The joke is being missed by many. At the time Savile was advertising British Rail "Let the Train Take the Strain" the protaganist was angry about the terrible journey. Many felt Savile was creepy but the enormity of his disgusting behaviour wasn't known until later.

While that is true EVERYONE at the BBC. Especially the higher-ups. ALL knew he (and others) were at it. In fact, if you missed it, the Savile case was used to blind the public from all the other abusers and those who let it go on. PS: Heres a fun game for you. Look up the art scuptures, located throughout the original BBC building (the one they now use). Note the artists 'muses' in his work. And the fact (back in the 1920/30's) that he was a known serial abuser of the young. In fact, one guy tried to destroy one of the statues (outside the building), done by this artist. I believe, the media didn't mention the actual artists background/crimes. To finish, the BBC ...still have ALL that art work on display. Throughout the building. Its all 'list art' now. How nice. Hiding things ..'in plain sight'.

Even the Jim’ll Fix It badge necessitated every “successful” kid at least getting Jim up close and personal with them. A master manipulator in plain sight. This monster used Jim’ll Fix It, Top of the Pops, charity work, Radio 1, and anything else he could deploy to create a celebrity smokescreen/attraction.

He used the train to get between his homes in Leeds, Scarborough (pronounced Scar - bru and Glen Coe) also London. He was well known enough he used to say 'This is the age of the train' , before they said 'let the train take the strain' . In the sketch the Scottish feller had spent 9 hours on a train. Enters a BR caff (emblazoned with the BR logo) We think he wants a meal, but is merely getting enough slop together to throw at the leering ugly mug of Sir Jimmy the Paedo Savile!

@@Cloughjordan23 A ban, no. But the part of the interview he gave which is in that video was not broadcast at the time. All interviews are edited for broadcast, so whilst it might be somewhat OTT to call it censorship too, it's most definitely true that many people inside and outside the BBC knew what Saville was getting up to, or had heard those rumours, and they were prevented from doing anything because Saville was too powerful. No, Johnny didn't reveal any of the rumours, but he was careful not to step over a libellous line, as he says there. Watching a show about TOTP in the seventies (I think it was) there were recollections from people who were regular audience attendees on the show back then - applying for tickets when their favourite bands released singles in the hope of seeing them - and it was stated that they would hope and pray that Saville would not be the presenter on those occasions, because they knew from experience how creepy the guy was. Back in the days before long overdue reform in the last decade, UK libel laws were routinely used by rich and powerful people to, basically, silence people saying things they didn't want to be heard; and it didn't necessarily have to be libellous either. It was a case of money not just talking but shouting down those without riches. www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/libertycentral/2011/mar/10/english-libel-law-simon-singh

@@MBM1117727 Trust me, Jimmy Savile was never popular. The BBC gave him popular, prime time TV shows to front like 'Top of the Pops' and 'Jim'll Fix It', great formats produced to the highest standard. Those shows were absolute gifts for a predatory pervert to enjoy power over others, and access victims. But the man himself was beloved by precisely NO ONE. The Savile scandal is the story of a highly dangerous psychopath and malignant narcissist at the extreme end of the scale, able to exploit and dominate people to commit heinous crimes against at least hundreds possibly thousands of victims, unpunished (though not undetected) for 60 years. I was a TV producer/celebrity booker for 20 years, from 1990-2000 and was never once asked by any TV show I worked on (chat shows, entertainment shows, reality shows etc for every broadcaster and umpteen independent production companies), to book Savile. Why not? Because it was an open secret in TV he was not only a rapist and child molester, but a necrophile. If I, who had never worked with Savile, had heard he had a key to the morgue at the hospital/psychiatric facilities he ran to enjoy sex with corpses, you can be sure MANY people knew. It maybe wasn't common knowledge among the general public, because Savile's victims were the most vulnerable and least able to report him, and he was protected by powerful people at the top level. But as this TV comedy sketch proves, the public perception of Jimmy Savile was entirely negative. Had he been 'popular' as you suggest, the punchline to this sketch would not have worked.

On the world service this morning they did an interview with a former radio Caroline DJ, they failed to mention Jimmie's involvement with radio Caroline which lead to his employment at the BBC. I wonder if any girls bodies ever got tossed from that ship as so many of the people that worked as DJs went on to serve jail time

Error: JS's "involvement" was with Radio LUXEMBOURG (not Caroline). I highly doubt that Caroline's founding-manager, Ronan O'Rahilly (since deceased) would have had any time for someone of his character and presentation style in any case. Caroline was at that time the epitome of anti-establishment. Luxembourg was instead corporate and locked in with the major record companies of the time - which wouldn't play Ronan's bands etc. - prompting him to start his own independent radio station - at sea, beyond the (then) UK law (since changed).

So, a little story. I met a guy who ended up being really good friend of mine. The first time we met was around the mid nineties when he was due to.make a kids dream come true on jim'll fix it. Ill never forget what he said to me. He said savile was a "known paedophile". Taken back, i asked what he meant. He said his manager had told him as it was the worst kept industry secret, and he'd been told to watch where he puts his hands. Ill never forget that chat. They all knew!

"Battad" - unlike you southern English folk, Scots don't drop the "r" all the time, but nice try. Scots tend to drop "t" and "d" instead. 😊
