Max Clifford boasts he's 'ringmaster at sex parties' in unearthed recording

The chilling voice of sexual predator Max Clifford describing how he would groom and exploit young women will be heard for the first time in a new documentary next week.

Over 100 hours of audio cassettes compiled by his biographer Angela Levin have been scoured for evidence of his sick behaviour, and viewers will hear Clifford boast of his exploits persuading girls to have sex in exchange for acting equity cards or wrongly believing they might get a film role in return for spending time with friends of Clifford at sex parties.

On one tape he proudly boasts of using girls at sex parties he organised saying: “It was my party and my circus so I was the ringmaster. We were all of us in this toy shop and we could play with every toy. I controlled it.”

Most sickening of all, he speaks of his alter ego Terry Denton and how he would phone girls posing as this other businessman in the entertainment industry and urge them to do what Clifford wanted to have success, manipulating them into performing sex acts in his London office.

Max says: “Terry Denton I invented 30 years ago. He is a film financier, a record tycoon or whatever.

“He is somebody who is put in touch with the ambitious women. What they don’t realise is, it is me putting on a voice.

“I mean, the things that Terry suggested….’If I was you, I know he gets off on phoning people whilst someone goes in the office and gives him a b*****b. If you were to do that I am sure that would show a bit of imagination’.

“So that is what they do,” Clifford continues, laughing at the cruel trick he played on women.

“Terry has been a very good mate to me for over 30 years.”

Listening back to the interview tapes for a new Channel 4 documentary, writer Levin now realises the scale of what he was saying, which was lost in amongst hours of other boasts about celebrities and sex parties when she wrote the biography in 2006.

Levin says: “That is terrible, oh my god. Why did he want to tell me that?

“It’s a terrible thing to tell me. I never queried him about it because I thought it was so stupid and superficial that I wasn’t the least bit interested.

“Listening to it now, I feel that it was perhaps opening a very dark door in his soul that led to a terrible underground cave where all the evil goes. Hearing it now I think it was a very evil thing. Why would someone do that?”

Clifford was found guilty of eight indecent assaults in 2014 on women and girls as young as 15. But he never apologised and died in prison in December 2017 of natural causes.

The TV documentary lays bare how Max operated in plain sight and was a master manipulator of senior Fleet Street media figures in order to sell his own stories but also ensure he stayed out of the headlines himself as allegations about his manipulation of young women grew.

It also features the stories of some of the survivors of abuse at the hands of Clifford, with one woman telling how she was groomed by him on holiday at the age of 15.

He fabricated a story of stardom for the young girl to her parents and then took advantage of her. It was a tactic he would use again and again, promising jobs or success if the girls trusted him and did exactly as he demanded.

One survivor says: “I think it was power and control and the sex was the cherry on the top.”

Another admits they have never fully recovered after what he did to them.

They say: “I don’t think I did get over it, the more I tried to forget it and I couldn’t forget it, the more angry I became with myself. Why didn’t I fight him off? It took me a long time to forgive myself.”

*Max Clifford: The Fall of a Tabloid King will air on Channel 4 on Monday (1st March) at 9pm
