To take such a role is a thankless task, but my God Coogan crushed it. He committed fully to it, which could not have been easy, but he has set the bar to a new high. A remarkable performance.

Total pish
This and David Tennants portrayal of Dennis Nielsen are two of the great acting performances of pure evil.
You’d think Coogan might bring some unintended humour to this role (given his performances in the likes of Alan Partridge, Tropic Thunder, Around the world in 80 days etc.) but no, he’s absolutely stone cold here. Absolutely amazing performance.
Savile wasn't particularly funny as a man, and was also not a comedian. I suspect he was much like Coogan's performance. The way he brandishes his charity work to fend off the BBC official seems to have been one of the methods with which he held off awkward questions and enquiries.
Let's have a look at what this idiot did... at the BBC
Yeah.Perfect casting.I feel Coogan ,like any great comic,has a grip on the tragic,which makes him empathic to portray a monster.
My mum, who was in her 70s, me and my sister saw him once with his entire entourage at a cafe near the river in Otley. Its the first time I`ve ever heard her swear but she said, " Look at him in his stupid shell suit, silly old c**t"
Ha! Well done that mum!
She had great intuition
I lived in Otley for a while, my mum and grandma are Leeds born and bred, they told me they saw Saville jogging once, couldn't believe my ears, nasty man is an understatement. Maybe your comment and mine are somewhat connected. Anyways, ugh.
@@warpspeedchic When he says 'that's not to say I don't think it was wrong for the BBC to ask you to establish the truth.' That's chilling. I'm so suspicious of any public figure who invests so very much of their time, and public image, to loud boisterous in your face charity work. Doing charity, and having foundations, simply comes with the territory for every wealthy celebrity. however those like Savile, Bill Cosby, Jerry Lewis whom make it an integral part of their 'image' always seem to be using it as a smokescreen. Any wealthy celebrity can do charity work, but seldom do many base a large portion of their career on it.
LOL!! Your mother is a *legend* tbh.
Coogan did an amazing job portraying Savile, the only giveaway is that coogan hasn’t got the creepy bog eyes that Savile had
Marty Feldman would of done it well. But he died 20 odd years ago so he was ruled out.
Second thought and , hear me out on this...Johnny rotten! That would of been last inspired

I think Rod Hull’s Emu would have been a dead ringer with a blonde wig, but his foam legs would have been a giveaway.
Jesus, just the way he WALKS! And everything else. What a creepy, uncanny, portrayal. I found this almost unwatchable. Coogan is just... well I can't imagine anyone else doing this. Incredible.
not a fan but wow he was good ,mannerisms the walk even that bloody awful cigar
It wasn't that good. Chill out.

Coogan gave one of the most powerful performances in cinema history. I doubt anyone else would have even taken on that role , but he did and it is the most bone chilling performance ever, this is the most horrific horror film ever.
This was a made-for-TV drama series. Why are you talking about cinema?
My Mum and Nanna met saville in the 90s. He was in the hairdressers getting his hair bleached in Leeds.
He saw them pointing through the window at him and immediately jumped out of the chair and went outside, still with his gown on, then kissed both of their hands giving it the ‘ladies, ladies’ spiel.
Fortunately my Mum was in her 30s and my Nanna about 60 so they were a bit old for him!
I daresay he abused plenty of grown women as well as young. Your mum and Grandma were probably fortunate to be somewhere so public.
Maybe he was too busy going to the morgue that day.
My mum and sister saw him once with his entire entourage at a cafe near the river in Otley. Its the first time I`ve ever heard her swear but she said, " Look at him, silly old c**t"
he had old victims too but yeah theyre lucky still
He abused elderly women, so I guess some were lucky because they were in public
It’s a show about a vile individual.
But I still give it to Steve Coogan as an actor.
Definitely. In terms of Saville, it's a reminder if how terrible he was. In terms of Coogan, it's a show of how versatile he is as an actor and the effort he must be able to put in to be able to emulate that individual.
@@Trent963 he was brilliant in this role.
Agreed 👍, Steve deserves awards for his skills in acting here imo
@@Trent963Coogan is underrated as an actor.
Probably Steve Coogans BEST performance yet as an actor, Absolutely nailed this role and deserves awards for this 👌👏👏👏 this subject needs to be spoken about. So that we can stop it from continuing to go on , like it Has.
Yes, however the BBC got off light in this version, despite Coogan's brilliance
@@leewpriceAgree in that they should have covered the Newsnight report cancellation. I thought the rest of the BBC awkward cover-ups were handled ok, at least depicted in some level of detail - along with the Stoke hospital etc.
Newsnight cancellation wasn't even mentioned... and I feel like it's quite an important part, considering it took about a year after his death for the truth to finally emerge to the wider public
He's also very good in the films, Philomena and Ideal home
@@Alice-ot5hcHe is very good as Martin Sixsmith in Philomena isn't he. His best moment in that was unfortunately a work of fiction. Where he confronts the nun over things being covered up.
Steve Coogan truly brings this vile human being to life. Amazing performance!
I don’t understand why people have a problem with this - just because Saville pulled the wool over an entire nation doesn’t mean you pretend it didn’t happen .
Think its coogans uncanny impression , its brilliant - used to him being funny ,this was hard to watch ,but you cant not watch :/
The cowards turn their heads away. It’s best to confront uncomfortable things head on.
@@josephhilditch8792 just because people don't like doesn't mean they're cowards lol...are they cowards just becuase they don't want to wtach four episodes of a child abuser abusing kids? is that Entertaining to you? i have no problem contronting uncomfortable things, but there's a different between that and watching a show that consists entirely of a man abusing kids. there's absolutely no point to this show, other than reminding people that he got away with all the disgusting things detailed in this show. has notrhing to do with being a coward lol, it has to do with not seeing the point of it's creation.
@@TheMellowGrenadeFirstly, the show doesn't 'entirely consist' of kids being abused. And the victims seem to think that there was a point to this programme being made, so your opinion is less important.
First time hearing anything about this..
Little fact - Coogan used to do Saville's voice on Spitting Image in the late 80's and early 90's.
"Say everything Twice, Say everything Twice!"
“Rattle rattle, jewellery jewellery”.
I never new that but now I know but I believe they had some inside jokes on saddle in the show
This thought did come to mind while watching it - which had the unfortunate effect that, 10% of the time, my internal monologue took over with "JINGLE, JANGLE! JEWELLERY, JEWELLERY, JEWELLERY!" - I'm not quite sure that was the effect they were going for...
‘How’s about that then’
Steve Coogan is superb as Savile, he was also brilliant as Tony Wilson in 24 Hour party people, Paul raymond in The Look of Love and Phillip Green in Greed, he is a national treasure
I agree, it was a really convincing performance.
He sounds just like him, it's uncanny
Yep he's great.
totally agree.
He really is amazing. Well said
You know you’re watching a great biopic when you forget that it’s an actor playing a character, and just start accepting the actor as the real person. Uncanny.
The lady who plays his mother is an excellent actress! To play his mum,with that air of disbeleif,mixed with a mums loyalty,is some task.She does a great job.
The lady was Bridget Jone’s mother. Yes a brilliant Actress.
That Nurse who dismissed Savile raping a patient as "Oh, it's just Jimmy being Jimmy" should have been locked up in cages. Unless she was bribed by Jimmy not to take any action.
So if she was bribed then she shouldn’t be locked up?
How does it make it better if she was bribed? Don’t quite follow that logic… 🤨🤔
It's amazing watching Coogan act out Saville's steam rollering and lies. He knew exactly how to force someone else in to appearing like the bad guy.
Coogan is a great actor, always was.
This new Alan Partridge is a bit dark

My grandmother died in 1999 at age 93. She absolutely hated jimmy saville. Said he was creepy and”Queer” looking.
I'm a massive Alan Partridge fan and honestly got annoyed at a few of the fan sites on social media who just can't see Steve as anyone but Alan.
He did an incredible job and thoroughly deserves any accolades that come his way.
He took such a risk with this but his performance was arguably his best ever
Agreed. This will be studied and pondered long after we’re gone.
A-HA!
I don’t know how Steve coogan could play such a disgusting creature but I have to say he’s a better actor then I thought he was the performance really creeps me out
great actor
Its not really much different from playing Hitler, Ted Bundy, Jeff Dahmer, etc. All despicable individuals in their own right, but actors have taken on the role of them.
Hitler especially. There has been a number of big name, accomplished actors who have taken on that role. Nobody really bats an eyelid at it either.
little bit of alan partidge comes through
@@paulrichards6894 More likely that Partridge always included some of the sleazy tack of the 70s & 80s DJ style
@@paulrichards6894 agree especially in the disc jockey scenes.
I could have done without having the theme tune to Jim’s fix it ear worm the following day after watching this.
I agree with that, I hated that I couldn't get it out my head for 2 days
coogan knocked it out of the park, again.
The way he turned during that interview made my blood go cold.
I've been thinking of watching this for a while as it's important to remember what a vile, despicable man this piece of dirt was. Steven Coogan seems to have done an incredible job depicting this animal.
Don’t disrespect animals like that. Savile was a demon, not an animal. Animals are on the most part loving creatures.
@@Adv18 well done. You used different words.
Steve Coogan did an excellent portrayal of Jimmy Saville. One of the worst things we can do - is hide and not be open regarding these issues. It is a mistake to think that these events can't happen again-, given the opportunity. What is almost worse, is that complaints were made, consistently, and either ignored, dismissed and JS enacted threats. Sexual abuse was an industrial scale. Lessons have to be learnt and enacted.
How anybody can say to Steve coogan why did you take this role is beyond me he’s an actor ,and a dam good one I think he played this role superb .
i notice nobody drummed up this much of a fuss when David tennant done his amazing portrayal of Dennis Nielsen. 2 amazing performances.
I must admit I was quite amazed at Steve Coogan's performance as Jimmy Savile down to a T in this and I also like his performance as Stan Laurel in 'Stan & Ollie'.
At least Jimmy savilles Farts were better than Trevor's
"The Reckoning" has to wipe the board at the next BAFTA's. not just for Coogan's acting, but also for they way the story was written. the attack scenes was done in a way that reminded me of the old Dracula movies. where you would see the look of evil intent on Dracula/Savile's and then a shot of the fear on the victims face before cutting to the next scene. leaving the viewer in no doubt at what had happened with out seeing the attack.
What a performance!!!. Frighteningly uncanny!!😮😮😮😮😢😢❤❤
I’ve watched tv dramas on the Yorkshire Ripper, Fred and Rose West, Dennis Nilsen, Ian Huntley and Brady and Hindly, but I didn’t remember any of those being controversial… Fred West raped and killed his own daughter, cut her up in the bath with a saw and buried her in bin bags underneath the patio… I don’t remember anyone saying…. Oh, they shouldn’t make that drama….
I do sometimes wonder about those that shout the loudest,if they have there own dirty little secrets.
That's because Fred West didn't work for the television studio who made the documentary on him who had covered up his abuse for years. But saying that, I believe this performance was outstanding by Coogan.
They weren’t seen as ‘national treasures’.
They did though
I mean what's next.... dramas on fucken Roy Whiting and Marcus Bridger??????????????????????????????????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Some ciggies, some pop and fun, fun, fun.”
In da Roller!?
I've always struggled to enjoy most of Coogan's work because he always appears a bit too self-aware in his impressions, he takes his art so seriously. Conversely, that's exactly what this role requires and my hat's off to him for this performance.
Have you watched Saxondale?
@@jeshkam yes, it was alright amd had some truly hilarious bits but I never got into it that much.
It's very brave for Steve Coogan to do this roll. One hand it could be career suicide on the other this could show the depths steve is willing to go to portray a monster.
@QueenBitch-bj9ds because he's a comedic actor and seen that way so if he came off too comedic he would've be called out. I'm just saying it's a hard role and he nailed it... jeez
The best bits were when the BBC humorously tried to cover up their own involvement in Savilles crimes 😆
I notice the Tory government haven't even released a drama about the fact that Maggie was Savile's best mate and key enabler, and her government went out of their way to give him access to vulnerable people. Let's not only point the finger at the BBC, let's point it wherever the blame lies.
Hilarious 😡
There was a lot of rumour, No one could come forward he would sue them.
Did you actually watch it? Nowhere did that happen
@@obiwankenobi687bbc made it lol
It’s a story that needs to be told. Coogan is fantastic. I’ve always admired him since the day today back in early 90s. But I can’t help thinking the bbc bigwigs not only knew but were probably part of it . There was too many entertainers at it at the time.
Steve coogan was very brave to do this role. Amazing performance
"Fun, fun, fun." What a chilling euphemism . Despite Coogan's brilliant depiction, and it is superb and uncanny (sometimes I had to rewatch the footage to see whether it was recreated or original) , the BBC 4324953 their role in this drama. The institution got off very lightly here.
An amazing portrayal of this creature, by Coogan. He has shown what a fine actor he is.
What we must realise is that NOT ALL BBC staff/workers/etc are to blame for this situation. But obviously the ones that were involved in the cover-up of this needs to be held accountable for. Also what about other tv channels, don't you think in the past that ITV may have had SOME ( not all) people behaving in the same way and getting away with it? Nobody should get away with this behaviour and we need to let people be aware of things happening, even some of the victims want people to see this, look out for behaviour signs of anyone they've met or will meet and not to be afraid to tell someone about it. Parents need to be aware so they can tell their kids that if they're in a situation with a person they feel uncomfortable with to say something so they can get help and feel safe .
It’s scary how Coogan expresses many Partridge like idiosyncrasies that mirror Saville.
I always thought there was something a bit off-puttingly Saville about Partridge, underneath the massive dose of Wogan...
I think the bbc did a decent job. They admitted the cover up, didn’t gloss over it. Coogan was very good indeed.
His performance is spot on but the real clips from the time are almost unwatchable
I was waiting for him to say to one of the kids “KISS MY FACE”
Woah. His voice is spot on.
I was dissatisfied with them not showing him dressed in his Mums clothes. Clearly had the Eodopus complex

A legend that will be remembered till the end times

Yeah, they made the show
Read the book In Plain Sight.
Apparently he had a strained relationship with his mother, in an interview he was asked if she'd ever told him she loved him and he said no, she never believed in "modern" things like outward shows of affection and that it was a "stupid question" to ask him. It's clear how this emotional abuse would have damaged him as a child, and we don't know what else she may have done, if he was abused by her or anyone else, eventually turning him into what he became. After she died, he stayed with her body lying in its coffin at her flat for five days, later describing it as "the best five days of his life." Given his history of abuse, of children in his power and even of dead bodies at Broadmoor morgue, I wonder if he did anything sexual to her corpse? It's possible, since necrophiliacs often get off on the sense of power they have over someone in the act of violating their corpse, I've heard. But at 0:50, I don't know how accurate that is, did he ever literally say his public persona was "an act" even to her? Also, at 4:54 consider how political correctness is aimed at making people rethink such toxic behaviour, and to prevent it from being normalized or laughed off as just harmless, because Savile and others clearly used "harmless" banter as cover for what is clearly predatory and exploitative behaviour, and the really shocking thing is it was just regarded as"normal" or laddish behaviour of ordinary men. Any time somebody complains about political correctness or feminism trying to make everything serious or spoil harmless fun, consider what some people like him can get away with when harassment and groping is considered normal, and in a climate that allows that idea to develop. Political correctness is essential for making sure things like that don't happen and guys like him can't get away with whatever they want.
We need to be able to disregard things like charity work and job/social standing when accusations like this are bought up too; often these things are used as covers for abusive behaviours.
Political correctness HELPS people like him lol
@@listentothenightfilms Uh, WTF? How on earth did it HELP him or anyone like him?
Not wanting to display affection is not abuse.
@@gmann6269 It is definitely emotional abuse. What kind of parents never shows affection for their child?
The past is a world we can never experience, and nostalgia isn’t what it used to be.
Ironic how the same program that protected Jimmy Savile for many years made a TV documentary about him describing his life and crimes despite doing nothing about it.
The people who run the BBC now are not the same people who ran it in the 70s/80s when Savile was in his prime. It's like blaming Rishi Sunak (who was only born in 1980) for Thatcher's close relationship with him.
It would be easy to use the BBC, Margaret Thatcher, Leeds General Infirmary or whoever as a scapegoat but the reality is that back then, society as a whole had a relaxed attitude towards pervy old men like him. The Sun had no qualms about getting 16-year-old girls to get their tits out on page 3 and even more recently, the likes of Charlotte Church were ogled by tabloids and was subjected to a public 'countdown to consent'. So next time you hear some old boomer romanticising the good old days, just remember it's those days which allowed people like Savile to flourish
The protection is exaggerated. Savile would sue anyone who threatened him, individuals, the tabloids, even the BBC. The tabloids would have had a field day if they could prove anything.
He also had charity work and royal friends to fall back on. The BBC would be shooting themselves in the foot.
This is such a good point.. how disturbing!!
@iescapedtheasylum2015 I wish this wasn't the case (that dirty old men got a free pass for so long) but unfortunately it was. On our school bus back in the 90s, everyone knew our driver was 'dating' a 14 year old. So many girls in our year at school got pregnant before we finished year 11 and the dads were always significantly older.
Does anyone know where I can watch this? I'm in Canada unsure if it's available here?

No mention of all those that covered this up at the BBC for years. It all came to “light” once Saville was dead, and couldn’t spill the beans on his fellow high profile nonces. That he was a mastermind who had everyone conned insulting

Superb acting
After a few years the Savile scandal stopped feeling like something that actually happened, as far as I was concerned, and instead gained an increasing aura of unreality, rather like an adult fairy tale told to terrify people. I’m afraid The Reckoning reinforced that feel of fantasy for me, as it included details that were admitted fiction, such as Savile dressing as a jester to molest a hospital patient, or his “confession” scene. There was nothing to implicate him in a TOTP dancer’s suicide either, as she’d left a diary in which she claimed to have slept with a different DJ, although the veracity of this diary has been questioned (apparently she’d also claimed to have had sex with Rock Hudson, who was gay!) Whatever the truth of the Savile scandal, this serial wasn’t it.
It's enough of a truth in that - he was an evil monster that abused children
@@maryhinge4815 But as he’s dead and can never be tried (although he was investigated in his lifetime and nothing came of it) we can never know for sure. I’m afraid the number of claims that have been disproved - like the allegations of ex-pupils to have been molested at Duncroft between 1965 and 1971 when he’d never set foot in the school before 1974, the claims of “Stephen” who actually turned out to be Carl Beech, the inability of some complainants to say approximately when the assaults occurred within a 10-year period or so, the claim of one man to have been molested by Savile when he was a nightclub manager at a time when Savile was a teenager working down the mines as a Bevin’s boy … oh so many … can’t but cast doubt on the whole of them!
I’m sure a lot of celebrities got closer to their fans than was appropriate and took advantage of their status, but I’m not convinced Savile was the worst of them … or that he could’ve molested children with adults close by, as their distress would’ve been obvious afterwards. But as I say, we can never know .. the only certain fact is that the lawyers made a lot of dough out of it all!
@@gregorypope602 many people know, and enough people believe, to ensure his legacy is that of a monster, rather than anything else he did
@@maryhinge4815 I’m afraid it’s down to what people believe, rather than what they know, if anything! I think that after a lapse of time - say, a generation or so - there’ll be a lot more questions asked about the truth of it all, although probably none of us will be here by then!
Tbh I haven't looked into it nor do I want too, so I just except common opinion, lots of folks are angry... I see no reason to an effort to contdict over a dead man I never much cared for , he was a nasty guy I know that much for sure , why bother to care
Ugh. Hearing the voice in the trailers I just heard Coogan but seeing this clip… it’s making my skin crawl

It seems there is a continuity error during the ice cream scene.
Savile produces the photograph for Jaconelli from a brown leather portfolio. The portfolio appears to disappear from the counter and both of Savile's hands are free to carry the ice creams.
He places the brown envelope on the counter.
@@Voldermortization So he leaves it with Pervy Jaconelli then?
that's because Saville was a magician...look it up.
he gave marriage advice to Princess Diana & Sarah Ferguson even though he was a life long bachelor with no (acknowledged at least children)
King Charles gave him diamond cufflinks & said that "People will never understand what you have done for this country"
even if you can't take the idea of proper magic seriously u can bet those who rule over us do. every ceremony & piece of regalia is steeped in the occult. John Dee, Alistair Crowley, Jimmy Saville - all were highly connected with royals & government.
this portrays his mother as always feeling there was something wrong she did not she was his biggest fan
I think he did really well acting as savile I’m glad that these people who have sadly been though this can start to finally heal and began to talk about the situation it’s just a shame that for so long they couldn’t talk about it
Partridge and Lynn look well different now.
Steve Coogan is criminally underrated. His Tony Wilson in 24 hour party people stole the show as well. Absolutely oozes farts eats sleeps and breathes talent.
His Mick Jagger in The Trip was only 30 seconds but will stay with me forever. Unique talent.
Jimmy Saville's sister lived in my mother's street in Wales when my Mam was a kid. My Mam and her friend were sat on the pavement when his limo turned up. Nothing happened but I still find it disturbing this monster was a few yards away in a quiet valleys village.
Savile's niece told Savile's sister of Jimmy's abuse of her. His sister said it was just Jimmy being Jimmy but she would 'deal with it'. The niece said nothing happened though and the niece just tried to avoid Jimmy from then on. She said Jimmy had bought his sister a cottage in Wales, a house in Egypt and a place in a BUPA care home. She implied that the sister had too much to lose by shopping or challenging Jimmy.
Havent seen it yet as its not available in my country but Coogan looks incredible in this despite the subject matter.
