9:04 pm
queen's body has left the country for the final time. the roads may be still closed off and the crows may have melted away. but the memories of what has happened over the last 4 days will stay for a very long time. we know that the queen's body was lying in rest and giles cathedral just along the royal mile from where i'm standing. it was there overnight, allowing thousands of people to come and pay the final respects to the queen and they were just from scotland. they were from all over the country, people who decided that they would come to edinburgh to say goodbye, and also from other countries in europe. i spoke to one. finally, it came from france. they were on vacation in the north of scotland, but decided they couldn't miss this moment of history. and so came here to edinburgh to also pay the respects people lined up for hours to get the chance to say farewell. and of course, we also saw the saw that emotional scene of the for princes holding a silent vigil. giles before the children of the queen taking
9:05 pm
a place at the corner of the coffin and standing for 10 or 15 minutes when the queen's body was removed from some giles to head towards edinburgh airport. there was at 1st a silence, and then slowly a round of applause broke. oh, and it was like a ripple that moved through the crowd as the cortez made its way towards edinburgh airport. and then when it arrived there, it was carried by the 4 young men from the royal air force onto the c, 17 plain, ready to take off, accompanied as it has been all the way from ball moral by the princess royal. would remember that she took the 6 cartwright all the way down from the northeast of scotland through the main population centers of the east coast to arrive here at hollywood house for the last time. she was there at saint giles. she made the walk from here to the cathedral and she was dead again at the airport. scotland said its final farewell to queen elizabeth the 2nd. and ellen that brings us to the pictures that we're seeing on our screen right now where her coffin is about to be taken
9:06 pm
from the craft. the coffin has arrived to the north north holt in west london from edinburgh. by plain way, you are her daughter, princess, and is on board that flies and gods of on. going to salute her arrival in england. we can see princess anne on home screen. she certainly had an an enviable task of following her mother's coffin along its journey as it makes its way back to england . ellen, i want to ask you what you make of the scottish farewell if you will, of queen elizabeth when compared to what we're about to see which will be the english farewell. well, i think both will will carry the same level of emotion, but many people here in scotland believe that the queen chose to enter days at ball moral. it was a place that she knew well, a place that she loved. and many think that when she made the decision to come
9:07 pm
north, she realised that perhaps these were to be her final days. and we all remember the bulletin that came from the doctors on thursday that said they were concerned by the queen's health that had been events early on the year that she had missed events that she would normally attend even at the end of last year. she missed the remember in service as someone who was served during the 2nd world war. and the women's royal auxiliary is that was a very special type. her i'm for her to miss it. we knew that her health was great, her mobility issues, where an issue and also buckingham palace is said that we're not going to keep a running commentary on the queen's health. but then a week ago today we saw the queen as she performed the task of appointing les tress officially the prime minister of great britain and northern ireland. and the pictures she looked quite healthy. she looked quite well, but many people thought that if she was going to spend her final days, she chose to do it in scotland. she wanted to see her final days out here at ball moral. and they had
9:08 pm
a plan. it was called operation unicorn after one of the national symbols of scotland and she knew how things would happen here and how they would play out. and so the scotts feel a slightly closer affinity to the queen for making that decision to see her final days here. but there is, remember, a warning really to the royal family, that the affection and admiration that many people held in scotland for the queen doesn't automatically transfer to her successor. even though the crone does. and ellen, we are going across to banking in palace in just a minute, but i'm hoping you can walk us through what will happen now in the coming days once her coffin deserts that backing in palace, it white remain there? will it? no, it will be buckingham palace overnight when it arrives there. it will be met by king charles and the queen consort his wife camilla at princess royal and will be there
9:09 pm
as well. it will then be placed in buckingham palace where members of staff will be able to see their final farewells, similar to what happened here in edinburgh on sunday. and then it will, the coffin will be taken to westminster hall at westminster, in the building of parliament. and there, the queen will lie in state for at least 4 days to give people the opportunity in london to say their final farewells. now, the queen mother, the queen's very own mother, lay there for 4 days, and 200000 people chewed around the clock to say their farewells to the queen. mother, the authorities in london are expecting those numbers to be greatly exceeded as a country says its final farewell to queen elizabeth. the 2nd. allan stay with us because we're saying little cough and come off that air craft. now let's listening
9:10 pm
9:11 pm
scotland say good bye. and they will be a state funeral though in the next a week. will that be the final official part of this morning period or what can we expect in the coming weeks so so well on sunday we can expect a, a moment of silence across all of the united kingdom at the p. m. local time that the government has announced that there will be a moment of silence, a minute of silence and remembrance of the queen. and then on monday there will be the state funeral with all its trappings. and remember, the queen was involved very much in the planning of the state funeral at westminster abbey from westminster abbey. the coffin will then be taken to windsor, which is essentially the queen's home. buckingham palace was always the official residence, but she really didn't like spending a great deal of time there. she much preferred either balmoral or windsor castle and the windsor castle. she will be laid to rest beside her husband, prince philip,
9:12 pm
the duke of edinburgh who died. 2 years ago, his body will be moved from the initial plaut that was placed in to create room for the queen. and finally, the 2 who spent so long together. the queen who described prince philip as her rock, as the steadying influence for her. the 2 of them will be laid to rest in the groans of windsor castle. thank you very much. allan official live for us in edinburgh. i'm going to bring in our guest, sarah richardson, who is a royal historian and a professor of history at the university of warrick. she joins us from coventry in england. sarah, if you could write the lines in history that were saying right now, what would they be saying about what's happening? i will, i think it says a, a fitting stage to the last journey of the longest training british monarch. one has seen a transformational period in british history,
9:13 pm
and indeed the history of the walls, i'm so sorry, poignant, very solemn. we see that the coffin has arrived on english soil and will be transported now to buckingham palace, queens official residence, farrah. as we heard from our correspondent ellen fisher, there was sort of sunshine and bright blue skies in scotland. whereas it's almost feeding them in england. it's great and gloomy. yes, i understand that quite heavy ryan up fucking a palace where that's quite a large number of crowds awaiting the arrival of the coffin and it sort of matches the major, the country. very somber, solemn and fat wondering really full full the hold of the country and
9:14 pm
particularly the capital city where she rang just had to stayed. sarah scott's obviously had an affection for the queen, and many people do have an affection for the queen, but not necessarily the monarchy. what do you think will happen in the coming days and weeks, once all the official ceremonies and mornings? and now of i think this is a transitional period. it's a period of time for reflection, for the monarchy on its role in russian and the 4 nations of the united kingdom, but also in the commonwealth in britain's relationship with the world. so i would expect a period of reflection and consideration not just in britain itself, but in other countries where they might be having debates about whether it's appropriate for the british monarchy to continue to being petted state for example
9:15 pm
. but having said that, i think that one of the sort of fond of the monitor why it's in june, it's the longest, is that it's been able to evolve. and i expect that to be some reforms in the way that the one that he operates before it. he seen that charles has wanted a more slim down on a key for it. so i see that it might embrace change as well as looking at the sort of continuities. all right, sarah, we appreciate your insight, sarah richardson, a royal historian. we are looking at life pitches of their hers carrying queen elizabeth the seconds coffin as it makes its way to backing in palace. that's when nave barker is standing by for us nave. what happens from here on, in well, very moving scenes on a queen elizabeth final journey back to the capital city where she was born in 1926
9:16 pm
. and one of your other guests was talking about the weather. here in the capital is raining extremely heavily, and that seems to be almost contributing in some way to the air of solemnity around this palace. that is, of course, the size of the mona key as opposed to just the ma luke queen elizabeth and prince phillip boyce regarded this very much as their office as opposed to their home, which your school windsor castle or some of her other. what residences? nevertheless, the police to be very careful and allowing crowds of people to gather here in front of the palace week. i believe them in about some 3040 minutes time. although that really has to be confirmed. the hearse will arrive here and then drive through that gate just over my left shoulder into buckingham palace proper. but before that, there is a journey eastwards from ari ask no fault where we saw that on a guard welcome. queen elizabeth sir coffin into central london park paddington,
9:17 pm
up our phase will to roach the northern side of hyde park. those of you the know to london around mob a large down pot claim with some of the biggest hotels in the country are based insult. no far from park lane and mayfair itself, where queen elizabeth was born in a private house, not a palace, believe it or not, the sight of where she was born is now actually a chinese restaurant, an expensive one. i might add anyway, after she's gone down pot claim the or he will come around hyde park corner down constitution hill. before arriving here, the palace itself. it's a moment of great anticipation that we know because the king charles arrived here a short while ago that sir, he is ready to be part of the welcoming policy for his mother's final journey. the coffin will be kept overnights in what's known as the bo room here in the palace before. of course, wednesday, when the coffin is taken on the back of
9:18 pm
a gun carriage to westminster hole, where it will lie in state for 4 days nave. we can see some pitches outside buckingham palace of some crowds gathering, but to morrow, which is wednesday, is when the coffin will be transfer transported to the palace of westminster. that will be the opportunity for the public to say good bye. what of a expecting intensive crowd numbers the f one estimate i read was up to a 1000000 people. extraordinary is that so you can really see the extensive, the organization has gone into all of this. i gather that the military in the lease of set up a command center at the end of white coal. and what is normally the states department of media and sports of this, of course, has been in the planning for a very, very long time. but it's a big difference between the planning and the executing it for real. and there are
9:19 pm
vast numbers of police on the streets. make sure that things go according to plan. but yeah, you're right. in terms of numbers, they put about somewhere between a 1000000 to 1500000 people to send big british capital. but those numbers will be happening. sold, gain access to westminster, all itself. the numbers will be significantly lower, will be placed on a 1st come, 1st serve basis benevolence. we've seen over the past few days, people he to make sure that they seize the opportunity to be part of history of been putting up tense on the black, 5 bridge and insert on other areas. not even that close to, to, to westminster hall to try and make sure that they can, they can access that sir, that opportunity. as i said, the kaufman will be there for 4 days. it will be guarded around the clock, guarded on each corner by a member of the military in full regalia,
9:20 pm
were not entirely sure as yet, but we think we may also see some members of the royal family taking part in that watch as well. but as for this location, buckingham palace, of course, we are already getting a taster of the kind of public interest that we'll see in the coming days. large numbers of people lining the route to see quill as with the 2nd last journey to the capital and a nave. apologies name, we're going to leave it there because we're gonna move on, but stay with us. we'll cross back to you a little later in the program. let's just watch these pitches now as the house makes its way through london towards buckingham palace.
9:21 pm
9:22 pm
and we've been seeing images of the hearse making its way through the streets of london towards a buckingham palace. as our correspondent needs bach. i mentioned up to a 1000000 mourners are expected to cue to see queen elizabeth lying in state in london ahead of her funeral on monday. we can see large groups of police insecurity as well as thousands potentially of people paying their respects as the coffin is likely to drive pass. but in the meantime, harry faucet spoke to some mourners in london who are already lining up for a chance to see her. already. there are people queueing here on the south bank of the road terms in preparation for that event, which won't start until tomorrow afternoon. and have to say earlier on, there were more janasia queuing up to see the q than there was members of the q itself. but now you can see it starting to, to fill out a bit. and among the earliest on this day to be here was so stephen,
9:23 pm
hold get you here. at 8 o'clock, you are at the 8 person in the queue. why here? so earlier ahead of this event, i wanted to be here so that i could show my respects to the queen for tomorrow until you really wanted to come early silva, i was, i didn't tough to be in the queue for a long time. but i mean, you are going to be here for more than 24 hours, right? i know that i'm number 8. okay, the 8 o'clock. so that's a good sign. and dosier and i can sleep overnight regardless of the weather. and i know that i'm able to go through the with fit without all the people. so there's less less. i'd rather wait here. and then of a quick entrance in and out. and being one of the 1st to, to fall past the coffin, that must be quite, quite a big limited to contemplate in the future. it, well, what exactly your seats? a member, the lowest charger. until so long. you may be of a few seconds. i just need to go to show my respect though, my head to say a few words and then leave. hopefully, i won't burst into tears, but i shall take
9:24 pm
a page out of the queen's book and english. we always have a stiff, a village. i shall keep my emotions inside until later when i go home. ah, to the rest of the days he is now a new secretary of state. antony blinkin has spoken to our manny as prime minister and as a bi john's president to urging them to safe hostilities. earlier armani armine is a prime minister said 49 of his soldiers were killed while as it by john says it last at least 50 of its troops by signs blame the other for violence. they did say they're working to stabilize the situation as victoria gate and b explains the fighting along the border between o media and as a by john started early on tuesday. i mean, he says the, at the, by johnny army, shelter military positions around a number of cities. it released this footage showing what it says is as
9:25 pm
a by johnny soldiers trying to cross the border as a by john no community. not merely violated ceasefire because school, but it's also targeted armenian positions of those, the cd infrastructure inside on. so it's a clear attack on southern country. it's clear to talk with you in the state as a by john disputes that it says its armed forces were responding to a build up of armenian land mines, a weapons on the border. while armenia has been showing as virginia military positions for a week, 2 weeks now, which shall inc has been intensified over the last few days. and over the same few days, our main yes, started amassing heavy weaponry and ottomans along the border. it's an army and as it by john tensions between armenia and desecai,
9:26 pm
john largely stand back to a decades long standoff, sparked by the contested nagondo. caraballo region is internationally recognized as part of as a by genes territory. but 95 percent of its population is ethnic armenian, they fought several, was on this issue. the last one was in 2020, after 6 weeks of fighting as a by john, regain much of the territory. a russian peacekeeping force was deployed to enforced the ceasefire. and let's say the conflict appears to have been ratcheting up in recent weeks. there was meant to be a proper washing or peacekeeping presence on, in the area for on 2000 forces on. but some of the reports that i have seen is that this is very much been depleted to us. that it result off all rushes war in your queen. russia basically needed to bring troops in long form variety of other locations. the russian government says it's now working to ease tensions. it's
9:27 pm
urging both sides to show restraint and refrain from further escalation. victoria gates and b al jazeera and a short time ago i spoke with matthew riser, who's a former u. s. mediator in the nagondo car back conflict, he doesn't expect the fighting to escalate further. i don't think anybody, but the opponents of a settlement that oppose prime minister pushing on in armenia wants to see conflict . russia is no longer, really a credible mediator by virtue of its invasion of ukraine is hard to speak of russia as a peacemaker. france in when the cease fire agreement was signed in november 2020. it's foreign minister made an announcement saying, well it, it believes that armenia is in the right in the conflict even though the fire has happened. so the european union has stepped in as a capable mediator. and on august 31st european council president sharp, michel posted the prime minister of armenia and the president of visor by john brussels and they have quite a constructive meeting. so it's strange that the shooting is resumed on both sides
9:28 pm
by john. that was the status quo power. it won the last for it wants to move forward with demarcate and international border. so these sorts of questions don't happen anymore, but it's also frustrated and impatient that armenia hasn't wanted to move forward. so some would argue that gives us or by john a pretext to attack. the flip side is true to armenia is no longer a status full power. it wants to revise the agreement as prime minister signed at the end of the 2nd quarter, about 4. he himself seems to wants to move ahead toward a peace treaty with us or by john. but his political opposition does not still ahead on our to 0, where in pakistan, where communities are cleaning up after major floods. but some say aid is yet to reach them. and coming up and sort of familiar base returns to buying munich, pay to look to head to tuesdays champion play action ah, journey has begun. the faithful world camp is on its way to cattle. your travel

9:32 pm
a plane in edinburgh. my bad on our guard. and she is currently being driven to buckingham palace, these alive pitches on the streets of london. you can see lodge security presence. roads have been that closed off. it's now england's time to say good bye to queen elizabeth. we imagined that there will be large crowds, even though it's miserable weather and it's night time outside crowds have lined the route that her coffin will take, as it's driven in a herse to buckingham palace, then a wednesday, which is tomorrow. london time the coffin will be transported to the palace of westminster. that's where queen elizabeth the 2nd will lie in state until her funeral on monday, in westminster abbey a to cry. now where russia is acknowledging huge territorial losses in the northern

9:34 pm
how the press briefing today, where they are outlining what they're calling the key security compact. this is very much an aspirational plan that they are putting together and they're just starting to put it out on paper and announced it now. and they're billing it as a new security apparatus for europe that you will new security pack for europe. what it basically would entail is this. it would be like minded countries that would be signing onto this. that would be able to coordinate military, political, and financial support to ukraine now, but also in the future. should ukraine paste more acts of aggression or threats of acts of aggression? now, as the ukrainian military offensive continues in the northeast, we're starting get a better sense of how this is being received in russia. and we're seeing russian bloggers and pro russia military analysts that are now commenting. and there is
9:35 pm
a lot of finger pointing now with, in russia, on who is responsible for the battle field losses that russia is encountered over the last few days to kenya now where william burrito has been sworn in as the president, often narrowly winning last month's election thousands of people gathered to watch the ceremony a week after the supreme court upheld his victory. his political rival, rylon deena has challenged the results router will replace who kenyata under whom he served as deputy since 2013. now from where busy nairobi with more on the duration ceremony evolved the judiciary, a lot of pomp and ceremony, judges in road soldiers in ceremonial, uniform. now singing and dancing performance out in the middle of the stadium and them to speak to the new lady to kenya,

queen elizabeth the 2nd cortez carrying a coffin is making its way through the straits of london towards a buckingham palace. crowds of line parts of the road from me, a port in the west of the city where she landed from scotland. for more on this let's bring in natasha lightfoot, who's an associate professor of history at columbia university. to talk us through queen elizabeth legacy. she joins us now from new york. thanks so much for being on the program. natasha. you're the author of the book titled troubling freedom and take it and the op to mouth of british emancipation. so while many of morning the queen's death, many are also reflecting on britain's legacy of colonialism. absolutely . there's a much wider swath of the world, probably given that there was the old adage that was in place for very long time
9:47 pm
that the sun never set on the british empire. so there were so many people today that live out the legacies of british colonialism where they are and also in various diasporas throughout the world. because so many of their descendants, due to the effects of colonialism, were unable to be made in their home countries. and so many forced migrations took place that have brought up numbers of people around the world who have a history of british colonialism in their families. so it's a very personal issue for many millions around the world in a different way than maybe some of the folks who are in the u. k. proper. and relating to that being in a very different fashion. natasha. many people have spoken about the queen being a unifying force that perhaps she, people were a fan of the queen, but not necessarily the monarchy. do you think her death will further highlight
9:48 pm
that? i. it again depends on your perspective and, and i won't make all of the colonized worlds seem in one way completely opposed to monarchy. i think it's a very mixed set of responses that might be determined among any of these colonized populations. so the monarchy remains a divisive issue for people in the colonized and former colonized british territories. i would absolutely suggest that there were, as many people who might have some reverence for the queen, as there are people who are on her death, r renewing calls for republicanism. are renewing calls for reparations. there is a, it, an outpouring of very different reactions. so the queen and the monarchy could be seen to be a divisive force,
9:49 pm
even in the course of her life. and so her death becomes another touchtone for these kinds of very complicated conversations. and i appreciate your diplomacy in the matter. i guess i want to ask you personally what you think is missing from the conversations post. queen elizabeth, the 2nd death. i think that what needs to be added to the conversation is a frank assessment of what the british monarchy represented to these parts of the world that i'm speaking of. again, my family and my research centers on and t and the broader british held caribbean. and so many people in those in those islands are certainly affected and have responses, especially centering around the question of what kinds of repair a tory justice can be brought for the centuries of slavery and colonialism that took place there. that lead in many ways to the economic under development that is
9:50 pm
currently affecting these territories, the climate and security that's affecting the territories. there are so many different ills that are in many ways, like caesar lism, that need to be brought forth. when we talk about questions of what is the queen's legacy, what she hope? king charles the 3rd brings to the table then in his ladyship, given everything you've just mentioned. maybe starting with an apology and starting to think about what exactly justice might look like. that is a people centered project where maybe he goes to the colonial and former colonial spaces and starts to ask what they need and what sorts of injustices that they might associate the monarchy with that they might
9:51 pm
want to see right. it in some way. and again, nothing could be done to undo fully centuries inequality, but at least if prisons are it prince, well, excuse me. if king charles could maybe, ah, make a move toward starting to assess where people's politics stand. that might be the 1st step of that, plus, like i said, just now an apology. i'm at the very least open up the conversation and acknowledge that the monarchy is not just a singular force for good in the world. as some people might interpret it that it from where colonizing former colonized people sit, the the, the monarchy represents violent bloodshed and injustice in many other forms. well, we really appreciate your insights and your thoughts. thank you very much. natasha lightfoot, associate professor of history at columbia university. thank you. thank let them
9:52 pm
rush to nave back. and now he's joining us live from buckingham palace in london, where the queen's coffin is making its way and nave. we can see despite the weather and despite it being in the evening, there crowds gathering to see that coffin arrive at buckingham palace. it's a deeply historic moment, isn't it, sir? queen elizabeth the seconds final journey into the capital to buckingham palace. very much sure. the seat of fir, the monarchy over many, many generations and decades, as opposed to the individual that is the queen. this was very much in her eyes seen as the office, as opposed to other residences that she regarded as her home. they're quite ethereal. are they those images that we're seeing those aerial shots of the, or the herse driving in from ari aft north salt. in the west of london,
9:53 pm
the hearse has been specially live sort of, it glows from the inside so that people who are on the, on the pavement or an outside can see the coughing goes past for a very clearly draped of course, with the royal standard that all so flies high above buckingham palace itself because you king king charles the 3rd is in residence. he is awaiting the arrival of his mother. a guard of honor is on standby to greet the body of the late clean and of the coffin war. replaced her in a special room here in buckingham palace known as the bo room over night. but you're right in saying this is a massive event for the british public for other people who find themselves here in london. as the hearse drives in from west london, some people are stopping in their cars much to getting out to take photographs. and here outside buckingham palace, large numbers of people have been allowed very carefully by the police to gather
9:54 pm
around the statue of queen victoria and anticipation of the arrival of the hearse. and any a short while ago was known as the sovereign gate. the main gate of buckingham palace opened in anticipation of the arrival, of course, of queen lisbeth there very shortly. and now it doesn't stop their desert. they go by continues to morrow. it does. now of course, that is when the lying in state begins, civil around $1300.00 g m t. the queen's coffin will be taken on the back of a gun carriage, 38 minutes down the mall, across horse gas parade on to whitehall, which, as you know, of course, is the street where downing street is, is just off its where will the government offices are making its way down to parliament square to the palace of westminster, where westminster hall is the body will be put on
9:55 pm
a podium. there are drapes, of course, in the air. the royal standard. it will be guarded. 247 by members of the royal guards. standing on each corner of the coffin, i'm by we think around $1600.00 g m t. so 5 o'clock local. that is, when members of the public will be able to start paying their respects and filing past the coffin itself. we believe that the queues will be somewhere between 2 or 3 even more kilometers long. given the many tens of thousands of people that are keen, of course, to be part of this historic moment to pay their respects to the late monarch. we believe we will be moved through that space very quickly to ensure as many people concede that opportunity. and then after that for days is up the very, very short journey of the coffin form westminster hall to westminster abbey, where the main state funeral will take place. and we'd now know
9:56 pm
a few more details about who will and who potentially won't be at that funeral. we know that sir. invitations have not been extended to russia, myanmar or bell, or roofs, given current tensions. and that to iran will be represented by the nation's ambassador to the u. k. rather than any body hire a massive logistical operation, as you can imagine and need what's the mood? because people that you are speaking, terry intensive, how they feel about king charles now raining over the monarchy as opposed to the queen because many people that way hearing from speak very fondly of the queen, but not so much of the monarchy itself. yeah, that's a really good point. so i think it's something that so for sale, the forefront of many people's minds that yes, the queen was of course such a prominent figure over such a long period of time. and you don't have to be a di harmonicas to appreciate her devotion to service over the many,
9:57 pm
many years that she obviously alba position. so i think it is fair to say the lot of people see the queen as being more popular than the monarchy itself. and the monarchy is really, really struggle, struggle to retain a degree of relevance in the modern age. and what distinguishes, i think king charles is rain, is that course. he's been a prince for the past 73 years. we know an awful lot about his personal life. we know an awful lot about so many of the scandals move dogged his family in recent years. he isn't impervious to criticism. we know when he's overstepped his constitutional duties and perhaps being accused of meddling and in british politics, it's going to be very, very difficult. i think for a lot of people to stop seeing him in that light and now to see him purely as a sovereign. it's something that he oversee in his 1st address to the nation last friday has promised to do his progress to maintain the traditions laid down by his mother and to act as a sovereign,
9:58 pm
as the king and at such as the constitutional fig. ahead. when his door and i spoke to was quite surprised by the turn and if you will in scotland, do you think that will be much the same the coming days across england and specifically in london. yes i, i think think i the fullness for the, for the monarchy in scotland, particularly in the city like edinburgh, the power so steeped historically in the crowd. i mean, that was on surprise. most certainly i think that is likely to be replicated across the country as well. and undoubtedly here, here in the, in the capital. oh, will there be those who want to come out and protest? absolutely, definitely. and i think go, the metropolitan police have made it clear that that is their rights to do that. although of course, we did see a brief disturbance in edinburgh when the queen's coffin was traveling up the royal
9:59 pm
mile there. i get the impression that the police are ready for that. ready to allow reasonable levels of protests to take place while the same time, respecting the solemnity of this moment. i'm many people did. you get a sense because they want to pay their respects to the queen or is it about being part of history? this is obviously a historic my men as a bit of both for, isn't it? i mean, as i was saying, you didn't have to be a die hard monarchist or an ardent republican to see that this is a hugely historic moment for the country a large we often talk about the end of ears, but this genuinely is the end of an era, the end of the 2nd elizabeth and age and now we're entering the correlation air era . he and it's very difficult to get your mouth around saying that it, sir,
10:00 pm
a juncture in time. and people want to be here to pay their respects, but also to bear witness to this sir, seismic event in british history. and maybe just briefly, before we let you go, you've obviously been covering london for a long time. what's like, standing there for you personally as, as a journalist who has been in, you know, he's watching history unfold. yeah, sure. well, somebody has been born and brought up in the united kingdom. this is a hugely monumental period for the country at large. it's one of great significance and of course, this is history in the making and in terms of king charles is rain as history yet to be written. or i thank you very much. name back live for us there outside buckingham palace. right? we are watching live pictures of the queens coffin making its way through the
