An adventurer from Grantham has become the first person to swim 1,780-miles around Great Britain.

Ross Edgley has spent 155 days making the journey around the coast.

Ross Edgley, 33, was joined by 300 swimmers for the last mile before he arrived in Margate at about 09:00 GMT.

Edgley left the Kent town on 1 June, and has not set foot on land since, swimming for up to 12 hours a day and eating more than 500 bananas.

He has battled strong tides and currents in cold water, braved storms, jellyfish and swimming in late autumn.

What a truly amazing achievement.  Well done, Sir!
