Two students who jokingly displayed a pineapple as a piece of art at an Aberdeen exhibition have graduated from Robert Gordon University.

Lloyd Jack and Ruairi Gray, both 22, gained notoriety after abandoning the piece of fruit at the Look Again exhibition at the university in May.

Curators saw the funny side and placed the pineapple inside a glass display, a stunt which attracted attention across the globe.

The friends, who survived a serious car crash on New Year's Day, were presented with first class honours degrees in business information technology at His Majesty's Theatre.

Ruairi, from Edinburgh, said: "I am still amused and amazed that placing a pineapple, bought for £1 on a study break, in the middle of an art exhibition would lead to me being in more than 130 newspapers globally, including Time Magazine and the New York Times, along with being interviewed on STV News and Canadian National News."
