And finally, a twenty-three-year-old man has set a new world record for reading aloud continuously for more than five days.

Deepak Sharma Bajgain, completed his reading marathon in the Nepalese capital, Kathmandu.

Sadly for Adrian, his record has now been broken, although he remains the only person to have read the complete works of Shakespeare in one go.
