Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, is being laid to rest in one of the biggest state funerals the world has seen.
Her Majesty, 96, died at her Balmoral estate in Scotland on Thursday 8 September after 70 years on the throne, setting in motion 11 days of mourning as the nation came together to remember an extraordinary public servant who was a constant presence in the lives of millions of Britons throughout a tumultuous period of world history.
