:00:08. > :00:13.This week, a woman whose testimony helped convict notorious Rotherham
:00:14. > :00:31.child abusers reveals her identity the first time.
:00:32. > :00:36.The child victims of Rotherham who stood up to the abuses, the woman
:00:37. > :00:42.who blew the whistle for years ago takes a brave step of revealing her
:00:43. > :00:47.identity. I am nervous, I am so glad, I am ready to move forward in
:00:48. > :00:52.my life. Also, the top sports coaches who say they would be better
:00:53. > :00:58.off abroad. In my experience, coaching, there is an element where
:00:59. > :01:01.it is expected but not enough. And later, fairies at the bottom of the
:01:02. > :01:06.garden, one of the great photographic hoaxes of the 20th
:01:07. > :01:13.century. They believe this is a genuine photograph? I do. My mother
:01:14. > :01:22.was honest. I think this is absolute proof she saw fairies.
:01:23. > :01:27.Child abuse victims often reluctant to reveal the identities and that is
:01:28. > :01:31.in the case the last four years for the Rotherham child abuse
:01:32. > :01:35.whistle-blower known as Jessica, but the first time she has now taken the
:01:36. > :01:43.brave step of revealing her identity and spoke to Amy.
:01:44. > :01:46.The girl known as Jessica has spoken to hundreds of journalists over
:01:47. > :01:48.the past four years but she s never shown her face.
:01:49. > :01:51.As a victim of sexual crime, she is entitled to lifelong
:01:52. > :01:53.anonymity but she has chosen to speak to me for the
:01:54. > :02:05.My name is Sammy, I ve been known as Jessica for 4 years now,
:02:06. > :02:10.Which I did that because I came forward as a victim who suffered
:02:11. > :02:14.from child abuse as a child and I came forward to try and raise
:02:15. > :02:18.awareness, but of course my main priority was to be safe
:02:19. > :02:29.How does it feel to be known as the real you?
:02:30. > :02:34.I m nervous, it was such a big move to make but I m so glad I m so ready
:02:35. > :02:38.to move forward in my life, I m ready to move in to my next
:02:39. > :02:47.Let s go back to your childhood, what kind of child were you?
:02:48. > :02:58.I was bubbly, confident, I loved to always be active,
:02:59. > :03:01.I loved dancing, I started dancing at the age of 4, that s all I really
:03:02. > :03:05.Sammy met serial child abuser Arshid Hussain
:03:06. > :03:14.He was talking to my friend and he said, do
:03:15. > :03:25.So we got in the car and we went to a flat.
:03:26. > :03:27.He had some friends there and one of his brothers.
:03:28. > :03:30.So I remember sitting in the car and he stroked my face
:03:31. > :03:33.and he said You re not really 16, are you?
:03:34. > :03:35.And I said No, I m 15. And he said No you re not.
:03:36. > :03:39.And I said OK then, I m 14. And then it was, yeah,
:03:40. > :03:48.Pretty much we were boyfriend and girlfriend from then on.
:03:49. > :03:50.Within a few days my parents found out, they weren t happy
:03:51. > :03:54.at all as you can imagine - he was 24, I was 14.
:03:55. > :03:58.As well as my parents knew of his reputation and they knew
:03:59. > :04:01.he was a person that I shouldn t be getting involved with
:04:02. > :04:03.and they contacted police and the police said that
:04:04. > :04:07.as I was consenting to it that there was nothing that they could do
:04:08. > :04:13.So he was a 24 year old man, the police said
:04:14. > :04:15.We can t do anything about this, she s consenting ?
:04:16. > :04:18.Yeah and as well he was extremely well known to the authorities,
:04:19. > :04:21.he was involved in just about every crime you can imagine.
:04:22. > :04:27.I wasn t the first or the last child that he was abusing and he was known
:04:28. > :04:32.Sammy s family were very unhappy about her new relationship.
:04:33. > :04:35.We found out pretty quick to be honest.
:04:36. > :04:41.I don t know whether it was the age gap but she become
:04:42. > :04:49.I was seen on many occasions with him by the police.
:04:50. > :04:54.There were times that I was actually found in bed with him half naked.
:04:55. > :04:59.Nobody really wanted to do much apart from my parents.
:05:00. > :05:05.I was going missing from home and school for days,
:05:06. > :05:08.weeks, sometimes even months at a time.
:05:09. > :05:10.Our relationship broke down really quickly.
:05:11. > :05:15.I saw my mum crying and my dad searching for her.
:05:16. > :05:17.It was just like she was completely brainwashed.
:05:18. > :05:19.There was times when I was having fun.
:05:20. > :05:31.We went to the cinema, went out for meals.
:05:32. > :05:34.It felt like a normal relationship with two adults.
:05:35. > :05:39.It was a few months later that he became
:05:40. > :05:48.He started hitting me and then it was on a daily basis.
:05:49. > :05:53.I knew I needed to get away from him but it was like a drug and I kept
:05:54. > :06:01.The kind of education we d had around paedophiles
:06:02. > :06:14.They were smartly dressed, they had flash cars.
:06:15. > :06:18.My parents put me in care thinking I d be safe but that
:06:19. > :06:29.The authorities said if he met me at the end of the street and had me
:06:30. > :06:35.back by 10 for school, he could have access to me.
:06:36. > :06:38.While in foster care, Sammy gave birth to her son by Arshid Hussain.
:06:39. > :06:43.Many years later, in 2016, Arshid Hussain, now in a wheelchair
:06:44. > :06:46.after a shooting, was finally sentenced to 35 years in prison
:06:47. > :06:49.for abusing many young girls over two decades.
:06:50. > :06:57.Ash is now doing time for what he did to you and many other children.
:06:58. > :07:06.It depends what frame of mind I m in.
:07:07. > :07:11.There s times when I still feel angry at him, there s times
:07:12. > :07:17.when I want to cry and then there s times when I think a part of me
:07:18. > :07:20.will always love him because he gave me my son.
:07:21. > :07:23.That s really difficult isn t it, he s the father of your child
:07:24. > :07:26.and there s always going to be that connection with him?
:07:27. > :07:33.In 2014, Rotherham made headlines all over the world as the scale
:07:34. > :07:36.of abuse that had taken place in the town became clear
:07:37. > :07:42.How did you react when you heard that number ? 1400 children victims
:07:43. > :07:50.I was saying from the beginning that there was a cover-up
:07:51. > :07:58.I kind of felt, in a way, that my name had been cleared
:07:59. > :08:06.Of the amount of men you know were involved in child sexual
:08:07. > :08:07.exploitation in Rotherham, how many of them
:08:08. > :08:16.There s still a long way to go but I think that now it s time
:08:17. > :08:20.We ve seen perpetrators held accountable and
:08:21. > :08:30.But I don t think any of us will be able to move forward ?
:08:31. > :08:32.or move forward as a town, until those professionals
:08:33. > :08:38.How many perpetrators do you think are still walking the streets?
:08:39. > :08:43.And I think unfortunately a lot of those will always remain
:08:44. > :08:50.There s going to be so many people get away with this.
:08:51. > :08:54.That s something that every single person that failed or that
:08:55. > :09:01.committed a crime has to live with for the rest of their life.
:09:02. > :09:03.These people were paid to protect these children,
:09:04. > :09:06.no matter where they were from, what agency they were from.
:09:07. > :09:09.What s the situation in Rotherham at the moment?
:09:10. > :09:19.I d love to be able to stop CSE but we never will.
:09:20. > :09:21.It s about reducing it, making it hard for paedophiles.
:09:22. > :09:23.Do you have any confidence that the authorities are dealing
:09:24. > :09:34.Let s face it, couldn t get any worse.
:09:35. > :09:37.The Operation Clover team have been brilliant with me and I now expect
:09:38. > :09:42.every police officer to reach that standard and it s not happening.
:09:43. > :09:59.The strength she s shown to educate people about this is amazing.
:10:00. > :10:04.How do you feel coming out as Sammy, not as Jessica any more?
:10:05. > :10:19.I feel like I can get on with my life.
:10:20. > :10:29.I think there are positive things to come for me and the rest of the
:10:30. > :10:33.girls. If you have any comments about nights programme all is the
:10:34. > :10:40.real we might like the couple, get in touch on Facebook or Twitter.
:10:41. > :10:42.Coming up, the girls who said they saw fairies at the bottom of the
:10:43. > :10:48.garden. Behind every Olympic medal winner,
:10:49. > :10:50.there s an outstanding coach. But now some top sports coaches
:10:51. > :10:56.in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire fear their work is being undervalued
:10:57. > :10:59.? and they could leave for It s a chilly Tuesday night in
:11:00. > :11:07.Bolton upon Dearne, near Rotherham. Young rugby league
:11:08. > :11:09.players are in training. It s like this at hundreds
:11:10. > :11:26.of sports clubs - as usual, Next minute, you are taking the
:11:27. > :11:27.session. I just enjoy giving something back to the sport that has
:11:28. > :11:30.given me so much. Dearne Valley Bulldogs have 13 teams
:11:31. > :11:32.and nearly 40 volunteer coaches. For most people, this is what sport
:11:33. > :11:43.coaching is all about. There is also volunteer coaching who
:11:44. > :11:46.have a big input in the future stars of this country.
:11:47. > :11:48.But, sometimes, amateur coaching isn t enough.
:11:49. > :11:49.Elite performers need top class coaches.
:11:50. > :11:51.And, in some Olympic sports, despite Lottery funding,
:11:52. > :12:02.there doesn t seem to be enough money to go round.
:12:03. > :12:05.In the Rio Olympics last year, City of Leeds divers Jack Laugher
:12:06. > :12:09.and Chris Mears won Britain s first-ever diving gold.
:12:10. > :12:16.It was a triumph shared with their coach, Adrian Hinchliffe.
:12:17. > :12:22.He has been key to making city of Leeds the top performance Centre in
:12:23. > :12:25.the country but after 24 years, you sleeping.
:12:26. > :12:27.When I broke the story Ady was going, it was clear
:12:28. > :12:32.there was anger and regret from the divers he d coached.
:12:33. > :12:39.He has his reasons for why he's leaving and I think to be honest, he
:12:40. > :12:41.has been forced to leave. I think it's a massive insult to him and his
:12:42. > :12:44.legacy. Ady leaves Leeds for an elite diving
:12:45. > :12:47.coach job in Australia next week. And he s got a farewell message ?
:12:48. > :12:50.he says we don t put enough value on full-time professional rather
:12:51. > :12:59.than amateur, coaches. I think British sport, my experience
:13:00. > :13:03.in British diving, there isn't an where it is expected, but not
:13:04. > :13:07.enough. People outside the sport will be surprised you got a
:13:08. > :13:11.full-time coach, your job is with the council? I know, it's the
:13:12. > :13:16.pick-up to get your head around. Apart from running be developed
:13:17. > :13:20.programme, the development, I have been tasked with managing and the
:13:21. > :13:22.after swimming and synchronised swimming.
:13:23. > :13:24.After his success in Rio, Ady wanted to coach full-time,
:13:25. > :13:29.so he had a meeting with British Diving.
:13:30. > :13:34.Unfortunately we had that meeting, it was just that money hasn't been
:13:35. > :13:40.allocated in other areas, other priorities, that have been prepared,
:13:41. > :13:49.there may be an opportunity, they were very much thinking it would be
:13:50. > :13:54.something they could do. How do you think they are valued by the powers
:13:55. > :13:56.that be? They are not rewarded enough, professional developer isn't
:13:57. > :13:59.considered enough, so I think there is something missing.
:14:00. > :14:02.So how do you encourage top-level professionals in a coaching industry
:14:03. > :14:06.A survey last year found 74 per cent of coaches in all sports
:14:07. > :14:09.across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire are unpaid volunteers.
:14:10. > :14:14.In Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, there are nearly 170,000
:14:15. > :14:26.So is that the end of it? Or with the success in London and real,
:14:27. > :14:34.could others be set to follow? Sheffield-based Jessica Ennis-Hill
:14:35. > :14:36.became one of our most She won Olympic gold in the women s
:14:37. > :14:40.heptathlon in London, followed by a silver in Rio
:14:41. > :14:44.four years later. And her coach Toni Minichiello
:14:45. > :15:00.was with her all the way through. I got the coaching by accident
:15:01. > :15:05.really. I think there is a need at any sport for somebody to do the
:15:06. > :15:10.organising, and so forth, I think its last man standing, so basically
:15:11. > :15:13.I took the plunge and went full and gave up a job in the civil service
:15:14. > :15:18.and said, if you're going to work with people who can achieve at the
:15:19. > :15:22.highest level, if they are going to be training 30 hours a week, you
:15:23. > :15:31.better be around. So at some point you have two turn pro. I think I
:15:32. > :15:38.just need to stay back over and work on this. Was the turning point the
:15:39. > :15:41.Young Jessica Ennis-Hill? Definitely, that's where the
:15:42. > :15:49.opportunity came. I need a few more degrees. 2012, she wins the gold,
:15:50. > :15:55.everybody would think you would be a wanted coach? Planned change, every
:15:56. > :15:59.four years when lottery money is decided upon, it is given to the
:16:00. > :16:03.governing body, they use the money and shape their programme
:16:04. > :16:08.accordingly, after 2012 the changed the shape of their programme and I
:16:09. > :16:10.was surplus to requirements. The whole purpose of the run-throughs is
:16:11. > :16:12.Seppi shape... Since then, Toni has worked
:16:13. > :16:14.as a freelance coach. Following Jess s retirement he s got
:16:15. > :16:23.a group of young athletes. You just keep working, charge the
:16:24. > :16:28.athlete a bit of money but there are a few athletes here, they are at the
:16:29. > :16:32.cusp point whereby, if they put the hours and the time in, maybe they
:16:33. > :16:38.could make that transition to the top flight. You can either help them
:16:39. > :16:42.we can abandon them, what do you do? Have you had offers to work abroad
:16:43. > :16:47.in other countries? I had a couple of discussions. But whatever reason,
:16:48. > :16:52.it's kind of, it's not what I want to do.
:16:53. > :16:54.In Rio, Bryony Page won Great Britain s first-ever Olympic
:16:55. > :17:03.She s based in Sheffield, and I m about to watch her coach
:17:04. > :17:17.As well as working with Bryony, he s a university lecturer,
:17:18. > :17:19.teaching students who want to be coaches themselves.
:17:20. > :17:27.For his students, it s an unexpected bonus.
:17:28. > :17:35.In some sports, coaches get a lot more recognition, like football and
:17:36. > :17:39.rugby. You have coaches like Paul, with the success, gets minimal
:17:40. > :17:44.attention. I'm surprised there aren't coaches full-time. There is
:17:45. > :17:48.not a lot of money within high-performance coaching but at the
:17:49. > :17:53.same point, you could say, surely I should be coaching full-time, as it
:17:54. > :17:54.happens with my situation, I managing to juggle both but it is
:17:55. > :17:57.complex. Since Bryony s success,
:17:58. > :18:00.Paul s had job offers from abroad, and he s about to go to Australia
:18:01. > :18:04.on a three-week working trip. Bryony s hoping he
:18:05. > :18:11.doesn t decide to stay. He has been the backbone to
:18:12. > :18:15.everything, but a lot of effort in and pushed me on and has been
:18:16. > :18:19.through the highs and lows, he's always there for me when I need him.
:18:20. > :18:22.UK Sport told us they highly value coaches and are committed
:18:23. > :18:47.Meanwhile, top coaches are having to make decisions
:18:48. > :18:52.Paul Greaves is back from his trip to Australia.
:18:53. > :19:00.And he s settled on his future ? at least for now.
:19:01. > :19:07.I did think, the weather, the lifestyle, great opportunities over
:19:08. > :19:09.their, they do pay coaches well in Australia, but my roots are here and
:19:10. > :19:20.I love Great Britain so much. Now, once upon a time
:19:21. > :19:22.on the outskirts of Bradford, fairies were seen on the banks
:19:23. > :19:25.of a small beck at Lucy Hester investigates one
:19:26. > :19:30.of the great hoaxes of the 20th century which took place exactly one
:19:31. > :19:38.hundred years ago this year. It s a place where you can
:19:39. > :19:42.imagine magic happening. She got so excited
:19:43. > :19:46.she shouted to Frances, In the dark days of the Great War,
:19:47. > :19:53.a little bit of fairy dust was sprinkled here on the outskirts
:19:54. > :20:02.of industrial Bradford. In the summer of 1917,
:20:03. > :20:05.two young girls claimed to have taken photographs of fairies ?
:20:06. > :20:07.here at the bottom of The legend of the Cottingley
:20:08. > :20:16.fairies was born. It wasn't until the 1980s that one
:20:17. > :20:19.of the girls ? Elsie - by now well into old age -
:20:20. > :20:23.finally admitted how Sticky tape at the back, the fairy,
:20:24. > :20:35.and have managed to limit down. But one of the girls maintained
:20:36. > :20:38.throughout her life that one of the five fairy
:20:39. > :20:40.photographs was real. And her daughter
:20:41. > :20:41.is also in no doubt. Do you believe that this
:20:42. > :20:44.is a genuine photo of fairies? I do, my mother was honest,
:20:45. > :20:47.she always said she saw fairies and I think that this
:20:48. > :20:49.is absolute proof. This is Cottingley ? a small,
:20:50. > :20:57.quiet suburb of Bradford. Frances Griffiths and her mother
:20:58. > :21:00.came to live here in 1917 with her uncle and aunt
:21:01. > :21:02.and her older cousin Elsie. Her father had been sent
:21:03. > :21:05.to fight in the war. After school Frances would often
:21:06. > :21:08.play in the beck which ran along She loved it, she said
:21:09. > :21:29.it was very magical, peaceful. men coming down to the woods hopping
:21:30. > :21:32.across the beck and then But when Frances told her aunt
:21:33. > :21:36.and uncle that she had seen fairies at the bottom of the garden,
:21:37. > :21:39.she got short shrift. So her cousin Elsie hatched a plan
:21:40. > :21:44.to prove the adults wrong. She managed to fake up three fairies
:21:45. > :21:47.and two extra ones all dancing She painted and cut them out,
:21:48. > :21:56.In those days people wore very large hats so had large hat pins,
:21:57. > :22:02.she got the idea if they got one of these hat pins, we stick it
:22:03. > :22:06.on the back of the paper and stick it in the ground, it will look
:22:07. > :22:08.like they're dancing. They had to have hat
:22:09. > :22:12.pins about that length. If it had been later on,
:22:13. > :22:14.we couldn t have done it because they only stayed that long
:22:15. > :22:17.for a while. And so the first two fairy pictures
:22:18. > :22:24.were created in 1917. The first called the Fairy Ring
:22:25. > :22:26.featured Frances with The second had Elsie
:22:27. > :22:33.posing with a paper gnome. But it wasn't until three years
:22:34. > :22:36.later that the photographs caused worldwide headlines,
:22:37. > :22:39.when they came to the attention of the creator of Britain's
:22:40. > :22:46.most famous detective. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
:22:47. > :22:48.got involved, that was Beginning of the agony
:22:49. > :22:56.for my mother as well. It was never meant to get that far,
:22:57. > :23:00.but once they got into it, how In 1920 Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote
:23:01. > :23:04.an article about the Cottingley fairies after they came
:23:05. > :23:06.to the attention of an associate Soon the whole world
:23:07. > :23:12.began to take notice. Conan-Doyle was just one of those
:23:13. > :23:15.people who very sincerely and very honestly believed in something
:23:16. > :23:20.which most people nowadays don't. Particularly in the period
:23:21. > :23:23.after the First World War when there is a lot of interest
:23:24. > :23:29.in spiritualism and a lot of people had lost loved ones,
:23:30. > :23:31.including Conan Doyle, What was it about the images that
:23:32. > :23:34.caused people to think So when the first photographic

:24:51. > :24:55.two brand new cameras for Elsie and Frances to take
:24:56. > :24:58.more fairy photographs. Elsie had prepared two
:24:59. > :25:09.photographs, two fakes. One of them she had promised
:25:10. > :25:12.Gardner a leaping fairy, so she had manufactured one
:25:13. > :25:15.that was flying. An academic called Joe Cooper
:25:16. > :25:17.who lived in Leeds was fascinated by the fairies story and made
:25:18. > :25:21.it his business to get to know Did he approach it thinking it was
:25:22. > :25:29.real or a thinking it was a hoax? But around seven years
:25:30. > :25:48.after he first met Frances and Elsie, Joe Cooper finally
:25:49. > :25:51.discovered the truth. Accounts vary as to
:25:52. > :25:55.how that happened. I believe Frances confessed
:25:56. > :25:58.in Canterbury cathedral I can t imagine what that must have
:25:59. > :26:05.been like for my dad. But Frances told her daughter that
:26:06. > :26:08.Joe had actually read her secret She didn't realise what he was going
:26:09. > :26:15.to do but two weeks later the news broke that the Cottingley story
:26:16. > :26:23.was based on fakes. Joe Cooper subsequently wrote a book
:26:24. > :26:25.about the Cottingley fairies hoax which led to a definitive fall out
:26:26. > :26:28.with Frances and Elsie. But there was one thing
:26:29. > :26:33.on which he and Frances did agree. While both cousins agreed that four
:26:34. > :26:36.of the five pictures were fakes, they told completely different
:26:37. > :26:41.stories about the fifth picture ? Christine Lynch describes to me how
:26:42. > :26:51.she says the fifth and most She pulled out the lens to this
:26:52. > :27:02.distance and set the timing for it then she just clicked it
:27:03. > :27:09.and took the photograph. There is one on the left hand side,
:27:10. > :27:25.almost invisible. It's a wonderful, wonderful
:27:26. > :27:35.photograph. If it was examined with today s
:27:36. > :27:38.modern technology, maybe we d be But Michael Terwey from the media
:27:39. > :27:58.museum thinks there may be a more This looks like it might have been

:28:10. > :28:12.image of fairies, is consistent with what we call double exposure.
:28:13. > :28:14.Do you believe that s a true photograph of a real fairy?
:28:15. > :28:20.And despite the fallout, Joe's family say he believed too.
:28:21. > :28:24.I don t think he had any doubt that it was real.
:28:25. > :28:26.One of his favourite phrases was It s not
