The Reckoning (Jimmy Savile tv programme)

[whatausername]

I know I'm nearly 2 months behind but has anyone else watched this?

It's well acted by the cast but bleeding heck it is creepy and infuriating and sad.

Was a great but hard watch. I thought Steve Coogan was fantastic, he played Saville almost to well!

The way they portrayed the culture that was prevalent at the time too was really good. For example when the girl that Savile raped killed herself and he was in an office being asked about the newspaper report by some senior BBC chap. Behind the BBC boss was a blown up picture of his predecessor (or was it that boss, it was in ep 2) smiling and completely surrounded by a group of pretty young women. Was a man like that ever going to take an allegation seriously.
