Aged 81 (eta - sorry, 86. Details matter).

He's still several steps ahead in the dodginess stakes, despite the shenanigans we're having over politicians up to no good.

Did he ever serve a day in chokey?

Correct me if I'm wrong and more may emerge now, but my understanding was when they say he preferred the company of younger women it referred to women in their 20s?

Karima El Mahroug was only 16 when she started going to the parties, so the Saville comparison is appropiate

Was just about to say the same. He was charged with paying underage girls for sex, found guilty, but it was overturned on appeal. I think sex with underage girls was also referenced in his divorce case.

Like slick said, I’ll be amazed if a ton of dodgy af shit doesn’t come out now about him.

I'll never defend any fucker exploiting 16 year olds in this way, but it's quite tricky to equate this to Saville - I took Slick's comment to highlight that not everyone who has a 'good time' in life (in quotes as I'm not sure everyone would quite see Saville's jollies as a good time) represents a life well lived. Savile was a whole new level of depravity, and even more shocking for the complete and utter lack of protection for the victims.

In terms of Berlusconi sleeping with a 16 year old, quite a bit of nastiness around that case, including a witness dying a grisly death.

He was not a nice bloke.

Radiation poisoning which is a bit suspicious considering Vladimir and Silvio were good buddies and Vlad a regular attendee at Silvio's bunga bunga parties.
