This sorry excuse for a man was a practicing Pedophile, employed by the salubrious BEEB, a kind of wunderkind and loved by unsuspecting millions, so the media has choked up in the UK. Its big news over there now! The BEEB covered up this daemon madman's lust for children for years.

Jimmy Savile was a Papal Knight and a Knight of Malta. The head of the Catholic Church in England and Wales has written to the Vatican to ask if Jimmy Savile's papal knighthood can be posthumously removed, the Church has confirmed. So far nothing has been said if there are moves to strip him of his title as Knight of Malta.
Jimmy Savile is listed as one of the recipients of the Order pro merito Melitensi of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta published in the Annual Report of the British Association, Sovereign Military Order of Malta, 2010
The Order of Merit pro Merito Melitensi of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta is a knightly order of merit established in 1920. It is awarded to men and women who have brought honour and prestige to the Sovereign Military Order of Malta or actively promoted Christian values or works of charity in the Christian tradition as defined by the Roman Catholic Church.
Although, strictly speaking, honorees become knights or dames, they are not invested in a religious ceremony as knights and dames of the Order of Malta itself (which is a military order of chivalry); therefore the Order pro Merito Melitensi (sometimes "Melitense") may be bestowed upon non-Catholics.
Conferees include prominent statesmen, such as Ronald Reagan (who received it while still in office) and George H.W. Bush. The Order of Merit has certain ranks (such as commendatore or knight commander) now rare in the Order of Malta, and has no nobiliary grades. In this way it is comparable to numerous orders of merit around the world, including the Papal orders. Unlike knights and dames in the Order of Malta itself, those decorated with the Order of Merit do not swear any oath.
The Archbishop of Westminster, the Most Reverend Vincent Nichols, asked Church officials in Rome to investigate whether Savile can be stripped of his papal knighthood, recognising the "deep distress" of the late presenter's abuse victims.
Meanwhile, a statement released by Savile's nephew, Roger Foster, described the family's "despair and sadness" over the revelations, adding "our feelings are in turmoil as we await the next turn of events".
'Exceptional request'
Savile was made a Knight Commander of St Gregory the Great by Pope John Paul II for his charity work. It is one of the highest awards the Pope can bestow.
There is no established process to remove a papal knighthood posthumously because the honour dies with the recipient.
However, a spokesman confirmed Archbishop Nichols "wrote last week to the Holy See asking the competent office to investigate whether the papal honour awarded to Jimmy Savile for his charitable works could be posthumously removed and its effects nullified".
The spokesman said the Archbishop's letter was written "recognising the deep distress of all those who have suffered abuse and the disquiet at Mr Savile's name remaining on papal honours lists".
He said the move was "clearly an exceptional request".
"The Church invites all those who have suffered abuse to come forward to the appropriate authorities," he added.
The Metropolitan Police has launched a criminal inquiry into the allegations against the former BBC presenter and DJ, who died in October 2011 aged 84, describing him as a predatory sex offender.
They are following 400 lines of inquiry and believe he may have sexually abused many young people and children, sometimes on BBC premises, over a 40-year period.
BBC under fire
The BBC has been criticised for failing to stop the alleged abuse during Savile's long career at the corporation.
It is also under fire for axing a 2011 Newsnight report into the claims and its handling of the subsequent scandal.
On 13 October, BBC director general George Entwistle apologised to the women involved and announced two inquiries surrounding the allegations.
An inquiry into why the Newsnight report was dropped is already under way, led by the former head of Sky News, Nick Pollard. The results are expected in December.
The second investigation will look at whether culture and practice at the BBC at the time enabled Savile to carry out the sexual abuse of children.

I heard about him....child molester. Makes me vomit.
There were a bunch of allegations [I was there and remembered them] around the 60's and the 70's over a bunch of these creeps and no one appreciated the depth of these cases..no its all flooding out on the floor and pointing to a culture that existed at the BBC [may still exist, not known as yet]..which is opening up a can of worms. A huge mess concerning Freemasonry and its members, mostly all perverts.
The reputation of the BBC has irrevocably been blackened by all this mess!!
This "Masonic Sickness" goes even deeper in that allegations of Paedo'Rings were set up and necrophila, buggery and other vile practises are now emerging...[stay tooned]
