Mr Gambaccini told ITV1’s Daybreak programme he had been waiting 30 years for the allegations about his former Radio 1 colleague to come out. Surrey police confirmed Sir Jimmy was interviewed under caution in 2007 about alleged abuse at the now-closed Duncroft Approved School for Girls, which he visited regularly. Crown prosecutors decided there was insufficient evidence to charge him. Speaking on the programme, Mr Gambaccini claimed that, at one point, Sir Jimmy was about to be exposed by a tabloid newspaper but quickly arranged an interview with a rival title, which resulted in preventing the negative article from being published. He said: ‘It comes out when he’s dead because Jimmy Savile had an imperial personality in showbusiness. ‘You just didn’t mess with Jim. He was the governor, because after all he had been the first great club DJ, he had been the originator of Top Of The Pops presentation, and you just let him have his turf.’ The Jim’ll Fix It star had raised millions of pounds over the years for his pet cause, Stoke Mandeville Hospital. Film maker Louis Theroux, who tried to unravel Sir Jimmy’s private life in a BBC programme, said: ‘The rumours seem to have been in some degree validated. My thoughts are with the victims. I hope they find peace.’
Read this in The Metro this morning which fairly incensed me Broadcaster Paul Gambaccini added to claims that Sir Jimmy Savile sexually abused children by saying the star used his charity work to stop his private life from being exposed.QuoteMr Gambaccini told ITV1’s Daybreak programme he had been waiting 30 years for the allegations about his former Radio 1 colleague to come out.

Makes him as bad as the perps I'd say.Quote from: apc2010 on October 04, 2012, 06:04:18 PMhttp://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2012/oct/04/freddie-starr-itv-injunction?newsfeed=true But not the sun so not sure if true ..........
