A MAN of 95 has broken a university's record for being the oldest person to graduate from there.

Dr David Marjot beat the previous mark of 93 years old, set in 1994.

He received a standing ovation from his peers and the audience as he crossed the stage at the graduation ceremony.

Dr Marjot, who has gained a masters degree in modern European philosophy, said: "It was hard work. My memory is not quite what it used to be but I was lucky to have world-class teachers and it was a very positive experience.

"I think it is important to always keep challenging yourself even as you get older.
