correct me if I'm wrong but I believe shows like this are supposed to present both points a view from what I'm seeing it's a very one sided view on the situation

re: Operation Yewtree
 

I believe they asked Savile to comment, but he was 'unavailable' (allegedly). :erm:

re: Operation Yewtree
 

Not in this case ,it was made specifically to show his guilt

re: Operation Yewtree
 

just like fox news :(

re: Operation Yewtree
 

I do find it weird how some of the victims description of events make it sound like they were with him all the time.

and I really think that other people. be they celebrities or otherwise, had to be involved one way or another.

re: Operation Yewtree
 

I'm not far from where he used to live in Leeds about 5 mins in a car...can't say I ever saw anything odd about him when I saw him jogging around the local park unless he was hunting for kids.

However my wife used to work at the local Ice Cream stall some 18 years or so ago and she said that when he was out jogging he usually had a load of males with him so I would be more inclined to think he was the other way.

I'm sure if this was true it would have come out a long time ago...fair enough he may have had a "status" attached to him but in this day and age it doesn't matter who you are nobody has weight any more.

This is a load of tosh they either want publicity or after some ££ cash.

re: Operation Yewtree
 

so one sided no right of reply at all shocking stuff :(

re: Operation Yewtree
 

Unless it was your daughter making the allegations.

but to have blurred reconstructions going on all the way through. is a but silly.

re: Operation Yewtree
 

Careful mate ,the way the rumor mill is working by tomorrow morning those men he was jogging with will have evolved into his close nit gang of peodos out planning the next hit

re: Operation Yewtree
 

now watching Esther Rantzen bit of a hypocrite could have said something years ago

re: Operation Yewtree
 

Well, guilty or not guilty?

It was a bit dramatised. the blurred reconstructions. the constant filming of him in a dim lit room concentraing on a laptop screen.

but all that aside. there's the video evidence of how Saville would always be groping the girls/women. and his comments and views on what Gary Glitter did.

re: Operation Yewtree
 

No, there's people who know far more about it than I do and it's pointless anyway. The police didn't do anything about the first one due to lack of evidence and will just say that they don't act on rumours.

They'll probably be too busy anyway, enforcing the smoking ban or catching motorists going 1MPH over the speed limit!

re: Operation Yewtree
 

The smoking ban is enforced by local council employees acting on health and safety grounds.

Police usually prosecute at 10% + 1 over the limit, at which speed you are very likely posing a risk to to your own health and that of other road users.

It's just as well they don't act on rumours, though, as a rumour such as the one you're peddling could destroy someone's reputation and their means of making a living.

re: Operation Yewtree
 

Does it matter if he's guilty though?

re: Operation Yewtree
 

In which case if he IS guilty you're assisting an offender in my book.
