bicycle races. Right, So his first proper media job was calling races for the Daily Express, because that was the newspaper that was funding the first tour of Britain race Back in the day, newspapers used to have money and they would like fund or support stuff like big races in the like for a while. Since newspapers worked that way, that was.

as a bona fide celebrity. He becomes the face and voice of the Daily Express and that starts to earn him attention from the BBC and from Radio One, which is the BBC's radio thing of a jigger right now. Back then, the British media environment was much more restrictive than it is today, and the BBC has essentially a monopoly on legal radio play. Right You're not allowed to just have another radio station, right, you can get in

trouble for that. Now. As a result, the BBC is like they're very much see themselves as cultural gatekeepers of like what should be acceptable and popular in Britain. And this pisses off every because people who run the BBC are old, stuffy, rich assholes and they have terrible taste in music. And this is the moment in which pop

music is starting to explode. You know, you have this period of time like the mid to late fifties, early sixties where we've talked We talked about this on our episodes about Phil Spector with my buddy Will Greasy Will. This is the first time in which teenagers are like a demographic that you're marketing towards and selling towards, and that music is angled heavily towards the teen set because previously, you go back fifty years, teenagers are all working in

the minds or something. They're not dancing at party clubs or whatever. They're not they're certainly not like a chunk of the of the populace that you are like trying to sell stuff to.

it exists. So the very idea again of youth culture is new and scary to a lot of influential people in British media because these are members of the upper class and they're kind of worried in part because they're all everyone who's got money in the Western world is terrified of the communists, right, and so there's this fearful understanding that these young people have different values, maybe it'll lead them towards like socialism and all these other scary things.

And there's also just this aspect of this has never been a thing that existed before teenagers and they're being a whole media industry geared towards teenagers. Is it good for? Is it making them bad? Is it going to damage them? You know, there's a lot of concern about that sort of thing, and unfortunately the concern is focused on like the kind of music as opposed to maybe the people making the music and playing on the radio, which is who they should have been scared of harming the youth

of Britain. The music itself isn't really doing any damage. But I bring all this up to point out that it is very difficult and is a very strange and noteworthy historical fact that within this kind of sclerotic and very much like not welcome, not open to newcomers, not open to like different ideas, this list like media culture, that a guy like Jimmy Savile becomes prominent because Jimmy talks like a working class man from Leeds and he

dresses well like this. Sophie'll show you one photo of the guy where he he's got like he's wearing like a black velvet mask around his face, he's got his hair slightly curled, his long white hair, and he's got like a lace fucking gauntlet around his hand. It looks like it's hard to tell what is going on with his sleeve there. Yeah, he looks like.

dressing this way, is it weirdly enough? Standing out and looking like a maniac divert suspicion and interest away from his actual behavior.

definition is dependent upon the age that they are. Again, as I've noted, but that's exclusively who he hangs out with. So he does understand them, right, And at the time, other people in the media are just like, well, he's the only one these kids seem to really like get you know, he understands the kids, and we know there's a lot of money there, so we better keep paying Jimmy Savile because he's the only adult we know who can communicate with the teenagers.

So a big part of his early success and famous his ability to convince people in the media who come from money and who are part of this like, you know, this rarefied air of people who got to do that job back then, that I can make these kids less scary and uncontrollable to you. I know how they tick and I can control them. Right, that's why they're hiring him, right,

So that's great. Basically, he he provides these media elites in Britain at the time with a degree of control and predictability over a bunch of teenagers who scared the living shit out of them. Now, good stuff. Nothing like this has ever happened since his main job was still djaying, and by this point he's helping to manage the Mecca

dance hall. He is like the manager of the whole dance hall, and he's often doing shows and he hits upon the brilliant idea in nineteen fifty five of playing top pop hits for his audience while they waited for the house band to rest between sets. So normally you just have the band stop and I either maybe you have a secondary band do something or whatever. But Jimmy comes in and he starts DJing and just putting on

playing the hits for these kids. And he's really good at knowing what they want to hear, and he's good at you know, he's talking in between putting on these songs, he's getting the crowd amped up. You guys know what a DJ does, right, but very few people are doing that at this point. He's one of the first generation. He's not. He'll often claim to have been the first DJ. I don't think that's really true. But he's part of

the first generation of guys doing this right. And this proves to be extremely popular and it earns him a promotion. So he's a job managing a different, much larger dance hall in London. So he's now moved from Leeds to London and he's running this big dance hall and he's got access to this full size ballroom and the power and funding to try something more ambitious than that crude

gramophone wired to a speaker that he'd used previously. According to the book in Plane Sight, he was connected to the company Westrex, who made turntables, and quote he said, he walked into the pala which is the dance hall he's running to find an electrician fitting a record deck in the box from which the lighting was operated. He told the man he wanted two turntables and for them to be installed on the stage, one next to the other. It was. He claimed the first twin turntable system in history.

Now it wasn't an article I found on CNN notes commentators have pointed out they were available decades earlier, But he was one of the very first guys to do this. Jimmy is legitimately quite novel. I'm sure he saw someone else do it, maybe, but there aren't a lot of people who did that before. Or Jimmy Savill who had a twin turnsable system running right, probably a black guy.

his shows. He had a zero tolerance policy, and he talks about this a lot in interviews and stuff because he was he really liked telling stories about having these big, dangerous men beat the shit out of people at his command. Now, the fact that Jimmy was always surrounded by dangerous men, was, Davies suggests, probably due in part to the fact that at night he would pick out one or more of the girls at his shows to invite backstage, and he

was scared of their parents. Right, So Davy suggests he's kind of lying about the fact that he needed these guys to keep ordering his shows. He wanted a bunch of scary, big guys around him because he's fucking a bunch of teenagers and their parents get angry. Right, And at this point this is when this stopped by the I mean it had happened at some point previously, but by this point he's like twenty eight years old. It

is no longer. Even within the standards of the time, people think it's a bit weird that he's pretty much exclusively going after like sixteen year old girls, sometimes young.

young her sister, which is not legal now. She turned him down, but the next year, in nineteen fifty six, Kathy got to perform on stage at the Palais and was invited to tour with the band leader Bert Ambrose, and she says that she hit on Bert, but he turned her down because he was forty years older than her.

And I don't know if this is Burt actually trying to be a good guy or just being creepy, but the way he frames the way he explains turning her down is that like, you need to get some experience.

This is legal, right, But that's one of the first stories we have of she's very uncomfortable. She's particularly uncomfortable that he's hitting on her fifteen year old sister. But she does eventually sleep with him because basically she thinks it'll get her in with someone in the industry she really like wants to have a relationship with and work with.

And this should get to kind of how murky a lot of it is at this period of time, right, this is this is not at all something we can talk about directly using all of our modern terms.

in time. This early in the story, people know it's weird, and that Jimmy likes some young and that that is weird, even within a time period in which it's not at nearly as abnormal for older men to have sex with much younger women. Right, even in that period of time, Jimmy is weird and gets a reputation for liking them young women and girls, right because he's doing both, you know, professionally. During this period, Savill seems to go from strength to strength.

He starts mixing popular songs together when he's on stage, in a manner much more familiar to modern day listening as DJing. But again, he's not interested in making music or the artistry of any of this. The appeal to him here is always control. Hence, once he turned his second dance hall into a hit, he started stopping shows regularly to announce Smooch Time, in which he gave the teenage participants permission to grind and make out with each other.

This was totally novel, As one regular this is someone who was attending these shows as a teenager at the time, later told biographer Dan Davies he was giving teenagers the chance to get together. Teenagers had the chance to hug each other and fall in love. It was a romantic, fantastic time. And I can see how for the teenagers

at the time this would be really nice. Right, You've got a culture that's much more repressed, and there's you're suddenly getting this permission in a public space that like it's okay to make out with other teens. Right. It's like you're with your boyfriend, you're out at the club and he's like, okay, it's not you can all make out now, right. It's very popular, I guess, is what i'd say, like a lot of people. And again he's not this is he's the one on stage. He's not

making out with anyone at this point in time. He will after the shows. But what he's doing here, as much as a lot of these kids like it, is he's normalizing the fact that it's like it's not weird to have sexual and like romantic physical contact at what is his place of work. Right, And even though he's on stage when he's announcing smooch time, this is going to help to normalize what is going to become predation from a nearly thirty year old man to a bunch

of largely fifty to seventeen year old girls. That is part of what's happening here, but nobody it's not noticed as that because all the teens are just happy that someone's saying it's not bad for you to make out with your boyfriend a girlfriend, right, Yeah, like you could get how that camouflage is it? Right?

But if someone is a pop musician who is famous and beloved, he knows them, and you've heard him talk to them on air, so you know he knows them, and this gives him a huge amount of power over the teenage girls his audience. Now to the adults who are running the business, and who own these venues. This helps to reinforce Jimmy's status as a teen whisperer, right, although this is largely based on a misconception they have about his fame because they see like, oh wow, the

teenagers love Jimmy. What's really happening is the teenagers know Jimmy has access to the musicians they love, and so they follow him because he provides access to these pop stars. Right, and he increasingly grows skilled when he's talking with these teenage girls who are lining up outside of his office after the show, at making himself into a gateway between these kids who are obsessed with their favorite musicians and those musicians. That is what provides him with the bulk

of his victims. He is the door. If you make Jimmy happy, Jimmy can introduce you to the fucking Beatles.

even in the case when they're legally of age. He is making them have sex with him to get access to famous musicians. And that's bad. Like it may not have been a prime at the time, but it's bad.

He lives in Squalor. His apartments are always disgusting and like the cheapest place he can possibly get his house in this period of time is this gross, mold covered flat nicknamed the Black Pad because he painted the walls and everything else black to disguise the grime so that like it wasn't as obvious how gross it was. Rent was a pound fifty per week. He's just cheap, okay, and he doesn't I don't think he spends a lot of time in his apartment too, so he doesn't see

the reason to spend much money on it. At this point. He spends a lot of money in his cars, and usually if he's not having sex in his office, he's having sex in his car. Now he does bring people back to his pad to party too, and he's lit the space with red light bulbs to further hide how disgusting it is. But it was it's gross.

I can get you backstage at this show. You can beat your heroes and get you to come in when you know we're gonna have Elvis in or whatever the studio and you can meet him, you know, if you just do something for me right now. Jimmy is as good as his word usually when he makes these promises for a very good reason, right, this isn't He's not fulfilling the promises he makes these girls, who he then molests because he cares about being as good as his word.

He is also providing pop stars with groupies who are quote ready to go. That's the term he uses, and that's part of his job. He is a fixer for these musicians who are traveling all over the world. They're coming past, you know, they're doing part of their tour in London, so they're going on the radio to talk to Jimmy. He's talking to them about, you know, the show they're doing, and it's expected. Hey, you know, you guys are going to be in town for just like

two nights. Jimmy can hook you up with some girls who are ready to go, you know, like that's that's what he's doing. We don't know, specif scifically who he did that for, but he does it a lot and it's part of the appeal. It's part of why you go to Savil's parties. Is if you're famous, he'll get you. He'll gee up with some groupies. Right, it's very normal. At the time, it's very bad.

his car. He'd always pull up with the girls in his car going home. He'd always have the girls in his car. Right. So, again, as normalized as aspects of this were, it's weird. Jimmy is a weirdo for the time, and people are using the term weirdo to refer to the fact that he's a pedophile.

a homosexual person. Right, And he's fine with this because if people think he's queer or just off in general, then the fact that he's always surrounded by teenage girls is just another mark of his eccentricity. Right. Yeah, And in fact, part of his strategy is he deliberately doesn't have sex with or group most of the young girls that he's hanging out with, the majority of the girls that he's surrounded by at any given time, he is

not molesting because that provides further cover. Right, most of the girls who were out there will say nothing happened, you know, And that makes him seem safer and it makes it seem less worth paying attention to. Dan Davies relates the story of Penny Anne Rolls, who met Savill when she was a teenage girl working at a coffee shop that was also a concert venue which Jimmy part owned. She recalled quote, one Sunday night, he used to take a few of us to a restaurant, an Indian place

in the Curry center of Manchester. We used to go there for curry and he would park his Rolls Royce up. Afterwards, he would take us home with the roof down on his car and we'd all be singing our heads off. She remembers there were three or four girls that Savill took out regularly, but insists he never tried it on with her. I never saw him in a relationship with anyone, she maintains. Between you and I, I don't know whether he was gay. And tactics like this were very much

in line with Jimmy's repeatedly elucidated approach to life. He talked about this as a strategy. I'm going to quote from one specific interview he does near the end of his life, but he repeats this sentiment in numerous places over half a century. You see, I never ever thought that I was clever. Tricky. Yes, I'm a very tricky fella. But tricky is much better than being clever. If you are clever, you can slip up because you're clever. But if you're tricky, you don't slip up. You never slip up.

And while he's rising to fame during this time when he's he's you know, m seeing events and running all these dance halls and stuff and this popular DJ and on the radio, he's also a prominent wrestler. And in fact, he tried to use his he gets into wrestling, and he tries to use his fame, the fact that he's kind of famous as a broadcaster to jump start his wrestling career, and the fact that he is so well

known does make him popular to promoters. Like promoters love having Jimmy savalon because people will show up to watch him wrestle. But other wrestlers hate it because he's not really a wrestler, right, and he's kind of like he's kind of like stealing his way to the top.

back another time. You might get lucky. Ew bro.

but I don't know how far back that goes. Okay, I should also know the kind of wrestling Saville did was a mix of like the pure entertainment pro wrestling that we Americans know and love today in actual competitive grappling. So these are real fights, right, like where there's like a winner and a loser that's not decided ahead of time. And I will talk about one of those fights much later.

At the end of these episodes. You're gonna need it as a palette cleanser, but that's getting We'll do that later because again, it's going to be necessary However, it's important you know that the fact that he's bad at wrestling doesn't mean that his time as a wrestler was a failure for Savil. In fact, it's one more thing that makes him seem terrifying and impossible to resist to his victims. The fact that he's a pro wrestler helps helps ensure that when he's molesting someone, they don't fight

back because he's scary. He's in really good shape, and he's huge. He is a big man. He's physically dangerous. This is not a This is a guy who is in fights. This is a guy who knows how to hurt people, and who knows how to uses body to hurt people. He even told one wrestling magazine, if I arrive at the gates of Heaven and Saint Peter says, you've been a very tricky man. You can't come in here.

I'll break his thumbs because I'm qualified to do that, because I've earned a living being a wrestler, and I've not had a problem yet with anyone who's thumbs I've broken. No one could have known, impossible to know this guy was preying on kids. There were no signs.

is TV at this point in time. It's a little because a lot of media, it's kind of hard to find from nineteen sixty four, so I think this is a TV program at the time. It's called Top of the Pops and it's a video showcase of the hit bands of the era that becomes this massive hit. And

Jimmy's not the only host. They rotate DJs, so like every episode you'll have somebody different, right, but Jimmy is like the first one to host the show, and he's like one of the most regular people that they bring back to host Top of the Pops during this period of time and throughout the sixties and I think into the seventies, he's repeatedly voted Britain's favorite DJ, like he's the top DJ in the country by pretty much any

person's like standards. And so he also gets the job regularly when these huge bands that are honestly probably bigger in a lot of ways than any popular musician is today. When you talk about the Beatles or the Stones at their height, he's the guy on stage introducing them whenever they play in England, right, and he continues he'll dress

in bizarre costumes. I saw one video where he's like opening for the Stones and he's dressed as like a stereotype of a Japanese woman, wearing like a kimono and like waving fans to cool himself down. As he approaches the microphone, he's got his catchphrases like now then, now then and now how about that then? Because catchphrases were easier to have back then, more than anything, Jimmy had access. This is a guy who talks to the Beatles repeatedly.

He's in like a top of the Pops they do like a TV skit with the Beatles, where Jimmy, because he's so huge and tall, is like he's like the abominable Snowman, and they're all out like hiking, and he's like one by one like eating the Beatles basically. And I don't think they're actually friends. I don't think they know, Like they're certainly not hanging out socially the rest of their lives. But he knows them. And if you're a teenage girl, all you see is that, like, wow, he

knows the fucking Beatles. You know. On stage, when Jimmy wasn't surrounded by pop stars, he was often quite literally buried in girls, which further helped to normalize and disguise his behavior. Here's one example from an episode of Top of the Pops in the nineteen seventies, that Sophie's gonna play for you here, I thought.

on video. This is so normalized, This is not hidden, This is not like I have to really emphasize there was no reason not to know what Jimmy was doing here.

While I was looking for that clip, I accidentally came across another clip from a nineteen sixty five episode of Top of the Pops, and Jimmy's only on for the first second, but once I heard the words to the song he's introducing, I had to include this too, just because it's just a very I had a funny bit of irony Sophie's to play that clip to you now from the sixty five episode. The song is called little Children, Jay,

little Children, You dare not tell on me? You tell what you Why was that a song I Know, just to kind of talk make the point about how like some of this is that things were fucked up at the time. Why is that a song? Yeah, just Jimmy sat the Pedophile introducing a song about telling kids not to tell on adults. Great. So by this point, by the time, and again we're in kind of like the

mid sixties. In this era, Jimmy's moved on from the Mecca he's hosting, he's running things at a new thirty three hundred person dance hall called the Top Ten Club, which promised music by famous pop stars and top international DJ Jimmy Saville. On ads for the club, Jimmy was pictured with a chimpanzee for some reason, and the text it's a gas, it's a ball, It's like crazy man.

The club only allowed people sixteen and up, which was again the age of consent, but numerous people who attended in those days have made it clear that lying about your age was so easy as to be essentially encouraged. No one's checking or cares if you're not actually sixteen, right, And in fact, there's some evidence that, you know, the bouncers, the people like at the gate are specifically trying to bring in younger girls for reasons I probably don't need

to elaborate on here. Now, the Top ten Club becomes Jimmy's primary like hunting area, and he, in order to maintain sort of this h like his kind of specialness, he forbade none of the other DJs were allowed to play Top twenty hits, right because Jimmy knows his popularity is based entirely on his perceived closest to fame, and this further helps to make him seem special and make

it seem like he's got access. Jimmy Donnelly, who we heard from earlier, recalled that Savill always left with girls from their mid to late teens and that it was well known Jimmy Savill liked him young. Now the Top ten Club is going to become probably his most reliable hunting ground in this period of life. That's the term Davies uses for it through the mid to late sixties, and both he and the BBC are recruiting girls from

the Top ten Club right. Saville is recruiting them because he wants to molest them, and the BBC is recruiting them for the studio audience of their hit new TV show Top of the Pops because they have just teenagers come into dance, right, Like these girls are bringing brought into like dance on stage to be in the background. It's like in that clip I've shown you, you just have them as set dressings, right. And so you've got like Cecil Korr, who's the assistant producer for the show

and a twenty nine year old man. He'll go talent spotting out at club nights at the Top ten club and he'll hand out tickets to girls. And he had said later, I was looking for girls aged thirteen to seventeen, right, that's who he's handing out tickets to be on TV too, said one Top of the Pops director. If they were dancers or were attractive, obviously they got on. So again, both the BBC and Savile are preying on underaged girls.

The BBC because they the BBC recognizes that they have sex appeal quote unquote to the audience, to the musicians, to the DJs, and they want there to be girls younger than sixteen.

stars they idolized. Savell was constantly on the air on TV or in concerts introducing the Beatles, Manfred Mann and of course the Rolling Stones, and while the kids perceived him as having a close relationship to all these guys, the reality was often uglier. Let's take the Stones as an example. Savill was an early advocate of the band, even when the record company Deco wasn't sure they had what it took to outshine the Beatles. Savill had seen

the way audiences went nuts for the group. He described it as rioting, and he supported them in his he gets a newspaper column, so he's writing newspaper articles about the pop industry at this dime and in his discussions with industry insiders. This does not mean that he was friendly with or liked by the band members. In nineteen sixty four, after their first number one record, the Stones were booked to play at the Top ten club. The crowd that night was, for lack of a better word, insane.

Fights broke out constantly and the police even had to show up. And the Stones, to an extent, part of like what they're doing in this time is playing up how crazy their concerts get. This is what's going to kind of culminate and the like there's a like somebody gets killed at one of their concerts by a Hell's Angels, like back in the US, not crazy long after this period of time, because that's part of what makes the Stones famous, is how nuts their shows go, how crazy

their fans go for them. But things get so bad this night that the Stones refused to play when their time came up, and part because like they've lost their instruments, like the instruments they were supposed to have didn't show up, and they didn't want to play with like the venues, like backup set of instruments. They didn't think they were good enough. And that's just going to make the fans even crazier, which makes them less want to go on stage.

So Jimmy, who's out DJing to try and calm the crowd down, gets called up by an aid and he goes backstage to see what's wrong, and he's told that, like you know, the band isn't going to play. These instruments aren't good enough, Like they're just going to leave. And I'm gonna quote now from the book In Plain Sight. Saville's response was characteristically blunt. He pointed to where three of his largest minders were standing and growled, you've got the time it takes this stage to revolve to make

your mind up. If you're not going to play, you're going to be unconscious because my minders are going to chin all of you. I'll accept drummer Charlie Watts, that is Saville claimed that Watts looked him up and down before speaking. You would, wouldn't you, he said? No, Danger replied Saville, and I'll throw you to the fucking audience. I guarantee you that. And the Rolling Stones agreed. They take their preferred audience instruments and they play on there

and they go play their show. Right, this is a he does this with other people. This is just one example of like the way he is. He is very comfortable threatening violence even on these big pop stars. Right, that's going to be fair. That's that's wild, Like, that's crazy.

the country. In nineteen sixty seven, the town of Otley hosted their annual civic Ball and named it the Pop Civic Ball to attract youngsters. Of course, Jimmy Savill was asked to attend as chief guest, and he responded with a list of conditions for his appearance. The first was that his normal two hundred pound fee had to go to a local charity. Right, So that's what you start.

Your first demand is, don't pay me, send the money to a local charity, right, because that deflex suspicion, particularly it to flex suspicion. Before his second and third condition, I wish to sleep the night on the Chevin, which is like a park or something nearby, in a tent which you will organize plus sleeping bag and a large torch. And this is the answer that the venue gives. I will personally organize a tent plus sleeping bags in a large torch for you to sleep overnight and moreover, will

hold you to it. And his third demand is a guard of honor of six young ladies in another tent, of course, to keep me safe. And the venue answers, I'll organize a guard of honor of six young ladies, but I won't be held to their comple alliance or your safety. Get it. The town, you know, whatever representative of the town is like, I'll make sure there's the six young ladies for you, but I won't make sure you don't bless him. Haa.

his good charitable work at these hospitals. Right, And so you see, you Sandwich, I want teenage girls and privacy so that I can molest them in between money to charity, volunteer at a local hospital.

like wake him up in the morning. Right. And I'll always open with a charitable donation and then in the middle is the girls, and then at the end is some other like good cause, volunteering at a hospital or something. All of these demands, particularly for the honor guard, were publicized at the time. Local press wrote about this. Jimmy

wrote about this in his autobiography. In his autobiography, which is published after he has awarded the o or Order of the British Empire, which is a step below knighthood. In his autobiography, he describes the teenage girls that this town provided with him him with as looking good enough to eat. Now, I don't know precisely what this is not a hidden.

them in that clearing. It was at this point, in the early hours of the morning, that Jimmy Saville, who had been playing them with vodka all night but not drinking himself, came in and tried it on with each of the girls. Although the woman refused to elaborate on what had happened on the grounds that she didn't think it fair on the others in the tent that night. She did describe Jimmy Saville as a disgusting old man

and a pervert. Her version of events was that they were saved when youths from the rugby club shot out the paraffin lamps with air rifles. They had followed us up there, she said. She described the girls huddling in the tent while a fight broke out between Savel and the youths. Saville was violent, really nasty. Once he turned, she added, thank god the salute to those teenagers shooting in tent with an air rifle. Thank God for you.

sixty seven. The investigation was never published, though, because the editor of the magazine, Sam Campbell, had hired Jimmy Saville as a columnist because he's going to draw on young readers, and so basically he's like, we're not going to publish an investigation over the whether or not this guy molesting girls.

He's one of our most popular columnists, you know. In January of nineteen seventy two, after receiving the Obe People, this magazine published a four part series with Jimmy titled Me and My three Thousand Birds At Last, Jimmy Savill's own story, give you a guess as to what that's about.

not mainly, cops. Those are his best friends.

cricket at all, not getting bribed by Jimmy. Yeah, I gave him that nickname.

with this by her colleagues. Quote because it was well known that where I to go, I would probably take half the station with me. Now does that mean that if Saval were charged, half the station would quit because they were his friends, or does that mean that if Savile were charged, he would tell stories about half the station because he was providing half the Manchester Police force with teenaged girls to molest. What do you think is more likely?

not breaking everybody's spirit. But you should know this is happening more than the one time we're talking about.

I'll be hanging out with him, So why don't you send me a picture of you that I can give to the King. Right, So she does, and I'm going to quote from Endplaine Sight as to what happened next. According to the woman, who did not want to reveal her identity, on returning from the States, Savile phoned her house and told her he had a present for her from Elvis. She was understandably thrilled and recalled walking to the London hotel where Savill was staying. She said he
