EXPOSING The BBC Pedophile Ring_ Decades of Abuse, Cover-Ups & Murder · The conspiracy

0:00
Speaker 1: The British Broadcasting Company, also known as BBC News, is
0:04
Speaker 1: a British public broadcasting network based in London, England that
0:07
Speaker 1: was founded in nineteen twenty two under a Royal charter.
0:10
Speaker 1: It's the oldest and largest local and global broadcaster, currently
0:14
Speaker 1: employing around twenty one thousand staff members, and it offers
0:18
Speaker 1: a variety of content on television, radio and the internet.
0:21
Speaker 1: According to their website, they're an impartial, independent broadcaster that
0:25
Speaker 1: creates distinctive, world class programs and content which inform, educate
0:30
Speaker 1: and entertain millions of people in the UK and around
0:33
Speaker 1: the world. The BBC broadcasts everything from news and weather,
0:36
Speaker 1: to sports and culture and more. Sadly, though, the BBC
0:40
Speaker 1: has held a mound of secrets, lies, crimes and cover
0:44
Speaker 1: ups over the last several decades that were never publicly
0:47
Speaker 1: talked about until the death of one infamous member of
0:50
Speaker 1: their own party, Jimmy Savill with long gray hair, John
0:54
Speaker 1: Lennon style glasses and a cigar always hanging out of
0:57
Speaker 1: his crooked mouth. Jimmy Saville was an English media personality
1:00
Speaker 1: and DJ who was well known to the public for
1:03
Speaker 1: his quirky image and for his work as a host
1:06
Speaker 1: for popular BBC shows Top of the Pops, a British
1:09
Speaker 1: music chart show, and jim Will Fix It, a children's
1:12
Speaker 1: show that involved children viewers writing letters to Savil with
1:15
Speaker 1: a wish that would come true at the end of
1:17
Speaker 1: each episode. Now, Jimmy Savill definitely had an odd personality,
1:21
Speaker 1: and he was often seen on TV kissing random women
1:24
Speaker 1: and flirting with anyone who crossed his path. Needless to say,
1:28
Speaker 1: before his death, most of the UK loved him, But
1:30
Speaker 1: after his death in twenty eleven, hundreds, yes hundreds of
1:36
Speaker 1: delegations began to pop up, which resulted in numerous investigations,
1:40
Speaker 1: and what police ended up discovering made them believe that
1:43
Speaker 1: Jimmy Savill was one of Britain's most prolific, one of
1:47
Speaker 1: the worst predators of all time. The numbers we'll discuss
1:51
Speaker 1: later in this episode are truly just astounding. His victims
1:55
Speaker 1: were not only girls, but minor boys and adult women
1:58
Speaker 1: as well. But why didn't any one say a word
2:00
Speaker 1: about this until after Jimmy died? Was this man so
2:04
Speaker 1: influential that people were afraid to come forward until he
2:08
Speaker 1: was dead. You'll learn in this episode that it wasn't
2:10
Speaker 1: just Jimmy Saville. It was victimizing children inside the INSIDIOUSBBC network.
2:16
Speaker 1: Much like many of the other stories we've talked about here,
2:19
Speaker 1: this story itself involves a massive web of individuals who
2:23
Speaker 1: were involved in a hidden predator ring behind BBC's closed
2:26
Speaker 1: doors for decades, a ring that was swept under the
2:29
Speaker 1: rug and connected through several suspicious deaths. My name's Colin Brown.
2:34
Speaker 1: Thank you for tuning in today, and this is the
2:36
Speaker 1: Conspiracy Files. Now, before we get too far into this story,
2:47
Speaker 1: I do want to state the usuals. All parties are
2:49
Speaker 1: presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
2:52
Speaker 1: The opinions presented on today's show are solely my opinions,
2:56
Speaker 1: no one else's. I don't want to do anything to
2:59
Speaker 1: myself if I don't plan on going anywhere, I have
3:02
Speaker 1: no plans to do anything. If you know what I'm saying,
3:04
Speaker 1: I have to get around guidelines here. And yeah, if
3:07
Speaker 1: you want to research this story even further, I always
3:11
Speaker 1: without failed post a resources document in the description of
3:15
Speaker 1: this show. Whether you're listening on Spotify or Apple Podcasts,
3:18
Speaker 1: or you're watching on YouTube, the resources document is there,
3:21
Speaker 1: so if you want to conduct your own research and
3:24
Speaker 1: see where I'm gathering this information from. You can check
3:26
Speaker 1: that document out now. I will say the BBC has
3:30
Speaker 1: produced some incredible programming over the years, but this story
3:34
Speaker 1: is so big and so expansive and has so many
3:37
Speaker 1: dirty players in it, it's it's really hard to unravel
3:41
Speaker 1: this whole thing mentally. And this journey's been crazy, y'all.
3:44
Speaker 1: I started out last year really, you know, when I
3:47
Speaker 1: dug into Midnight Productions at North Fox Island and this
3:51
Speaker 1: other documentary that I've been working on for over a
3:53
Speaker 1: full year now, which I can't talk about yet for
3:56
Speaker 1: safety reasons. But going and decoding and decas instructing what
4:00
Speaker 1: I thought I knew about the world has led me
4:03
Speaker 1: to this point where it's like, wherever there's smoke, there's fire.
4:06
Speaker 1: Where there are the warning signs of crime, there's usually
4:10
Speaker 1: a crime that's been committed. And when it comes to
4:12
Speaker 1: these rings, there have been so many of these organized
4:16
Speaker 1: structures throughout not only American but global history that it's
4:22
Speaker 1: it's impossible truly to comprehend. And we're only finding out
4:26
Speaker 1: about so many of these things, you know, in the
4:28
Speaker 1: last five ten or so years. This has been going
4:31
Speaker 1: on for centuries, but some of these are just so
4:34
Speaker 1: well documented that it's insane. When you look at news
4:37
Speaker 1: sources they say that these things don't exist, and you're like, well,
4:40
Speaker 1: here's the police report, here's the arrest report, here's the evidence,
4:43
Speaker 1: and blah blah, YadA YadA. It's very clear that like,
4:46
Speaker 1: there are these these power structures that have enabled these
4:49
Speaker 1: people to get away with these crimes. And today we're
4:52
Speaker 1: focusing in on this BBC ring and I think this
4:55
Speaker 1: episode's going to blow your mind. Anyways, don't forget to
4:57
Speaker 1: leave me a comment and like the video if you're
4:59
Speaker 1: watching lead Mere Review, if you're listening, you can listen
5:02
Speaker 1: to the show uncensored on all podcasting platforms. But let's
5:05
Speaker 1: get into it. On the outside, Jimmy Saville looked like
5:09
Speaker 1: an amazing, unique individual who devoted his entire life to
5:12
Speaker 1: his entertaining work and helping others. He was known for
5:16
Speaker 1: fundraising and supporting different charities and hospitals and was considered
5:20
Speaker 1: to be a prodigious philanthropist. In nineteen seventy one, Jimmy
5:23
Speaker 1: Saville was awarded the Obe, which is the Order of
5:27
Speaker 1: the British Empire, a British order of chivalry that rewards
5:30
Speaker 1: contributions to the arts and sciences, work with charity and
5:34
Speaker 1: public service in the UK. It is a great honor
5:37
Speaker 1: to be awarded with one of these orders, and in
5:39
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety Jimmy Savell was knighted by the Queen of
5:43
Speaker 1: England and Pope John Paul the Second for his charitable
5:46
Speaker 1: work after Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher publicly and privately lobbied
5:50
Speaker 1: for him to receive knighthood. This changed his name to
5:53
Speaker 1: Sir James Saville. Jimmy was more than just a face
5:56
Speaker 1: on television. He was also connected to politicians and members
6:00
Speaker 1: of Parliament for decades before his death. He was involved
6:04
Speaker 1: in churches and worked at numerous hospitals around the UK
6:07
Speaker 1: as a part of his charity work. Everybody loved Jimmy Savell,
6:11
Speaker 1: but who was he really well. In two thousand and seven,
6:14
Speaker 1: Jimmy was almost exposed when Surrey police were contacted by
6:18
Speaker 1: a woman who said she witnessed an incident at the
6:20
Speaker 1: Duncroft School thirty years prior. Three other women who were
6:24
Speaker 1: interviewed independently ended up corroborating that woman's allegations, But when
6:28
Speaker 1: he was called in for a police interview, in two
6:30
Speaker 1: thousand and nine. Obviously, Jimmy Savill denied all of the
6:33
Speaker 1: allegations and threatened to sue the woman. The group of
6:36
Speaker 1: women were hesitant to go to trial, and the prosecutors
6:39
Speaker 1: ended up dropping the case a few weeks later. Of course,
6:42
Speaker 1: most people who caught wind of this refused to believe
6:45
Speaker 1: that Jimmy was capable of such inappropriate conduct, but they
6:48
Speaker 1: were in for a rude awakening only a few years later.
6:51
Speaker 1: After Jimmy Savell died right after his eighty fifth birthday
6:54
Speaker 1: in twenty eleven, his secrets began to emerge from the dark.
6:58
Speaker 1: A documentary presented by English investigative reporter Mark Williams Thomas,
7:02
Speaker 1: was broadcast a year after Jimmy's death on October third,
7:06
Speaker 1: twenty twelve. In the documentary, several women stated that they
7:10
Speaker 1: were by Jimmy Saville when they were teenagers, and this
7:14
Speaker 1: encouraged other victims to come forward. Within a week, allegations
7:17
Speaker 1: had been made against Jimmy Saville to thirteen different British
7:21
Speaker 1: police forces, which led to investigations of the BBC and
7:25
Speaker 1: the National Health Service, two organizations that had worked closely
7:28
Speaker 1: with Jimmy. In all, it has been reported that Jimmy
7:31
Speaker 1: Saville was most likely responsible for around four hundred people
7:37
Speaker 1: over a fifty four year span. Four hundred people in
7:42
Speaker 1: fifty four years. In twenty twenty four, Netflix released a
7:46
Speaker 1: two part documentary called Jimmy Saville, A British Horror Story,
7:50
Speaker 1: which revealed everything from Jimmy's rise to fame, his reputation
7:53
Speaker 1: after death, and the network of power behind him while
7:56
Speaker 1: he was alive. In that documentary, several victims talked to
7:59
Speaker 1: about their experiences with Jimmy. In twenty eleven, Karen Ward
8:04
Speaker 1: wrote about the she had suffered at the hands of
8:06
Speaker 1: Savile on Friends Reunited, which was a portfolio of social
8:10
Speaker 1: networking websites at the time. Now Ward stated that Jimmy
8:14
Speaker 1: used to bribe her in the nineteen seventies, promising her
8:16
Speaker 1: that he would allow her and her friends to be
8:19
Speaker 1: on his TV show in exchange for feeling pressured. Jimmy
8:23
Speaker 1: took the woman to his car, and another woman, Sam Brown,
8:27
Speaker 1: came forward and stated that Jimmy Saville had her several
8:31
Speaker 1: times when she was a miner attending church services at
8:34
Speaker 1: the Mandeville Chapel. Jimmy regularly worked with charities throughout his
8:38
Speaker 1: life and was especially intertwined with the broad Moor Psychiatric Hospital,
8:43
Speaker 1: at the Duncroft School and the stoke Manville Hospital. Jimmy
8:46
Speaker 1: didn't just raise money for them, he also put in
8:49
Speaker 1: some hours in person helping hospital attendance ten to the sick.
8:52
Speaker 1: Broadmore's staff even gave Jimmy Saville his own room to
8:56
Speaker 1: stay in when he visited their campus and at other hospitals,
8:59
Speaker 1: Jimmy came his camper van in the parking lot. I
9:02
Speaker 1: guess back then it didn't seem that odd for Jimmy
9:04
Speaker 1: to be doing all that, but looking back and knowing
9:07
Speaker 1: what we know now, we now know that there were
9:09
Speaker 1: a lot of terrible things that took place in that
9:12
Speaker 1: camper van. Interestingly, Jimmy also had special privileges in the
9:16
Speaker 1: places that he volunteered at and was given access to
9:19
Speaker 1: restricted parts of certain hospitals. And unfortunately, Jimmy used this
9:24
Speaker 1: special treatment and this special access to his advantage. His
9:28
Speaker 1: crimes took place in hospital wards, corridors, offices, parking lots
9:33
Speaker 1: and more. At Broadmoor, a psychiatric hospital in Crowthorne, England,
9:38
Speaker 1: where he frequently worked, Jimmy was caught watching female staff
9:41
Speaker 1: and patience on dress. Why didn't anyone say something? Though
9:45
Speaker 1: he was caught many many times by staff, other volunteers,
9:48
Speaker 1: people that were just there at the hospitals, and no
9:51
Speaker 1: one really said anything or raised any fuss. Well. In
9:54
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty eight, the senior civil servant in charge of
9:57
Speaker 1: mental health within the Department of Health and so Social Security,
10:00
Speaker 1: a man named Cliff Graham, had formed a close working
10:03
Speaker 1: relationship with Jimmy Savell. He thought of him as quote
10:06
Speaker 1: a man of considerable understanding, insight and intelligence end quote.
10:11
Speaker 1: Cliff even accompanied Jimmy to Buckingham Palace when Jimmy's knighthood
10:15
Speaker 1: was granted. Cliff eventually appointed Jimmy to oversee a task
10:19
Speaker 1: force effectively running the hospital. Jimmy was then given the
10:23
Speaker 1: formal role as chair of the Hospital Advisory Committee. And
10:26
Speaker 1: at that point he had access to anybody in any
10:30
Speaker 1: place on the campus grounds. He had access to any
10:33
Speaker 1: child he could want access to. He had access to
10:35
Speaker 1: places of the building like the morgue, and yeah, we're
10:38
Speaker 1: going to talk about all that in a second. This
10:40
Speaker 1: decision was reported to Edwin A. Curry, the Minister for
10:43
Speaker 1: Mental Health issues at the time. Curry said that the
10:46
Speaker 1: Task Force seemed like a good idea since Jimmy Savell
10:49
Speaker 1: promised to confront the Prison Officer Association about their unfair
10:53
Speaker 1: working practices. She thought that this blackmail approach to the
10:57
Speaker 1: POA was a pretty classy piece of operation. During a
11:00
Speaker 1: press release, she stated that Jimmy Savill was an amazing
11:04
Speaker 1: man who has my full confidence. She claimed that most
11:07
Speaker 1: of the revelations regarding Jimmy's were completely new to her
11:10
Speaker 1: and that his behavior had been completely hidden at the time.
11:14
Speaker 1: But Labor Member of the Parliament Tom Watson has openly
11:17
Speaker 1: questioned Curry and other ministers about the access that they
11:21
Speaker 1: granted to Jimmy Saville, who had senior political connections at
11:24
Speaker 1: the time, including, of course, a close friendship with a
11:27
Speaker 1: Margaret Thatcher. Jimmy also had a close relationship with Ken Clark,
11:31
Speaker 1: the Health Secretary at the time. Now, according to Tom Watson,
11:35
Speaker 1: that Labor Member of the Parliament and winn A Curry's
11:38
Speaker 1: actions and her special treatment that she granted Jimmy Saville
11:41
Speaker 1: quote allowed a dangerous predatory unfettered access to some of
11:46
Speaker 1: the most vulnerable people in the country end quote. Personally,
11:50
Speaker 1: I don't see how Jimmy Saville, who wasn't a medical
11:53
Speaker 1: professional in any sense, could have had a formal role
11:56
Speaker 1: overseeing an entire hospital and choosing who to hire for
11:59
Speaker 1: any any other reason than because of his influence and
12:02
Speaker 1: his background connections, connections that weren't innocent, to say the least. Now,
12:06
Speaker 1: as you can tell, right back then the web was
12:09
Speaker 1: starting to form. Jimmy was given access to all these
12:12
Speaker 1: buildings where like I said, he could immediately get access
12:15
Speaker 1: to children. He could walk into the children's ward at
12:17
Speaker 1: any time of day or night. He could request time
12:20
Speaker 1: alone with any child. He could take children out of
12:22
Speaker 1: their rooms. He could corner workers, corner nurses, corner staff.
12:25
Speaker 1: He could get the keys to any old, abandoned part
12:28
Speaker 1: of the hospital grounds that he's so pleased to get
12:30
Speaker 1: keys for. And this was all just handed to him
12:32
Speaker 1: on a silver platter. Investigators found that Jimmy Saville's role
12:36
Speaker 1: of overseeing that hospital task force enabled him to use
12:40
Speaker 1: his influence to appoint a close associate, a good friend
12:43
Speaker 1: of his, as the general manager of Broadmoor for the
12:46
Speaker 1: next eight years, Alan Frainey. Now Allan was in experience
12:50
Speaker 1: for this position, but he was a friend of Jimmy's
12:53
Speaker 1: and Unsurprisingly, his intentions were also incredibly questionable. During that time,
12:58
Speaker 1: a female nurse who was working at the hospital was
13:00
Speaker 1: reported to have had a relationship with a female patient,
13:04
Speaker 1: and she was fired for unprofessional conduct. After her termination
13:08
Speaker 1: appeal was denied, she began a legal case threatening to
13:11
Speaker 1: expose a negative conduct that was happening amongst the hospital's management.
13:16
Speaker 1: The documents that were showed at the time were believed
13:18
Speaker 1: to have included allegations about Alan Frainy's personal conduct. Remember,
13:23
Speaker 1: Alan is one of Jimmy's best friends, and Jimmy got
13:26
Speaker 1: him that job, disturbing allegations involving herself, the nurse, and
13:31
Speaker 1: other staff members. Now, she eventually dropped that case and
13:34
Speaker 1: all documentation of that lawsuit was destroyed. It's never been
13:37
Speaker 1: found or seen again to this day, and even to
13:40
Speaker 1: this very day, members of the Department of Health have
13:43
Speaker 1: stated to the public that they're suspicious of what happened
13:46
Speaker 1: with this entire lawsuit and these allegations. Members of the
13:49
Speaker 1: Department of Health actually believed that there may have been
13:52
Speaker 1: a payoff at some point, somebody paid this nurse to
13:54
Speaker 1: drop the suit and fade into oblivion, and obviously all
13:58
Speaker 1: the documentation and the allegationations that had been written down
14:01
Speaker 1: were destroyed and sent to the void with her. So
14:04
Speaker 1: Jimmy Saville, after being appointed to that new role, used
14:07
Speaker 1: that role to enhance the impression that he was close
14:10
Speaker 1: to government ministers and Department of Health officials, therefore making
14:14
Speaker 1: it seem like Jimmy Saville was in some sort of
14:16
Speaker 1: a position of authority, and like many other predators before
14:20
Speaker 1: and after him, Jimmy was using this power and influence
14:23
Speaker 1: to get away with decades of crimes. There were rumors
14:28
Speaker 1: of Jimmy Savill's inappropriate behavior towards young women during his
14:31
Speaker 1: time at Broadmoor, but nothing ever came from it. Where
14:34
Speaker 1: all these higher ups protecting each other, That's a good question.
14:38
Speaker 1: Chris Patten, the chairman of the BBC Trust wrote, quote
14:41
Speaker 1: the BBC's reputation is on the line. The BBC risks
14:45
Speaker 1: squandering public trust because one of its stars over three
14:48
Speaker 1: decades was apparently a criminal, and because others BBC employees
14:53
Speaker 1: and hangers on may also have been involved. End quote.
14:57
Speaker 1: Even today the chairman is stating that Jimmy Saville was
15:00
Speaker 1: apparently a criminal. There aren't any apparent crimes. We need
15:05
Speaker 1: to make that very very apparent and obvious and firm.
15:09
Speaker 1: There are hundreds of victims who have made the same
15:13
Speaker 1: allegations against Jimmy Saville, who have spent their entire lives
15:17
Speaker 1: absolutely terrified to come forward and tell the world about
15:21
Speaker 1: the horrors that they experienced at the hands of one
15:23
Speaker 1: of Britain's most beloved men. In the Netflix documentary about
15:27
Speaker 1: Jimmy Savill, many brave survivors told their stories and its
15:30
Speaker 1: gut wrenching. One woman in particular told the story about
15:34
Speaker 1: going to church with Jimmy Saville when she was only
15:36
Speaker 1: eleven years old. Every week Jimmy would take her into
15:39
Speaker 1: the church and sir under the desks and in empty rooms.
15:43
Speaker 1: It got so bad that this young girl would make
15:46
Speaker 1: sure to wear several layers of underwear and even tampons
15:49
Speaker 1: before she went to church, even though she hadn't hit
15:52
Speaker 1: puberty yet, because she knew what was going to happen
15:55
Speaker 1: to her when she got there, and she was trying
15:57
Speaker 1: to prevent it. It's incredibly sad and haunting, and she
16:00
Speaker 1: was only one of the hundreds of victims. Like I
16:04
Speaker 1: said before, there are dozens hundreds more with similar stories.
16:08
Speaker 1: The BBC set up an independent investigation in twenty twelve
16:12
Speaker 1: into the corporation's culture and practices during the years that
16:15
Speaker 1: Jimmy Saville worked there. It also launched its own separate
16:19
Speaker 1: inquiry into why it's managers dropped an investigation into the
16:22
Speaker 1: allegations against Jimmy Savill years prior. When asked why no
16:27
Speaker 1: action had been taken against Jimmy Saville for almost fifty years,
16:30
Speaker 1: the police commissioner said people had relied too much on
16:34
Speaker 1: Savill's reputation and his word that he hadn't done anything. Additionally,
16:38
Speaker 1: it was later revealed that police investigations at that time
16:42
Speaker 1: lacked the specialist skills, knowledge and collaborative approach that was
16:46
Speaker 1: needed to bust a criminal like Jimmy Savill. But that's
16:50
Speaker 1: a bit contrary to what's known now. You see, many
16:52
Speaker 1: previous employees of the BBC have gone on the record
16:56
Speaker 1: and stated that for years they knew the rumors surrounding
16:59
Speaker 1: Jimmy Saville. Years before he was dead, they knew that
17:02
Speaker 1: he had been victimizing innocent kids across the United Kingdom.
17:06
Speaker 1: The former BBC Governor for Wales and former UK Chairman
17:09
Speaker 1: of BBC's Children in Need, a man named Sir Roger
17:13
Speaker 1: Jones has also gone on the record and stated that
17:15
Speaker 1: he had had suspicions about Jimmy Savell for years. He said, quote,
17:19
Speaker 1: I think we all recognized he was a pretty creepy
17:22
Speaker 1: sort of character end quote, yet no one ever did anything.
17:25
Speaker 1: So he had all these people that were surrounding Jimmy Saville,
17:28
Speaker 1: people noticing that he is creepy, saying he was a
17:31
Speaker 1: creepy character, saying obviously he behaves inappropriate with children. They
17:34
Speaker 1: were openly stating this and they all knew it, yet
17:37
Speaker 1: no one did anything. It should be stated also here
17:39
Speaker 1: that Sir Roger Jones eventually decided that he was no
17:42
Speaker 1: longer going to let Jimmy Savell onto the set of
17:46
Speaker 1: Children in Need, but he also failed to tell management
17:49
Speaker 1: why he made this decision and about the band because
17:51
Speaker 1: he lacked any hard evidence against Jimmy. He just said, Jimmy,
17:55
Speaker 1: you're no longer welcome here, but he didn't tell anybody
17:58
Speaker 1: above him about why he won welcome. After Jimmy's death
18:01
Speaker 1: in twenty eleven, producer Myron Jones produced an expos documentary
18:06
Speaker 1: which helped start that investigation into Jimmy Saville. Myron first
18:10
Speaker 1: discovered accusations against Jimmy Savell that dated all the way
18:13
Speaker 1: back to the nineteen seventies. You see, at the time,
18:16
Speaker 1: his aunt ran an institution called the Duncroft School in Middlesex.
18:20
Speaker 1: It was for a troubled teen girls who had committed
18:23
Speaker 1: serious crimes. The place was something between a prison and
18:26
Speaker 1: a school, a place that would supposedly help these kids
18:29
Speaker 1: finish their studies and grow into responsible adults. Myron always
18:33
Speaker 1: noticed that Jimmy Savell would show up at Duncroft all
18:37
Speaker 1: the time. He said. He always thought it was weird.
18:39
Speaker 1: Why was Jimmy there to hang out with these troubled
18:41
Speaker 1: teenage girls. Not only that, according to Myron, Jimmy was
18:45
Speaker 1: often seen leaving the campus with some of the schoolgirls
18:48
Speaker 1: in the back of his rolls Royce And when Myron
18:51
Speaker 1: wanted to air his investigation into Jimmy Saville on the BBC,
18:55
Speaker 1: they straight up refuse. They told him, no way, we
18:58
Speaker 1: will not air this. We will not we will not
19:01
Speaker 1: show this. Some of the main points discovered during that
19:04
Speaker 1: inquiry into the BBC's operations while Jimmy Saville was there
19:07
Speaker 1: are as follows. During that time, the BBC was a
19:10
Speaker 1: place ripe with discrimination and harassment. There were quote serious
19:15
Speaker 1: failings in the BBC's culture and systems of communication, management
19:19
Speaker 1: and investigation, and had these failures been addressed at the time,
19:23
Speaker 1: Jimmy Savill's activities could have been stopped. But no complaints
19:26
Speaker 1: were made about Jimmy Savill to the BBC's duty Office,
19:29
Speaker 1: as would be the appropriate procedure, although there were eight
19:32
Speaker 1: different occasions on which complaints were made in other ways.
19:36
Speaker 1: The first complaint was made in the late nineteen sixties
19:39
Speaker 1: and concerned Jimmy Savill inappropriately kissing a member of staff
19:43
Speaker 1: in Manchester. Some members of the BBC's staff were aware
19:47
Speaker 1: of Jimmy Savill's inappropriate conduct in connection with his work
19:51
Speaker 1: for the BBC, but like I said before, there was
19:53
Speaker 1: no evidence that any senior member of staff was aware
19:57
Speaker 1: of Jimmy's conduct. The earliest known incident was the of
20:00
Speaker 1: a thirteen year old girl at Limagrove Studios in the
20:03
Speaker 1: year nineteen fifty nine, and the very last known incident
20:07
Speaker 1: was in two thousand and six at the last recording
20:10
Speaker 1: of Jimmy's program Top of the Pops. Investigator Dame Janet
20:14
Speaker 1: Smith had her own inquiry into Jimmy Saville and the BBC,
20:18
Speaker 1: and discovered that Jimmy would commit whenever and wherever the
20:23
Speaker 1: opportunity arose. She states that incidents took place basically in
20:27
Speaker 1: every single one of BBC's premises at which he worked.
20:30
Speaker 1: Jimmy's usual tactics with young girls and sometimes boys was
20:34
Speaker 1: to by first inviting them to watch him perform on set,
20:38
Speaker 1: then later on making advances towards them in his dressing
20:41
Speaker 1: room afterwards. One junior employee stated that she was once
20:45
Speaker 1: told to keep her mouth shut because Jimmy was a VIP.
20:48
Speaker 1: So the police called the investigation into Jimmy Savill's crimes
20:52
Speaker 1: Operation U Tree. The Metro Police worked with a National
20:55
Speaker 1: Society for the Prevention of Cruelty of Children otherwise known
20:58
Speaker 1: as NSPCC in this investigation, Operation U Tree, led by
21:03
Speaker 1: Detective Chief Inspector Michael Orchard, started in twenty twelve and
21:07
Speaker 1: led the police to a list of other perpetrators and
21:10
Speaker 1: posited that Jimmy Savill may have just been the center
21:13
Speaker 1: of a wider predator ring. It also raised questions about
21:16
Speaker 1: whether the BBC had ignored these crimes it suspected over
21:20
Speaker 1: several decades. Operation YU Tree found that the majority of
21:24
Speaker 1: the victims of this organized ring were aged thirteen to sixteen,
21:28
Speaker 1: and the crimes were on a national scale. Those involved
21:31
Speaker 1: in the operation described it as a watershed moment for
21:34
Speaker 1: its investigations and a landmark investigation. The operation followed three strands,
21:40
Speaker 1: allegations against Jimmy Savill, allegations against Jimmy Saville and others,
21:44
Speaker 1: and allegations that just involved other predators in general. At
21:48
Speaker 1: the end of twenty twelve, the investigation was completed and
21:51
Speaker 1: the report was released in January twenty thirteen, called Giving
21:55
Speaker 1: Victims a Voice. In May twenty thirteen, The New York
21:58
Speaker 1: Times reported that at least six DC nine police officers
22:01
Speaker 1: and staff members were involved in the operation and that
22:04
Speaker 1: many of the suspects were celebrities no surprise there. It
22:07
Speaker 1: resulted in the arrests of eighteen TV presenters, comedians and
22:12
Speaker 1: other show business associates, one of them being BBC Children's
22:16
Speaker 1: presenter Rolf Harris, who was charged for indecent dating back
22:20
Speaker 1: decades with victims as young as eight years old. An
22:23
Speaker 1: investigation into British singer Cliff Richard and English comedian and
22:27
Speaker 1: actor Jimmy Tarbuck were also opened but never resulted in charges.
22:32
Speaker 1: Going back to giving victims a voice. Here's some information
22:35
Speaker 1: that was revealed in that report. So Jimmy Saville offended
22:38
Speaker 1: at thirteen hospitals, including the Broadmoor High Security Psychiatric Hospital,
22:43
Speaker 1: the Saint James Leeds Hospital, the hy Royds Psychiatric Hospital,
22:47
Speaker 1: the Dewsbury Hospital, the Wycombe General Hospital, the Great Ormond
22:51
Speaker 1: Street Hospital in nineteen seventy one, the Ashworth Hospital, the
22:55
Speaker 1: Exeter Hospital, the Royal Portsmouth Hospital, the Saint Catharine's Hospital
22:59
Speaker 1: in Birkenhead and the Saxondale Mental Health Hospital. A total
23:02
Speaker 1: of fourteen offenses were recorded in relation to schools. Jimmy
23:07
Speaker 1: Saville's youngest victim was an eight year old boy and
23:10
Speaker 1: the oldest was a forty seven year old woman. The
23:12
Speaker 1: earliest allegation is from nineteen fifty five in Manchester and
23:16
Speaker 1: the last two thousand and nine. Offenses were carried out
23:19
Speaker 1: at the BBC between nineteen sixty five and two thousand
23:22
Speaker 1: and six, and peak offending took place between nineteen sixty
23:26
Speaker 1: six and nineteen seventy six. According to this report, Jimmy
23:29
Speaker 1: Saville was just roaming around the United Kingdom committing all
23:33
Speaker 1: these crimes for most of his life and not a
23:36
Speaker 1: thing was done until he died. He probably felt like
23:39
Speaker 1: he was invincible and sadly he was the giving victims
23:42
Speaker 1: of voice. Report concluded that there was no real evidence
23:45
Speaker 1: to suggest that Jimmy Savill operated a predator rank, but
23:48
Speaker 1: investigations continued regarding the possibility of him being a member
23:53
Speaker 1: of an information network. Many of the male and female
23:56
Speaker 1: victims retained lawyers when all this came out. According to
23:59
Speaker 1: their lawyers, many of the victims claimed that an organized
24:02
Speaker 1: predator ring had existed at the BBC during the time
24:05
Speaker 1: Jimmy Saville was there. According to one of the lead
24:08
Speaker 1: lawyers involved in the cases, Alicia Alinia, she stated that
24:12
Speaker 1: there seemed to have been a number of people who
24:14
Speaker 1: were involved in this whole thing other than Jimmy Saville.
24:17
Speaker 1: She said she couldn't reveal specific names of celebrities, but
24:20
Speaker 1: it wasn't just limited to random people. Lawmaker Tom Watson
24:24
Speaker 1: also stated that a senior aid to a former Prime
24:27
Speaker 1: minister might have been involved in the suspected predator ring.
24:30
Speaker 1: Given his influence throughout the UK and connections with the government,
24:34
Speaker 1: it's no surprise at all that Jimmy Savill was likely
24:36
Speaker 1: involved in something bigger than just himself. Next, we're going
24:40
Speaker 1: to talk about some more individuals involved with Jimmy Savill
24:43
Speaker 1: and the BBC and the likelihood that a predator ring
24:46
Speaker 1: existed in playing Sight. First of all, we have Gary Glitter.
24:50
Speaker 1: During the investigation into Jimmy Savill, another face of the
24:53
Speaker 1: BBC was revealed. Paul Gadd, famously known as Gary Glitter
24:58
Speaker 1: now Gary Glitter, is a former English singer who was
25:01
Speaker 1: the most popular during the seventies and eighties. You definitely
25:04
Speaker 1: know some of Gary Glitter's music. One of his songs
25:06
Speaker 1: was infamously used in the twenty nineteen Joker film, and
25:10
Speaker 1: there is huge backlash because they used that song after
25:13
Speaker 1: all this stuff had happened. But Gary Glitter's career ended
25:16
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety nine after he was convicted of downloading
25:20
Speaker 1: which I'm going to refer to as CP throughout the
25:23
Speaker 1: rest of this video. But first let's go through Gary's
25:26
Speaker 1: criminal history. In the nineteen seventies, he was acquitted of
25:29
Speaker 1: a charge of activity with an underage girl. In nineteen
25:32
Speaker 1: ninety seven, he was arrested for downloading thousands of CP
25:36
Speaker 1: images and videos. He later faced criminal charges and deportation
25:41
Speaker 1: from several countries in connection with actual and suspected child
25:47
Speaker 1: In two thousand and two, Gary Glitter was deported from
25:50
Speaker 1: Cambodia on suspected child charges and he then settled in Vietnam.
25:55
Speaker 1: In two thousand and six, he was convicted of obscene
25:58
Speaker 1: acts with in Vietnam. After serving his sentence, Glitter was
26:02
Speaker 1: deported to the United Kingdom and was placed on the
26:06
Speaker 1: register for life. After the Jimmy Savills scandal, Gary Glitter
26:10
Speaker 1: was arrested again in twenty twelve as a part of
26:13
Speaker 1: Operation Yew Tree. He was released on bail, and in
26:16
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen he was charged with historical child In twenty fifteen,
26:22
Speaker 1: he was found guilty of one count of attempted, one
26:24
Speaker 1: count of unlawful with a girl under thirteen, and four
26:28
Speaker 1: counts of indecent. He was sentenced to sixteen years in prison.
26:32
Speaker 1: He was then released in February twenty twenty three after
26:35
Speaker 1: serving half of his sentence in prison, but sent back
26:38
Speaker 1: a month later after breaching the conditions of his release.
26:42
Speaker 1: His parole was denied in February twenty twenty four. Obviously,
26:46
Speaker 1: I've talked about this before on my TikTok. Gary Glitter
26:49
Speaker 1: has some major issues and he's a hardcore. Shortly after
26:53
Speaker 1: Gary's parole was denied, a new TV documentary revealed something
26:57
Speaker 1: troubling for the BBC. In nineteen ninety five, Gary Glitter
27:01
Speaker 1: was accused of a fourteen year old girl, but still,
27:04
Speaker 1: one year later, he was offered the starring role in
27:08
Speaker 1: BBC's Children in Need telethon. Gary Glitter and Jimmy Savell
27:12
Speaker 1: worked there at the same time and actually became friends.
27:15
Speaker 1: One eyewitness, Karen Ward, claimed that she once saw Gary
27:19
Speaker 1: Glitter having relations with a teenage girl inside of Jimmy
27:23
Speaker 1: Savill's dressing room at the BBC. Was this possibly one
27:27
Speaker 1: of the girls seen in the back of Jimmy's fancy car?
27:29
Speaker 1: Why was there an unaccompanied miner there to begin with?
27:32
Speaker 1: And why didn't anyone question this? Obviously, there's so much
27:36
Speaker 1: to talk about with Gary Glitter and how he's somehow
27:39
Speaker 1: beaten so many charges and gotten out of prison so
27:42
Speaker 1: many times, but we need to press on. Chris Denning
27:44
Speaker 1: was an English radio presenter who was the first announcer
27:47
Speaker 1: heard on BBC two, a British news show, when it
27:50
Speaker 1: started in nineteen sixty four. Only a few years before,
27:54
Speaker 1: in nineteen fifty nine, Chris Denning had been jailed in
27:57
Speaker 1: Germany for distributing images. This was only the beginning. In
28:01
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy four, Chris was convicted of gross indecency and
28:05
Speaker 1: indecent but wasn't sentenced to prison. In nineteen eighty five,
28:09
Speaker 1: he was sent to prison for gross indecency with a child,
28:12
Speaker 1: and three years later sent back for indecent on a
28:15
Speaker 1: thirteen year old boy and possession of indecent photos or
28:19
Speaker 1: CP images. In nineteen ninety six, Chris was sent to
28:23
Speaker 1: prison for ten weeks for publishing more indecent photos, and
28:27
Speaker 1: four years later in two thousand, Chris was on trial
28:30
Speaker 1: and convicted of seven boys under the age of fifteen.
28:34
Speaker 1: He was released in two thousand and one. Bizarre right,
28:38
Speaker 1: he had victimized seven children and he was released after
28:43
Speaker 1: one year. Only one year served in prison for victimizing
28:47
Speaker 1: seven underaged boys. In twenty fourteen, Chris was sent to
28:51
Speaker 1: prison for thirteen years over this of fourteen minor boys.
28:56
Speaker 1: The victimization of one of these boys allegedly took place
29:00
Speaker 1: in the home of Jimmy Saville. Chris Denning would take
29:03
Speaker 1: the young boys to watch the Top of the Pops
29:05
Speaker 1: hosted by Jimmy Saville, and would introduce them to celebrities,
29:09
Speaker 1: including Jimmy Savill. This is typical behavior of predators, especially
29:13
Speaker 1: ones that are involved in these networks the children and
29:17
Speaker 1: bribe them with special things or trips, special things like
29:20
Speaker 1: attending a popular show like the Top of the Pops
29:22
Speaker 1: and meeting stars. The boys said they were frequently taken
29:25
Speaker 1: to parties that were full of celebrities. Although some of
29:29
Speaker 1: the crimes against these boys happened in Jimmy Saville's own home,
29:33
Speaker 1: it was claimed that he wasn't even involved. But that
29:35
Speaker 1: statement just doesn't make sense to me, But it goes
29:38
Speaker 1: to show that that's the kind of power that a
29:39
Speaker 1: guy like Jimmy Savill head over everyone. Chris Denning, along
29:43
Speaker 1: with other well known people, was definitely a part of
29:46
Speaker 1: a child's group based around a nightclub called the Walton
29:50
Speaker 1: Hop in England. Other people that frequented that joint included
29:54
Speaker 1: Tom Patton, Scottish manager of the pop rock band Bay
29:57
Speaker 1: City Rollers, and singer songwriter Jonathan King. Tam Patten was
30:00
Speaker 1: eventually discovered to be running a predator ring, and Jonathan
30:04
Speaker 1: King was associated with you guessed it Jimmy Savill. But
30:07
Speaker 1: like Jimmy Savill, the complaints against Tam Patten were frequently
30:11
Speaker 1: ignored until they became too loud. Jonathan King is an
30:15
Speaker 1: English singer, songwriter and record producer. He was involved with
30:19
Speaker 1: all these guys we've talked about, and apparently he used
30:21
Speaker 1: his fame to lure and young boys. In two thousand
30:25
Speaker 1: and one, Jonathan was sent to prison for seven years
30:28
Speaker 1: for five teenaged boys, but he continues to claim his
30:32
Speaker 1: innocence to this day. He also publicly claims that Jimmy
30:35
Speaker 1: Savill was completely innocent and that all of his victims
30:38
Speaker 1: are actually his accusers. He stated, quote the crimes never happened.
30:42
Speaker 1: At least miscarriages of justice in cases of murder have
30:45
Speaker 1: bodies to show that crimes did take place end quote. Thankfully,
30:49
Speaker 1: though the public, normal people like you and I don't
30:52
Speaker 1: buy it. UK articles refer to Jonathan King and others
30:55
Speaker 1: as disgraced perverts, and that's exactly what they are. Jonathan
30:59
Speaker 1: King was friends with Jimmy Saville and even appeared on
31:01
Speaker 1: his show Top of the Pops in nineteen eighty. In
31:04
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen, the BBC's governing body rejected a complaint that
31:08
Speaker 1: said that they shouldn't have rebroadcast the episode with King
31:11
Speaker 1: since he was subsequently convicted against kids. According to the BBC,
31:17
Speaker 1: King's episode wasn't inappropriate and did not break editorial guidelines,
31:21
Speaker 1: despite the fact that they apparently make these decisions on
31:24
Speaker 1: a case by case basis, taking into account the potential
31:27
Speaker 1: sensitivity surrounding the person. I'd say that the crimes Jonathan
31:31
Speaker 1: King committed were extremely sensitive and vile in nature, but
31:35
Speaker 1: I guess that's just me. Rolf Harris Ralf Harris was
31:38
Speaker 1: an Australian musician, TV personality, painter and actor. He was
31:42
Speaker 1: most famous for his British children's television shows, and he
31:45
Speaker 1: was loved by the public. Rolf too was associated with
31:49
Speaker 1: Jimmy Saville and held a slot on a BBC show
31:51
Speaker 1: in nineteen fifty two, which launched his career. Rolf was
31:55
Speaker 1: arrested during Operation U Tree for and went on trial
31:59
Speaker 1: in twenty four where he was subsequently convicted and sentenced
32:03
Speaker 1: to five years and nine months in prison. He was
32:05
Speaker 1: released early, though sadly, in twenty seventeen, and one of
32:09
Speaker 1: his convictions, involving an eight year old girl, was overturned.
32:13
Speaker 1: One of Rolf's victims was a friend of his daughter,
32:15
Speaker 1: who claimed she was by Rolf between the ages of
32:19
Speaker 1: thirteen and nineteen. Rolf claimed their relationship was mutual, and
32:23
Speaker 1: his friends and family supported him throughout the entire trial. Ironically,
32:28
Speaker 1: Rolf Harris actually created a video in nineteen eighty five
32:32
Speaker 1: called Kids Can Say No, a child's safety video, which
32:36
Speaker 1: told children about how they could avoid The film starts
32:41
Speaker 1: eerily with Rolf singing a song with a group of
32:43
Speaker 1: children that says, my body's nobody's body, but mine. You
32:47
Speaker 1: run your own body, Let me run mine. It's obvious,
32:50
Speaker 1: knowing what we know now that he was trying to
32:52
Speaker 1: hide in plain sight. In the mid nineteen seventies, Jimmy
32:55
Speaker 1: Savill gave Rolf Harris a tour of Broadmoor Hospital, the
32:59
Speaker 1: hospital we discussed earlier that Jimmy Savill somehow became in
33:03
Speaker 1: charge of. There were reports that emerged at the time
33:05
Speaker 1: that Jimmy Saville showed Rolf around the rooms when the
33:08
Speaker 1: girls were undressing and getting ready for bed. One of
33:11
Speaker 1: the former patients stated that it was strange that Rolf
33:14
Speaker 1: Harris arrived at the same time that they were getting
33:17
Speaker 1: ready for bed late at night and believed that he
33:19
Speaker 1: had showed up at that exact time deliberately. Again, more
33:23
Speaker 1: typical behavior of a sadistic Bring your other predator friends
33:27
Speaker 1: around and give them access to what you have access to.
33:30
Speaker 1: There's no reason why Jimmy Savell would randomly give Rolf
33:34
Speaker 1: Harris a tour of the Broadmoor Hospital, especially when he
33:37
Speaker 1: knew that the young girls would be getting undressed in
33:39
Speaker 1: the hallways for bedtime. It's bizarre. There's also Stuart Hall.
33:44
Speaker 1: Stuart is a former English broadcaster with the BBC who
33:47
Speaker 1: was most known for his show called It's a Knockout.
33:50
Speaker 1: The investigations into Jimmy Saville also led investigators to Stuart Hall,
33:54
Speaker 1: and a separate investigation was then opened. In twenty thirteen,
33:57
Speaker 1: Stuart admitted that he had thirteen different girls and was
34:01
Speaker 1: sentenced too drum roll please, fifteen months in prison for
34:05
Speaker 1: fourteen counts of indecent That's almost a full month per
34:09
Speaker 1: every victim. That's crazy, that's just insane. Stuart's sentence was
34:15
Speaker 1: later doubled to a whopping thirty months thanks to the
34:18
Speaker 1: Attorney General arguing that his sentence was unduly lenient. I
34:22
Speaker 1: obviously still think that thirty months is incredibly lenient. I
34:27
Speaker 1: think thirteen young girls should land you in prison for life,
34:31
Speaker 1: if not something more extreme, But I'm glad that someone
34:34
Speaker 1: at least spoke up. According to former BBC employees, BBC
34:38
Speaker 1: managers turned a blind eye to Stuart Hall frequently luring
34:41
Speaker 1: young girls into his dressing room. Stuart apparently had a
34:45
Speaker 1: special room set aside for this, and he would often
34:47
Speaker 1: jokingly refer to the girls to others as his nieces.
34:51
Speaker 1: Gary Clark, former BBC studio worker, stated that managers definitely
34:55
Speaker 1: knew what Stuart was doing and that quote Stuart could
34:58
Speaker 1: do what Stuart could do end quote. Not only were
35:01
Speaker 1: Jimmy Savill and Stuart Hall both high profilers with the BBC,
35:05
Speaker 1: they both had very similar personalities. They liked to young girls,
35:08
Speaker 1: and they liked to use their fame to their advantage.
35:11
Speaker 1: Because of their status, it seems that the BBC willingly
35:14
Speaker 1: did nothing. They didn't want to lose any of their
35:16
Speaker 1: beloved stars who were bringing in viewers, advertising money, and
35:20
Speaker 1: cultural significance. There's also Dave Lee Travis. Dave Lee Travis
35:24
Speaker 1: is a former English DJ and TV presenter. Like the others,
35:27
Speaker 1: He was one of the BBC's leading presenters during the
35:30
Speaker 1: nineteen seventies and eighties. He was also a frequent presenter
35:33
Speaker 1: on Jimmy Savill's show Top of the Pops. In twenty twelve,
35:37
Speaker 1: he was arrested as a result of Operation Yu Tree.
35:39
Speaker 1: In twenty fourteen, he was found not guilty on twelve
35:43
Speaker 1: of the counts and found guilty on retrial a year
35:45
Speaker 1: later and given a sentence of drum roll please three
35:49
Speaker 1: months in prison. Dave Lee Travis claimed that he knew
35:52
Speaker 1: that Jimmy Savill liked young girls while they worked together,
35:56
Speaker 1: but apparently he didn't think that any of the girls
35:58
Speaker 1: that he ever saw around Jimmy were under age. When
36:01
Speaker 1: asked about their relationship, Dave claims that he only knew
36:04
Speaker 1: Jimmy as a colleague and nothing more. I find this
36:07
Speaker 1: highly unlikely given the two's similar behaviors and crimes. Another
36:11
Speaker 1: predator working for the same broadcasting network at the same
36:14
Speaker 1: time as Jimmy Saville. He's even on Jimmy Savill's show.
36:18
Speaker 1: It's highly unlikely to me that these guys had nothing
36:20
Speaker 1: to do with each other. There's also Ray Tarrett. Ray
36:23
Speaker 1: was a former chauffeur and assistant of Jimmy Savill that
36:26
Speaker 1: was convicted in twenty fourteen for an indecent Before this,
36:31
Speaker 1: Ray was found guilty of having with a fifteen year
36:34
Speaker 1: old girl. Overall, Ray was accused of more than thirty
36:38
Speaker 1: offenses and crimes, including eighteen charges, some dating back to
36:43
Speaker 1: the nineteen sixties. One of the charges related to an
36:46
Speaker 1: offense that was committed by Ray and Jimmy Savill together
36:49
Speaker 1: at the same time. Ray denied everything, yet he couldn't
36:53
Speaker 1: deny that he and Jimmy Saville had spent decades together,
36:56
Speaker 1: spending almost every single day together riding in the same vehicle.
37:00
Speaker 1: Ray was also previously a DJ and a close friend
37:03
Speaker 1: off camera of Jimmy Savill. They even shared a flat
37:05
Speaker 1: together in the nineteen sixties and were reportedly together all
37:09
Speaker 1: the time after they met when Ray won Jimmy's singing
37:12
Speaker 1: contest at the Palace Theater in Manchester. But investigators discovered
37:16
Speaker 1: graffiti dating back to the nineteen sixties and seventies behind
37:20
Speaker 1: the wallpaper of Ray's former apartment. The names, telephone numbers,
37:24
Speaker 1: and other information confirmed the testimony given by the victims
37:28
Speaker 1: at his trial and contradicted the fact that Ray claimed
37:31
Speaker 1: to have never known any of the victims. On December fourteenth,
37:34
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, Ray was sentenced to twenty five years in prison.
37:37
Speaker 1: A lawyer of one hundred and sixty nine of Jimmy
37:40
Speaker 1: Savill's victims claimed that Ray's conviction represented quote the closest
37:44
Speaker 1: the victims of Jimmy Savell will get to a conviction
37:47
Speaker 1: against their attacker end quote. Ray died in prison on
37:50
Speaker 1: May fifth, twenty twenty one. Speaking of drivers, though, one
37:54
Speaker 1: of Jimmy Salvill's victims, a woman named Georgina Martin, stated
37:57
Speaker 1: that she was frequently driven to his home by several
38:01
Speaker 1: different drivers, one of which she says she was pimped
38:03
Speaker 1: out to. There are so many victim accounts and behaviors
38:06
Speaker 1: that lead to a predator ring, but the BBC has
38:09
Speaker 1: refused to ever admit to it to this day. They
38:12
Speaker 1: won't admit that there was organized It's happening behind the
38:16
Speaker 1: scenes at the BBC. They just refuse to admit to it.
38:19
Speaker 1: Is that because they're technically a government agency and there's
38:22
Speaker 1: still a cover up going on. No way they would
38:25
Speaker 1: never do that, wouldn't they. So as you can see here,
38:28
Speaker 1: Jimmy Saville with the BBC was running this absolutely massive
38:33
Speaker 1: predator ring. And these are just the people that we know.
38:35
Speaker 1: These are the famous names. We're not even getting into
38:39
Speaker 1: the everyday people, the royal people, the elite people in
38:44
Speaker 1: you know, English society, the businessman, the rich, those who
38:49
Speaker 1: also benefited from this mechanized system of victimization that we
38:54
Speaker 1: just don't know about. You know, when you have these parties,
38:57
Speaker 1: in these events, you're never going to get a full
38:59
Speaker 1: roster of who all was there, who paid to be there,
39:02
Speaker 1: and who wanted to be there, whose influence earned them
39:05
Speaker 1: a position in that room. But as with every predator ring,
39:08
Speaker 1: there are a number of suspicious deaths connected to this
39:12
Speaker 1: whole thing, and we have to get into this. One
39:15
Speaker 1: of the most troubling deaths that has ever haunted England
39:18
Speaker 1: is that of Jill Dando. Jill was known all across England,
39:22
Speaker 1: all across the UK. Really, she was a household name
39:25
Speaker 1: and a very recognizable figure. She hosted crime Watch. She
39:28
Speaker 1: was an incredibly popular program, you know, dedicated to crimes
39:32
Speaker 1: solved and unsolved. But in nineteen ninety nine, Jill Dando
39:36
Speaker 1: was that close range outside of her home in Fulham, London,
39:41
Speaker 1: a local man named Barry George was eventually convicted and
39:44
Speaker 1: imprisoned for the murder, but after eight years in prison,
39:47
Speaker 1: he was acquitted after a retrial. To this day, no
39:51
Speaker 1: other suspect has been charged with Jill Dando's and the
39:54
Speaker 1: case officially remains unsolved. At the time of Jill Dando's death,
39:58
Speaker 1: the trials of Gary gl and Chris Denning were underway. Additionally,
40:03
Speaker 1: a former friend and colleague of Jill's from the BBC
40:06
Speaker 1: claimed that Jill had tried to get the BBC bosses
40:09
Speaker 1: to investigate an alleged predator ring that existed within their
40:13
Speaker 1: corporation that she had gathered evidence on. She had handed
40:16
Speaker 1: over her files, all the data she had gathered, all
40:19
Speaker 1: the incriminating materials that she had meticulously researched and collected,
40:23
Speaker 1: and according to the theory, this prompted a revenge attack,
40:27
Speaker 1: but apparently nobody wanted to hear about it. None of
40:29
Speaker 1: the executives that the BBC wanted to give Jill the
40:32
Speaker 1: time of day. They certainly didn't want to see her
40:34
Speaker 1: evidence that she had collected against their organization, and it
40:37
Speaker 1: just went nowhere. Jill claimed that her investigation had led
40:41
Speaker 1: her to believe that Big name stars and BBC staff
40:44
Speaker 1: members were all involved in a predator ring. Keep in
40:47
Speaker 1: mind this was in the nineteen nineties. Jimmy Savell's death
40:51
Speaker 1: wasn't until the twenty tens when the floodgates opened about
40:54
Speaker 1: the BBC, and sadly, nothing ever came of Jill's investigation.
40:58
Speaker 1: To this day, we don't know exactly what she found,
41:01
Speaker 1: what she had uncovered, and what she was planning on exposing.
41:04
Speaker 1: And as you know, she was murdered at the young
41:06
Speaker 1: age of thirty seven. We don't know what happened to
41:08
Speaker 1: her files, and they probably were destroyed by this point.
41:12
Speaker 1: Who were these big name stars that Jill was talking
41:14
Speaker 1: about that she had uncovered connections between? Did Jill know
41:17
Speaker 1: too much? So much so that a lot of people
41:20
Speaker 1: wanted her dead? Well? Jill was got at close range
41:23
Speaker 1: with a single bullet to the head, indicating that this
41:26
Speaker 1: may have been the work of a hit man. After all,
41:29
Speaker 1: it would be really risky for someone within the BBC
41:32
Speaker 1: to actually commit the crime themselves, so hiring a hit
41:35
Speaker 1: man with no connection to Jill whatsoever is a very
41:38
Speaker 1: reasonable explanation. There are a lot of different theories as
41:41
Speaker 1: to who may have killed Jill Dando or why. But
41:44
Speaker 1: the existence of her secret investigation into the BBC predator
41:48
Speaker 1: ring that no one wanted to learn about or help
41:50
Speaker 1: expose is incredibly telling. It's like going to your boss
41:54
Speaker 1: and saying, hey, there are huge things going on at
41:57
Speaker 1: our company, and I have the proof that all these
42:00
Speaker 1: people are committing all these crimes, that all these people
42:03
Speaker 1: knew about these crimes and said nothing, and I would
42:05
Speaker 1: like to release this information so that we get as
42:07
Speaker 1: much bad publicity as possible. Obviously they're not going to
42:11
Speaker 1: want to do anything with that. If they had some courage,
42:13
Speaker 1: they would, but didn't they take it a step further
42:15
Speaker 1: and have Jill Dando. We still don't know. I know
42:19
Speaker 1: where I sit on that issue. I think that that's
42:21
Speaker 1: the most likely explanation as to what happened to her,
42:24
Speaker 1: But to each their own. There's also the mysterious death
42:27
Speaker 1: of David Smith. David Smith was a former driver for
42:30
Speaker 1: Jimmy Saville and other BBC celebrities, and he was also
42:34
Speaker 1: charged during Operation Yu Tree for a twelve year old
42:37
Speaker 1: boy in nineteen eighty four. According to authorities, David had
42:40
Speaker 1: taken the victim to visit the BBC studios in London
42:43
Speaker 1: and he had him there amongst other places. Authorities also
42:48
Speaker 1: discovered that David had previously been in trouble as well.
42:51
Speaker 1: In nineteen sixty six, he had twenty two convictions for
42:56
Speaker 1: against young boys. David Smith had previously been a paid
43:00
Speaker 1: driver for the private chauffeur company used by the Australian
43:03
Speaker 1: High Commission, who employed a number of convicted predators. He
43:08
Speaker 1: and other drivers from this company would pick up young
43:11
Speaker 1: care home boys and deliver them to organized predator in Barnes,
43:16
Speaker 1: Pimlico and Kensington. The BBC also acted strange when David
43:20
Speaker 1: Smith was exposed. They publicly stated that they never found
43:24
Speaker 1: any record of David Smith being employed by or working
43:28
Speaker 1: for the BBC. But this was because the BBC hired
43:32
Speaker 1: him through a private company off the books and used
43:35
Speaker 1: this technical piece of information to make everyone believe he
43:39
Speaker 1: had no association with them. So they did actually employed
43:43
Speaker 1: David Smith, just through another company, so they weren't directly
43:47
Speaker 1: hiring him. He wasn't on the payroll, but he was
43:50
Speaker 1: still being paid with BBC money, working for BBC Stars,
43:54
Speaker 1: going to BBC sets and buildings. So why did they
43:58
Speaker 1: try so hard initially to disc stint themselves like that.
44:01
Speaker 1: Why woun't they just hire a regular driver with no
44:03
Speaker 1: previous convictions. Well, a month before David Smith was arrested,
44:07
Speaker 1: the head of employee tax at the BBC admitted that
44:11
Speaker 1: approximately one thousand, five hundred workers had been hired on
44:14
Speaker 1: a freelance off the books basis, which allowed them to
44:18
Speaker 1: cut some expenses. So who are all these people? They
44:21
Speaker 1: had one thousand, five hundred employees that, yes, they actually
44:25
Speaker 1: technically employed, like they worked at BBC studios and for
44:29
Speaker 1: BBC presenters and celebrities, and yet they weren't officially on
44:32
Speaker 1: the BBC payroll. What's up with the secrecy there? Why
44:35
Speaker 1: didn't they want anybody knowing who these employees were. Well,
44:38
Speaker 1: two victims waived their anonymity in an effort to give
44:41
Speaker 1: hope to others. Their names were Jason Little and his
44:44
Speaker 1: friend Lee Sullivan. Both accused David Smith of them when
44:49
Speaker 1: they were teenagers, and they accused the BBC of covering
44:52
Speaker 1: it up. Jason and Lee claimed that they had been
44:54
Speaker 1: taken to parties by David Smith and given drugs so
44:57
Speaker 1: that they could be multiple men. When David Smith didn't
45:02
Speaker 1: show up for his trial in twenty thirteen, the police
45:04
Speaker 1: went to his home, but when they creaked open the
45:07
Speaker 1: old wooden door, what they found was disturbing. David Smith
45:10
Speaker 1: was dead, dead before he could expose anything about his
45:13
Speaker 1: previous employer, Jimmy Savile, these parties, or any incriminating information
45:19
Speaker 1: at all. The coroner ruled David Smith's death as a
45:22
Speaker 1: self unliving of a combination of Immediately, people were suspicious
45:29
Speaker 1: of the timing of David's death, literally in the middle
45:32
Speaker 1: of his trial. It's hard to accept that David Smith
45:34
Speaker 1: would unlive himself for the shame of being a predator,
45:38
Speaker 1: because he had already been living with that for decades.
45:41
Speaker 1: Why would he decide to unalive himself now? Murder cover
45:44
Speaker 1: ups made to look like self unlivings are not uncommon,
45:48
Speaker 1: as you already know. And there's so much more here.
45:51
Speaker 1: The BBC was one hundred percent connected. I mean, all
45:54
Speaker 1: these predators and all these players were one hundred percent
45:57
Speaker 1: connected to each other. But just like all the other
46:00
Speaker 1: elements in these stories, there's so much unknown. You hear
46:03
Speaker 1: mentioned from all these victims. I've read through so many
46:06
Speaker 1: testimonies of victims saying that they were taken to these parties.
46:09
Speaker 1: Once again, with well known individuals, powerful people, you know, politicians.
46:14
Speaker 1: Who was hosting these parties, who was putting these parties on?
46:17
Speaker 1: Who was organizing these parties? Was it Jimmy Savil himself.
46:21
Speaker 1: I think he played a part in it, but I
46:23
Speaker 1: don't know. I think that there's just something deeper here
46:25
Speaker 1: that has yet to be dug up and forced into
46:28
Speaker 1: the sunlight. It's really bizarre stuff. And if your workplace
46:32
Speaker 1: is infiltrated by as many child predators as the BBC was,
46:36
Speaker 1: you know, from the nineteen late nineteen fifties to the
46:39
Speaker 1: twenty tens, you have a serious problem there. There is
46:43
Speaker 1: something like a magnet to metal pulling these sigos in
46:47
Speaker 1: to come work there. Maybe it's because they knew the
46:50
Speaker 1: right guy and they told them, you know, you come
46:52
Speaker 1: work here, you can get away with almost anything. We
46:54
Speaker 1: know the places, we know the areas to get access.
46:57
Speaker 1: We have the access, so come on in. And they
47:00
Speaker 1: always end up being these children's presenters, Jimmy Saville with
47:03
Speaker 1: Jim Will Fix It, Rolf Harris. For some reason, it's
47:06
Speaker 1: these people that project themselves to be loving, caring, sweet
47:09
Speaker 1: on the outside, whether they're a church pastor or a teacher,
47:13
Speaker 1: when you find out later on that they were doing
47:15
Speaker 1: all of that just to get into close proximity with
47:18
Speaker 1: young children. And there are more deaths too. I mean,
47:21
Speaker 1: Jill Dando and David Smith are very intriguing, but there
47:24
Speaker 1: are also like unsolved murders and bodies that haven't been found,
47:28
Speaker 1: and other whistleblower type individuals that you know, talked about
47:31
Speaker 1: stuff like this and they disappeared. If you want me
47:33
Speaker 1: to make another episode about all that stuff, I can too,
47:36
Speaker 1: maybe in a part too. But the question remains, well,
47:39
Speaker 1: we ever know the entire story behind the BBC predator
47:43
Speaker 1: ring and Jimmy Saville. Well, probably not, given the constant
47:47
Speaker 1: cover up stories and denials, but the information we do
47:50
Speaker 1: have definitely leads me to believe that something dark was
47:53
Speaker 1: happening much further beyond just the simple of Jimmy Saville.
47:58
Speaker 1: He did not act alone. I'm certain that there was
48:01
Speaker 1: a link between Jimmy Savill and many other predators, not
48:04
Speaker 1: just in the UK, but all over the world. I mean,
48:06
Speaker 1: imagine the access to Jimmy Saville had to all these
48:09
Speaker 1: children and all these institutions. He prayed on, sick children
48:12
Speaker 1: in hospitals, he prayed on mentally ill kids in mental hospitals.
48:17
Speaker 1: He prayed on children that were fans of his that
48:20
Speaker 1: watched his show, and Jimmy Saville had the goddamn keys
48:23
Speaker 1: to the Kingdom. He literally could walk anywhere in those
48:26
Speaker 1: hospitals at any time, and no one really questioned him. Oh,
48:29
Speaker 1: that's just Jimmy. He's heading down to the girl's ward
48:32
Speaker 1: late at night just to stay hi and cheer everybody up. Sickeningly,
48:36
Speaker 1: we now know that that's not what he was doing.
48:37
Speaker 1: And a disturbing detail actually is that Jimmy Savill himself
48:41
Speaker 1: somehow got himself into the morgue. I don't know which
48:44
Speaker 1: hospital was at, but Jimmy Savill was actually playing around
48:47
Speaker 1: with dead bodies. He has taken photos of himself with
48:50
Speaker 1: dead bodies. I'm sure. I mean, there's no doubt in
48:53
Speaker 1: my mind personally, I believe that Jimmy Savill was those
48:57
Speaker 1: dead bodies. But he was taking pictures with them, posing them,
49:01
Speaker 1: messing around with them. I mean, only God really knows
49:04
Speaker 1: the depths of the depravity of Jimmy Savell himself. I mean,
49:08
Speaker 1: he could have a whole damn episode, even excluding the
49:10
Speaker 1: BBC Predator ring stuff. The guy was truly as sick
49:14
Speaker 1: of a human being as can possibly exist. I mean,
49:17
Speaker 1: there's really almost nothing this guy didn't do. And you know,
49:20
Speaker 1: there's allegations that there were children that died connected to Savill,
49:23
Speaker 1: kids that went missing. Those are all things that aren't
49:25
Speaker 1: necessarily a part of this story, but it's out there.
49:29
Speaker 1: Just look at the footage of Jimmy Savill's old abandoned houses,
49:32
Speaker 1: like the one in Scotland. That's so goddamn creepy to
49:35
Speaker 1: imagine those kids being taken out there. And who knows
49:38
Speaker 1: how far all these people went. I mean, you guys,
49:40
Speaker 1: remember we did a elm guesthouse video a few months
49:44
Speaker 1: back talking about another elite predator ring that was functioning
49:48
Speaker 1: in London, England at the same time that this entire
49:51
Speaker 1: thing was developing and building. And there are links between
49:53
Speaker 1: that obviously and this and this, and that also should
49:57
Speaker 1: be noted that David Smith, the guy who was found
50:00
Speaker 1: dead before his trial, he had worked for the same
50:02
Speaker 1: company as Sidney Cook, another serial predator and child that
50:07
Speaker 1: was functioning in England and hosting these parties for elite
50:10
Speaker 1: members of society that could pay to play. It's just
50:14
Speaker 1: it's very, very very obvious that Jimmy Savell did not
50:17
Speaker 1: act alone, and yet they still won't acknowledge that he didn't.
50:21
Speaker 1: The BBC narrative to this day, really, and you know,
50:24
Speaker 1: in a lot of pop culture is that Jimmy Saville
50:26
Speaker 1: was this lone wolf. But you pull back to curtain
50:29
Speaker 1: and no lone wolf can exist without a wolf pack
50:32
Speaker 1: behind them, and these people would just filled the void
50:34
Speaker 1: in the darkness, and they were just waiting for those
50:36
Speaker 1: perfect moments to strike. It's sad that Jimmy Saville obviously
50:40
Speaker 1: couldn't have been brought to justice before he died, but
50:43
Speaker 1: I personally hope that his legacy will now be tarnished
50:47
Speaker 1: forever and all these people, Think of all the people
50:49
Speaker 1: that got away with these crimes. Think of the people
50:51
Speaker 1: that were at these parties that played a part in
50:53
Speaker 1: the victimization of these victims, that will never be held
50:56
Speaker 1: accountable for what they've done and what they did. That
50:59
Speaker 1: should disturb the amount of people that walk all the
51:02
Speaker 1: time from charges like this. It's infuriating and the more
51:06
Speaker 1: you know, that's the whole point of the show is
51:08
Speaker 1: to teach people that these things do happen, and we
51:11
Speaker 1: need to be more vigilant, believe survivors and pressure authorities
51:15
Speaker 1: to actually look into these things so that they can
51:17
Speaker 1: They're never going to stop happening, but we can stop
51:19
Speaker 1: them sooner and save more children. Anyways, y'all, if you've
51:22
Speaker 1: enjoyed today's episode, please leave me a comment and like
51:25
Speaker 1: the video. If you're watching on YouTube, if you're listening
51:28
Speaker 1: to the show uncensored, please leave me a five star review.
51:32
Speaker 1: Whether it's on Apple Podcasts or Spotify or wherever you're listening.
51:36
Speaker 1: Thank you to everybody for tuning in. I know that
51:38
Speaker 1: this is very dark and heavy subject matter, but this
51:41
Speaker 1: is stuff that needs to be brought up and needs
51:44
Speaker 1: to be talked about. I'm so happy to have everybody here,
51:47
Speaker 1: and yeah, everybody, as always, stay suspicious, keep that tinfoil
51:51
Speaker 1: hat on, and I'll catch you on the next one.
