Until then it had been only subliminal, but as I leafed through the photos in Jimmy Saville's book I suddenly realised what it was I was being reminded of. It was Jimmy Saville himself - or rather, his style.

In nearly all the pictures he wore tracksuits coupled with chunky gold jewellery. As I fanned through his career, the tracksuits became more flamboyant (handmade, in fact), the jewellery bigger, the look darker, meaner, with wraparound shades.
