Actor William Roache has arrived at Preston Crown Court at the start of his trial for sexual offences against five girls.
The 81-year-old soap star was arrested at his home in Wilmslow, Cheshire, in May 2013 and later charged with two counts of raping a 15-year-old girl in east Lancashire in 1967.
A month later he was additionally charged with five indecent assaults involving four girls aged between 12 and 16, allegedly committed in the Manchester area between 1965 and 1968.
