EMMA West has appeared before Croydon magistrates in connection with the 'My Tram Experience' YouTube clip.

An error led to confusion over the 34-year-old's plea, with the court initially entering a not guilty plea to one count of a racially aggravated public order offence.

The court file was later amended to show West, of Grenville Road in New Addington, has not yet entered a plea.

She was remanded in custody until January 6, when she will be formally committed to Croydon Crown Court.

West was arrested after a clip showing a woman with a young boy on her lap racially abusing passengers on the tram between New Addington and Wimbledon was uploaded onto YouTube.

The film has now been watched more than 11 million times.
