There have been no words for the children so sickeningly abused and degraded in the making of the vile pictures and videos.

He has never apologised for his shocking behaviour towards fellow BBC staff and others who he tried to groom.

Disgracefully, Edwards tried to use his wealth and power to shut down the working-class parents who first complained to the BBC that he had paid their vulnerable son thousands of pounds for sexual pictures.

A sickened public will surely agree.
