How bad is graduating late by a year? (UK system)

I was supposed to graduate this year from an undergraduate course but had to delay my graduation another year due to various problems:
My life is in a mess right now :( (Postgrad issues) - The Student Room

How bad does this look on my application for postgrad studies? I reckon that my chances of getting to a Masters programme at Oxbridge again this year is slim. However, if I do well for exams next year and apply after I graduate, would I still stand a chance at competitive Masters programmes? (I dream of getting a PhD eventually but I understand that there are still many obstacles to be tackled after Masters.)

My degree course allows late graduation with no penatly to classification and grades.

It doesn't matter how good or bad it is. If your IN some situation then you are totally IN IT. Think about how to get out of it. This is more important now.
Rest like everyone says is HISTORY.

So, just work hark hard and try your best.

REMEMBER, you STILL have 40 years of work to do. And that's a LONG LONG time. You'll definately get what you want dear.

And ya one fact, ALBERT EINSTEIN didn failed even ETH ZURICH enterance test once . Damn he was dumb!!
