The Sun revealed how Savile molested a 17-year-old girl patient after being given keys and a job at the Berkshire psychiatric hospital.

He even had a mobile home on site and ordered teenagers inside, supposedly to clean it.

Our revelations prompted the Department of Health to yesterday announce an investigation into how Savile was appointed to lead a taskforce overseeing management restructuring at Broadmoor. A spokesman said: “In hindsight, he should obviously not have been appointed.”

Police chiefs yesterday revealed Savile’s campaign of underage sex abuse covered at least 60 victims over six decades.

Investigators now believe the Jim’ll Fix It and Top of The Pops host preyed on youngsters from 1959 to 2006, when he would have been 79.

Commander Peter Spindler, head of the Met’s Specialist Crime Investigations, said: “One week on, I have revised my estimate of the number of likely victims to be about 60.

“Once again I want to thank those who have come forward and reassure them, and anyone else who contacts us, they will be listened to.”

Scotland Yard detectives are in contact with 14 other forces investigating Savile’s abuses, with police now pursuing 340 lines of inquiry nationwide.

As the BBC continued to tear itself apart over the scandal, legal experts warned that any TV executives who covered up for Savile could be prosecuted and JAILED for perverting the course of justice.

The BBC could also end up facing a £15million compensation bill after victims called in lawyers.

A Tory MP who worked for the Beeb at the height of Savile’s fame said senior staff “must have known” the star was sexually abusing young girls.
