A message in a bottle discovered washed up on a German island has been confirmed as the oldest ever found. Guinness World Records say the marine biologist, George Parker Bidder, released the bottle off Plymouth 108 years ago as part of an experiment to track the movement of the oceans. Jon Kay has been examining the bottle's historic voyage. (Photo: the world's oldest message in a bottle. Credit: PA)
