It was, she now believes, one of the ways he managed to hide his wrongdoing - by hiring people he already wielded power over. Officers went to his home in south Devon and took him to be questioned at a police station, where Gavin was initially surprised at the old mans energy. The report exposed Savile as a prolific sex offender who had preyed on hundreds of boys and girls during his decades long career. The watershed moment in the treatment of victims of non-recent abuse would not come until 13 years later. Not only would there not be a retrial, but the third trial would not take place at all: Mount was again in the clear. This is particularly the case when Fox appears on screen. Another part looked into Saviles time at the BBC, which was led by Dame Janet Smith, who had headed the inquiry into serial killer, Harold Shipman.

Mount, a slim man who was small in stature, left the Army determined to make something of himself and embarked upon a programme of reinvention. I was there for five or six years and nobody came to see me in that time, he says. Time may tell, but documentarians could speed it up.

[116] The attacks included 18 girls and 10 boys under the age of 10,[110] and were mostly against young girls aged under 16.
