The Queen's coffin has arrived in London after Her Majesty left Scotland for the very last time.
The Royal Air Force C17 Globemaster aircraft carrying the Queen's coffin has touched down RAF Northolt after leaving Edinburgh Airport at around 5.45pm. Members of the Guard of Honour assembled on the airfield at RAF Northolt ahead of the arrival of the Queen. The guard is formed of three officers and 96 non-commissioned officers and gunners of The Queen's Colour Squadron.
They will transfer the coffin to the official hearse, which will take the Queen to Buckingham Palace ahead of her funeral on Monday. Earlier today, at around 4.20pm, the King and Queen Consort departed Belfast City Airport to return to London ahead of the arrival of the Queen's coffin. Meanwhile, crowds have gathered in the rain at Buckingham Palace as they await the arrival of the royal cortege.
