Dave Lee Travis
Travis began his broadcasting career on the pirate radio station Radio Caroline in 1965. He moved to BBC Radio 1, where he became one of the station's leading presenters during the 1970s and 1980s. He was a frequent presenter of BBC1 TV series Top of the Pops. Following his resignation from the BBC in 1993, he worked for several British commercial radio stations.
In November 2012, Travis was arrested by officers from Operation Yewtree on suspicion of historical sexual offences, which he denied. In February 2014, he was found not guilty on twelve of the counts, with the jury unable to reach a decision on a further two counts. Travis faced a retrial on the two outstanding counts, with an additional alleged offence from 1995. The retrial began on 5 September 2014. On 23 September, he was found guilty of one count of indecent assault and on 26 September given a three-month prison sentence suspended for two years.
