Hindsight reigns in the overproduced "Faking It: Jimmy Savile", in which a parade of experts (on body language, linguistics, criminal profiling, etc.) sit at flashy computer setups and sagely explain how everything notorious entertainer and pedophile Jimmy Savile said or did was an obvious Freudian slip that you'd almost have to be blind to miss. Of course, they have a point to a degree (Savile did let details about his true self slip out during interviews and appearances and lots of people DID know), but there are times when their analysis lurches into ridiculous territory (hello, headphone lady!) and, frankly, the actual story of what Savile did is more compelling than their theater. Watch "Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story" instead.
