DJ and former Pop Idol judge Neil Fox has been charged with nine sex offences, three of which involved children.

As BBC News reports, the nine offences involve six different people - three of whom were adults, and three childen under 16. One of the alleged victims was under 14.

In a statement, Fox's lawyers said he "categorically denies each and every allegation that has been made against him."

The incidents are said to have taken place between 1991 and 1996 and then between 2003 and 2014.

Fox was first arrested on 30 September, after four allegations of sexual assault were made. He was arrested again in December after three further allegations were made.

Fox, who was also known as Dr. Fox and Foxy, was a judge on Pop Idol between 2001 and 2003, and has also presented shows on Capital Radio and Magic 105.4.
