We're going to need to ramp this up a little bit.
Well, the second of Jimmy's three favorite facilities was the National Spinal Injury Center at Stoke Mandeville.
Many of the patients there were paralyzed either temporarily or permanently.
And investigations found that Saville abused at least 63 people connected to Stoke Mandeville over the decades he spent there.
Although the real number, again, is certainly far, far, far higher.
Saville wormed his way into Stoke Mandeville in 1968 while making an episode of Saville's Travels.
And even before he began taping the episode, he digitally penetrated a young patient's vagina after asking her to come sit in his lap.
He got away with it.
So Saville knew that he had found another playground.
Stoke Mandeville is where Savile infamously volunteered as an overnight porter, transporting both the living and the dead in the middle of the night when no one else was watching.
According to several staff, Savile was creepy and particularly loved taking bodies to the mortuary.
Here, of course, is where we get into the necrophilia.
Oh, yeah, we do.
Jimmy Savile gave an interview in the early 70s in which he revealed why he loved working at hospitals and specifically why he loved working at the morgue.
He said that he had an aptitude for dead people, that when he was holding somebody that just died, he was filled with tremendous love.
Apparently, the person doing the interview didn't ask him why the fuck he was holding dead bodies.
When is it happening?
Do the families know that you're holding these dead bodies?
I usually just grab at them.
Yeah, I just like the lift and drop.
