Prince Harry misses 1st day of court hearing in suit against UK tabloid publisher

The UK's Prince Harry has failed to appear in court, on the first day of his lawsuit against a British tabloid publisher, with the judge saying he was surprised by his absence and a lawyer for the papers calling his no-show "extraordinary". Harry will face hours of questioning in the witness box on Tuesday, becoming the first senior British royal to give evidence in court for 130 years.

Al Jazeera's Harry Fawcett reports from the British capital, London.
