Theroux says Savile didn't seem 'malevolent' at the time
Louis Theroux spoke to Robert Peston about the film he made on Savile in 2000.
Louis Theroux has admitted that with hindsight it is hard not to see Jimmy Savile as a "malevolent figure" but when he made a film about him back in 2000 he "didn't feel that way".
He told Peston on Sunday if Savile had seemed malevolent to people at the time he thinks "he would have been caught a lot sooner".
