People across the North West have paid tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh on the weekend of his funeral.

He had visited the North West countless times, both in public service and in private stays.
And across the region, flags continue to fly at half mast.
On the River Mersey, vessels marked the start of a minute's silence for the former naval officer.
In Preston, veterans joined the city's Mayor to pay their tribute.
Veterans gathered at a social distance in Preston today to pay their tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh. Here Royal Navy veteran Ken Benbow tells us why he wanted to make the trip into the city centre.
Special services have also been held at Cathedrals and churches around the region.
