Epitomising a life of service, the Duke of Edinburgh dutifully served his country for more than 70 years as the Queen's consort on royal tours, visits and functions.

His death on Friday aged 99, just two months shy of his 100th birthday plunged the nation into mourning ahead of his funeral next weekend in Windsor.
