10:11 pm
world leaders turning up and we'll see it in new york later this week with the united nations general assembly. but with so many wild leaders standing up with so many people on the streets, i am not said earlier that this week that i lived in london for 17 years, and i'd never seen it as busy as they said, there were tens upon tens of thousands of people who felt they had to touch history by coming to london to see their farewells to the queen. and so it, it commanded that sort of operation with more policeman, more police officers on the street than we've ever seen for any operation. and may never see the like of it again, this make no mistake about it was a world event. the eyes of the world were on london, perhaps not the 4000000000 people that some had predicted would watch the service. but this was something that was felt to one degree or another in many
10:12 pm
corners of the globe. and fisher, thank you very much. indeed. a hundreds of thousands of people came to london as alan was just mentioning to watch as the queen's funeral, cortez made its way from westminster abbey to windsor, and many millions more watched the service and procession on tv and large scale public screens around the u. k. for brendan joined the crowns in the british capital. aah! many had travel long distances. some had camped out over night to secure the appearing positions. around a 1000000 people were predicted to turn out the queen's funeral procession. and the reality looked pretty close. i did just as you see so far as on t v. anything? oh my god. that looks incredible. but like saying a like in person like oh what music and everything and they're amazing. rachel quayle had travel from bedfordshire together with 3 month old daughter. bobby. i personally had always said that i wanted to be here for the queen spinal farewell.
10:13 pm
i'm and i happen to have a 3 month old. i'm who will come with me and then we'll be able to share these memories. although she will remember will be able to share things with with large parts of central london close to traffic. the capital stations were braced her enormous crouch roll. funeral, drawing in spectators from all around the country and beyond. i don't like watch at home is not the same. it's not the same with football. it's not the same with you. no doubt. no. i feel like being here in person is much more like an event and we can, it will make us feel so much more and being pay so much more respects. yeah. oh, to you from the service in the abbey was broadcast to those waiting along the route by the system. the enormous crowd, 8 or 9 deep at the barriers, stood and listened in hushed attention was totally beautiful. mm hm. it represents
10:14 pm
a lovely day to celebrate green's mom. i felt i had to be here. 2 minutes silence was absurd, with an electrifying clarity and stillness. ah, then came the procession itself. this is what these tens of thousands of people lining and the roots have waited. so many hours for to see with their own eyes the final procession, and to experience the spectacle. michelle momentous notice of this occasion. and for the chance to say we were there. it was family connections that drew the nash's to want to pay their respects in person. my dad used to work at westminster abbe, my dad was a queen's arms man. so he'd seen the crane met the queen. lots of lots of things at the abbey. i've been services at the abbey, so for me, she's been told more than half my life for i don't know 3040 years. those unable to
10:15 pm
reach them all, watched the service at a public screening a short distance away in hyde park. o. thousands more gathered in windsor to follow the service broadcast on to big screens there. there were similar scenes in cities across the u. k. monday had been declared a public holiday because of the funeral. and hundreds of thousands of people took the opportunity to pause and reflection it on 70 year old of the royal reign ethan during states. since you do notice that the monarchy of england and especially to form a queen permits you still have such respects from the old monarchs to until sneed, that she was a grand mother to them from any in britain, the queen was a constant. governments rose and fell and were replaced. the economy fluctuated, but the royal family continued. the size of the crowds share the loyalty and affection with which the queen was regarded. the sense of what has been lost with
10:16 pm
her passing. it may take some time yet to st. kid, pull brennan, al jazeera, central london, the test done off as a rule. historian jones, believe this to you, thanks very much for it for coming in to give us an a historic context for it for, for this funeral. how does it compare with funerals? we've had for monarchs in the past in this country. well, it became a big thing from victoria's rain onwards, really in the early 19th century. we didn't bother much with george, the 3rd and 4th, they were sort of embarrassing and shuffled off of that mortal called quite quickly . in comparison with they nelson, a wellington big military figures who were given a considerable funerals with lying in state, et cetera. this changes at the time of the 20th century when you see the international stage becoming much more competitive, the german empire, the russian empire, sort of competitiveness. the jubilees and funerals all become a way of showing off at each other sort of an exhibition of pageantry. do
10:17 pm
victoria started it edward the 7th, who was of course, victorious great grandfather. that was a rather wonderful funeral. he lane state was very popular. george the 5th. likewise. and what you've seen is that the british monarchy has survived partly cuz it didn't have power. and it traded its power for popularity and the other ones. the kaiser, the german won, the russian one fell by the wayside. they, they lost the war with, they had too much power to one of the elements of, for instance, day was the tradition of the coffin being drawn by the naval naval ratings. but that was actually from a tradition from victoria's arid. absolutely, that was the 19 i want to know victoria, she wanted very much to be seen as the soldiers daughter. again in keeping with this sort of imperial competitiveness. i don't know how many people have seen that amazing pities to day, but the mile the re fronting a buckingham palace, the extraordinary gold victoria statue that was all built in the early 20th century, buried deliberate decoration for staging and victorious funeral. those. those are naval ratings. she wanted it to be military pageantry. so you see the georgias and
10:18 pm
the sort of politicians and the gray men sidelined and they have been ever since. and in terms of the value to the, to the u. k. of a staging such an event which actually has gone well, it seems you're going to smoothly and, and so on. how. how would you put that in the content? it's hard to judge immediately, isn't it for me to impact felony, the security will have cost an absolute arm and leg london with a lock down like never before today, bart, this is i think, my 4th international interview. people just giving screeds of time to an extraordinary event. i think macro and president micron, articulated for many internationally when he said to britain, she's your queen bitch while she's the queen. and today was picture postcard britain. it was like her final gift to the country. and people i didn't believe were cheating in to celebrate britishness. they would shooting in to remember an extraordinary woman who took his wife back to the 2nd world war to winston
10:19 pm
churchill, to the high noon of great britishness. and you've talked about the, the empire and that, so she, her, in some ways a legacy is the case to move on from empire and keep them on one a case of current. and one of the things she did was change that the, the rule of succession didn't she tell us about how important that was and will be for the future. indeed, that was seen is important because we thought today in the procession going in into westminster abbey. both george and charlotte, 911, respectively, hadn't been the other way round. and she had been the boy, a deal to bowl had been around and she'd been older than her brother. she would have become queen in her own right. as it was, george was born a boy, so we're going to actually have 3 kings, charles. but if all goes according to plan, now chose the 3rd, then we'll have william and then we'll have george. so in fact, in my lifetime, i think i'll see. and the queen a know probably will you, lauren, thank you very much. you need to have to know because i sort of thank you on to
