    In your opinion, yes.

    Although, there does seem something peculiar here.

    Setting aside the fact that like you say those were very different days indeed, there's a world of difference between marrying someone you love, and groping someone you've just met.

    Are you talking about the Coleen Nolan photo?

    Although given the circumstances, our minds are more persuaded to believe that he was "groping" her in the photo - is there any evidence to confirm this - or was it just a sort of a tight cuddle?

    Coleen Nolan on the subject.

    Coleen Nolan says Jimmy Savile made her feel uncomfortable as a teen

    LOOSE Women star has chosen to speak out now because she feels it is important people listen to women who say they were abused by telly icon.

    I WAS horrified when I read in the papers the stories of women who say they were raped and abused by Sir Jimmy Savile as children.

    I had my own uncomfortable situation with him in the 1970s, when I was just 14.

    What happened to me was nothing compared to these other women’s situations but if I’d been alone with him under some different circumstances, it could have been much worse than it was.

    Certainly he made me feel very uncomfortable and I don’t really want to go into detail about it now because this story is not about me – it’s about those poor girls who are finally feeling able to speak out.

    After my experience, I didn’t make a big fuss about it because no one did back then. It was a different world.

    That is why I feel it is so important that these women’s stories are listened to now.

    Because, back in the 1960s and 70s, abuse of children just wasn’t really discussed.

    That’s why so many perverted people got away with it while so many children were forced to suffer in silence.

    One of the best things of the past few decades is that greater openness in our society means that abuse is much less likely to go unchallenged or covered up.

    Why shame on them?

    I mean what could they have done - "Good evening sergeant, I'd like to report the fact that Jimmy Saville is a bit *... creepy" ?

    It did always strike me as unusual that he never married or seemed to have any long term relationships.(that i am aware of)
    That said, i do sort of go along with the idea that it is easy to attack someone that cannot defend themselves.....so until i see reasonable evidence he actually was a bit weird, i will try not to judge him.

    I agree with that.

    Having said that, I haven't watched/read anything else on this.

    3:54 you can definately see his hand is around her rib area.
    would never get away with it now, but it doesnt look comfortable thing for a 14 year old to go through

    There is a difference in being a bit creepy,and having suspicions of him being a paedo.

    Yes,report him and let the Cops investigate.

    I used to be scared of him when i was wee. Couldn't watch him on tv haha:52:

    He comes across as a bit of a weirdo. The program with Louis Theroux was a bit odd.

    The program on Wednesday should be interesting.
