The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge Attend The Naming Ceremony of The UK's New Polar Research Ship

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were joined by Sir David Attenborough for the naming ceremony of the UK's new polar research ship.

Hundreds of thousand of people voted to call the ship Boaty McBoatface however the name was vetoed with it officially being named RRS Sir David Attenborough after the conservationist.

Prince William said there was "no person more fitting" for the ship to be named after, while Kate said it gave her "great pleasure" to honour him.
