Royal correspondent(wp/bbc):::
Dozens of people braved snow and freezing temperature to see the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on a visit to Bristol.
Meghan and Harry toured the Bristol Old Vic theatre, which is undergoing a £26m restoration.
Heavy snow had settled overnight which also saw most arrivals and departures cancelled at the city's airport.
A planned walkabout was curtailed, with slush on the cobbled street outside the theatre making walking difficult.
The theatre was built in 1766 and has nurtured the talents of countless famous actors from Daniel Day-Lewis and Greta Scacchi to Peter O'Toole and Jeremy Irons.
The theatre's redesign includes a full-height timber and glass-fronted foyer that reveals the original auditorium facade to the street for the first time.
