Watkins appeared in magistrates' court in Cardiff Bay yesterday (December 20th) where it was revealed that he is facing six charges relating to sexual offences against two young children, reports BBC.

He faces one charge of conspiracy to engage in sexual activity with a child under 13 and four child pornography related charges.
