Holocaust Memorial Day: Seven survivors get royal portraits

Manfred Goldberg is one of seven Holocaust survivors to have their portrait put on public display in Buckingham Palace.

The 91-year-old moved to Britain after World War Two and managed to graduate from university with a degree in electronics.

The paintings are a memorial to the six million Jewish people who died in the Holocaust.

Events will take place around the UK and the world to mark Holocaust Memorial Day on 27 January.
