A
famous person from Leeds, Sir Jimmy is also known as one of the
London Marathon's oldest regular competitors, hence the catchphrase of
impressionists everywhere (doing Jimmy Savile) has become:
"Now then, now then, joggy joggy, jangle jangle, jewelry jewelry"
Sir James has a nasty habit of referring to himself as Uncle Jimmy, and as far as I can tell he's had the same hairstyle for the last 50 years (long and grey-blonde... there's no accounting for taste). According to the book Last Night a DJ Saved My Life Jimmy Savile was one of the pioneers of the nightclub as we know it today, being as he was the first person ever to implement two turntables and a microphone.
