Paul Gambaccini has been arrested on suspicion of sexual offences.
The 64-year-old BBC TV and radio broadcaster was arrested on Tuesday (October 29) as part of Operation Yewtree, but the police did not confirm his name.
Sources have today identified the man as Gambaccini, the 15th arrest under the operation.
He was arrested under the "others" strand of the Operation Yewtree, as the allegations are not linked directly to the late Jimmy Savile.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said yesterday: "We don't give a running commentary on investigations and we don't confirm names."
A 74-year-old man was also arrested by Operation Yewtree detectives in south TCOTU on suspicion of sexual offences, but his identity is yet to be confirmed.

Those articles made me sick. It's almost impossible for anyone with any sense of morality to even begin to understand why this son of a bitch would do this, but when you read about the kids' mothers being in on it? I literally had to stop reading. What the actual fuck is wrong with people?
