My sister went to fashion design college in the nineties and you should hear the stories she heard about Prince Andrew being gay. Some virtually from the horse's mouth. Rumours schmumours.

Such a heart-warming image: Jimmy S, Maggie, Dennis, Mark, Pinochet, Lloyd-Webber, Ronnie Raygun, Jim Davidson, Bernard Manning, William Hague, and the rest of the Chequers Glee Club, all singing May old acquaintance be forgot.
Wish I could forget.
Epitaph: Jimmy S — Best of a Bad Bunch.

'Dear Jim, Can you fix it for me to get out of prison, Regards P Sutcliffe (yorks ripper).' Admittedly Bruno looks a little unsure there. He probably thought it was DLT.

I'm sure I've told everyone about the time he invited me to share his sleeper on the night train to Fort William.

Ya sure he wasn't just there to open a gym built in Broadmoor (home for the insane) thanks to charitable donations etc...? oy vey... No. Wait. As it says on the internet: I would say that is definitely a masonic handshake, if you notice they both have the thumb in the exact same position.
And more often than not people who do a lot for charity tend to only do it to create an image as bein a good guy, so they people will never think they are up to no good in private. Prime examples bein Bill Gates.... (C/o The David Icke Forums).

I'm not sure about 'opening a gym' but rumour has it there were 'many openings for Jim!' But I'll say no more...

Well, you could hardly say less!
Speak up, man, or forever hold your peace.
What could be nastier than unmentioned accusations? -- which we must assume are both true and horrific in nature....

Really — could it be worse than eleven consecutive Hogmanays with the Mother of all Oxymora? * ______________ * "Lady" Thatcher. Geddit?

A few weeks ago, until Radio 2 had that Jimmy Young programme where he was "in conversation" with Ken Bruce, I wondered if old JY was going to be next. Looks like I got the wrong "Jimmy"!
Talking of "Whatever happened to...." The real Leslie Philips has just joined Twitter! - I say!

Sir Jimmy 'was no loner', says friend Howard Silverman
Sir Jimmy Savile was "no loner", according to a close friend the veteran broadcaster was best man for. Howard Silverman, 59, was talking after Sir Jimmy died at his home in Leeds, on Saturday. Mr Silverman said those who claimed the 84-year-old did not mix with people when the cameras were off "didn't know him".
A book of condolence to Sir Jimmy has been set up in Savile's Hall, opposite the Royal Armouries Museum in the city.
Mr Silverman, a city hairdresser, said he became a close friend of Sir Jimmy's after they met jogging on the streets of Leeds. "All his pals, everyone of them, were just like me - an ordinary geezer," he said. He and Sir Jimmy used to "laugh at the stories people came out with" in the media. Talking to BBC Radio Leeds, Mr Silverman said that every Friday morning Sir Jimmy held what was known as the FMC, or Friday Morning Club, at his flat.
Friends of Sir Jimmy would be invited to go to his flat and sit around a big table laden with tea, cakes and whisky. Enveloped in the host's cigar smoke the old friends would reminisce and chat the morning away.
Mr Silverman said: "If you saw that no one would say he didn't have pals."

So many rumours surrounded that man. The one I'd heard was not that he was a paeodphile, but that he was a necrophiliac.

He used to serve tea at the hospital a neighbour worked in: she was a trainee nurse. This must have been in the late 1970s and he liked to have a laugh and a joke: I gather this didn't go down well with exhausted nurses, who would growl "just cut the c..p and give me my tea"
