Prince Philip: Duke 'remembered for his humour' in the South East

The Duke of Edinburgh, who has died aged 99, will be remembered for his visits to landmarks across the South East.

Prince Philip's appearances included opening Brighton's i360 tower with one of his trademark quips, and he also unveiled an extension to Chatham's naval war memorial.

After serving with distinction in World War Two, the duke was committed to remembering Britain's war dead.

He described his visit to the war memorial in Medway as a "particularly proud" moment.
