The palace has said Prince Harry will attend but his wife meghan, who is pregnant, has been advised by her doctors not to travel. Our royal correspondent Nicholas Witchell reports. At midday in the Capital Cities of the four nations of the united kingdom, 41 gun salutes sounded in tribute to the duke. Fire fire. And for a man who served in the royal navy in the second World War and later, guns were fired in tribute aboard several warships. And in gibraltar, home to the royal navys gibraltar squadron. At Windsor Castle, the Earl Of Wessex arrived with his wife tojoin the queen in the familys mourning, as officials put the finishing touches to the plans for the dukes funeral. It will take place at three oclock next Saturday Afternoon at st Georges Chapel inside Windsor Castle. No part of the funeral will be accessible to the public. The Dukes Coffin will be borne in a ceremonial procession from the castle� s state apartments to the chapel. The coffin will be borne on a Land Rover which the duke helped to design. Members of the royal family will walk behind the coffin. There will be a national One Minute Silence when the coffin reaches the chapel at three oclock. Inside the chapel, the congregation will be limited to 30. The Prime Minister will not be attending, to free his place for the family. Members of the public are being discouraged from going to windsor. The best place to watch it will be on television, said a palace spokesman. From his highgrove home, the prince of wales has paid this tribute to his father. As you can imagine, myfamily and i miss my father enormously. He was a much loved and appreciated figure, and apart from anything else, i can imagine, were so deeply touched by the number of people here and Elsewhere around the commonwealth, who also share our loss and our sorrow. My dear papa was a very special person, who i think above all else would have been amazed by the reaction and the touching things that have been said about him. And from that point of view, we are, my family, deeply grateful for all that. It will sustain us in this particular loss and at this particularly sad time. Other Family Tributes to the duke were paid in a special bbc programme. His appreciation of how he could help the queen always seemed to be present in terms of supporting her, because she was very young when she became queen and they needed to be a Double Act for a lot of that time, in order to allow her to take on that role. My father was always a great source of support and encouragement. And guidance, all the way through. Never trying to curtail any of the activities or anything that we wanted to try and do, but always encourage that. And always remember and thank him for that. I think i will best remember him as always being there, i and a person you could bounce off ideas, but if you were having problems, you couldi always go to him, and know that he would listen, and try to help.

Phil robertson, from the Advocacy Group human rights watch, spoke to us earlier. There was an ongoing resistance by a lot of people. They had built barricades in parts of the town. And the military surrounded those barricades and the protesters, starting at 5am, and attacked them with machine guns, rocket propelled grenades and other heavy artillery. It was basically a massacre that took place over a couple of hours. But, you know, many, many people were killed. The numbers are still a bit in flux, but it may well be more than 50 people were killed. We are hoping, obviously, there will be more pressure from the un Security Council. We want to see a resolution, to have a global Arms Embargo that would be imposed by the un Security Council resolution. That is, really, i think the key thing that needs to happen now.

Returning to the World Reaction to the death of the duke of edinburgh and the people of Vanuatu Island in the South Pacific Ocean are among the most remote of them. This is the Prince Philip Movement a religious sect in vanuatu, Who Revere Prince Philip Asa god. They say he is the most important person ever to have recognised their existence, and spent decades rehearsing dances for his visits to the island. Ive been speaking to Kirk Huffman who is an expert on the Prince Philip Movement group. I asked him how they have reaqcted to the death of Prince Philip. The Prince Philip Movement people are restricted to the people are restricted to the people in the interior of the south western part of the island in southern vanuatu. There are several hundred followers of the movement, and they were having meetings, i think it was yesterday, with their chiefs to decide how they will commemorate the funerary rituals for Prince Philip, and i think those rituals will possibly be taking Place Tomorrow their time, i possibly be taking Place Tomorrow theirtime, i imagine there will be a number of ritual dances, possibly a procession with objects that they have because it was Prince Philip since the late 1970s who has been writing to them, they have letters from him, photographs of him, which they have, some of them are a little One-damage'>CyclOne Damage now because there have been a least two major cyclOne through the area since the late 1970s, and there is a lot of respect for him.

How the movement will actually react in that respect is another thing, its up to them to decide whether they will focus on Prince Charles and whether they will continue, i think it will continue as the Prince Philip Movement, and with great respect for Prince Charles, but i dont think it will become the Prince Charles movement, so to speak, it will continue under this sort of heading of the Prince Philip Movement, because the good thing about cultures in vanuatu is you dont really die, you sort of just get recycled or eventually reappear in a different Skin Colour or something like that or whatever,.

The first half of the weekend has been cold. The second half of the weekend starts with frost. And sunday promises to be another chilly day for the time of Year Therell be some sunshine and wintry showers around, as well. Now this was the picture on saturday at buxton in derbyshire. I know its high up, but we had a covering of snow for a while. Towards more southeastern parts of england, it was cloudy skies with some Rain And Drizzle that Damper Weather has been moving away, its been on that Weather System there thats heading into continental europe, so The Cloud is breaking towards the southeast. Weve got High Pressure to the west of the uk, a northerly breeze bringing in the cold. So we start sunday with a widespread frost, itll be a colder start for the southeast of England And East anglia as The Cloud breaks, lowest temperatures likely to be in Northern Scotland at minus seven celsius. And there could be some icy patches around too. Still a few showers first thing, although many places will be starting dry and sunny, cloud will tend to increase, we will see a few more showers make out in the morning, and theyll turn more widespread in the afternoon some of them heavy with hail, Sleet And Snow mixed in there, as well. Itll be another cold day, temperatures typically 6 8 celsius, maybe a touch colder than that across Northern Scotland, a touch milder than that across southern parts of england. But the damp weather coming into Northern Ireland by the evening on that Weather Front there, Thatll Slide its way down into wales, the southern half of the uk. But a frosty start on monday for many, particularly cold for northern England And Scotland where we have the clearer skies. For the most part, monday here should be dry and sunny, just a few showers near some eastern coasts. Should brighten up through the day in Northern Ireland, but stays quite cloudy through wales, the midlands towards southern england, some patchy rain and early in the morning, it could be a Touch Wintry in the midlands as we engage some of that colder airfirst thing. Temperatures will be a notch up on monday, but still cold for the time of year, around 8 10 celsius. Now looking further ahead, weve got High Pressure turning to dominate the weather through the week ahead, and that means the winds will be light, therell be some Morning Mist and fog patches. Youd expect it to be dry underneath an area of High Pressure may not completely be the story, though. Theres a risk of a few showers around, especially during the first half of the week. Many places will be dry with sunshine, a little less cold by day and night. This is bbc news, the headlines Military Gun Salutes have honoured the duke of edinburgh, who died on friday.
