The Prince of Wales has thanked hospital staff for their "marvellous efforts" as he visited people injured in the Westminster terror attack.
Charles met the victims privately at King's College Hospital, where he also chatted to staff involved in looking after patients following Wednesday's atrocity.
King's treated eight people initially, two of whom have since been discharged, and of the remaining six, one has died - 75-year-old Leslie Rhodes, from south London.

The pensioner's life support was withdrawn on Thursday night, taking the death toll of innocent victims to four.
Speaking to staff at the hospital, Charles said: "Thank you for all your marvellous efforts."
He added: "How you do it, I don't know."
The Prince hailed their team work and joked: "As long as you're still talking to each other."
Delighted nurses shook hands with Charles and took photographs of him as he left the ward.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
