Accessible queue to see Queen lying in state now permanently closed

The accessible queue to see Queen Elizabeth II lying in state at Westminster Hall has been permanently closed, it has been announced. The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) tweeted the news on Saturday (September 17) at 4.33pm.

It said that wristbands for all remaining time slots have been allocated so that "as many people as possible" can pay their respects. Westminster Hall is open for people to view the Queen's coffin until 6.30am on Monday (September 19).

Then she will be removed for her funeral at Westminster Abbey. Mourners have been able to file past the coffin since Wednesday.
