We hear from Kat Ward, who was the first person to speak publicly about being abused by Jimmy Savile.

It's almost four years since the crimes committed by Jimmy Savile came to public attention. The first of his victims to speak out publicly was Kat Ward. She met Savile while on holiday in Jersey. He later went on to abuse her. She speaks to Sam about the abuse she suffered, and the subsequent media firestorm and legal battles. Elsewhere we hear about the launch of the first maternity clinic in the UK to specifically offer specialist support to survivors of rape. It's at the Royal London Hospital and will provide specialist gynaecological exams and mental health support after labour. And Ken Barrie - the voice of Postman Pat - has died at the age of 73.
