Chope, of Newton Abbot, Devon, did not enter a plea when he appeared before JPs in relation to the incident dating back to 1 April this year.

But Torbay magistrates in south Devon decided the case was so serious that it must be tried at Exeter crown court.

The 24-year-old is charged with unlawfully and maliciously administering a poison or other destructive or noxious substance – namely Sildenafil, the medical name for Viagra.
