I distinctly remember back in the late 80s (old elephant brain, me) watching Starr on the Wogan show. Muhammed Ali was also on at the same time, and was obviously suffering the onset of Parkinson's Disease. Muhammed's once quick, sharp mind and speech had become slow - it was sad to see.
I was disgusted at the way F Starr ridiculed Ali and took the rise out of him. He laughed in that vulgar brash way of his, and aped Ali in such a denigrating way. I was surprised Wogan didn't intervene.....it was appalling.
So I never liked Starr after that little insight into his true nasty character.
I then saw him on Wife Swap where he displayed his misognystic character excepionally well. He seemed to dislike Sam Fox immensely, and even said something along the lines of how she was a lesbian and 'it was wrong'.
Well, the stump-legged short misfit should look at himself.
He is a paedophile.
And the way he became outraged and panicky when he realised he was about to be exposed.....trying to get a High Court judge to button the lips of the press, and calling the 14-year-old girl he tried to sexually abuse 'a nutter' and 'a liar' just poves what a vile, nasty little dwarf of a man he is.
Of course, the little coward denied the girl's claim, and said he'd never met her and he'd never been to the BBC. And he has the audacity to call HER a liar!! The vile little man.
I hope he goes to prison, and you can bet your life she wasn't the only girl he tried to abuse...I guarantee it.
I hope the court sends him to clink, and he has to cough up 75% of his estate as compensation to all the girls he violated and abused.
And as for his buddy, Garybaldi Glitter - he too should go to prison - and have all his assetts siezed to go towards therapy and compensation for his victims.
Jimmy Saville - he must be stripped of his title, even though he's dead, and all the money from his estate should go to his victims, too.
I'd also haul in all those executives and employers who covered the whole filthy business up.
Does anyone else have any thoughts on it?
