The Duke of Edinburgh has been taken to hospital in Cambridge after suffering chest pains, a Buckingham Palace spokesman has said.

Prince Philip, who turned 90 in June, was taken from Sandringham to the cardiothoracic unit at Papworth Hospital for "precautionary tests".

The Royal Family had been gathering at Sandringham, a traditional royal retreat in Norfolk, for Christmas.
