    It says "inclusive of Fine Art Buyer's Premium at 22%, exclusive of sales tax VAT" Not so much to pay for your Fix it badge & shellsuit!

    Perhaps the chair wasn't part of the actual estate, but added by another seller.. then pulled at the last minute?
    If you read auction 523 it states "Every lot bar the Fix It chair will carry this footnote as they all come from his estate and with a specially printed circular provenance"

    Finally it's coming out. Big time.
    Attention!!! I know this is a very expensive Price for the record. This i one of my most beloved Records, so my primary intention isn't the selling. I like it in my collection. I only will sell it, if someone wants it that much, that he is willing to pay that much money. Therefore the unrealistic price. Please don't tell me about it. I don't want to cheat ,I don't force someone into buying it, I don't want to drive up the price.Thanks for understanding

    Interesting to see the presenters of Calendar (Yorkshire BBC / Look North for older viewers) trying to adjust the expressions of tearful pride and admiration they all wore at their extensive, fawning coverage of his funeral.

    My question would be how the hell did he get away with it bearing in mind that every one you speak to apparently knew about it for years or always knew there was something funny about him.

    Oh my Great Architect, they're all at it!

    Wait a minute - if Peter Sutcliffe is a mason what's he doing in broadmoor? Couldn't Jim fix it for him to become a Police Commissioner?

    Still, that Kill List, eh? What a great documentary.

    That picture is so wrong on so many levels.
    For example - When I have to visit a high secure hospital the checks are (rightly) super stringent and tight (see the Fallon report Ashworth Hospital)

    and on a side issue smoking is banned and Jimmy is allowed to pay scant regard to hospital policy

    and and and and

    that fucking tracksuit!!!!

    In this warped old world of ours they'll probably quadruple in value like a Hitler oil painting or a pair of Stalin's Y-fronts. My partner encountered loads of dodgy Savile stories during her years working at the BBC - their 'we are horrified' statement in relation to last nights programme was pretty ridiculous - as were Esther Rantzens tears. Surely even that 'Louis Theroux meets Jimmy' programme a few years back alluded to his penchant for young girls?

    I've now got this image of lots of ageing old radio 1 type DJs sitting with their mugs of Horlicks in front of their log fires terrified of what unpalatable revelations tomorrows tabloids might dredge up about their sordid past.

    ...and if anyone's interested in a pair of Stalin's Y-fronts I've got spares so just PM me - VG to VG+.

    jingle jangle fallout - from popbitch

    * Protestors in Scarborough have already defaced Savile's gold-coloured civic
    society plaque. Now there's rumours of a demonstration this weekend against
    the road named in Savile's honour.

    * The Youth Hostel Association are desperately trying to stop news
    agencies from using their logo in stories about the Haut de la Garenne
    hostel in Jersey. The YHA took it over from 2004-2009 but keep finding
    their logo attached to stories of Jimmy's visits there in the 1970s.

    * Dr William Oddie was rather peeved at the time that none of Sir Jim's
    obituaries mentioned that he was a practicing Catholic - branding it a
    'conspiracy of silence'. Bet he's rather glad of it now : link

    * Tabloid subeditors used to joke they remembered to spell Jimmy Savile
    with one L, "as that's where he would be heading if the stories they heard were true."

    * The tales of Alan "Fluff" Freeman's cornershop parties where various
    celebrities like Jimmy Savile and politicians like Ted Heath and Jeremy
    Thorpe would ply young boys with booze and drugs - seem to have started
    out as black propaganda in the 1970s designed to discredit the politicos.
    (See also: Sir Jim as ex-PM Heath's official procurer of boys from Hampstead Heath.)

    Wait a minute, are you absolutely sure the road hasn't been implicated in all this? I mean, look at 10 Rillington Place, you're not telling me that it didn't know what Christie was up to?

    If it is true then it might explain why he had hardly any records, probably all given away as 'gifts'.

    of course this old carry on started way back in the 40's




    though it all kicked of in the mid 70's









    remember the sadness when furry TV stars got involved too?



    and even Corrie's old timers were at it

    If I remember rightly, Stewpot's Pop Party has a version of Gary Giltter's 'I Love You Love Me Love' performed by the St Winifred's School Choir. I wish I was making this up.

    Too true. I was forced daily to be part of a ´harem' of 25-30 kids run by adult sados who made us do stuff like strip to our vest and pants and pretend to be an acorn growing into a tree, or insert recorders into our mouths, in return for worthless 'gold stars'

    I thought I'd blacked it out but now I recall that our sports teacher Mr Williams liked to look down all the boys shorts before kick off. 70's secondary state school education.

    It gets worse...

    A Bradford couple in their 80s have revealed their own secret about Sir Jimmy – by exposing him as a charity bike-ride cheat.

    William and Betty Taylor, of Laisterdyke, said they were in Otley some ten years ago when they spied the bleach-blond celebrity clamber from a limousine in a side street then join the cycle race in aid of the terminally-ill metres from the end.

    Speaking exclusively to the Telegraph & Argus, Mrs Taylor, 85, said: “My husband William, who’s 89, and I have never told anyone what we saw until now – because we thought nobody would believe us. “We had gone to watch the charity race in aid of St Gemma’s Hospice and were sitting on a wall up a side street reading a book and a newspaper.

    “Right in front was a great big car with bicycle handlebars poking out of the boot. A man got out, took out the bike and at the same time there was a puff of cigar smoke and Jimmy Savile stepped out with a coat on over a stupid pink and yellow cycling outfit.

    “His mate produced a sponge and dabbed water all over Jimmy’s face and hair, who then took off the coat and rode the bike down to the end of the side street. When a group of cyclists came past on the main road, the big fake just joined in.”


    Will the BBC also confirm the persistent rumours that Jim never actually fixed anything, leaving it instead to a team of researchers while he sat in a stupid chair smoking fat cigars and yodelling at Head Gardener and other terrified kiddies.
