Britain's longest-married couple set 78-year record

Loving pensioners Frank and Anita Milford have become Britain's longest-married living couple after celebrating their 78th wedding anniversary.

They married in 1928, the same year that Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin and the first £1 note came into circulation.

Mr Milford, a retired dock worker, added: "We don't always see eye to eye and we do have a small argument every day. But that comes and goes. We are always here for each other."
