The Dean of Bristol says the Queen’s death has provided the nation with a chance to properly mourn the past couple of years of Covid as hundreds gather at Bristol Cathedral for Her Majesty’s funeral today. The cathedral is one of several venues across the city opening today to provide a communal space for people to watch the Queen's funeral in London and say their final goodbyes to the monarch.
There were 600 tickets available to attend the cathedral on College Green this morning, with many on a waiting list in case anyone doesn’t show up.
