Christopher Potter, 31, appeared at Nottingham Magistrates Court, charged with burgling two addresses on Berry Hill Road, on July 8, last year.

It is alleged he stole £3,000 in jewellery and cash from one home and £13,000 from another.

Because the charges are so serious they must be heard by a judge.

He was remanded in custody to appear at Nottingham Crown Court on May 7.
