Some Things, Jim Can't Fix
-
Dead: Sir Jimmy Savile, at 84. People in America wouldn't know who he is, but he was a household word in England for decades, as a radio personality, but especially as an eccentric TV host, doing shows where he would go around granting wishes to people ("Jim'll Fix It") while sporting a tracksuit and a mop of bright white hair. He was also a major charity fundraiser. And he was also the first host of the iconic "Top of the Pops" on the BBC in 1964. Never married, lived with his mother and then, when she died, maintained her stuff as if she was still around (dry-cleaning her clothes every year). Weird legend. (Daily Telegraph)
