Jimmy Savile was one of the United Kingdom’s most beloved TV personalities, with his charming eccentricity and generous philanthropy activities – or, at least, that’s what he wanted us to believe.

This tragic cautionary documentary examines, through extensive archive footage, the evil within Jimmy and delves into how he managed to fool an entire nation for four decades. Coming to Netflix on 06 April.
