I’m sure Johnny won’t use it to embarrass them in the future.
I mean in hindsight you can make a connection but “I bet he’s into all kinds of seediness that we all know about, but are not allowed to talk about. I know some rumours.” could mean anything from he’s a fan of Bolivian marching powder to he solicits prostitutes.
It’s all a bit Nostradamus, very vague and only makes a modicum of sense in hindsight.
I’m not saying he didn’t mean to imply Saville was a paedophile but he didn’t say it and what he implied could refer to a wide range of activities. I know Johnny says that what he meant but the also claims to have created the Sex Pistols logo and has made other factual inaccuracies and terminological inexactitudes.

It was the 70’s. Sexual deviants were much more accepted than they are now and making claims like this had some very good probability
Courtney Love outed Harvey Weinstein and no one cared or took her seriously, for the same reasons they ignored Johnny.

Johnny “I can’t believe it’s not punk” Rotten and Piers “Fucking” Morgan.
Whoever thought of, attended or watched that show deserves to be flogged. What a couple of useless fucking cunts.
Spare me. John Lyndon is the most sanctimonious hypocrite out there. He did nothing more than anyone else about Saville, which was circulate some rumours but take it no further.
This clip seems to get circulated every few months as if it marks Lydon out as some especially courageous whistle blower. He did nothing special.
Came to the comments to find out, but who is Jimmy Savile, and what did he do? The clip says nothing. I’m sure I may regret asking…
FUCK BBC!
Did Neil young sang bout one Johnny rotten?
I personally knew and worked with a victim of Jimmy Saville and for Piers Morgan to sit there and act surprised by Johnny Rotten’s words is hypocritical at best.
Everyone knew what Jimmy Saville was up to. Including Piers Morgan. In fact, it wouldn’t be surprising if Piers Morgan himself has his dark secrets in association with those goings ons. The damage Jimmy Saville did to his victims was allowed and predicated by deep and wide connections that protected him. There is a reason why Princess Diana left the royal family and it had nothing to do with affairs or her supposed mental illness or her inability to deal with the Firm.
Jimmy Saville had enablers and those enablers dipped in the same pool, because they benefitted from it as well. Jeffrey Epstein compromised Prince Andrew to get closer to the royal family because he knew Prince Andrew had the same “tastes” he did, and he wished to penetrate that circle to gain more access to hungry clientele.
Reminds me of when Norm MacDonald was fired from SNL because he made OJ Simpson murder jokes, because the producer of the show was friends with the murderer.
Or Courtney Love saying in like 2005 that women should avoid Harvey Weinstein, and then wondering if she was going to be sued for saying it.
Damn, 146 BBC was a long time ago
Definitely not banned. That’s plain wrong.
All I can say, the guy sounds exactly like Keith Richards. I wonder if they are from the same area.
Name the bunch.
Johnny Rotten is/was low-key one of the smartest guys in the music business.
I’m totally out of the loop. I don’t know who any of these people are, except Piers Morgan. I have no idea what they’re talking about though.
piers morgan is a cunt.
