When that disrespectful movie about Sharon Tate's murder was made , the director/ people involved never gave a crap about how upsetting it was for the sister . it wasn't handled sensitively at all. So I'm not sure this Savile drama is a good idea, but we'll see . |

There's that as well which I hadn't even thought of. I find this abhorrent in general but it being made by the BBC is just on another level really isn't it. They knew what he was.

Again, I personally feel if something like this is being done, it's one thing to have an in-depth documentary series with dramatised/acted out sections (as is quite common in documentaries these days) but turning it into a full drama series is something quite different. So no... I honestly don't think they're necessary. That goes for other similar series' that have been made in the past. The dramatisation of the Shannon Matthews story was ****ing gross too, made by the BBC, and I imagine this will be along the same lines. |

If BBC staff are featured in it finding out about his crimes, be prepared for lots of " mg: mg: ", instead of the more accurate "Oh jeez this is all coming out is it". He clearly had power and influence, and what he was up to was quite clearly an open secret.

Did John Lyndon get banned from the BBC for trying to speak out against Jimmy Saville in the 70's?

I can’t imagine there are many people left at the Beeb who worked with Saville? And they didn’t write the script

the more i think about this, the worse it gets. The BBC will be selling this drama world wide as they always do. So they are in effect profiting from a predator that they enabled for decades

Also wasn't it enough that the Discovery channel released a documentary about Saville ?. Why do we need a full drama aswell let alone by the BBC of all broadcasting channels .

The BBC and all such TV broadcast platforms make most of their money from murder. Rarely will a hit drama not be about it. Line of Duty etc.
Why? Because we love to watch them. David Tennant just got a lot of plaudits from his Dennis Nilson one and Martin Clunes starred in one about that taxi driver who hammered girls to death |

It's still fresh in people's heads , it adds another level of raw insensitivity to the whole thing aswell . As mentioned it's been what only 10 years ? since it was revealed what a disturbed creep Savile really was .
Maybe they should have waited longer , and then made sure the victims and people involved were ok with it ? . But as i said is it even necessary to make a drama . |

However distasteful it might be....people will watch it. Just like we watch dramas about serial killers...where often children are involved.

I'm sure he will be great. He's an excellent actor.
