It urged anyone with information to contact their local police. Five women alleged that Sir Jimmy sexually assaulted them as teenagers in an ITV documentary on Wednesday. It featured historic accounts, which detailed how the presenter allegedly targeted girls in his BBC dressing room and private Rolls-Royce car during the 1970s. The assessment would be made the Serious Case Team of the Child Abuse Investigation Command under the leadership of Det Supt David Gray, the force said. A spokesman said: "Our priority will be to ensure a proportionate and consistent policing response putting the victims at the heart of our inquiries. "It is too early to say how many individual allegations there are, and we will be making contact with all those concerned in due course." [B]BBC investigation[/B] Scotland Yard said it would be working closely with the BBC's internal investigations unit, which is responsible for the safety and security of BBC staff. This week it emerged that Surrey, Sussex and Jersey Police had received complaints about Sir Jimmy but concluded there was not enough evidence to pursue them. The Met is currently considering a number of allegations including a rape claim from some years ago referred to it by Surrey Police, while Northamptonshire Police have been contacted by two alleged victims. Scotland Yard was appointed to lead the assessment after the Association of Chief Police Officers (Acpo) looked at the claims. An Acpo spokeswoman said: "Following an initial assessment of a number of allegations made against the late Sir Jimmy Savile, a decision has been made to appoint a lead force to manage the police and child protection response. The Metropolitan Police Service has been appointed as the lead force." When allegations from the ITV documentary surfaced earlier this week, the BBC issued a statement saying it was "horrified" by suggestions that assaults took place on BBC premises, "or have been carried out by anyone working at the BBC". They said they would offer "full support" to any police investigation. Earlier, the BBC said there was "no evidence" to suggest Newsnight was urged to drop an investigation into allegations of sexual assault by Sir Jimmy. David Jordan, the BBC's director of editorial policy and standards, said any interference from BBC management would only have made reporters "more determined to do it". "I don't think it's credible... to suggest that senior managers could influence the conduct of an investigation of that sort," he told BBC Radio 4's Today programme. Sir Jimmy Savile died in October 2011, at the age 84. The face of Top of the Pops in the 1960s, and host of 1970s TV favourite, Jim'll Fix It, he was knighted in 1990 for his prolific charity work.[/quote]

uh okay, don't see the big deal about this though

good thread title

[QUOTE=frankie penis;37910535]let the guy rest. if people wanted something to be done about it, they should have came out when he was alive.[/QUOTE] That's like saying a child molested by her father when she was 10 has to shut up when she brings it to light in her 30s. That's utterly dumb.

I find it a bit strange that theyve only brought it up now that hes dead. Whats their aim? Money from his family when Jimmy isnt around to defend himself?

I heard they just found Jimmy Saviles diary. Apparently his last entry was 10 years old.

If he were alive then there's a chance he would have admitted to it, then buggered off to live with Roman Polanski. No chance of him confessing now.

Girls - pre-pubescent, feminine itching? Apply some Saville-on

[QUOTE=RobbL;37912626]I don't agree with him either but you're just being a dick for calling him a horrible person[/QUOTE] I'm calling him out on the fact that he's completely ignornant to the view of those abused, let alone the fact he's actually suggesting we just drop the investigation altogether. If Saville abused people, we [I]need[/I] to know.
