A 22-year-old woman has been charged in relation to an alleged confrontation involving the broadcaster Jeremy Vine as he cycled home from work.

A clip showing a row in a street in Kensington, west London, on 26 August was posted online and viewed thousands of times.

Vine, who has a regular slot on BBC Radio 2 as well as presenting TV shows including Crimewatch, Panorama and Eggheads, commutes by bike from his home in Chiswick to BBC offices near Oxford Circus, and wears a helmet camera for the journey.

The footage appeared to show Vine being shouted at by a driver as he travelled home from work at the BBC.

Shanique Syrena Pearson, of Orsett Street, south-east London, has been charged with driving without reasonable consideration to other road users, failing to license a vehicle and using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour.

She was released on bail to appear at Hammersmith magistrates court on 8 November.
