Frayne later pleaded guilty to handling stolen goods and trying to use a stolen cheque, and is awaiting sentence.

When he appeared before magistrates yesterday on the separate burglary charge, Frayne pleaded not guilty.

Prosecutor Jane Farrar asked to Frayne to be remanded in custody because of an alleged breach of a court order at his new home in Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire.

However, magistrates granted him bail on condition he observe a curfew, live at home and not attempt to contact Worby, who has not yet entered a plea.

The pair were pictured at a police station in Bradford on February 25, and Worby sparked public imagination because of his unusual outfit.

Speaking after the incident, he said: 'I'm no superhero. I eat kebabs. I never run anywhere. The furthest I walk is from my house to my car.

'I've never done fancy dress before, it's not my thing. So for this to happen the first time I dress up, I just can't believe it.'
