Appearing on a video link from Doncaster prison at the Old Bailey on Friday, Mr Richardson spoke only to confirm his identity.

Mrs Justice Cheema-Grubb set a plea hearing at the Old Bailey for 2 May, and set a provisional trial date of 7 October at Leeds Crown Court.

Mr Richardson was remanded into custody.
