6:04 pm
scott nathan with queen elizabeth piper. he would play at events play on demand to play tune she loved. he left the army, almost 3 is the go and the role he performed for the queen, but left with memories of a woman he respected and admired. for me personally, this was just some one that's on a payment coin or donna when a bite. no, he was the queen's or the person to me am for me. am i the retail might? yeah, i was, i was absolutely gussied was felix was the member of my family. wanna tell you that there have been 17 people appointed the severance pipe. 301843. on the 8th, a still alive, the former done me to consider that acute honor to glimpse behind the curtain the royal life will live. some of the things have been said about how much quick witted she was. a how funny and a me, but it's for me personally, i was of his off humanity as a person. that was
6:05 pm
a big thing. am how she treated a staff, how she treated me as a person, a me, she didn't like a boss and i should look up killing women. and that's, that's the cool thing for me to come. piper will play a role in the coming days as a nation says farewell, and you are. and what for her? remember the moment they shared a join down in sterling and 1989. and i was just a young 15 year old, a anna sweet elisha, through the queen. never with a ha thought that who 20 or g as liter. i would be sleeping 7 if i step sorry for the queen. every night i would be i would class the cleaners of our new person. she knows she knew my name's she knew my children's name. it is likely when queen elizabeth is laid to rest. there will be a final lament please. but of course, the country, those like scot medicine,
6:06 pm
will see their own merry passions. farewell. i the pi displayed the queen i til balmoral the place that she loved so well and they will pillay as they greet her here as she returns to holy rude palace for the very last time that we've had the official proclamation of prince of king charles here in edinburgh, you remember there was a meeting in london on saturday and it was agreed and committed that she, he would be the new king. and then that announcement is repeated in the 3 capitals of scotland of wales and northern ireland. or what is read here at the market cross, not far from where i'm standing there, where some boots, which is a reminder to king charles that even though the monarchy passes the crown from the queen to her eldest child, the affection which the country holds for the monarch doesn't automatically pass as well. and alan, as we, we've been seeing these pictures of the year,
6:07 pm
the cortez going through the streets. ah, the queen was very open, wasn't she about her affection to scotland throughout her reign? how did the people of scotland feel about her? follow it, there was scottish scotland in her dna. her, her mother, elizabeth bull lines came from a scottish family. she spent a lot of time as a child at bol, moral. but all sort glance castle on t side, which the cortege would have passed at some point during its journey from bol moral . zip. there was scotland, there she, she loved being, and bol moral. she liked the scottish people, should a great affection for all of the people of the yuki but scotland held her particularly close because of her affection in baltimore or so they feel that they should see a special good bye and they will get the chance when king charles arrives in edinburgh on monday. he will lead a procession from hollywood palace to saint giles cathedral along the royal mile.
6:08 pm
the road that runs from hollywood palace all the way to edinburgh castle. it is quite a climb, but there will be in said giles, for a service of thanksgiving to remember the woman that ruled the united kingdom as queen for 70 years. and for many, many people, including myself as the only monarch that we have ever known. okay, and for now, thank you for that. we're going to go live now to our diplomatic editor, james bays his outside, buckingham palace, and james, the focus is very much on scotland to day and beyond. but what about the new king charles and his engagements? yet king charles has had a busy day. he delighted the crowds here earlier on by leaving clarence house and coming in his car, but very, very slowly and waving all the way along the crowd to everyone. before he started his day's business, there was about half an hour later we saw him and the queen consort also arrived by
6:09 pm
car at buckingham palace ahead of the official business today, which is focused on the commonwealth. he's had a meeting with the secretary general of the commonwealth baroness scotland, patricia scotland, and talking to her about the future of that organization because he is the king of the you can use the king of 14 other territories, had a state in other places, but he's also head of the commonwealth that grouping of 56 nations that grew out of colonial times, grew out of what was the british empire, and was, i think, cemented by queen elizabeth. she was in many ways the glue that held the commonwealth together. well, the question is, what happens the commonwealth now and is certainly the focus of the day for king charles. he's also been meeting the high commissioners of the realm. let me break
6:10 pm
down that phrase for you. it relates to the colon local part of the commonwealth, as i told you, 14 countries as well as the u. k. where he is the head of state. well, they're described as the realm of the high commission of the realm. while, if you are a commonwealth country and you have a diplomatic representation representation to another commonwealth country, don't have an ambassador up. you have a high commissioner, you don't have an embassy, you have a high commission. so these are the diplomatic represent representatives. all those 14 countries where king charles is also the head of state and he's been having an audience with them as well showing, i think today his white role beyond of the u. k. m. space. thank you for that. so for now we're going to go back to edwin. now where rob matheson is live for a. so rob, tell us what's happening, where you are just durham took,
6:11 pm
are you well, i think we have some technical difficulties are getting hold to rob. then we will try and come back to that when we can, but we're going to bring in tom divine. now he's a professor emeritus sat, the university of edinburgh and the author of independence or union, the scotlands passed and scotlands present. he joins us from hamilton. well, welcome to the program. we've been looking at events in scotland today in terms of the queen's passing. what might the political implications be for scotland? do you think? well, of course not for the future. i. and as you say, your interview ease earlier hope, said the queen, hard, especially please in her heart for scotland and saw the scots for her. and what
6:12 pm
will happen? no. actually, i don't think that the i'm the parsing of the queen anne will affect the independence situation directly. because the independence or development or non development will be based on political, economic and social tortures. clearly at the margin of things, the monarchy is one of the glues of the union, but it is not as fundamental as, for example, economic ties, social ties on the ty, isn't connections called history. i should also see that m, i have a special personal relationship with the queen because she needed me in 2015 in the palace of holiday toes. and for my contributions to the history of scotland. and no boot you referred to as one of 4
6:13 pm
to 4. i have written on that subject. and when she noted me, you don't had a brief conversation after the dubbing on both my shoulders with a sword offer. and father king george the 6 and said give it a particular pleasure to be giving us on our new ah, scholar under an historian for. and then a voice changed them up an octave for and with emphasis for services to the history of scotland. and in that brief meeting, how did she strike you as a character and a personality and louisville? there was a mean. obviously this was a solemn occasion in front of a large audience of people. and because i was the only night of the new, the only person granted of knighthood on the occasion that on a number of other individuals who were given orders after me. so it wasn't as if
6:14 pm
we're having a cozy private chart for entertain, am or technique as that she does see a few obs to you. and our equity also helps her with vitamin information one the individual can sell. and then very gently, she takes your hand and slightly pushes you back, but nobody in the audience knows that's happening, but there are such signature not said indication that the time is up. so i really much enjoyed meeting her and also enjoyed the 2 or 3 occasions when i maritally husband of late husband was the chancellor. my university university of edinburgh. and he invited an end of june senior people from university for dinner in the state dining room at buckingham palace and recalled us vividly. one of my books which are sold quite a lot,
6:15 pm
a lot of copies and the university decided to present him with the 2nd edition. so hm, hes into com comes up and give some this big black book called the scottish nation . and he says, the universe to wish you to have this is a gifts or is the 2nd edition or professor divines an electron roberts is and he said he put his hands in his, in his face and said, my god, not again. and i said to him, so you don't have to worry it's there's only 2 additional chapters. and he said, then we'll find god for a lot. i mean, there's a very, very interesting, it hurts no. and it, you, you have there. i mean, let me ask you to know why the sense, overall, how down the years has the monarchy been viewed in scotland? and the, i think you've got to distinguish between the institution,
6:16 pm
the monarchy and elizabeth to 2nd, the respect in which she is held. as that, no doubt of that. and since she took a coronation, ortz, as everybody has said over the last few days, a coronation, also 1953. she heard perform an impeccably and public service to her people. in contrast, that has to be said with some, with some of the elected politicians, and recent and recent years. and as far as the institution of monarchy concerned, the opinion polls suggest that our law, that is still a majority of which favor the institution in scotland, scotland is perhaps the least committed to the institution of monarchy. and as a less committed than any of the other nations of the united kingdom, the new one is given what you say, then forgive me. how do you see things changing or not at all with the
6:17 pm
coming in of king charles the 3rd well in terms of the institutional monarchy at leaving aside the issue of scottish and defendants which you me, which to question me on, alyssa, am or potential scottish and dependence as far as the that the mom is concerned, that channels himself pies, how long had strong attachments to thornton, and he will definitely do as much as possible to uphold them. mean, even at the departure to day of the body of the late queen was incredibly unimed, fanatically scottish, the papers playing the game keepers of the estate, cutting the coffin to the harsh and perhaps above all the royal standard of scotland, nor of the u. k. but of scotland covering the m a covering the coffin, lily queen. and i think that's an indication. but the princess a day the the king's advisors will do everything possible to cement the
6:18 pm
relationship between the rest of the yuki and between has kingship and scotland. ok at tom devine, a professor emeritus at the university. anyway, we appreciate your time here on, on to 0. thank you very much indeed. and there, as we continue to look at the cortez as it makes its way towards hollywood house in edinburgh. we're going to go back to james bay's, who's outside buckingham palace chains. we see these thousands of people lining the streets in en route. what is the situation like where you are from seeing that people are still coming and going to pay their respects. and indeed to celebrate, think in the coming of king charles a 3rd. well, i certainly thousands and thousands of people here at buckingham palace too. and i think a less somber mo, mood because the people here, yes,
6:19 pm
they're coming to pay their respects, but they are not seeing what people are seeing right now on the streets of edinburgh as the cortege passes or through the center of edinburgh down, the royal mile to hollywood palace, which is where the quotation will stop and where the coffin, carrying the body of queen elizabeth will then be put inside a hollywood a palace, which it was the main is the main residence of the royals in scotland. it's the seat of the monarchy in scotland. it's been a palace since the reign of charles the 2nd. in fact, the name holly rude, apparently comes from a vision. charles, the 2nd had of a stag with its antlers, and he saw a cross between the antlers. holly rude means wholly cross, i'm told so certainly that's where the, the initially, the coffin will be taken and that those that knew the queen worked with the queen,
6:20 pm
will pay their respects the staff there at holly route palace. and then it'll be later time to take the cortez back up the hill back up the royal mile, and then to san charles's cathedral. and that is where the, the queen elizabeth will lie there in state for people to fall past her and, and pay their respects the people of scotland getting their chance to pay their respects to their queen were told that possibility before the public fallen was going to be something certainly happened to twice before, which is called the vigil of the prince's. that's when the male members of the royal family, certain times it's happened before. stand guard over the coffin before the public are allowed in. and it happened back in 1936. the funeral of king george the 5th, and when the queen mother willis',
6:21 pm
as mother died and her funeral in 2002 and king charles was one of those. then prince charles standing guard at that time. okay. time stay with us, sir. when we go back to an fisher in edinburgh, so eleanor anticipation must be building there. they've been aware that the, the cortege has been followed by helicopter throat most of the day, and they've had the helicopter in the sky. so the people here are aware that the queen is getting closer. we talked what about 20 minutes ago and the queen's cortetia at that point crossed the queensbury bridge, new crossing over the 1st or 4th, which leads you from the kingdom of fife, as it used to be known across the water into the environs of edinburgh itself. from the edge of the city, it's not that far away. we can hear the sirens. no, we've heard the soldiers been called to attention at hollywood palace. just a cross over to my left. and you can hear the siren, which would suggest,
6:22 pm
given that the roads around here are close, that would suggest that the cortez is getting closer. if you look down, that is the bottom of the royal mile. the building to your left no is the scottish parliament and you see the fluorescent vests of the volunteers, but also of the police who here on duty to keep an eye in the crowds, crowds which have swollen a number quite considerably over the last few hours. people will hear from very early this morning, 2 year olds bringing bouquets of flowers, including and people who are much older than not coming to, to pay their respects to really the only one article he had ever known in the united kingdom. so people are here and it may just be a fleeting glimpse, but they will get a chance to spend longer seeing their good byes when the queen's body is taken from here at holy road. on monday, in a procession which will be led by king charles. it will go to st. charles cathedral, which is about half way up the road known as the royal mile and deer. the queen's body will lie at rest
6:23 pm
a until tuesday when it will be taken to the airport at edinburgh and floor and t i f, north salt and north london and then on to buckingham palace. so this a huge movement a, in the final journey of the queen it's, it's going to be a long journey or take over several days. but clearly this is going to give the chance of the people of scotland to say farewell to us. as tom devine was explaining, a monarch that, that held a special place in the heart of the scottish people. just going to conroe. no, we can see the flashing lights, and there it is. the cortez and the coffin of queen elizabeth and, and we clears from the crow here that atmosphere labs land when queen for her long service of 70 years. you can hear the applause from the crowed dead, marking the queen 70 years of service. and the queen who spent summers, i at holly, rude and returning home for one final time to the place in scotland. that was her
6:24 pm
official residence, essentially her buckingham palace here. and scotland through the fence and it's hard to see with the camera because there are so many fences. i can see soldiers moving into place and they will bear the weight of the coffin and the queen and lift the coffin into holy ro, done just outside. i can see a number of members of staff have been with the queen for a number of years her. they are ready to welcome her home and the car, no pulling in to the courtyard at hollywood. here at the foot of the royal mile in edinburgh. that the car has been accompanied throughout its long journey by the princess royal princess on the queen's only daughter who also has a very special place in the affections of the scots. she is, in fact, the patron of the scottish won't be union and attends every home game is at scotland play when it comes to playing the sport. let's just take a 2nd for a moment to hear. as the queen makes her final final arrival back at holier it
6:25 pm
6:26 pm
6:27 pm
with one of the 1st visits the queen made in 1952 unbecoming the monarch succeeding her father was to come here to scotland to stay at holy route to visit the people of scotland. in 1953, she attended a service of thanksgiving at saint giles cathedral, the place where her body will lie at peace on tuesday
6:28 pm
for the people of scotland to see their fear wells and slowly with great care and with great affection. the color party is there no one bear the body of the queen to be taken to the throne room in holy rude. her coffin will rest over night and then on monday with her son, the new king at the head of the procession, it will be taken to seek giles cathedral the hearse just moving away from the front door. so it's fair to see after leaving balmoral
6:29 pm
several hours ago. the queen is home and holy root ha. as you say and the end of her long journey there something like 6 hours by road from found moral to the palace in edinburgh. a 175 miles in 280 kilometer approximately by raid. as i say, it went to aberdeen in the east coast downwards, up towards dandy oh, just to pan before it went to an umbrella, we're going to have a listening to more of the i'm concerned that
6:30 pm
it's interesting that many of the people who've been gathered here for so long, i've decided to stand or not leaving them working for them. this morning isn't, although they want to be with people as nicholas sturgeon, the 1st minister of scotland said it gives people the opportunity to see a collective farewell to a woman who was respected, who was admired, who was liked by the scots, and let's face it as a discourse don't tend to like every one but the had a special place of affection for the queen. and if we just moved to the side here,
6:31 pm
you will see the guardsmen who have been on duty here for the queen, leaving holy route led by the drum major at the head of the line one drum clean so that everyone keeps in the same beat. and followed by soldiers from the royal regiment of scotland. the connection between the queen and the regiment goes back some time. she is there a commander in essentially the honorary head under the same, many of the soldiers would have stood on guard when the queen visited scotland. the last time she came to perform official duties was back in 2021. when she visited a soft drinks factory, scotland has its own particular best selling brand of soft drinks,
6:32 pm
more than the usual names that you would associate. and that indeed are even more to the people of scotland that she would take time to visit such a place. the new opening and so after 6 and a half hours, the queen has left the place that she loved the more since scotland balmoral, where she spent many happy summers to come to the place where it was her official home, the place where she performed her official duties her official residence in scotland, polaroid. and as you can still hear, the bands and the soldiers marching off away to my left. having seen queen elizabeth hall as in thank you for that for now. stay with us. as we saw those pictures of her,
6:33 pm
the queen's coffin arriving at the palace of how to route house the official residence of the british monarch in the scottish capital and lie in the throne room . we're going to bring in christopher wilson. he's a royal biographer in london. and joins us, di, could you have him with us here on that program. but this is all taking alert carol days and a lot of time, but in a sense, do people need that time to adjust to their world without this? i think they do. and it is not only the people that we saw that so moving crowds and crowds, people in edinburgh saying off the coffin to pass because they want to preserve that moment. this is a collective moment of,
6:34 pm
of grief or respect of history, all happening all same time. and i've got to say that when you look at history from this perspective, from this moment in time, what you're doing is you're seeing that queen elizabeth actually was the greatest sovereign this country is ever had. and we go back to king william the william the conqueror. we think of queen elizabeth the 1st her namesake, king henry the 8th. and queen victoria, even she lived longer than they did. she did more than they did. she travel miles shook hands. the soul, more lands and gave an impression to which no other monarch was able to do. and by the way, she didn't chop anybody's head all the same time. so you know,
6:35 pm
everything about her rain was non controversial. it was diplomatic and it was finally to and she rarely, if ever made a mistake. and here we see the affection the collective affection of the people. at this particular moment, i must just quickly say, i was very moved to see as the coffin went into hollywood that the princess who cuts it to a cotton very moving moment. and then behind a demonstrably upset sophie, countess of wessex, who may quite soon be named duchess of edinburgh. and edward, as duke of edinburgh. and you know that the crowds outside are feeling one thing, those people standing by the gate or feeling something even more profound. and as
6:36 pm
we followed that cortez on its long journey from balmoral castled, aberdeen dundee perth, over the bridge and then towards edinburgh. i mean, thousands of people paid their respects along the routes. there was one poignant image of local farmers who that lined up their tractors by the side of the road. people have been very much making their own personal tributes along the way, hadn't that's right. it's entirely spontaneous. nobody tells you what to do. it's suddenly your instincts take over. i've got to do something to show my respect to our queen. and so they think that men who would have thought a vo lining up a bunch of tractors. and yet when we saw that shot from the air, it was incredibly moving attractors, but it was moving. and here we seeing just here the, this, this, this my with there is so feel deeply upset. and i, as she, of course, in the end,
6:37 pm
was the closest companion to the queen within the royal family. and princess anne, who, of course is accompanied or the the coffin on this journey is the senior royal and of course the queen's daughter. but sophie had a particularly strong and close relationship. the queen, she used to ride out with her a great deal windsor because they live nearby baksha park. and she shared with the queen a miss unusual thing. they both loved military history and they'd sit there and they'd look at military history books and talk about the past of that sort of thing . and she was a true companion to the queen. and so we see etched on her face the special loss that she feels. and as we saw all the hers in the coffin arrive in edinburgh. give us little,
6:38 pm
give us some idea of the history and significance of the palace of how he moved house. well, once upon a time, scotland had his very own king and it was only when james the 2nd came to the throne. hm. and britain couldn't find a monarch at that time that they decided they better borrow one from scotland. and so james, the 2nd became as he became james, 2nd of for england. but he was also james of 7th all scotland. and so hollywood palace suddenly became not only a central power in scotland, but also central power, really across the north of england, you could almost say, cuz a bucket that was a very, very long way away. ah, and the influence of hollywood parrot, paris, and the shadow that it caused. oh, was immense and it's less so now the queen doesn't,
6:39 pm
didn't stay there very much. and i wonder whether charles will stay there a little bit more. but it certainly remains a very, very significant part, not only of scotland, but of northern england to chris wilson. thank you very much. indeed for that. for now, we're going to cross to robert black fern. he's a professor of constitutional law at king's college, london. he's also the author of king and country, monarchy and the future king charles the 3rd. welcome to the program. we've been seeing these images of the queen's cortez arriving in edinburgh looking ahead. what kind of monarch will king charles be? do you think? well, thank you for having me on your program. i think we're extremely fortunate to have an individual such as the k and who is willing and prepared to take on this very
6:40 pm
rigorous role. and it's not a role, of course, since any individual could say, go on and we're seeing in the past, i'm at the age who apt to katie is, i'm sorry, who is for an english, his wellness partner, the royal family, not every one can, can type with the rigors and jim sessions in the royal life. so prince charles has had a very long apprenticeship, of course, his prince of wales and has a very good understanding of his constitutional role. which i think is particularly looking at the institution of want to keep for a book from abroad is not it is quite complex, not easy to understand for everyone, but there are some very importance principles or constitutional monarchy. i'm involved in a pothole. the 1st principle, i think, of constitutional one, the key is the doctrine of minister and responsibility of the modern acts
6:41 pm
upon the advice minister. advice from you to see what advice on one of the masses. so i think the prospects out that he will be a very successful and very take a well qualifies an excellence. i came to say comes floors in the coming years. you mentioned the broad that what my t be saying to commonwealth representatives today. well, on the public, well, of them all that is pretty wide ranging at home. he has some very important constitutional duties and powers. formalizing legislation giving law in a sense of the dissolution of common products, were general election, which is assigned to by a prime minister. and it's very important that the monic may change that political neutrality and then how she honestly avoided controller c,
6:42 pm
promoting unity on all masses. and i think that the personality of them on that is, is, are important times that will shape them all. and i think the, the role of the monarch will change slightly with charles because he is known to be much more. so for more, no, i said the others but was, but in his uh, one of the most important functions. a practical functions of the monarch today is promoting goodwill in foreign relations and particularly in commonwealth countries . where the king, of course, is the head of the commonwealth as well. so promotion, unity and good will. and as cause, of course, receiving heads of state for the grand occasion, putting on terrific ceremony which all foreign these as well that are in the
6:43 pm
council, not even american presidents. not really not come here before for head of state visits there. so it's really a promotion, goodwill. soft diplomacy, if you're like good will towards the united kingdom and supporting the british government says wow, and constitution the what changes a fanny will king charles make in terms of the monarchy if it all well, i think it's a very good question and it's one loves us constitutional lawyers and to get the universe is all of are interested in about that very early stage of, of the prince of wireless. he spoke about in relation to the church. now that he wants to be regarded more as a defendant of things for other than other than other ones. just simply the church and i think that you are, is, has really permeated,
6:44 pm
since the attitude are generally in the construction amongst the other faith, sorenson in the united kingdom as well that he wants to represent safe and spiritual values. and so that's, that's one thing i think guns, otherwise he wants to take a moment this the slim down approach to the royal family which was getting rather not at the. ready difficult where people didn't understand what people's study remote relatives, that position was. so i think this could be much more focused on themselves. camilla, the throne of forest williams and case and that children who before too long will become individuals and arriving adults, particularly at george, prince george and otherwise, princess i'm of course i am, the wessex is edward. inserting the royal family is going to be slim down. i think
6:45 pm
