Carrie Fisher's ashes carried in Prozac-shaped urn

Carrie Fisher has been laid to rest alongside her mother Debbie Reynolds at a private service where her ashes were carried in an urn shaped like a Prozac pill.
The US actress, best known for her role as Princess Leia in the Star Wars films, was frequently open about her experience of mental health issues.
"I felt it was where she would want to be," her brother Todd Fisher said.
Fisher, 60, and Reynolds, 84, died within a day of each other last month.
Following the joint funeral service at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles, Todd Fisher said the giant pill in the shape of the anti-depressant drug was chosen as the urn for his sister's ashes because it was one of Carrie's "favourite possessions".
"She loved it, and it was in her house, and Billie [Carrie Fisher's daughter] and I felt it was where she would want to be," he said.
He added that Fisher and her mother were now "together, and they will be together here and in heaven".
