This was the interview where Savile came straight out and said that he didn't have emotions.
He said he had no feelings for other people, and he had never had feelings for other people.
He's all but admitting he was a sociopath.
And he said this in 1991 on the BBC.
It's 20 years before his crimes came to light.
Yeah, he says, I say yes to everything.
Yes.
Yeah, but he would be very menacing and intimidating.
But some might call it illegal.
That's one of my favorite things.
And it's always like they just know British journalists, God damn, they're fucking vicious.
Man, nothing's scarier than a British journalist.
Being born in 1926, Jimmy Savile was a part of the World War II generation.
But while many English families struggled during the war, the Saviles did just fine as the Nazis did their best to bring England to its knees because Vince Savile was deeply connected to the Leeds black market.
Jimmy was also involved in that black market.
And he claimed that when he was 14 years old, he began hanging out at a dangerous Leeds dance hall called the Mecca Locarno.
Now, the Mecca dance halls were a chain that had locations all over England.
They were very popular.
And as the war dragged on, the Mecca dance halls in each English city became focal points for the communities, a place where everyone could go and relax and maybe forget about the Blitz for a second.
But it just so happened that the community in Leeds, it was as sleazy as they came.
