The Paedo Piper

~ The Oldie December issue cover ~

Gosh, I hope The Oldie Ed follows thru his idea of giving me an 'Expat' corner in the mag.

Again and again and again, congrats to the mag for its part in breaking the Jimmy Savile scandal way back in the March issue.

'Only The Oldie was prepared to publish Miles Goslett's story about Newsnight dropping the Jimmy Savile report,' said the Editor, 'and this has finally been recognised by a number of papers, including the New York Times.'

To celebrate The Oldie's continued position at the forefront of journalism, herewith the December issue's cover with David Stoten's illustration of Sir Jimmy as The Paedo Piper being sheltered by the BBC.
