A retired Church of England priest from West Sussex has admitted making sexual advances towards four of his alleged male victims but not the two youngest.

Vickery House, who faces indecent assault, denied any inappropriate contact with two teenage boys.

He told the Old Bailey he was ashamed of his actions in the 1970s and 80s, but said they were not sexual assaults.

Mr House, 69, denies eight charges of indecent assault against six males aged 15 to 34, between 1970 and 1986.
