New research from the NSPCC, commissioned for BBC\u2019s Panorama, uncovered at least 500 victims of Savile. The charity said the DJ may be the \u2018most prolific sex offender\u2019 it had ever come across.<\/span><\/p>\n It also emerged that six teenage girls had been abused in Savile\u2019s dressing room in the 1970s even though the BBC had been warned to make sure that youngsters were properly supervised.<\/span><\/p>\n The attacks took place after the BBC Controller of Television Administration wrote a memo saying he \u2018believed the situation is as tightly controlled as can reasonably be achieved.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n The investigation also uncovered more offending at Broadmoor.Civil servants were so star-struck by the presenter they referred to him as \u2018Dr Savile,\u2019 papers have revealed.<\/span> Peter Watt, the NSPCC’s director of child protection, said: \u201cThere\u2019s no doubt that Savile is one of the most, if not the most, prolific sex offender that we at the NSPCC have ever come across.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWhat you have is somebody who, at his most prolific, lost no opportunity to identify vulnerable victims and abuse them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n It emerged that the BBC had launched an inquiry into allegations of inappropriate behavior at the corporation in the 1970s, headed by Sir Brian Neill.<\/span><\/p>\n His report suggested there should be clear guidance about supervising young audiences coming to see Top of the Pops.<\/span><\/p>\n However a memo written in August 1972 by the BBC\u2019s Controller of Television Administration, showed that the advice was not acted on.<\/span><\/p>\n The investigation found evidence that six young people were abused by Savile in BBC dressing rooms after Sir Brian Neill\u2019s advice.<\/span><\/p>\n Former BBC receptionist Marion Horton-Smith, who worked at Lime Grove studios during the 1970s, said Savile assaulted her in his caravan after inviting her there to record a request for his show.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cHe said, \u2018does it deserve a kiss then?\u2019 I went to give him a kiss on the cheek and suddenly I was pushed back on the bed and he was on top of me and from somewhere, he put a light out,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cHe was very strong. I mean, he pinned me down, but he was slobbering up and down my neck.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n She said she blamed herself and did not report what had happened.<\/span><\/p>\n Another woman who was first abused by Savile in Broadmoor and then groomed by him at the BBC, said she went unchaperoned to his Top of the Pops dressing room, where she said Savile molested her many times until 1975.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t remember there being any supervision at all,\u201d said the woman, who wanted to remain anonymous.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cOnly Jimmy himself. He would just say, when the show\u2019s over just wait over there by that door there on the set and I\u2019ll come and get you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
\n The latest figures show that the most common age group for Savile\u2019s victims was 13 to 15 \u2013 but that his youngest victim was just two years old.<\/span><\/p>\n
