BBC couple ‘invited boys’ to join in sex

TWO former BBC presenters known as the Richard and Judy of local radio invited teenage boys to join them “one at a time” as they had sex outdoors, a court heard.

A man who claims he was indecently assaulted as a 14-year-old boy by the married couple told a court he recognised them instantly from a photograph after hearing news of their arrest.

The alleged victim, now in his late thirties, told Warwick Crown Court he was “convinced 100 per cent” that a couple he saw having sex against a tree in 1992 were Julie and Tony Wadsworth.

Julie Wadsworth, 60, and her 69-year-old husband deny indecent assault and outraging public decency by having sex in woodland in full view of young boys between 1992 and 1996 in the Atherstone area.

Giving evidence on the second day of the couple’s trial, one of seven alleged victims claimed he was among a group of boys who saw Mrs Wadsworth wearing a “flasher’s mac” and no underwear in a park.

The trial continues.
