The BBC stopped an investigation, by Newsnight, into allegations that BBC TV entertainer Sir Jimmy Savile sexually abused a teenage girl at the BBC's Television Centre.
A woman told Newsnight that Savile molested her when she was 14 or 15.
Newsnight found several women who said that Savile groomed and abused teenagers.
Newsnight was told of claims that two other TV celebrities, still alive, sexually abused girls at Television Centre in the 1970s.
The BBC bosses ordered that the investigation be dropped.
Duncroft School
All of the women making the allegations were former pupils of Duncroft Approved School in Staines, Surrey.
Two claimed that Savile gave them money in return for sex.
Savile was a regular visitor to this school. Savile was a regular visitor to a number of institutions such as one on the 'child-abuse island' of Jersey where children were allegedly tortured and murdered.
In 2007, Surrey Police received a complaint from a woman who said she was sexually assaulted by Savile at Duncroft in the 1970s.
The allegation was investigated but no further action was taken.

On 13 January 2011, Lewis McGlynn was found hanged in his room at the family home in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire. (Lewis McGlynn, 8, hanged himself.)
Each of the following cases is different, and there is no suggestion that they are linked:
Suffolk.
Edward Morgan-Gooch is the 12-year-old son of a judge called Christopher Morgan.
On 8 November 2011, it was reported that, on 2 November 2011, Edward had been found hanged at his home, in Wickhambrook, Suffolk, in England.
Edward was a choirboy at St Edmundsbury Cathedral, in Bury St Edmunds.
Edward's mother Julia Gooch, 42, works as a legal executive at a solicitors' firm in Newmarket Suffolk.
The Very Rev Dr Frances Ward, the Dean of St Edmundsbury, described Edward as 'a lovely, happy 12-year-old' and said his death was 'a tragic accident'.
Edward was a pupil at St James Middle School, a Church of England School in Bury St Edmunds.
Paul Elstone, the headteacher, said: 'Edward ... was a lively and cheerful pupil."
A spokeswoman for the East of England Ambulance Service said that, on 2 November, a 999 call was received at 9.33pm to report that a 12-year-old boy was in 'cardiac/respiratory arrest'.
Harry Hucknall.
In the UK, on 19 September 2001, 10 year-old Harry Hucknall was found hanged. (Tragic death of boy, 10 )
He was discovered by his next-door neighbour at his home in Dalton-in-Furness inCumbria.
The school caters for up to 14 children aged six to 12.
Dylan's family were due to apply to regain custody of their son in November 2009.
Dylan's body was spotted by kids playing outside, hanging outside his bedroom window.
Teachers found him still alive, suspended from a large Victorian window.
Dylan was driven to a hospital in Lancaster where died.
His family said he had showed no warning signs of a desire to commit suicide.
Uncle Shaun McDonald told how Dylan had been excitedly looking forward to trips back home to see his dad Peter and mum Sharon at Hallowe'en and Christmas.
Mr McDonald, from Warrington, said: "When Peter went to see him on Sunday, he was laughing and joking.
"They took him out for meals and Dylan was really looking forward to coming back home later this month.
"We've been told he may have had an argument with a teacher, or another pupil on Monday, and he was a bit down on Tuesday.
"But, essentially, why he did this is a mystery."
Knowsley Council, whose care Dylan was in, stated that an enquiry was underway.
Dylan had spent the last three years at the care home.
His uncle said that he had a good relationship with his parents and would see them every fortnight on visits.
William Stanesby
On 2 July 2011, we learn that 12 year old William Lippell Stanesby has been found hanged at the family home in Langton Green, near Tunbridge Wells in Kent in the UK.
William's parents are David Stanesby, 62, a prep school bursar and ex-Royal Navy commander, and Sabrina Lippell, 55, a Royal Navy reservist commander.
Commander Sabrina Lippell receiving her commendation from the Second Sea Lord, Vice Admiral Adrian Johns (A quiet revolution - Sabrina Lippell, Transformation Strategic Communications Advisor, reflects on the transformation of the Royal Navy Fleet.)
William is described as being an 'effervescent character', a talented cricketer, musician and chorister.
He attended the Judd School in Tonbridge, Kent.
The former Metropolitan Police Commissioner Lord Condon lives in Langton Green.
Suffolk is linked to Witch-finder General Matthew Hopkins, charity founder Sue Ryder, author Arthur Ransome, former prime minister Edward Heath, composer Benjamin Britten and the gangster Kray Twins.
A 66-year-old man from Amsterdam will be extradited back to the UK as part of Suffolk Police’s investigation into allegations of child abuse at St George’s School in Finborough in the 1970s and 1980s.
Police have been carrying out investigations into allegations of abuse at Finbrough, and in Norfolk and Sussex under the leadership of Derek Slade who was jailed for abusing children in his care.
"In the 50s, when Savile was running dancehalls in the north, he earned himself a reputation as a hard man.

Critics may say that the UK honours system is, to some extent, a method of rewarding various freemasons, Jews and crooks.

"In two specific cases the alleged abusers were men who had risen up through the care-home system, where they were said to have ruled by terror, to become high-ranking officials of the States of Jersey.
"Both men stand accused of numerous assaults.
"The Sunday Times Magazine knows their identities — half of Jersey knows who they are — but we are forced by law to protect them from public exposure.
"One among many of the two men’s alleged victims is Rickie Tregaskis, who claims to have been subjected to endless assaults and abuses while a teenager in a Jersey care home: being made to lie naked on a mattress every night for two weeks in front of a female member of staff; being made to stand in the dining room while one of the men poured food over his head; repeatedly punched and knocked about by that same man, and once having his nose broken by him.
"At least three of Tregaskis’s peers from the home committed suicide or died young of drug abuse...
"Raymond Duchesne, claimed to have been repeatedly sodomised between the ages of 6 and 10 while he was in care at Haut de la Garenne...
One character "was abusing a boy who was draped over the side of the boat, the abuse so violent that the boy’s head was bobbing in and out of the water while the offence took place...
"One victim claimed to have been shackled in the cellars, and the 2003 builders had described finding shackles...
"A total of 65 children’s teeth had also been found — an extraordinary number, made more extraordinary by the anthropologist who had found them suggesting that some appeared to have been deliberately concealed in the cellars and elsewhere and by further evidence that many had not been shed naturally..."
There is evidence that massive child abuse took place on the island of Jersey.
This child abuse may have links to child abuse worldwide.
There appears to be a massive cover-up.
On 18 February 2009, at the Mail on Sunday, Eileen Fairweather has an article about child abuse on the island of Jersey and about Lenny Harper the brave detective who formerly investigated this abuse:
1. Harper discovered three police employees were using police money to buy computers for private use. Some of these computers stored pornography.
2. Three detectives sold intelligence to women linked to drug dealers in return for sex. Despite film and audio evidence, no prosecution was brought.
3. One detective was secretly filmed being massaged by a lover. The lover then examined police files relating to international terrorism.
This detective also sent texts to another lover, a convicted criminal linked to a drugs gang.
4. Police accepted favours from a local businessman.
According to Harper: 'Some 16 to 20 officers admitted to me that they were being paid, in kind or otherwise.' This is ten per cent of the force.
'A file was submitted to the Attorney General seeking the prosecution of the businessman and a key officer for bribery and corruption. No case was brought.'
5. Harper refers to Jersey's culture of 'perks'.
'We prosecuted abusers at one school. A senior teacher told us, in all seriousness, that the children were abused only as some sort of reward for all the hard work he had put into them, like it was a teacher's perk.'
6. The former Jersey children's home at the centre of child abuse reports is called Haut de la Garenne.
In 2006, the commanding officer of the Jersey sea cadets was arrested in connection with child pornography offences.
Allegations against sea cadet volunteers went back years.
'Some of the victims were children from Haut de la Garenne, taken sailing for a treat. The victims described being taken into international waters, where guests were invited to abuse them.
'The allegations hadn't been investigated properly. Two senior police officers had put pressure on junior detectives not to interview the perpetrators, and were implicated in the disappearance of evidence and putting pressure on victims to retract. These officers were also members of the yachting fraternity.'
7. Harper charged three suspects with serious sexual offences. Nearly a year later, none has been tried.
"Pakistan... Its elite is made up of 500 ... big land owning families who acquired their position during British colonial rule.
"Their money and wealth is mainly in Swiss bank accounts, or London, or NY.
"Their children are sent abroad to these countries living exclusive jet set lives that are completely disconnected to ordinary Pakistanis. Indeed an inordinate amount of their time is spent abroad.
"There are in addition 30 'commercial' families who owe their wealth not to land but commerce and industry. They too invest their money in Switzerland, London and NY.
"Their children are sent abroad to these countries living exclusive jet set lives that are completely disconnected to ordinary Pakistanis. Indeed an inordinate amount of their time is spent abroad.
"Conducting business in Pakistan is mightily peculiar as with much else, and one must have certain gangster characteristics in order to make it to the big league of business in Pakistan..."
Lenny Harper is the brave former police chief who was investigating child abuse and child murder on the island of Jersey.
This child abuse has been linked to powerful child abuse rings worldwide.
Top people on Jersey were alleged to be involved in horrific crimes.
Now the authorities on Jersey have put Lenny Harper under criminal investigation.
Harper
Lenny Harper, who recently retired from the police and who lives in Scotland, has been called back to Jersey for a court hearing
Harper refused because he fears arrest as a "scapegoat".
Harper has been accused of keeping vital information from the police team that replaced him.
He is also alleged to have breached data protection and official secrets laws by leaking information about the investigation to the media.
On 13 November 2008, Harper received a letter from Jersey attorney-general William Bailhache ordering him to court on 28 January 2009.
Harper denies withholding evidence.
He said: "I have been ordered to appear in Jersey at the Royal Court to give evidence and provide notebooks.
"They also want to see a farewell card which my former staff signed which they say contains evidence.
"The order is not enforceable in the United Kingdom.
"I have no evidence whatsoever to give or documents which the Jersey authorities do not have. They have spent many thousands of pounds trying to implicate me in Official Secrets Act and data protection offences on no evidence.
"I am being told certain officials in Jersey are falsely briefing against me and I would need to be stupid to expose myself to these people."
Harper is prepared to answer the questions in a British court but not in a Jersey court.
He said: "They are using me as a scapegoat so they can drop all the abuse charges.
"Nothing should detract from the fact that there remain serious, credible allegations about the abuse of children in care in Jersey and these must be investigated."
Graham Power, Jersey's chief of police, did not please the top people on Jersey. He was suspended and is being investigated.
Wathelet - allegations of child abuse
In 1992, Belgian Justice Minister Melchior Wathelet released Marc Dutroux on parole.
Dutroux had served slightly more than three years of a 13 year sentence for raping young girls.
Dutroux was later convicted of having kidnapped, tortured and sexually abused six girls during 1995 and 1996, ranging in age from 8 to 19, two of whom he murdered. - Melchior Wathelet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"According to a police document from the Dutroux enquiry, obtained by The Sprout, serious allegations about Wathelet’s involvement in paedophilia came to light.
"In these documents, a police source and senior psychotherapist informed a colleague of a session he had been having with a client. The client disclosed the details of events in Verviers (where Wathelet was Mayor) during 1992. He spoke of orgies that had been taking place in a country house where two children had been involved.
"These children, between 8 and 10 years old, had come from a children’s home, with the complicity of the director of the home. The 'party', it is alleged in the police documents, was organised partly by Wathelet. The client reported his involvement in the parties to the children’s welfare office in Verviers and to the local police. In return he received threats from both organisations and from other parties...
"This case was never investigated; as the police report confirms: 'the 2 dossiers on the child welfare services have disappeared'.
"Three years after this report, Wathelet became Belgium’s Minister for Defence in June 1995 but was rapidly nominated to the post of Belgium’s representative at the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg, where he arrived on the 2nd September."
Lenny Harper, who was the senior detective in the Jersey child murder investigation, found the remains of five children in a former boys’ home on the island of Jersey (UK).
A memorandum from Lenny Harper claims that the investigation has been hampered by prosecutors in Jersey.
According to Harper, this is making the victims lose faith in the justice system; and it is making it harder to get witnesses to come forward because of fears that alleged perpetrators will not be put on trial.
Mr Harper claims that the island’s Attorney-General, William Bailhache, and his office are held in 'total contempt' by victims of child abuse after repeatedly failing to bring offenders to justice.
Mr Harper’s memo claims suspects are being freed without charge on apparently spurious grounds.
According to Harper: "This is illustrated by a briefing I have had from the NSPCC counsellor working alongside us. He has received a text message from a victim (which he has shown to me) to say ‘It is a joke. Another two walk away. No wonder no one will come forward’. "
Philip Sinel, lawyer for the Jersey Care Leavers’ Association, told prosecutors that crucial evidence was being withheld because victims did not trust the authorities. "My clients and others know far more than has been given to the police already," Mr Sinel said.
Mr Harper’s report discloses that William Bailhache, the Attorney-General, appointed a prosecution barrister, Simon Thomas, to the police inquiry.
Police claim that Mr Thomas advised them that a 70-year-old man and his wife, 69, believed to have been former foster parents, could be arrested and charged with grave and criminal assault.
The report states that Mr Thomas denied having given such advice.
They were taken into custody on June 24 but at 5pm Mr Thomas told detectives he had revised his view, citing as reasons that the wife was unwell, and that the couple’s children said their parents were 'good people'.
According to Harper, in another child abuse case, the police suffered delays after sending a file to Mr Thomas about Jane and Alan Maguire, who had run a care home. A previous prosecution against the Maguires for assault was dropped for lack of evidence in 1998 by Michael Birt, QC, then the Jersey Attorney-General.
Mr Birt is now the second most powerful judge as Deputy Bailiff.
The Maguires live in France and no extradition has been sought.
Sir Philip Bailhache, Bailiff, is head of Jersey's judiciary. He made a speech saying that no bodies had been found. As chairman of parliament he switched off a microphone when a senator tried to apologise for Jersey’s child abuse. He is the Attorney-General’s brother.
William Bailhache, QC, the Attorney-General, decides prosecutions and is legal adviser to the Jersey Government, in whose care the children had been placed. He was a partner in the law firm that represented alleged victims of Jane and Alan Maguire, who ran a care home. None of the clients received compensation.
Michael Birt, QC, Deputy Bailiff, was the Attorney-General who discontinued prosecution against the Maguires.
BBC news, on 9 August 2008, reminded us of some of the facts of the Jersey case.
Deputy Chief Officer Lenny Harper refers to people who have engaged in a "day by day attack" on the inquiry team and the alleged victims of abuse.
Mr Harper told the Telegraph: "I can quite clearly say that the investigation is being held up. There are people on the island who just don't want us going down the route of this inquiry."
Mr Harper gave details of why he is so convinced that someone deliberately concealed the bones and teeth of five children, perhaps after murdering them.
Mr Harper says that because some of the 100 bone fragments had been cut, and because the 65 milk teeth found at the home had roots on them, meaning they did not come out naturally, children were either murdered or their bodies were illegally concealed.
Police have 80 names of people suspected of physical and sexual abuse at Haut de la Garenne.
Harper said: "We are walking through treacle at the moment. One file has been with the Attorney General's office since April 29 and it's still showing no signs of moving at the moment.
Harper said of the bones: "They had been taken from one part of the building to another and put on top of the hard, compact, undisturbed original floor of the cellars. They had been spread about and covered with a thin layer of topsoil. Why would someone do that unless there was a deliberate attempt to conceal them?"
Mr Harper said tests on soot found with the bones showed they had been burned in a furnace in another part of the building, while archaeological evidence suggested they had been concealed in the 1960s or 70s.
Birmingham, UK.
In the UK, it has been alleged that dangerous child abusers held key positions in certain local government authorities, such as Islington in London.
It has been alleged that these dangerous child abusers had links to child abuse on the island of Jersey and beyond.
1. Member of Parliament John Hemming discovered that Children were illegally placed in care on Jersey by Birmingham social services.
The whereabouts of at least one of these children remains unknown.
2. John Hemming, believes children from other parts of the UK were taken to Jersey.
3. Hemming says: 'The Government has refused to order councils to check properly because it does not want to open a can of worms, on the links between abusers in England and Jersey.'
4. UK Schools Minister Kevin Brennan has told Parliament that children from the UK cannot be placed in care in Jersey without a court order.
Yet Birmingham children were sent to Jersey without such orders.
5. Hemming has asked English councils (local governments) to check their records but 'Most seem only to have done cursory checks, just checking recent electronic files, or asking around the office.'
Some councils, including Islington, have refused to check their records.
6.In Islington in North London a child sex network infiltrated 12 children's homes, while Margaret Hodge (friend of Tony Blair) was council leader.
Key staff, The Mail on Sunday revealed, were from Jersey or had strong Channel Islands connections.
Liz Davies, a former Islington senior social worker, said:
'It is becoming clear that children at Haut de la Garenne (on Jersey) were sent on holiday to children's homes in England which were also notorious for abuse, while the children in the English homes they went to were sent to Haut de la Garenne. They literally swapped beds...
'I am perturbed that police in Britain have not written to all local authorities on the mainland to demand they check which children they sent to Jersey.'

Jason Swift
In 1985, 14-year-old Jason Swift was killed by a child-abuse gang.
Sidney Cooke, Leslie Bailey, Robert Oliver, and Lennie Smith, were imprisoned in 1989 for the manslaughter of Jason Swift.
Cooke and his gang had sexually tortured and prostituted a number of boys.
The gang is believed to have killed at least nine children.[2]
Cooke was sentenced to 19 years in prison.
In 1998, Cooke was let out of prison eight years early.
There have been allegations that very powerful peoplehave been involved in a child-abuse ring connected to Islington children's homes. ( Jersey child abuse link to Islington, London)
In 1982 Margaret Hodge (nee Oppenheimer) became Islington council leader.
She became a close friend of Tony Blair, who lived in Islington, a few doors away from Hodge.
In February 1990 Liz Davies and David Cofie, senior social workers, discovered evidence of sex abuse of children and reported it to a residents' meeting attended by Mrs Hodge.
In May 1990 Mr Cofie and Ms Davies were told by Lyn Cusack, assistant director of social services, to stop interviewing children about the abuse claims.
On 1 May 1997 Tony Blair moved from Islington to Downing Street.
Sarah Benford, 14, disappeared from Welford House children's home in Northampton in April 2000.
She is still missing.
The UK's Police National Missing Persons Bureau has 1,418 "open cases" of missing children.
According to Police figures more than 100 children who should be in care have been missing for at least four years.
Many children who go missing are not reported to the police.
Member of parliament Helen Southworth says: "All figures on children missing from anywhere are estimates because, astonishingly, there is no requirement for data to be recorded or collected nationally."
Almost 1,000 children went missing from UK residential and foster care in 2007.
The number that went missing from care increased from 570 in 1997 to 950 in 2007.

1. In May 2008, Jersey police charged Michael Aubin, 45, with alleged offences relating to the former Haut de la Garenne children's home in Jersey.
Mr Aubin, who was born in Jersey but now lives in Southampton, was arrested in the UK by Jersey officers.
He has been charged with one count of sodomy against a male child and three counts of indecent assault against two other male children.
All of the alleged offences took place between 1977 and 1980, police said.The investigators added further charges may follow
2. English solicitors Dyer Burdett & Co (DBC) have set up a legal team to advise former residents of the Haut de la Garenne children's home on Jersey.
DBC is already representing 18 people who were allegedly physically and sexually abused whilst in the care of Portsmouth Corporation during the 1950s and 60s.
Reg said he was taken into care at the home in 1956, aged eight, and stayed there for three years.
A spokeswoman for Hampshire Police said: 'We have no plans to dig up any sites in Portsmouth and continue to hold the position that there are no links between allegations made in reference to the Children's Cottage Homes in Cosham and the ongoing investigation in Jersey.'
Les Cummings, 63, is campaigning for an apology from Portsmouth City Council for the abuse he claims to have at the hands of his foster father and at the Children's Cottage Homes.
A total of 21 men and women told detectives they suffered physical and sexual abuse as children at Children's Cottage Homes.
A 78-year-old woman from Devon was arrested on suspicion of indecent assault but when police passed the file to Crown Prosecution Service lawyers they decided there was not enough evidence to charge her.
Les Cummings went to police to ask them to look again at their earlier investigation into the claims of 21 men and women.
The Crown Prosecution Service examined allegations against the centre but decided not to prosecute.
Both Reg and Les claim that a number of children were taken from their dormitories during the night and disappeared.

"The names of the alleged members of the ring have been given by witnesses in public sessions of the North Wales Child Abuse Tribunal, but they have been suppressed by the tribunal's chairman, Sir Ronald Waterhouse QC, who has threatened the media with High Court proceedings if they print them.
"The Guardian today publishes for the first time detailed evidence about the alleged ring, which is said to have been based in Wrexham, and to have infiltrated local children's homes over a 20 year period.
"Witnesses claim that members of the ring used their connections with police and social services to conceal their activities. All of the accused have denied the allegations.
"Those named to the tribunal include:
"A man who bears the same surname as a prominent Conservative supporter. Two witnesses have told the tribunal of a rich and powerful man who belonged to the alleged ring.
"The son of an influential peer who admitted to police that he had been having sex with an under-age boy from one of the homes. Despite his admission, he was never prosecuted.
"A powerful public official who has previously been cleared of abuse. Six witnesses have given separate accounts to the tribunal of his alleged rape of young boys. Another has reported him attending parties in Wrexham which were supplied with boys from a children's home.
