The details of the Queen's final route of her coffin leaving London to Windsor have been revealed.

On Monday, thousands of people will say goodbye to Queen Elizabeth II as she is laid to rest with her beloved husband Prince Phillip at the state funeral.

The King and senior royals including his sons the Prince of Wales and Duke of Sussex, as well as Princess Royal, Duke of York, will again march behind his mother as she is moved from Westminster Hall to Westminster Abbey.

Around 2,000 world leaders will attend the service after which a two minute silence will be held.
