Phoenix Nights and Car Share star Kay has been sharing anecdotes from his new book, Big Adventures on the Small Screen

Comedian Peter Kay has shared details of a handful of encounters he had with Jimmy Savile, describing the shamed DJ and radio personality as 'very eccentric' and recalling when things 'kicked off' at the BBC HQ. , reports the MirrorOnline.

Kay also had a second encounter of sorts with Savile many years later when he was invited to BBC Media City in Salford for an event that took place the day after a Savile documentary aired on ITV exposing his sick behaviour. He was joined by BBC execs, musicians and actors and the new BBC DG , although he left quickly to return to London as the Savile news meant things were kicking off at the corporation’s HQ.

After Savile died, hundreds of allegations of sexual abuse and recollections from witnesses surfaced. The allegations included children as young as two and patients of Stoke Mandeville Hospital where Savile, who raised millions for charity, allowing him to avoid the accusations, volunteered as a porter.
