Screwing one's dead elderly mother? = hitting the trifecta for Sir Jim.
My intuition, informed by the evidence that he was a child rapist and necrophiliac and left-hand path occultist, is that he would have engaged in and abetted child sacrifice, murder and torture because... he could. These were societal lines to cross and for some people, crossing these lines probably resulted in 'joining a club'.
I agree completely. His brazenness and the media's and public's obtuseness in the matter just continue to amaze me. Though I did become familiar with Savile only after his death. Still, even correcting for hindsight, his creepiness is skin-crawling, especially for a man working primarily with children.
To the journalist's credit, she does amp up the disquieting details towards the end of the article and her remarks posted under the original article clarify somewhat the ambiguous tone in the article. I thought this a telling paragraph:
Touring the Stoke Mandeville wards with him is a disconcerting experience: when he coos over a young woman paraplegic “A-ha, now I can have my way with you, my dear!” one can only pray that she appreciates the joke.
I remember the most frightening thing anyone ever said to me was when I was being wheeled in for a back operation and the junior doctor remarked cheerily, “We’ll have you walking again in two weeks – and if we don’t we’ll send Jimmy Savile to visit you.” Much as I admire Sir James Savile, he is someone I never ever want to be visited by.
