Ex-Radio 1 DJ has appeared in court charged with child sex offences as part of a police investigation into a youth disco.
Denning, 75, from London, allegedly abused 11 victims, some as young as eight, between 1969 and 1986.
He is charged with 24 sexual offences, including indecent assault of men and boys and inciting boys under 16 and 14 to commit acts of gross indecency.
The allegations relate to a wider investigation by Surrey Police, named Operation Ravine, into alleged sexual offences connected to the Walton Hop Disco, a teen disco which ran from 1958 until 2001.
Denning appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court via videolink wearing a grey and orange fleece and spoke only to confirm his details.
He gave no indication of a plea when a summary of the charges was read to him.
The former DJ was remanded in custody and ordered to attend Southwark Crown Court on August 11 for a preliminary hearing.
