savilate

Verb meaning:

(a) 'to lust after young girls or boys' or

(b) 'to lust after a juicy bit of scandal'.

Named after Sir Jimmy Savile, the much-loved BBC presenter and charity fundraiser whose questionable behaviour with young people sparked off a massive witch-hunt in the British media in 2012.

Watching Jimmy in old episodes of 'Top of the Pops' makes me savilate like one of Pavlov's dogs.
