Thanks for the link Xochi...Some of the girls he assaulted ranged from 9 years old to sixteen years old..

Just read that .....................9-16 year olds It beggars belief doesn't it? I can't find the words TBH .............................disgusting doesn't even begin to cover it.

Good news for his victims though, surely? 

Exactly right Bliz!

I feel so sorry for Saville's victims in a way, because he avoided being exposed until after his death. I wouldn't care if Stuart hall was 100 years old, if he did the crime, then he should be brought to justice, so his victims, can finally come to terms with what he allegedly did to them.

Presumably these women contacted the police independently of each other, making the prosecution's case stronger. One good thing to come out of all this is victims finally feeling that they have a chance for justice.

OMG yes I remember..Very odd.

Were you listening to it Senora? There was an intake of breath in the radio studio and I was like WTH . To make jokes on radio knowing you've perpretated abuse - takes a sick mind.

BBC Broadcaster Stuart Hall has been sentenced to 15 months in jail for sexually abusing under age girls.

Hall, 83, of Wilmslow, Cheshire, admitted 14 offences that occurred between 1967 and 1985.

One of the girls was nine-years-old when Hall assaulted her, Preston Crown Court heard.

The BBC said it was "appalled" that some of Hall's crimes took place in connection with his work at the corporation.

Hall's barrister Crispin Aylett, in mitigation, told the court the former broadcaster had "all of 13" victims compared to Jimmy Savile's 1,300.

One count of rape will lie on the court file.

How on earth is that mitigation? 13 counts - and apparently one of the victims said she knew there were others who chose not to come forward. Mitigation because he wasn't as prolific as Savile ? Never heard of anything quite so stupid and insensitive.
