Newsnight - Steven Messham

Request to British Broadcasting Corporation by Chris Moffett. Annotated by Peter Jones on 10 November 2012.

They have already admitted that they didn't, but they're unlikely to respond to your request. They rarely respond if it's going to embarrass them.

Jimmy Savile Climate Seminar
