According to Neil mawson Mina did it.https://twitter.com/ClimbingRumours/status/522056636274585600"Got to watch Mina crush Mecca extension today at the tor. 1st woman to climb 8c on British soil! Nice 1 Mina, well impressive!"
Extension is 8a+ according to McClure in his book. Good little write-up about how it all breaks down and what it takes, which I won't copy and paste here...
