OXFORD University has presented an honorary degree to an old student - King Harald V of Norway.
The King was awarded a Doctorate of Civil Law by the university at a ceremony yesterday.
He studied economics and politics at Balliol College between 1960 and 1962 and was a keen rower.
King Harald returned to his old college for lunch and was greeted by a guard of honour formed by current members of the Balliol men's and women's rowing teams.
