A woman wept as she told a court how paedophile “predator” Stuart Hall sexually abused her aged 12.
The victim, now in her late 40s, wiped away tears as she said the former broadcaster, now 84, forced his tongue in her mouth, repeating “You’re special” as he raped her.
A year later, she said she awoke with Hall, a family friend, at her bedside molesting her as she lay “rigid and still”, and he told her: “I told you, you are special – and you are.”
The witness told the jury at Preston Crown Court: “I think absolutely it’s wrong. It is someone you have trusted.
“I didn’t want my father to be ashamed of me. I felt incredibly dirty, ashamed and confused and very frightened and I chose to bury it because I didn’t want to appear dirty in front of anybody, but I didn’t want anybody to be disappointed in me, particularly my father.”
Hall, 84, has pleaded not guilty to 20 allegations of rape and indecent assault between 1976 and 1981 against two girls, who knew him as a family friend.
The popular TV celebrity allegedly treated the girls as sexual “playthings” after plying them with alcohol.
The victim, known only as girl B, said she was first attacked by Hall when she was just 12 in the mid-1970s.
She was working at a stables when the TV celebrity turned up unannounced on a motorbike. He took her to a corner of the stables and pushed her up against the wall, she told the jury.
She said: “He pushed his mouth on mine, he forced his tongue between my teeth. He felt my body, particularly my chest. My dungarees were removed.
“He was constantly speaking … telling me I was beautiful and lovely and he managed to get inside my shirt. His hands travelled down … All the time I was being pushed against the wall. I was smaller than him, he had to lift me.”
She said Hall made “guttural” noises as she was raped, which she described as “excruciatingly painful”.
Peter Wright QC, prosecuting, asked: “Did you say anything to him?”
The witness replied: “No. I didn’t say a word. I didn’t fight. I didn’t do anything, actually. I just was there, like a rag doll. I’m sorry.”
Hall was jailed last year after he pleaded guilty to 14 offences of indecent assault against 13 girls, aged nine to 17, at the same court and was jailed for 15 months, subsequently increased to 30 months at the Court of Appeal.
He denies raping the two girls and claims the sex was consensual.
