Now, it didn't take long before Jimmy Savile figured out that the plaza ballroom could essentially work as a constant pipeline for victims of sexual abuse.

According to a former employee, there were lines of teenage girls waiting to, quote, chat with Jim in his office at the back of the plaza.

As to why this former employee didn't do or say anything, they begged off like so many others tangentially involved with Jimmy Savile throughout his career.

This former employee said they didn't know what went on behind the doors of Jimmy's office, but they did know that Jimmy Savile was a man.

You know, wink, wink, know what I mean?

Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean?

You know what I mean?

You know what he was doing back there?

Do you, Eddie?

What?

Know that he's a man?

Yeah, what do you think that that meant?

I don't know what he was doing back there, but I know he was a man.

The rumors about Jimmy's crimes were so prevalent that the police would stop by the plaza on occasion with questions about why there were so many young girls there at all times.

But Jimmy always had a way to deflect.

His go-to was to ask the cops if they had daughters who came to the plaza, which is a big fucking move.

But if the cops said yes, Savile would ask the cops, hey, would you rather your daughters were here safe with me or being out there preyed on all the scumbags of Manchester?

The cops would look at him and they'd see how odd he was, see how strange he was.

And they'd say, I guess you go away.

Jimmy continued abusing young girls en masse, even after the police had to question him after it was reported that Saville had been hanging around the public toilets.
