Jimmy Savile 'groped Julie Fernandez when she was 14'

A television actress has claimed Jimmy Savile groped her when she appeared on Jim'll Fix It at the age of 14.

Julie Fernandez, who starred in the BBC shows Eldorado and The Office, said Savile's hands "lingered in places they shouldn't" as she sat beside the presenter in her wheelchair.

The 38-year-old and other children from her Hampshire school were on the show after Miss Fernandez wrote to Savile.

Miss Fernandez, of Stilton, Cambridgeshire, describes her visit to the Jim'll Fix It studios.
