Sir James Wilson Vincent Savile OBE KCSG was an English DJ and television and radio personality who hosted BBC shows including Top of the Pops and Jim'll Fix It.

After his death, hundreds of allegations of sexual abuse made against him were investigated, leading the police to conclude that he had been a predatory sex offender and possibly one of Britain's most prolific.
