Rolf Harris has pleaded not guilty to the 12 counts of indecent assault against four girls aged between seven and 19, dating back to 1968.
The 83-year-old musician and TV presenter has also denied molesting a schoolgirl aged 14 three times in one day, Metro.co.uk reported.
The complete list of charges include 6 counts of indecent assault on girl aged 15, 1 on a woman aged 19, 3 on a 14-year-old girl, 1 on a girl of 7 or 8 and 1 on a girl aged 14.
The star also faces a further four charges of making indecent photos of a child.
The artist appeared in court with his wheelchair-bound wife Alwen Hughes and artist daughter Bindi where a clerk read out a brief, graphic description of each of the allegations during the 70-minute hearing at Southwark crown court.
Harris has been ordered to return for trial on April 30.
