James Stuart Hall Jr.
(born 25 December 1929) is an English former radio and television presenter.
He presented regional news programmes for the BBC in North West England in the 1960s and 1970s, while becoming known nationally for presenting It's a Knockout and Jeux Sans Frontières.
His later career mainly involved football reporting on BBC radio. In December 2012 and January 2013, Hall was charged with multiple sexual offences committed over a 20-year period.
He initially denied any wrongdoing but pleaded guilty in April 2013 to having indecently assaulted 13 girls, aged between 9 and 17 years old, between 1967 and 1986.
The BBC terminated his contract and he was sentenced at Preston Crown Court to 15 months in prison.
Following sentencing, the Attorney General's office received complaints that the sentence was unduly lenient; it was referred to the Court of Appeal for review and his sentence was increased to 30 months.
In May 2014 he was found guilty on two further charges of indecent assault against a 13-year-old girl, and was sentenced to an additional 30 months in prison.
He was released on licence in December 2015 after serving half his sentence.
