King Charles III has recorded a message and released a favourite photograph of Elizabeth II to mark the first anniversary of his mother's death.

In the message, the King said he recalled the late queen's "devoted service and all she meant to so many of us".

The photograph chosen by the King shows the queen at an official portrait sitting in 1968 aged 42.
Elizabeth II died aged 96 at Balmoral Castle on 8 September last year.

It came just months after her Platinum Jubilee marking 70 years on the throne.
