    Savile abused woman at former Exeter hospital

    Grim details of Jimmy Savile's abuse have been revealed in the most comprehensive reports yet into his behaviour. 28 different hospitals, including one in Exeter, have published the results of their inquiries into his assaults.

    Devon Partnership NHS Trust has apologised after a woman was assaulted at Digby Hospital in the city.

    The woman was raped in the entertainer's motorhome in April 1970 - she has said she didn't report the incident as she didn't think anyone would believe her.

    The hospital, which had no connection to Devon Partnership NHS Trust, closed in 1987.
