Team of three young rowers set world record

A group of three young rowers have set a world record for the youngest team to cross an ocean.

The trio from Burnham-on-Crouch in Essex - Harry Allen, 20, Anna Dunk, 19, and 21-year-old Rowan Dally - were among 43 teams taking part in the World's Toughest Row across the Atlantic.

Known as the Three Flying Fish, they together completed the 3,000 miles (4,828km) from San Sebastian de La Gomera in Spain to Nelson's Dockyard in Antigua in 42 days, eight hours and 10 minutes.

The team raised money for Teenage Cancer Trust and came in 20th place.
