A man in his 80s is being interviewed by detectives investigating child abuse allegations linked to Jimmy Savile.

The man, from Berkshire, attended a south London police station by appointment and is now being interviewed under caution.

The police said he was being interviewed as part of the inquiry that does not directly relate to Savile.
