Tearful crowds on the streets mourned the Queen
Crowds massed along the streets of London to say farewell to Queen Elizabeth II.
Dozens of Buckingham Place staff stood in a neat line in the palace courtyard, and many bowed or curtseyed as the coffin passed by.
Dense crowds packed the route through the ceremonial heart of London, and many thousands lined the more workaday suburban roads that the hearse took on its journey to Windsor Castle for the queen's burial in the royal vault.
A woman with a floral hat in Hyde Park had tears streaming down her face; another held a white tea cup with a crown emblem; and a man draped in a Union Jack flag held a Paddington Bear toy. Members of the public bowed as they listened to the service at Westminster Abbey.

10-day mourning period officially over
A 10-day period of national mourning to pay respect to Queen Elizabeth the second's 70 year reign as monarch, has drawn to a close.
The Queen has been laid to rest alongside Prince Philip at Windsor Castle after a day of ceremony watched by millions of people around the world.
Earlier, the late monarch's coffin was lowered into the royal vault in the chapel.
Her Crown Jewels were removed from the top of it during a service of prayers and hymns.
Huge crowds then lined the route as her coffin was taken on a gun carriage through London and then by hearse to Windsor.

'Abundant life and loving service': Reflecting on the Queen
At the state funeral, Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury Welby told those present that the grief felt by so many across Britain and the wider world reflected the late monarch's "abundant life and loving service".
"Her late majesty famously declared on a 21st birthday broadcast that her whole life would be dedicated to serving the nation and Commonwealth. Rarely has such a promise been so well kept," Archbishop Welby said.
Among those who came from around Britain and beyond, people climbed lampposts and stood on barriers and ladders to catch a glimpse of the royal procession.
Millions more watched on television at home on a public holiday declared for the occasion, the first time the funeral of a British monarch has been televised.
"I've been coming to Windsor for 50 years now," said Baldev Bhakar, 72, a jeweller from the nearby town of Slough, speaking outside Windsor Castle.
"I saw her many times over the years; it felt like she was our neighbour and she was just a lovely woman; a beautiful queen. It was good to say one last goodbye to our neighbour."

Thousands come together to farewell the Queen
People who were unable to get to London for Queen Elizabeth's commemorative events have marked the end of her reign in their own way.
Thousands came together in pubs, parks, and even in cinemas to say a farewell.
Pub owner Karen Boore from Kent — east of London — says after a tough two years of COVID, the community needed a place to grieve together.
"It has been sad. I've had tears since it's been going on, since she died, but speaking a lot of my regulars, they got quite tearful when they heard she died," Ms Boore says.
"But it turned out that people wanted to be together to watch it."

'In loving memory': Royal family releases new photo
The Royal Family has released a previously unseen photo of the Queen walking in a field of heather, after being laid to rest inside a chapel in Windsor Castle.
It quotes a famous Shakespearean line that her son, King Charles the Third, referenced during a television address following his mother's death.
It reads: "May flights of Angels sing thee to thy rest. In loving memory of Her Majesty The Queen. 19-26 to 20-22."

From Washington to Paris, the world watched Queen Elizabeth II's funeral from pubs and theatres
In movie theatres and pubs, on giant screens and smartphones, people watched and pundits droned on as Queen Elizabeth II's funeral in London flooded the airwaves live across time zones and continents.
On the other side of the English Channel in staunchly republican France, broadcasters scrapped normal programming to carry up to 12 hours of live footage on Monday.
In central Paris, locals mingled with British tourists to catch the ceremony on giant screens more accustomed to sports coverage.
"It's a historical moment … and I didn't want to miss it," Natalie Dotson from Manchester said.
"So we found an English pub on Google. And then we've just come in today to watch [the funeral]."

Analysis: You can see royal fault lines in the details of the Queen's funerals
Here's the latest analysis from Raf Epstein:
TV broadcast schedules have been dropped and the weekend papers heave with articles updated over decades in preparation for this moment. But it's not all reverence. These are the social forces the new King has to contend with.
A TikToker, Ameziane, with 1.9 million followers, asks why food banks are closed on the day of the funeral; "Are people just not going to eat food for a day, because a 96-year-old woman, who lived an above average life, has died. what the hell? Why did that happen?"
On a Reddit site, pictures of the massive coffin queue, are superimposed with mock signs, in official government font; "All those in favour of a republic please queue here."
Young people on buses and in cafes show me some of these images as I wait for a coffee and ask them what's on their phones. These are minority voices yet even they turn up to see the show.
Late at night outside the Parliament, while I wait to talk to the ABC Insiders program, a young man approaches.
He shakes his head, disgusted by those surrounding us, as they come away from viewing the Queen's coffin after waiting for 12 hours.
"This country has lost its mind," he says, as he turns and walks away.
Which other figure in public life could attract so many global leaders and so many people from around Britain?

A groundswell of goodwill towards King Charles
A UK YouGov survey found backing for King Charles had jumped since he became King, with 63% thinking he would be a good King, a rise of 24 percentage points since March.
There was a similar increase in backing for Camilla.
"I think he's going to be a brilliant king, and with Camilla by his side, he's going to be absolutely fantastic," said Rosie Beddows, 57, who was in Westminster Hall when Charles and his siblings held a vigil at his mother's lying in state.
His heartfelt televised address to the nation the day after the queen died and the homage he has paid to his late mother have also been well received, even by some who expressed doubt about him.
"He has not missed a step," one of his former senior aides, who asked not to be named, told Reuters.
The King has already shown a more informal tone, greeting crowds, accepting a kiss from a supporter and publicly professing his love for his wife and children.
Robert Lacey, royal biographer and historical consultant on Netflix's hit TV drama "The Crown", said that what was once seen as a weakness may now be Charles' strength.
"Charles always has been a more emotional person, worn his heart on his sleeve, much more than his mother, and he's been criticised for it. Well now, heart on the sleeve, emotions of mourning and dedication, he's conveyed those very well."

In pictures: Pallbearers carry the coffin of Queen Elizabeth
Shout out to the pallbearers who I thought were splendid in what must have been a rather stressful and uncomfortable job. I'm sure many were holding their breath as Her Majesty was carried up those steps at St George's Chapel.

Hey Gabby,
It'd be an incredibly stressful job and they appeared to do it with ease.
Here's a look at them in action:

A spider crept its way into the service
Did anyone else spot the spider on the flowers. Did a quick cameo on the white card during the close up.
- RobMW
Hey there.
You're not the only one who spotted the spider on the Queen's coffin.
As the pallbearers carried her coffin into the abbey, the spider crawled across a handwritten note from King Charles to his late mother, laid on top of her coffin.
The note was placed amid a colorful wreath for the late monarch that Buckingham Palace said contained, at Charles's request, rosemary, English Oak and myrtle, which had been cut from a plant grown from myrtle used in Elizabeth's wedding bouquet.
There were also gold, pink, burgundy and white flowers cut from the gardens of royal residences.
