Monday evening UK news briefing: Prince Harry's tribute to 'legend of banter' grandfather Prince Philip

Prince Harry has paid tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh as a "legend of banter" in a highly personal statement on his grandfather's death.

Describing Prince Philip as "a man of service, honour and great humour", the 36-year-old said the Duke had been "cheeky right 'til the end".

His informal tone, paying homage to the "master of the barbecue", came shortly after the Duke of Cambridge said he and the Duchess will "get on with the job" as the Duke of Edinburgh would have wished.

Prince William's statement praised Prince Philip's "century of life defined by service" and was accompanied by a touching photograph of an infant Prince George, below, sitting alongside his great-grandfather for a carriage drive.

MPs have also been paying tribute in Parliament and it emerged the Queen will resume her full workload, including next month's State Opening of Parliament, after just two weeks in mourning.

The Duke of Edinburgh's funeral will be the first occasion that marks Prince Harry's change of status within the Royal family.

The Duke of Sussex may have to wear a suit, despite having served as an Army officer, while it is believed the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Cambridge and the Earl of Wessex will attend the funeral in military uniform.

The funeral plans for Prince Philip will go ahead in full whatever the weather, it is understood, with no Plan B for rain or snow.

Read on for details of the preparations behind the scenes and here are the timings for Saturday.

Queues in streets as England's shops and pubs reopen

After months in the dark winter wilderness, the locked-down people of England have come out to shop, drink and be pampered. From today, pubs, bars and most other hospitality venues can reopen for outdoor table service or for takeaway services. In the early morning, crowds began to congregate outside stores - with some descending into chaos, while others formed orderly queues. Krissy Turner reveals what an Oxford Street shopping trip is like now. The pound rallied as England's economy began to reopen but some pub goers and shoppers had to contend with snow. William Sitwell was among the first to enjoy a meal at a restaurant, although it was not what he expected. Shane Watson outlines the five secret reasons we are glad the shops are back open.

It's not cricket: Wickets to become 'outs' for Hundred

Get ready for "outs" instead of wickets. In an effort to make cricket more accessible to new supporters, chiefs are ready to overhaul some of the game's historic terminology when the new Hundred format launches in July. One of the biggest changes will be that wickets will be described as "outs", while batsmen will be called batters in the men's form of the game. While no phrases will be banned, commentators will be encouraged to use new terminology when play begins on July 21.
