Prince Harry will lead a team of injured servicemen in a race to the south pole to raise funds for charity. The 200-mile expedition begins on Sunday as Harry races two other teams of ex-servicemen to raise cash for Walking With The Wounded.
Teams of trekkers racing to the south pole for charity were introduced to the Queen at Buckingham Palace by one of their own team leaders - Prince Harry.
Three teams of trekkers made up of injured servicemen lead by captains Prince Harry and actors Dominic West and Alexander Skarsgard, will begin the 200-mile (322km) expedition on Sunday.
At yesterday's reception Sheffield-born West asked the Queen if she had been to Antarctica, to which she replied: "Of course not! I can't think of any reason why I'd want to!"
West, who starred in the hit US TV show The Wire, revealed afterwards: "I thought 'Neither can I'."
