BBC News - Prince Philip has heart procedure at Papworth Hospital

Media_httpnewsbbcimgc_jfoiu

Prince Philip has been experiencing chest pains and apparently has been through a minimally invasive operation on his heart to remove a blockage.
Just as the Royal Family was gathering for Christmas at Sandringham this occured. A week ago he dined with staff and was said to be in very good spirits. Although his recent tour with the Queen may have been a bit more demanding than might have been visible on the surface. He will continue to be observed, but the procedure is common and a stent has been inserted into the blocked artery that was the cause of the problem.
