RMS St Helena says farewell to UK for last time

Centuries of tradition ended today as the last proper Royal Mail ship set sail from the UK for the final time.

The RMS St Helena left London on a two-week voyage to the remote South Atlantic island she's named after.

Many St Helenians who live in the UK were there to wave goodbye and to say farewell to relatives heading home.
