A MAN has appeared in court charged with making more than 600,000 indecent images.

Paul Elliott, 50, of Stewkley, Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire, is charged with ten counts of producing photographs or pseudo images of children between 2006 and 2008 when he lived in Loughton.

He is also charged with one count of outraging public decency.

At a hearing at Harlow Magistrates Court today, Mr Elliott was told he must face another preliminary hearing in December.

He has not yet entered a plea.

The charges are thought to be connected with the largest ever seizure of indecent images by Essex Police in its history.
