Savile victim: 'Even now, I don't like being on my own'
A victim of Jimmy Savile has spoken out about the abuse he suffered on the set of children's TV programme Jim'll Fix it.
Kevin Cook, who was nine years old when the attack happened, said Savile took him into a dressing room and abused him.
Describing how he felt during the attack, which happened in 1976, Kevin said he was "crying and a bit hysterical".
Kevin went on to say he still doesn't like being alone in the house because of the attack 40 years ago.
An inquiry into Savile, led by former Judge, Dame Janet Smith, identified 72 victims, including eight who were raped by the former DJ, who died in 2011. The abuse took place between 1959 and 2006.
