SOME of the best pictures from around the world and UK this week include an atmospheric shot of the Liverpool Liver Buildings shrouded in fog; and spectators in masks of Boris Johnson at the William Hill World Darts Championship at Alexandra Palace, London.

Pictures also show Brussels sprouts being harvested by workers as they prepare for the busy Christmas period at TH Clements vegetable growers near Boston in Lincolnshire; and Britannia Royal Naval College officers raising their hats to the Prince of Wales, Admiral of the Fleet, as he leaves after he presided over the Lord High Admiral’s Divisions at the college in Dartmouth.
