About this listen

Who was Jimmy Savile? More than anything he was a list of contradictions. He was a practising Catholic who raped young boys and girls and had sex with corpses. He was a God-fearing believer who participated in satanic rituals. He was an unprecedentedly generous charity fundraiser who was too tight to buy his own meals. He was a friend of princes and dukes who ate bacon sandwiches at his local greasy spoon. He was a peace activist who tied up troublemakers in his nightclubs and had them brutally beaten. He was a fairy godfather who hated children.

Through his relationships with the Royal Family, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and Pope John Paul, who gave him a Papal Knighthood, Savile built a powerbase that insulated him from prosecution. Raised to the heights of fame by the BBC, this evil genius preyed on the young and vulnerable for over five decades.

The Untouchable Jimmy Savile book series demolishes the mainstream media narratives portrayed in Netflix’s Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story and the BBC’s The Reckoning to show that Savile’s behaviour was enabled by the most powerful members of the establishment for whom he was a fixer and a procurer.

Shocking story

I'd heard lots of stuff about Jimmy Saville but this compiled all them in one book. Cannot believe he got away with it for so long and the way that so many seemingly covered it all up. This book had me hooked from the start but it mentions book 2 which I cannot find yet. Narration was great, hope to listen him read more books.

Wow. What a terrible story

Absolutely hooked from the beginning, really don’t understand the bad review about the narrator, I thought he was brilliant. Read a few of Shaun’s books on holiday. Always keeps me glued to the story

There’s a fascinating and horrible story in here

A fascinating and deeply disturbing story let down by its reliance on some known fantasists and conspiracy theorists. I’m almost surprised “Carl Beech” isn’t included. The crimes and the climate of coverup are only too real but unfortunately a few individuals who are either deluded, mentally ill or looking for notoriety, sympathy or money do try to insert themselves into high profile cases. They should not be pandered to in books like this. I found the satanic stuff unbelievable and an over egging of the pudding. The real tragedy is that the liars who jump on the bandwagon undermine the genuine testimony of the real victims and make it easier for those who want to bury the story to dismiss it all as false memories, blackmail, mental illness or attention seeking. The author has done a disservice to the victims by including a crackpot like Icke and so many claims unsupported by real evidence.

Nothing new, dodgy sources and dreadful narration. Avoid

First, using David Icke as a source blows any credibility out of the water. Second, please use a narrator who can read English with English pronunciation. Third, please don't just recycle everyone else's old material. Then I might read the follow up.

No worlds

We now know how bad he was, but we didn’t know he was this bad, you have to feel sorry for absolutely everybody involved in that man’s life

Unbelievable!

Highly recommend that everyone reads/listens to this book. The facts presented here are shocking and we owe it to people like Mr Attwood that we are being made aware of these monsters...
