Prince Philip 'in good spirits' as Queen visits hospital

The Queen has visited Prince Philip in hospital as Buckingham Palace said he is "comfortable and in good spirits" after abdominal surgery.

The duke was said to be "progressing according to plans at this early stage" but will have to rest for two months after the exploratory operation.

Prince Edward visited the London Clinic earlier to see the Duke of Edinburgh, who is celebrating his 92nd birthday.
