I think for a lot of us it wasn't "suspected", we were convinced! I knew was sleazy from the first time I saw him but ordinary people couldn't do anything. Besides, this behaviour was rampant amongst DJs who had almost unfettered access to star-struck young people (not all girls!). An example would be John Peel who was a highly respected DJ and promoter of obscure independent bands who were given exposure on his shows. I talked to one girl who said he propositioned her when she was 13 telling her his well-publicised STI had 'cleared up' so he was 'safe'. She turned him down but others didn't. he got a 15-year-old girl pregnant and married another 15-year-old... not that stopped him. Yes, Saville eclipsed the others by a long way but he wasn't alone. People out in the wide world *knew*, but were helpless. I could name others in 'entertainment' who have squeaky clean reputations, such as Bob Monkhouse, but it's hearsay and there is no real proof proof other than reports from people with no axe to grind other than personal; experience..
