King Charles III looked emotional as he watched his mother's coffin be lowered into a hearse.
Huge crowds have lined the streets as the Queen’s coffin is taken from the Palace of Holyroodhouse, starting at 2.35pm in a procession to St Giles’ Cathedral, where it will be carried inside at 2.55pm. The King, with members of the royal family, followed the procession on foot before attending a service of reflection for the life of the Queen in the cathedral at 3pm.
The coffin was brought out of the Palace to the tune of the national anthem. A resounding silence followed as the coffin was lowered into the hearse and the walk up the Royal Mile slowly began - the black car remained at walking pace as the procession followed.
