Childhood hero's

Jimmy Saville , Stuart Hall , Jimmy Tarbuck , Dave Lee Travis .... the list goes on . Every week a celebratory from my childhood has allegations of abuse levelled against them from the 70's mostly by an anonymous person . Some have been ( I was gonna use the word proved , but cant ) found highly likely to be true unfortunately.... Some allegations will be rubbish I'm sure . I don't want to believe any of my childhood entertainers are guilty because  I only have happy memories of their T.V shows . Maybe I would rather stick my head in the sand than face the depressing truth . I find myself asking the disturbing question when does something become so widespread it suddenly looses its ability to be considered unusual  . I choose my words carefully there ...
