Here he is Diana, surely you must have heard of him in the States? Did they ever show 'Jim'll Fix It' over there?

Further to the above. his catch phrase was 'See you Guys and Gals' then he made some sort of weird yodelling noise, a strange eldritch sound that curdled the blood. I cannot describe it to you, but anyone who has heard Jimmy Savill doing it, would recognise it immediately. It is true that he is now Sir Jimmy Saville.

He was rightly knighted, as he has done many great things with his time and money. I am happy to read that he is still with us.

I bet we could find him and his yodle on YouTube

My English Setter's name was Taramber White Pearl---AKA Pepper , sadly gone to doggy Heaven some time ago.  By the way, she only needed the glasses for reading! 

I was lucky enough to own her Uncle at the same time. His name was Taramber Triple Tipple and he was extremely handsome (and boy,didn't he know it!)

Why isn't  Jimmy Saville/Michael wearing his shell suit ? perhaps he's gone to iron it.Foot in mouth(Poe even provides Jimmy Saville Smileys)
