Thats not what anyone is suggesting, the point that is being made is that in the context of the time it was conveniently ignored - part of the problem is that you are using the term "kiddie", I don't think anyone is accusing Savile of abusing small children and as I have already pointed out, in the context of the time the law was regarded as having a grey area prior to the actual age of consent, a 14 year old girl who looked 17 would certainly fall into that trap.
I'll reiterate, he was never my cup of tea, a self-publicist, a presenting style that I found irritating, and after the Theroux documentary a confirmation that he was mentally not quite all there - do I believe the accusers, yes I do, and in the context of the times I understand how it happened and how it was ignored.
There will be lots more.
