  An odd character but still very much part of British Pop History.

  Whenever I hear of Jimmy Saville I can't help but think of that strange photograph of him and Frank Bruno shaking hands with The Yorkshire Ripper.... Check out the handshake!

  Saw Jimmy do one of his famous solo charity runs once. Silver track suited and enjoying every cheer and shout from the odd person he passed on the road.
