in the vicinity of the Scottish toon who will tell you the one-eyed PM was among prominent individuals allegedly involved in something stomach-turningly appalling back in the ’90s.
William Hague?
Any single man who goes on holidays to Jersey needs a close eye kept on them.
Aye, there are questions about wilfred brambell who, it is alleged, visited Jersey ‘regularly’. Where did he stay? Will some public spirited person on Jersey not blow the whistle?
Haute de la Garenne? Huge cover up. A national disgrace.
Forgot to mention…Heard a rumour that bbc plans to air Scottish styled kiddie show to be called Jock’ll Pox It. Host to be the absentee of Fife one James Gordon Brown
Might just be a rumour…Stranger things have happened. They could have Hollie Grieg as a guest.
Well known – he used to drink in The Clarence in Whitehall. I imagine he had a few friends working nearby.
They’re not alone in hushing up mucky activity, no press mention of the 47 Asian male paedophile ring, currently on trail at Liverpool Crown Court.
The licence fee payers owe £30m to the European Investment Bank and must be paid by May. The BBC also receives grants/subsidies to promote European Politics. Wtf?
So the BBC are harbouring kddie fiddlers….
Looks like some heads are going to have to roll…. Burn the fucking lot of em.
Blatent cover-up. Looks like I will have to make a formal complaint to the Met to get them of their lazy arses & investigate this.
Not sure that a trip to Jersey is proof of anything other than a desire to be near the source of rich full cream milk.
and the BBC still shows Roman Polanski films !
Jimmy Saville’s name came up during the Surrey Police investigation into Jonathan King. May be worth asking them exactly what came up and what they did about it.
While portering, Jimmy used to spend lots of time on Ward A at the Leeds General Infirmary. That was the female psychiatric unit on the ground floor of the Brotherton Wing overlooking Millenium Square.
He used to push his trolley in and out all day.
Circa 1970 I attended the Leeds University “physiotherapists ball”. My “date” was an attractive Jewish girl who was a physio student and a friend of a friend, I worked for Leeds City Council.
The host was one JS. During the night he made several disparaging remarks about Jews. I was appalled and protective but, then, too young to have the courage to confront the bastard. A few years later I would have publicly verbally wiped the floor with him.
As you can see by this post I still have serious guilt about not having done that.
To her credit my date was totally unperturbed. Maybe she was used to such abuse from twats like Saville.
Alright you lot, which one let the heterosexual onto the bbc premises?
The BBC have form when it comes to keeping this sort stuff quiet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ar7_sGVAZ10&feature=player_embedded#t=1m10s
Jersey abuse cases: http://stuartsyvret.blogspot.com/
And: R vs. Reverend Peter Lister (Newcastle Crown Court, 2005): Inaccurate (or clever?) police work stops details of alleged child abuse by a vicar from being heard in an open court. Perhaps it’s a coincidence that the Rev. Peter Lister was Director of Education, Lichfield Diocese, in charge of hundreds of schools and youth projects. He has now taken early retirement but still does church work in Bishops Tachbrook. Warwickshire.

Goodness gracious, guys and gals, it’s…
Pop At The Tots!
I FIXED IT FOR JIM
Kiddies???
I feel seriously jilted and rather miffed. Here at Stoke Mandeville we always thought Jim preferred the other end of the life cycle.
