Has anyone else noticed now the papers are already dropping the \”Sir\”, as if the honour has already been withdrawn?

Entirely trivial I know but I\’ve only just really noted it.

I noticed it was plain ‘Mr Savile’ on Panorama last night.

Does the honour still exist after death, or is it only a courtesy?
