I think the UK police would want to be VERY sure of their case before accusing any celebrities. The last thing they want is bad publicity or, as US noted, this being accused of becoming a witchhunt (shouldn't that be warlockhunt, as the accused are all males?), so I'm satisfied that if charges are brought there's a bloody good reason for them and reams of supporting evidence. The cops are not going to just, for instance, go on the word of some 20/30-year old who says Rolf or anyone else interfered with them when they were kids. They'll know that there will be the inevitable bandwagon-jumpers and those who think they can make a quick buck out of this, sadly, or who are desperate for any kind of attention, and I would have to believe such claims would be quickly and effectively weeded out, leaving only the solid cases to answer.
