Peter Kay has spoken out about working with Jimmy Saville, descrbing the disgraced presenter as a “dirty old perv”.Speaking to The Mirror ahead of the release of his new book, Big Adventures on the Small Screen, Kay recalled some of the highs and lows of his career, including working with Savile.The comedian said he was working on the last ever episode of Peter Kay’s World Of Entertainment for the BBC series The Sunday Show, and wanted to “push the boat out” by getting Savile involved. The Jim’ll Fix It presenter agreed on the grounds he would receive £500 in cash and a box of cigars worth £1000, which Kay agreed to.However, Kay said he found Savile to be “very eccentric”, claiming he “talked utter nonsense, spouting weird quotes, crap jokes, limericks”.Kay continued: “The only hint I got of Jimmy being immoral in any way was when he met our executive producer, Bridget Boseley.“I remember she offered him her hand, which Jimmy took, then he flipped it round to kiss the back of it, but before his lips touched her skin I saw a quick flick of his tongue licking the back of her hand.
