And there was a picture of him and a priest, and the priest is looking at him like you look at your best friend.

Yeah.

Like somebody that you absolutely love, adore, and admire.

Yeah.

Yeah.

No, he got a papal knighthood from the fucking Vatican, which is, of course, you know, stripped away after he died.

Now, there were some people who were trying to speak openly about Jimmy Savile's crimes in the late 1970s, but those voices were unfortunately not the type that the average British citizen would listen to.

Famously, Johnny Rotten, lead singer of the Sex Pistols, gave an embarrassingly edgy interview to the BBC in 1978, the same year the Sex Pistols broke up, in which Rotten claimed that he wanted to make a film killing all the people he wanted to kill, starting with Mick

jack guy he's so edgy it's the fucking interview i didn't want to play it because i didn't want people to think less even less of johnny rotten because he sounds like a fucking asshole yeah he sounds like a fucking teenage like boy it's awful look he was he was you know he was probably 21 something like that when he did the interview he's also somehow the hero of this story yeah

Yeah, I mean, interestingly, the second person on Rotten's cringy kill list was Jimmy Savile.

Now, there's a lot of debate.

as to whether the interview actually aired or not.
