Comedian and magician, Tommy Cooper entertains Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh at the Variety Lunch in Edinburgh.
The Duke of Edinburgh was the Queen's long-term husband until his recent passing on the 9th of April this year, just weeks before his 100th birthday, the 10th June.

Tommy Cooper was an incredibly popular performer, known for his comically unsuccessful magic tricks.
He was born on the 19th March 1921 in Caerphilly, Wales, and tragically passed away of a heart attack on stage at Her Majesty's Theatre, Westminster, London on the 15th April 1984.
