The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh are joining senior politicians and the heads of the armed forces at a memorial service to mark the passing of the First World War generation.

The ceremony at Westminster Abbey in central London is being held following the deaths this year of the final three veterans of the war living in the UK.

William Stone died in January, aged 108, followed in July by Henry Allingham, 113, and Harry Patch, 111.
