Boat Race: Oxford & Cambridge interrupted by swimmer

The 158th Boat Race had to be halted midway through because of a swimmer in the River Thames.

The Oxford and Cambridge boats were side by side after eight minutes when the sight of a man in the river ahead of them forced them to stop.
It was decided the two boats would return to Chiswick Bridge to restart from a straight section of river.
Cambridge went on to win the race with ease after Oxford broke an oar in a clash moments after the restart.
The last time the race had to be restarted was in 2001 when there was a clash of blades.
"It's not ideal but given those circumstances what could we do?" reserve umpire Matthew Pinsent, speaking from the umpire's barge on the river, told BBC Sport.
"It's a safety issue, someone in the water might be a very serious injury if someone was hit by a rowing boat. Fortunately we spotted him and stopped the race. What could we d? We couldn't possibly have carried on.
