In full: Mourners gather at Buckingham Palace to pay tribute to Prince Philip

The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “In full: Mourners gather at Buckingham Palace to pay tribute to Prince Philip” – below is their description.

Mourners in London have begun gathering outside the gates of Buckingham Palace after the news that the Duke of Edinburgh Prince Philip has died.

The Duke of Edinburgh gave a lifetime of royal service to the country and was the Queen’s beloved companion for more than 70 years.

Known for his no-nonsense approach and acerbic wit, Philip was the longest-serving consort in British history.

The husband of one of the most famous women in the world, he was defined by his relationship with Elizabeth II and relinquished the naval career he loved to steadfastly support his wife in her royal role.

While the Queen took centre stage, Philip was always, during his decades of duty, one step behind, ready to lend a hand.

Over the years, he carried out more than 22,000 solo engagements and gave more than 5,400 speeches, as well as taking part in thousands of other engagements with the Queen and committing himself to innumerable obligations behind the scenes.
