Led by Princes William and Harry, a memorial service marking the 10-year anniversary of the death of their mother, Diana, princess of Wales, got under way in London today with a reading by William, the future king.

Members of the public were not invited, but hundreds of people gathered outside the chapel and cheered William and Harry as they arrived to greet guests.

While most of the royal bunch was on hand to represent, the wife of Prince Charles, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, pulled out of attending the service, saying she did not want to be a distraction. So, where was she? Picking mushrooms in the countryside.
