The first woman in the queue to see the Queen lying-in-state today curtseyed in a final act of respect to the late monarch.
The moving moment was caught on camera as Westminster Hall's doors opened at 5pm, with some of the first to enter saying it was a “shattering experience” which will “stay with them forever”.
Many gave a gentle bow and others were in tears as they entered, with the queue currently standing at a reported 2.8 miles.
