’Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story’ is Rowan Deacon latest documentary looking at the relationship between Britain and Jimmy Savile. Speaking to Stig Abell and Chloe Tilley, she said: “The reason we were looking at this is we were trying to explain how Jimmy Savile got away with his crimes. “And as part of that we were looking at a huge amount of archive footage of him on television over a period of 50 years. “And as part of that, talking to people, we came across the letters between him and Prince Charles, which helped give us an understanding of the nature of the friendship that they had, which I don’t really think we fully understood before.“ She added: “Prince Charles trusted and respected Jimmy Savile. “And I think that’s really interesting because I think what we were trying to do is look honestly at our, the British public’s relationship with Jimmy Savile, in order to try and explain how he got away with it.“ Listen to Rowan Deacon’s interview in full on Times Radio. --- Times Radio brings you the latest breaking news, expert analysis and well-informed discussion on the biggest stories of the day. 📻 Listen now - Follow Times Radio on social: 🔵 Facebook 🔵 Twitter 🔵 Instagram Subscribe here:
