Operation Yewtree (2012-ongoing) is the official name of the Metropolitan Police Service's (MPS) investigation into sexual abuse allegations, mainly involving children, against Jimmy Savile and others, either associated in crimes with him or not. The investigation began in October 2012 and quickly became a full criminal investigation.

Yewtree consists of three strands of investigation: "Savile"; "Savile and others"; and "Others."

On October 19th, the MPS reported that more than 400 lines of inquiry had been assessed and over 200 potential victims had been identified. By December 19th, eight people were questioned and the total number of alleged victims grew to 589, of whom 450 were allegedly abused by Savile.
