Sonia Poulton has spent years investigating how Jimmy Savile operated with impunity at the heart of Britain’s establishment — from the BBC to Downing Street. In this powerful interview, she reveals what she’s discovered about Savile’s extraordinary access to politicians, royals, and celebrities, and why she believes Margaret Thatcher was aware of far more than she ever admitted publicly.

As Sonia explains, Savile’s relationship with Thatcher went beyond simple charity appearances or photo ops. He dined at Chequers, corresponded with her privately, and was awarded a knighthood despite widespread rumours of abuse. How could so many warnings have been ignored? Was Savile protected because of who he knew — or because of what he knew?

In a gripping, no-holds-barred discussion, Sonia and Andrew explore the broader implications of this story:

How Britain’s political and media elite created a culture of protection around predators.

Why Savile’s influence stretched across the BBC, the NHS, and Westminster.

What Sonia uncovered in government correspondence and media archives that suggests Thatcher’s office had concerns — yet still pushed through his honours.

And why the establishment continues to bury uncomfortable truths, even decades after Savile’s crimes were exposed.

This is not just about Savile — it’s about power, complicity, and the corruption of institutions that claimed to protect the public. Sonia Poulton’s revelations raise urgent questions about who else knew, who looked the other way, and whether anything has really changed in Britain’s corridors of power.

If you thought the Savile story was over, think again. This episode will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about one of Britain’s most shocking cover-ups.
