[edit] Oxford not Cambridge

"The son of a missionary who was also a distinguished linguist, he has Russian blood on his mother's side, and was brought up in various locations including Jerusalem and Oxford. He studied politics at Magdalene College, Cambridge, and made a name for himself in student comedy revues, with the result that, after graduation, he starred with Alan Bennett in a series of sketch shows on BBC."

Changed to Magdalen College, Oxford in line with various websites [1] [2], and Sergeant's own remarks on the BBC Radio 4 programme With Great Pleasure, Thurs 17 Feb 2005.
