Former BBC Radio 1 DJ Dave Lee Travis has pleaded not guilty to 14 counts of indecent assault and one of sexual assault.


He is accused of carrying out the offences between 1976 and 2007.


The allegations relate to 11 female complainants, aged between 15 and 29 at the time.


The 68-year-old, who is appearing at Southwark Crown Court under his real name - David Patrick Griffin. His trial was previously set for 4 March 2014.


Mr Travis, of Mentmore, Buckinghamshire, was first arrested on suspicion of sexual offences by Operation Yewtree officers in November last year.


The Metropolitan Police investigation was launched in the wake of sexual offence allegations against ex-TV presenter and Radio 1 DJ Jimmy Savile.


The operation has a number of strands. One is looking specifically at the actions of Savile, and the second at allegations of sexual offences against "Savile and others".


Mr Travis's arrest fell within a third strand, relating to allegations against suspects unconnected to the Savile investigation.
