Sir Jimmy Savile organised all-girl 'therapeutic' parties at Broadmoor He went where he wanted and spoke to whoever he wanted to. He spoke to all the patients. He would just walk up and have a chat. He was always there. The Jim'll Fix It star, who had a flat in the grounds, volunteered at the hospital for 20 years before he was made head of a task force to plug a £20 million deficit in 1988. The DJ was considered by the Department of Health as the ideal person to fix the hospital's finances and advise on welfare. The National Association for People Abused in Childhood has received a staggering 2,000 calls offering information since details of Savile's decades preying on youngsters began to emerge. The BBC presenter Jeremy Vine branded Savile "one of the most serious predatory paedophiles in criminal history." Ex-Newsnight anchor Jeremy, 47, who hosts a Radio 2 lunchtime show, told the Sun: "This is a complete and utter nightmare. The fact that a person was using his BBC prestige and maybe even BBC dressing rooms to attack young children I find completely disgusting as a father of two young daughters. I cannot believe it happened for such a sustained period - and on our doorstep. Meanwhile another woman claimed he abused her while she was living at a Salvation Army women's home in Salford because she was unmarried and her family were ashamed of her. Savile had a bedsit a few hundred yards away - and was a regular visitor. One said: "We were vulnerable, the lowest of the low. We were clearly pregnant and very young. We went to see him. He kissed us and tried to grope our breasts. I think we had asked for an autograph and he said we had to give him a kiss. He preyed on our vulnerability. Everyone needs to know how many people he has affected. She reported the incident to Greater Manchester Police on Friday. They are probing complaints about Savile from at least two other women. Ed Miliband last night demanded an independent inquiry into mounting allegations against Savile. The Labour leader said that there needed to be a "broad look" at the "horrific allegations" embroiling Savile, who died last year. The Metropolitan Police is coordinating a national criminal probe after more than 60 victims came forward to claim they had been molested or attacked by the television and radio presenter when they were children. The BBC has also set up two internal investigations. However, in an interview with ITV's Agenda last night, Mr Miliband said: "These are horrific allegations. To do right by the victims, I don't think that the BBC can lead their own inquiry. We need a broad look at the public institutions involved - the BBC, parts of the NHS and Broadmoor. It has got to be independent. His comments were made after the BBC director-general came under mounting pressure to explain why a Newsnight investigation into Savile was shelved after the Culture Secretary said the inquiry was "inappropriately pulled." Maria Miller entered the row about Savile's conduct at the BBC as it emerged that the corporation's head, George Entwistle, will face a public grilling by MPs as early as next week.
