I wonder if the makers of the documentary somehow got wind of the fact that he was dying and decided to drop the documentary on the public when they did for maximum publicity.

Was that the one when the smug scriptwriters got one of your false accusers to say, quote 'they were just a normal teenager when I met him, doing normal teenage stuff like hedgehopping'
At the time I knew nothing of your case but what had been reported at the time, but the inexplicable use of the word 'hedgehopping' in that context causes me to question it all immediately!
He's apparently joint CEO of Optomen Television, which, according to this ITV report and the Optomen website, produced the Rolf Harris documentary.

I believe he did some groping and tried to see how far he could go. I always found him to be a bore. People I know who have met him through hospitality always said he is 'arrogant and moody' and one person used the noun dickhead.

It's certainly not because Rolf Harris is famous or because I thought he was a dab hand with a paintbrush or seemed a nice guy on TV that I think he was convicted of crimes he didn't commit. I suggest you visit the Rolf Harris Is Innocent site and read William Merritt's book, Rolf Harris: The defence team's special investigator reveals the truth behind the trials, which is only 10 pounds or free on Kindle. And in case you think Rolf Harris paid him to write the book, William Merritt points out in this interview that this was not the case and that Rolf Harris didn't learn about the book until it was finished.
