The brat was born at Stoke Mandeville, she was born very sick and we spent all of our time there, in turns.

Saville was still alive at the time, but it was all surfacing in the news.

Walking through the hospital where the Jimmy's ward was, and it was business as usual. I couldn't see how people could just carry on, when it was becoming apparent this ward had been created for the reasons it had.

I have no interest in watching this Coogan thing, though it won't be half the story anyway. * +

Sadly I always enjoyed Jim'll fix it. Mind you at that age I never had any knowledge of adult things.
Before he was exposed a mate of mine said he had heard serious rumors,I was gobsmacked tbh.
It's the same with Garry Glitter in that it's easy to see now in retrospect.

Yeah, pretty much the same here, I was too young to be aware of anything like that, it was just what was on the telly at the time. I remember he was regularly made fun of by comedians and impressionists for his 'eccentricity' but it wasn't until later on and I was well into my teens that I started getting the creepy vibes from him, then hearing the rumours and realising what some of the 'jokes' about him were hinting at, or in some cases made perfectly obvious what they implied. And yes, hindsight is a wonderful thing(nod). * +

I am quite curious about Steve coogan's performance in this because i think he's great.but have probably decided i wouldn't be able to stomach it really

And yeah,Savile always came across as unpleasant

My thoughts too ...I like Coogan and I think it's brave to do it but I can't bring myself to watch it yet ...and Saville always made my skin crawl * +

He had a lot of people scared,ordinary nurses,regular people etc.
Imagine being a nurse at Stoke Mandeville and knowing what he is up to but not being able to tell..as it may harm many more children.

You are never not able to rectify the situation.
Only too cowardly.
That's your choice, but don't pretend it's anything other than cowardice.
any of them could have killed him as he deserved (good)

Not everyone can bring themselves to kill someone.
Not everyone can afford to go to prison for a very long time and lose their own family etc.
However the least some folk should have done is brought it all out into the open. More insistently,gone to different authorities,Newspapers etc. *
