Bicester soldiers hope to help break a world record - by serving cups of tea.

23 Pioneer Regiment, St David's Barracks, Graven Hill, is taking part in a nationwide tea party on September 20. Organisers at SSAFA, the Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen Families Association, aim to beat the 1997 record, when 151,670 cups were drunk in a day.

Sgt Jones said: "Everyone who comes will get a cup of tea whether they like it or not."

The event, at Graven Hill Theatre, starts at 9am.
