King Charles III is remembering his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, with a private church service in Scotland on the anniversary of her death on Friday.

As gun salutes and abbey bells mark the anniversary of his accession elsewhere, Charles and Queen Camilla will be at their Scottish retreat, and will attend private memorial prayers at Crathie Church near Balmoral Castle.
