Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip's wedding

BBC, 09 Apr 2021
Princess Elizabeth married her third cousin, the Duke of Edinburgh, in November 1947.

It was, said Winston Churchill, a flash of colour in the grey post-war Britain.

Prince Philip died aged 99 at Windsor Castle on 9 April.

He was the longest-serving royal consort in British history, and by the Queen's side for more than her six decades of reign.
