hall. the wait time reached at one stage 25 hours during the night and people are being advised not to travel to join the queue. meanwhile, a man's been arrested following a disturbance in westminster hall at around ten o'clock last night. it's reported he rushed towards the late queen's coffin before being taken into custody. the queen's grandchildren will stand guard around her coffin this evening. yesterday, the king, the duke of york, the princess royal and the earl of wessex, held their own vigil in the hall. we can bring this report from danjohnson for you now. king's guard strikes floor three times. the sound that signals the change of watch called forward the four people who know best the queen's life and character. her children charles, anne, edward and andrew. all of them in uniform, taking their place in silent vigil,

lasting almost 15 minutes. surreal, absolutely surreal. loads of respect, just so glad we waited 12 hours, just for that two or three minutes. amazing. and it wasn't just the queen's coffin, you got to see... we did! how humbling is that? we got to see the whole family, absolutely amazing. _ a very emotional moment, and thatjust added to the whole afternoon, evening. unbelievable. she is the only female we have ever had and will ever have on our planet that is known by everybody in the world, from the smallest island to the largest area on our planet. she isjust the only one, our queen. and that, to me, fills me with immense pride. meanwhile, the queue kept snaking through the night.

everybody has remarked on how well—organised things have been and what a nice, positive, friendly attitude there is among the crowd. the temperature is dropping and the wait times are now up as much as 24 hours, but i don't get the sense anybody is going to be giving up. the day started with a visit to wales. the last piece of our national jigsaw for the new king's tour, his first time here as monarch, though as prince of wales for so long, he is closely associated with this land and its people. while the majority cheered, there were some jeers. crowd boos. but the king acutely is aware of the distinct identity here, including the welsh language. through all the years of her reign, the land of wales could not have been closer to my mother's heart.

roedd lle arbennig i gymru yn ei chalon. the new prince and princess of wales were meeting new zealand troops and others from the commonwealth, who will be taking part in monday's state funeral. the military�*s busy making sure everyone is in step. around 4,000 armed forces personnel will be involved. she is, she has been, the integral part of the armed forces. the glue between the tri— services. and for me, just to pay one small bit of respect by doing this duty, i can't measure how prideful i feel about that, how humble to have the opportunity to do that. last night a man was arrested in westminster hall after a disturbance a couple of hours after the royals left.

there are reports he ran forward and touched the queen's coffin. this has been a place of quiet calm and focused thoughts, from so many who have stepped up on behalf of their country in bad times or in good. david beckham queued for 12 hours, and he picked up on the sense of generational change felt by so many here. i grew up in a family that were all royalists. i think back to my grandparents, because if my grandparents were alive, they would have been here, so it's nice to be here to celebrate with everybody, you know, the life of her majesty and the legacy that she has left. the king's vigil lasted just a few solemn minutes. a new monarch watching over the old, a son's silent tribute.

king's guard strikes floor three times. and this evening, the queen's grandchildren will take their turn here, standing guard in protection and in mourning. danjohnson, bbc news, westminster. rehearsals have been under way, under the cover of night, ahead of the queen's funeral. ahead of the queen's funeral on monday. let's bring you pictures of military representatives rehearsing outside windsor castle. the queen's coffin will be taken there after monday's funeral at westminster abbey. it will then be laid in the royal vault at windsor, beside the queen's lat husband, the duke of edinburgh, who died in april 2021. at windsor barracks — the armed forces participating

in the procession have rehearsed for the first time as one. particularly on this occasion, everyone wants to do their level best to give the queen the most fitting, appropriate send—off that we can. and there's a real vibe around camp at the moment, people really puffing out their chests, wanting to do their level best for the queen, for herfinal send—off. we will be looking our absolute sharpest. notjust not just people notjust people in the united kingdom mourning queen elizabeth. people all around the world. a memorial is taking place in kenya, at a church that the then—princess elizabeth visited just days before she became queen. a few days after that, her father king george vi died and she took the british throne. anne soy is outside the church in naro moru and joins me now. yes, as you can imagine the people here feel a special connection to the queen because of that history

and their service has just ended, the queen because of that history and their service hasjust ended, a beautiful service, and they were reflecting on her life of service. they were also reflecting on her sense of humour and just mentioning that her grand entry into the game mis—in london a few years ago, and there were smiles when they were reflecting on that. none of these people would have been here in 1952. we were hoping one member who is still alive came here but sadly he didn't make it to come. but many of them feel a special connection to them feel a special connection to the queen, partly because of this church where the queen attended as a princess, just a few days later, as you say, became queen. this church was filled to capacity and that tells you something about what this means for the local community here in naro moru in the foothills of mount kenya.

in naro moru in the foothills of mount kenya-— in naro moru in the foothills of mount ken a. . ~' ,, , . mount kenya. thank you very much indeed. mount kenya. thank you very much indeed- and — mount kenya. thank you very much indeed. and soy _ mount kenya. thank you very much indeed. and soy for _ mount kenya. thank you very much indeed. and soy for us. _ asi as i was saying people laying floral tributes at buckingham palace in memory of the queen but the focus of attention still very much at westminster hall. let's cross over to my colleague karin giannone who is at westminster for us. these queueing times are extraordinary but still people are coming. yes, they are extraordinary, ben, because they were over 24 hours expected queueing time at the beginning of today. it was still dark, people were coming through from their overnight queue, emerging after about 12 hours. but access to the queue were stopped and people were being urged not to travel, not to come to london to join the queue at southwark park because the wait time was over 24 hours. the estimated wait time. and the queue was at near total capacity. however, things have eased slightly since then. the latest update on the live

youtube feed that the government has put in place says that the queue is in southwark park, the waiting time is currently an estimated 16 hours, thatis is currently an estimated 16 hours, that is five miles away from here. it is the very limits of the queue's capacity, eight kilometres, and people arejoining at capacity, eight kilometres, and people are joining at southwark park. but southwark park itself at various points in the last 24 hours has been closed because so many people have been coming down. what you are looking at now is very close to where we are, the snake, that it has been called since it started, where people are concentrated into such a small area. they are very close to the palace of westminster, westminster hall, to getting on but when they get to this point they have been queueing for 12 hours and then they are condensed and it's another hour or two to get through this tight—knit formation before they get to security and before another half an hour or so they get into westminster hall. i've just been speaking to people in the

queue. the first phenomenon i have seen of somebody doing it for the second time. a man who hasjust come through and said he had been in the queue for more than 12 hours overnight last night, but he did it in eight hours yesterday and he liked it so much, it was such a rewarding experience for him that he has gone through it all over again and has made friends with the people that have stood with hour after hour through the night. it's been really cold, the sun is up now, as you can see, which is a welcome relief. it has been really cold, very autumnal overnight. five miles away from here, the beginning of the queue, southwark park, which has seen people turning up and not being able tojoin the queue people turning up and not being able to join the queue over the last 24 hours seems to be open again. let's talk to my colleague lauren moss. what is the situation there? are people able to start queueing? thank you, yes, they are. you might see behind me the slow steady stream making their way through the railings, again sort of design in that snake like a zigzag shape to

stem the flow of people coming into southwark park around five miles away from westminster. this is the start of the queue, or the end of the queue, in a sense, this is where people arejoining it the queue, in a sense, this is where people are joining it from. after they have come here and collected their wristbands which will have a certain number on they then cross the road and head down the thames path towards bermondsey and snake their way up again past the houses and warehouses there towards tower bridge, edging closer to westminster. i've been down here since around five o'clock this morning and it has got steadily busier. there was that warning overnight, advice urging people not to travel to london because the queue time was so long. the advice has been adapted in the last few hours and now the government is saying that if this park reaches capacity like it did yesterday then the queue will be paused. but at the minute anyone entering the queue now faces around a 16 hour wait until they make it to westminster hall. i've been speaking to people since

the early hours of this morning who have travelled from various places around the uk. a lady from east yorkshire who went to the theatre last night and then got in her car and drove straight here and hasn't had any sleep, and likely won't have any until the early hours of tomorrow morning. a father and his daughter. some people that have travelled from belgium. and families as well making the journey together. because what has really struck me with the people i've been speaking to is the personal connection they feel with paying their respects to her majesty the queen in westminster hall. they say it makes them think about when they lost loved ones and that's why they want to come here and pay their respects to her serving this country. that's very much the feeling. but while it is a sombre feeling, as we have been hearing over the last three days, quite a lot of camaraderie around everybody who is gathering here. they are making friends with strangers, they are sharing snacks, everyone is getting on really well with each other and making friends, and probably friends they may well stay in touch with. all the way

along the line there are stewards, plenty of police officers, everyone is very friendly, there are coffee and tea stands set up, and everybody is in this together. somebody said to me, a man who came overfrom belgium, he was struck by the britishness of it all, the queueing and friendliness among everyone to take part in this historic event. absolutely the same here, there is almost an excited atmosphere as people are around in this area because they are feeling that they can be part of this event. it means so much to them and in so many ways, for whatever individual reasons, to be part of this among tens, hundreds of thousands of people, potentially. lots of people also around here at westminster going to buckingham palace and have flowers in their hands, having travelled from all over the country, and they have bouquets of flowers and they are going to lay them at buckingham palace. some people here saying we don't mind if we don'tjoin the but they have come from work, over the weekend, afterfinishing work they have come from work, over the weekend, after finishing work on friday and headed straight for

london from all over the country. but it is a changing situation with the queue. lauren, i don't know if you are still able to hear me but do we know what happens if people get to southwark park and at that point the entrance to the queue is closed? where do they go then? we had talked yesterday of a queue for the queue. again something which sounds very british as well! there was a queue for the queue, and another queue at the back waiting to get into that queue. that is not the official advice. what is the situation is here is a balancing act, they are very much aware of people travelling quite a long wait to come here and try to pay their respects and they don't want people to be stuck in the queue and not be able to get into westminster hall before 6:30am on monday morning, when the queen will be lying in state until then before the funeral takes place around 10:30am,11am on monday. while

10:30am, 11am on monday. while they want as many people as possible to get through, they don't want the situation that more people turn up and they might wait on ten hours to only be told on monday morning that thatis only be told on monday morning that that is as far as they can go. that's something we will see over the next few days, that is how they are assessing this queueing system, the park was closed this morning and now it is opening and there is a very steady stream. sometimes further down the queue it is a standstill for several minutes and thenit standstill for several minutes and then it will move quite quickly as well again. they are trying to move people along but a watchful eye to make sure it does not get to the cut—off point and people are joining another queue to get into the queue because they want to make sure as many people can come through as possible without being turned away disappointed. so the key was open until 6:30am on monday morning. find until 6:30am on monday morning. and the l in: until 6:30am on monday morning. and the lying in state officially comes to an end at 6:30am on monday morning, the day of the funeral. lauren is where the queue begins,

southwark park, 70 miles away from here, on the south bank of the river thames, five miles or eight kilometres away. they are still coming to join the queue. kilometres away. they are still coming tojoin the queue. the people behind me are reporting it's about 14 hours, theyjoined at about 8pm, they are coming through now, they will file around the palace of westminster where there is a big white tent where they go through airport style security. they have to give up all of their food and drink. the food which is in sealed packaging goes to the food bank, the rest is thrown away or recycle. they are now nearing the have been talking to people coming out on the other side and they are overwhelmed with emotion. the whole experience of being there has been so meaningfulfor them in so many ways. a lot of people reporting that they felt quite nervous going in, it was such a massive sense of occasion

as they entered westminster hall. as well as the architecture of the place itself being beautiful and overwhelming, all of them still continue to tell us that whatever time they have taken to get through the queue to go along the south bank of the thames, through the night and the cold, it has been worthwhile. back to you, at buckingham palace, ben. it is a real blessing that the weather has been so beautiful for the people in the queue there. people have been here too to lay floral tributes, on the tube this morning there were so many people on the underground with flowers to bring to buckingham palace. tomorrow there will be an extraordinary reception here at the palace hosted by king charles and the queen consort of world leaders who are here in london for the funeral on monday. presidents, prime ministers,

about 30 members of overseas royalty. it is going to be an absolutely staggering gathering of heads of state and world leaders. president biden, president macron of france among them, all hosted by king charles and other members, working members of the royal family, on the eve of queen elizabeth's family. that's it from buckingham palace, back to jane for the rest of the today's news. thank you very much, more to come from ben later on. now to other news — ukraine's president zelensky has accused russia of committing war crimes in territory recently re—taken by ukrainian forces in the north east of the country. officials say they've found more than 400 graves containing civilians and around 20 soldiers, who are said to have had their hands bound. they were discovered in the city of izyum, which russian forces captured in april. ukraine says the bodies will be exhumed and sent for forensic examination. izyum is among the areas back

in ukrainian hands with ukraine having made significant territorial gains since the start of the month although heavy fighting is continuing in the areas shown in circles here. 0rla guerin, has sent this report from izyum, and it contains some distressing images. under the pine trees of izyum, a war crimes investigation. this burial site has more than 400 graves, now being exhumed. the earth starting to give up its secrets. but the prosecutor here already claiming that russia is responsible for almost all of the dead. "according to our data, almost everyone died because of russian soldiers," says 0leksandr.

"some were killed, some were tortured, some were hit in russian air and artillery strikes." he says the very first grave they opened contained the body of a civilian with a rope around his neck. this knife was recovered from the remains of a soldier. a senior official told us more than 20 troops were found in a single grave with signs of torture. some had their hands bound. for those at the scene, it was hard to take. this is a distressing sight, but ukraine is determined that the world should see it. graves are being opened here one by one. it's only now, after the russians have been pushed out, that the authorities can really investigate and can establish how many victims they left behind.

they were buried here in makeshift graves, many marked only with a number. among them, a 65—year—old called lyudmila, who was killed in march in heavy russian shelling. her husband gregoriy tells me, then he had to bury her in the yard. she was brought here in august. now, her remains will be disturbed again. "she was beloved," he says. "we had no children. god didn't give us that gift. but we were in love." emergency service workers drained by their labours. we can't be sure of what killed all those buried here, but they expect to be digging at more sites like this in areas recently taken back from the russians. 0rla guerin, bbc news, izyum.

at least ten people have died in italy after heavy rains and flooding hit the central region of marche. search operations are under way for four people who're still missing. about forty centimetres of rain fell in three hours, that's a third of the rainfall usually received in a year. the white house says it's deeply concerned by the death of a young iranian woman after being arrested by iran's morality police. president biden's national security advisor, jake sullivan, described the incident as "unforgiveable". mahsa amini, who was 22, died after being detained in tehran for allegedly violating the islamic republic�*s strict dress code for women. the police watchdog, the iopc, says it will investigate whether race was a factor in the fatal shooting

of a unarmed black man. chris kaba, who was 24, was killed after a police car chase in south london earlier this month. the firearms officers who shot him has been suspended from duty. his family has accused the metropolitan police of racism. heads of state and foreign dignitaries from around the world are expected to attend the queen's funeral on monday. and they will be joined by a cowboy from california. monty roberts is famous for his non—violent horse training, a method that impressed the queen and formed the basis of a decades—long friendship. the bbc�*s regan morris met monty at his ranch in solvang, california before he left for the uk. member of the victorian order, a knighthood, a cowboy from california gets a knighthood. can you believe it?

and this was given to me in her office, not outside with the top hat and tails and all that stuff. in her office, very personally. he loves to run — like that. her majesty's in a meeting in northern ireland with politicians there, and she won't be able to take your call. and i said, that's ok, just tell me when i should call back, then, and then i heard, "monty, how are you?" "your majesty! they told me you couldn't take the call." "no," she said. "they probably told you i was in a meeting with important people. and your calls are more important to me than anything, so i came out of the meeting and took the call." i almost fell off the phone. i couldn't believe it. i've never been received by people like that in my life. there's letters in here and christmas cards in here. here's one from the military

in england and the central intelligence agency in the united states. the queen up here with her family and herfavourite group of horses. prince philip and the queen here. and letters that were written, and to be sure, with some integrity, because she wrote this letter and she addressed the envelope, too. but in order to save a bit of loose change she wrote on the back of the stationery. i'm sorry for me, i'm sorry for the world, i'm sorry for the family. she was just a wonderful person that just shouldn't have died ever. i know it has to happen but ijust loved her so much.

what a delightful story. one of the many people who is heading to london for the queen's funeral on monday. let's return to buckingham palace and rejoin ben come over to you. you can see some of the people who have come to london to pay their respects to the queen. here at buckingham palace. and it is a day of warm september sunshine as they lay their floral tributes outside the gates of the palace here in central london. and not too far away, the queue to see the late queen lying in state is growing ever longer. at one stage overnight it reached 25 hours wait. and now we are told it is at least 24 hours. so people are prepared to wait an extraordinarily long period of time

to see the queen, lying in state in westminster hall, and pay their last respects. and tonight in westminster hall, the queen because my grandchildren will stand vigil at her coffin, including prince william at the head of the coffin, and prince harry at the foot of the coffin. prince harry will be able to wear a royal uniform. coffin. prince harry will be able to weara royal uniform. he coffin. prince harry will be able to wear a royal uniform. he has had special dispensation as a gesture of respect to the late queen elizabeth to wear the uniform. we are being told that king charles is going to arrive here shortly at buckingham palace, and he might be able to see some of the crowds behind me who are lining up behind the barricades who are waiting for a glimpse of the king when he does arrive here. meanwhile, let's talk about how queen elizabeth always cherished memories of her upbringing in

close—knit and loving family. and she endeavoured to balance the demands of monarchy with the needs of her husband and children. like all familes, there were tensions, but, as our deputy royal correspondent, daniela relph, reports, her devotion to her family was a vital part of her life and reign. and the queen just taking in the scene, taking in the sight. surrounded by herfamily, her majesty the queen. wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother. throughout her reign, she hasjuggled family commitments with the duties of her unique position. we are inside the abbey for the most solemn and dramatic pictures that have ever appeared on the screen. the coronation that changed the course of her life. members of the royal family take their places. the princesses elizabeth

and margaret rose. she wasn't born to be queen. but when she was ten, her uncle edward viii abdicated. the king is crowned. her beloved father was crowned george vi, and she became heir to the throne. crowd: god save the king! god save the king! - the royal home movie collection gave us a glimpse inside family life. her relationship with her parents was warm and loving. the king refused to send his daughters to safety in canada during the war, so they could stay together as much as possible. in 1947, she was allowed to marry prince philip, a love match opposed by some senior palace aides. these are the first newsreel pictures taken since his christening of prince charles, now eight months old. prince charles was born a year later, but her royal duties meant they were apart more than she would have liked. a heady programme of official engagements prevents the princess and the duke from seeing their son

as often as they wish. it is only on occasions like this that they can enjoy the happiness of parenthood. crowd: we want the queen! we want the queen! - at the age ofjust 27, she was crowned queen. and her role as monarch meant taking tough decisions felt by those closest to her. prince philip had to give up his career in the navy, and then a constitutional crisis. upon princess margaret centres worldwide interest. her sister princess margaret had fallen in love with a divorced man, peter townsend. in law, the queen's permission was required for them to marry. but with the church of england and the cabinet opposed, she had to ask margaret to wait. eventually, the romance petered out. it has been nearly five months since the queen has been with her children. although she has kept close contact with them throughout her tour by radio—telephone.

becoming monarch meant more overseas travel, and the separations from her children grew longer. but again, in private, the home movies showed they could be just like any other family. no formality, no public display. motherhood could take priority. and efforts were made to shield the royal children from too much publicity. this was her christmas broadcast in 1958. some of you have written to say that you would like to see our children on television this afternoon. we value your interest in them, and i can assure you that we have thought about this a great deal before deciding against it. we would like our son and daughter to grow up as normally as possible, so that they will be able to serve you and the commonwealth faithfully and well when they are old enough to do so. but public interest was huge. as the family grew, cameras were let in to see how they lived.

although the royal yacht britannia remained a place of escape, annual summer holidays with a trusted crew a precious sanctuary. and as they come to her majesty the queen, they will turn, the prince of wales will bow, the princess of wales will curtsy. but her children's marriages were not as successful as her own. three of them ended in divorce. and in the dreadful aftermath of princess diana's death, she faced the conflict of leading the nation in mourning whilst supporting her son and grandsons in private. it was a deeply unhappy and unsettling time for the queen personally. charles's marriage to camilla parker bowles in 2005 highlighted that tricky balance of being mother and monarch. the queen was at a ceremony to bless the marriage, but as head of the church of england, she did not attend the actual wedding as she had

to uphold its teaching on divorce. in recent years, herfamily life has continued to provide challenges. careful what you wish for. she helped prince harry promote his invictus games... oh, really! ..by teasing president and michelle 0bama. boom! but when her grandson and his wife left for america, as queen, she had to deal with the fallout and remove his military patronages. she was forced to have prince andrew withdrawn from public life, after he settled a court case in america in which he was accused of sexual assault. but milestone birthdays or a jubilee were often moments... just going to interrupt that report because i think we can see prince charles arriving at buckingham palace and the crowds cheering. another warm welcome for the new

king in beautiful september sunshine. driving in his favourite royal vehicle through the gates of buckingham palace. the crowds have been gathering for quite some time, hoping for a glimpse of king charles iii, and they've been rewarded. they were standing there at the barricades for quite some time, waiting, having laid theirfloral tributes to the late queen elizabeth. so king charles back at buckingham palace ahead of a very busy couple of days. of course of the state funeral on monday. but tomorrow a huge reception of heads of state, prime ministers, presidents here in buckingham palace. but let's go live to windsor and join our correspondent the helena wilkinson. it has been busy there, rehearsing for monday's

proceedings, hasn't it? yes, absolutely. in terms of the people coming we have been here all week and it is absolutely extraordinary to see the number of people who are continuing to arrive. it is saturday, of course, the weekend before the queen's funeral. so lots of people will want to be here. i suspect we might see people trying to get a space right at the front of the barriers because this is where, after the state funeral in central london, the queen's state hearse will be brought. we will give you a sense of what we are seeing here. the position where we are at the moment, be hunters, cambridge gates, at the top of the long walk at windsor castle. have a look around us, the number of people bringing flowers here, laying them outside cambridge gates. but on monday afternoon if we show you the scene just down the long walk there, about a mile down that is where we will see the queen's state hearse

being brought up slowly. they will being brought up slowly. they will be around 1000 military personnel who will take part in that service. as you mentioned, then, there was a rehearsal in the early hours of this morning. it was all very quiet here. but the military personnel who will be taking part, they practised this morning here, and of course they will be trying to get everything as perfect as possible. a major operation. what we saw this morning here during that rehearsal was the hearse which will be brought up the long walk. there was a practice of the guard of honour. and as the state hearse came up the long walk here, sailors, military personnel, they bowed their heads. i think on monday it will be a particularly poignant moment as the queen's state hearse makes thatjourney along the long walk, a finaljourney for the

queen before it enters the grounds of windsor castle. we have been speaking to people who knew the queen, who worked for the queen, and locals here, because it will be their opportunity on monday to say goodbye. this was the day the people of windsor were formally told they had a new monarch. bless the royal princess elizabeth ii. but the queen's special relationship with this town began before she came to the throne. in wishing you all good evening, i feel that i am speaking to friends and companions. when she was 14, she made herfirst address from windsor castle to children during the second world war. she was involved in other formal duties from a young age. but it was windsor great park where she found freedom and where her love for

the countryside grew. it was where she learned to ride. her majesty's left an amazing legacy across the park. paul sedgwick is a deputy ranger of windsor great park, and knew the queen well. i think at that time, there was great freedom to ride around on her horse, or her pony, exploring the great expanses of the park, the ancient trees, the parkland. in 1952, the queen made her husband, prince philip, park ranger. together they helped protect and preserve the park. the avenues, the trees, the reintroduction of the red deer, the expansion of the gardens, the formal gardens, continues nearly 1,000 years of royal patronage at windsor. we know that the queen loved windsor great park. tell us, then, what it was about these gardens that she loved so much? we're in the goldenjubilee garden,

at the savill garden, which her majesty opened injuly 2002. it is one of three main gardens at windsor — the valley gardens, the savill garden and frogmore garden. coming out to the gardens, at windsor, during covid, when her majesty was in residence in the castle, every friday morning we would send a fresh bouquet of flowers from one of the three gardens, to windsor castle, for the queen. the queen's legacy is all around the park, and in the town of windsor, too, her presence is felt. from the windsor ladies statue of queen elizabeth with her corgis, to one of two windsor greys who draw carriages on state occasions, from the queen's walkway self—guided tour, taking in the windsor guildhall and its magnificent portraits, to the books of condolence in the town's churches.

at the king george vi centre, opened by the queen in 1958, they remember her last visit five years ago. royalty is, you know, it's special, to everybody throughout the world. and it's been a real honour to have lived here. so it was the queen who made us come to windsor, and we've been happy here through all these years, you know. so, thank you, queen! here they feel a sense of pride. their pride is shared in and around this town. sayonara luxton is the former mayor of windsor. what did windsor mean to the queen, and how special was that connection with her? the queen was the pillar of windsor. for the people of windsor, there was nothing else but the queen. she was the pillar of windsor.

she brought the community together, she brought us all together. - we had a meaning. it was so special to have her, - to be here in the borough with her. where else more would - you want to be in the world other than in this area? windsor will be the queen's final resting place. on monday, the world will watch as a state hearse makes its way along the long walk up to the castle, one finaljourney. for people who live in this town, it will be a deeply personal moment, saying goodbye to the queen, who was their neighbour, and part of their community. helena wilkinson, bbc news, windsor. and as the queen's state hearse is slowly brought along the long walk here it will go through those gates which will be open, of course. you can see so many people there laying

flowers. what you cannot see at the moment is behind those gates on either side, a carpet of flowers. those flowers are the ones that the members of the public have left throughout the week, tens of thousands of them, and staff here throughout the night every night have been taking the flowers from outside cambridge gate, very carefully laying them on the other side of the cambridge gate, and it is fitting and a beautiful thing they are doing because that is where they are doing because that is where the queen's state hearse will move through the carpet of flowers either side as the state hearse is then taken to saint george's chapel where the committal service will take place on monday afternoon. then. helena, thank you very much indeed for that. helena, thank you very much indeed forthat. here helena, thank you very much indeed for that. here at buckingham palace we just saw in the last few minutes king charles arriving, and is now their inside buckingham palace preparing no doubt for monday's

state funeral, but also preparing for that meeting tomorrow where all the official guests who will be at the official guests who will be at the funeral will be hosted by king charles and the queen consort at a reception, presidents, prime ministers, heads of state, members of other royalfamilies ministers, heads of state, members of other royal families from around the world will be here at buckingham palace. meanwhile, people heading to london have been told to prepare for unprecedented demand on public transport as thousands travel to the capital to pay their respects to the late queen. jayne mccubbin has been to meet some of those making the trip to the capital. this is an exodus. ok, so have we all been to the toilet? yes! one last call for- the 12:30 to london! hundreds of thousands of people are on the move, all heading to the capital, all with one purpose. in sandbach service station on the m6, we go in search

of those in a pilgrimage, and we find leslie. there's only 2,000 people going to the funeral, and you will be one of the 2,000? i can't believe it, i've been invited. it's still in a bit of shock. i was on the way back from ikea on sunday and all of a sudden i get this call from the cabinet office, in the car, saying that in recognition of my recent award of mbe — because i hadn't been invested yet, didn't go to an investiture — would i like to attend the funeral, on the 19th? and ijust can't believe it, to be honest with you. i'm just absolutely blown away. in rugby, the richmond family have taken the kids out of school early to drive to london to lay flowers for the queen. you're ready to go, aren't you? this is our rainbow that we made, isn't it, for the queen? yes... willow was quite affected by it. she was very taken with the queen and her handbags and her dresses. you wanted the kids to be a part of this moment? we wanted them to be a part of this, yeah. so you made a rainbow, didn't you,

of all her favourite things. what have we got? the crown. the crown and the teacups and her lovely philip. i'm happy and sad and i'm excited to go and see the queen. she... i'll try not to cry. she was just the great nan of the nation, really. while the richmonds set off by car, ticket sales are up across the country. national express say their london sales are up 40% this week. have you brought any food? i've got a bottle of water. that's it? barbara from salford is travelling alone and she is travelling light. how long do you plan on going for, barbara? as long as it takes. show us your bag.

this is all she has packed. this is instead of a hotel room in london! yes, it is. laughs. i think i need to go and see her. i need to walk past. i have been crying for days. never been to london before so it's a new adventure. if i didn't make this journey, i'd be always wondering in the back of my mind, i should have gone, i should have done it. where are we off to today, somewhere nice? to see the queen. ooh, lovely. i need to do it. for me. there will be grief, but for barbara, the shared experience of heading to the capital promises more: friendship and unity. and this is what propels these lifelong friends from manchester to london. we are going to see abba, and then straight from abba

we are going to join the queues and pay our respect to the queen. i don't see it as a sad thing. after covid... everybody was lonely and this happened, everybody coming together. i see it as a celebration. here at buckingham palace, people have come together and they have been rewarded with a glimpse of the new king in the last few minutes, he arrived back here at buckingham palace. let's bring you up—to—date with the queue, for people who want to see the queen lying in state in westminster hall. we are told on the government website, it is now 16 hours, that queue. at one stage it was 25 hours, an extraordinary amount of time for people to wait but it does not seem to have deterred people. it is now 16 hours and they are queueing in pretty warm sunshine, i have to say. the weather has been relatively kind to them, it

was chilly overnight but it is warm today. there is no sign of any rain so that is good news. let's show you the scene live in westminster hall as people filed past the late queen's coffin. last night, the queen's coffin. last night, the queen's children stood vigil at the coffin. tonight later on this evening it will be the turn of the late queen's grandchildren and prince william will stand vigil at the head of the coffin. and prince harry at the foot of the coffin. prince harry, by the way, will be wearing military uniform, he has had special dispensation, despite having stepped back as a working royal, the king has given him special dispensation as a final tribute to the late queen to wear military uniform. that's all from me, now it's back to the studio. thank you, more from ben brown in

the next hour. scotland and in particular royal balmoral held a special significance for the queen. having had the opportunity to pay their respects in person in edinburgh, people in the country are now preparing to bid a final farewell to a beloved monarch, as conor gilles reports. bagpipes skirl. high in the hills above balmoral, a lone piper�*s lament for a local. a solemn song for a much—missed monarch. she was a big part of the community. we recentlyjust played for her a couple of weeks ago, four, five weeks ago, so it was really a great honour to do that.

i think we would probably be the last band that would have played for her. over the decades, the queen spent many a day, many a summer here at her beloved balmoral castle. a place to relax, a place where it's said she could leave her crown at the gates. and this in 1969, captured in the community, filmed buying prince edward an ice cream with her own money. this is all i've got. just as the queen was always part of their lives here in royal deeside, they too are intertwined in this journey on her death. and while the ceremonial crescendo comes in london for the funeral on monday, here, a sober, silent, subtle moment is planned. no pomp, no ceremony, because after all, she, elizabeth ii, was seen here as one of their own. yes, it's a very special place in the village. striking the right tone important

from david who's lived here since he was born. this is a very personal occasion. many people have said to me that it always feels as though they've lost a member of theirfamily, it's that close a connection, and i feel that they probably want to be at home perhaps on monday with their own families, watching the footage of the funeral and maybe reminiscing. having said that, we will mark the moment of reflection on sunday evening at 8pm, whether it will be a moment's silence here outside the church, and hopefully the people in the village will have the opportunity to come and stand with us and remember the queen at that very poignant moment. down the coast in the aberdeenshire fishing village of gourdon, a different take. at the pub, johnny will be showing proceedings on the screens — a community event with a spread of food. it is most definitely a wake.

it's no way can you term it as a celebration. people will be coming in, there won't be any music or anything on apart from that, which is accompanying, it's like the tv service. yeah, it's a large wake and we're just inviting locals to come in and take part in this experience, because no—one really, in the last 70 years, has experienced anything like this, so it's going to be something new for all of us. we also had the queen attend the cathedral on several occasions. she would attend often for national events. tales of times gone by here at what's thought to be scotland's biggest cathedral. we come to this significant pew in the cathedral, and in some senses it's more of a throne than a pew, because this is where her majesty the queen would sit. this, the queen and prince philip here a decade ago celebrating her diamond jubilee. and now, this is a place planning its own special service before her majesty is laid to rest. we were conscious of the fact that there were many things happening in many places,

but we thought that it was important to have a period and a time of preparation. so on sunday evening at 7:00 here in glasgow cathedral, we're going to have a service of preparation. back in balmoral, the land she loved. the people here with a personal, unique royal perspective. a connection that will never fade in life or death. conor gillies, bbc news. so many people will have different thoughts about monday, different ways they may or may not want to look and follow everything throughout the day throughout the queen's funeral. we will of course have full coverage on bbc news and we have seen and are continuing to watch the enormous numbers of people still coming to the capital, joining that queue. about 2000 people and

our art per that queue. about 2000 people and ourart per hourare that queue. about 2000 people and our art per hour arejoining the queue, that is the latest information. the current waiting time to view and take part in the lying in state is we are told 16 hours. if you are wanting to queue, if you are able to get to the capital to do that, the weather is very important to your decision, perhaps, as to whether to take part. the weather is important wherever you are in the country, let's get the round—up. hello. it has been a chilly start to the day. cold enough even for a few patches of frost, but otherwise lots of morning sunshine. that's how we started the day in newcastle. however, in twickenham, one of our early morning weather watchers photographed this steam fog. that is where the warm, moist air from the lake mixes with surrounding cooler air to create this layer of fog just on the water's surface. now, for most of you, it will be dry

throughout the day today. we do have some showers running in across northern scotland and coming down our north sea coast. so, you could see one or two grazing north yorkshire, the coastline of east yorkshire, lincolnshire, norfolk and suffolk, and the showers will continue on and off through the day in northern scotland. it does turn a little bit cloudy for a time in the early part of the afternoon, but for many, we will keep those spells of sunshine going all day. temperatures after that chilly start around 14 to 18 celsius, and for the queen's lying—in—state, it is going to be a dry day today. a bit more cloud to come tomorrow, and there is a small chance of seeing an odd passing shower, particularly late afternoon or early evening time. on saturday evening, saturday night time, we will see a few more showers coming and going across scotland, perhaps a bit more cloud here, a few mist and fog patches, but otherwise, clear spells and another chilly night. temperatures dipping into single figures in the towns and cities, but cold in the countryside. temperatures low single figures to start the day on sunday. so, another chilly start. for many, though, it is another

bright day on the cards with further spells of sunshine. a bit more cloud for scotland and northern england where there will be a few showers, and i think there is a greater chance of some showers coming down the north sea to affect eastern england. so, you might see some of those into east anglia and south east england, on and off throughout the day. into next week, high pressure continues to affect the weather across england and wales, but we will have some weather fronts and strengthening winds later in the week across the north west of the uk. monday's weather, then. again, there could be a few morning mist and fog patches, but for most of you it is another dry day with some further spells of sunshine. but a bit more cloud around generally, and there is a greater chance of some showers for western scotland, perhaps running as far south as cumbria. temperatures, given the cloudier skies, a little bit higher, 17 or 18 celsius or so. still a lot of dry weather to come in the week ahead, but by thursday, the winds pick up across western areas and we will start to see some rain arriving as well.

goodbye.

welcome to bbc news, i am ben brown live at buckingham palace where people continue to lay floral tributes for the late queen elizabeth. the queue to see the queen lie in state at westminster hall grows with warnings that could be wait times of elyse 24 hours. rehearsals for the state funeral procession at windsor have been taking place with some of the precise details overseen by the monarch before her death. i'mjane hill, in the other monarch before her death. i'm jane hill, in the other day's news, ukraine's president says investigations are under way into possible russian war crimes in the north—eastern city of izyum. more than 400 bodies are being exhumed

from a burial site. at least ten people have been killed in italy after heavy rains and flooding hits the central region of marche. and also this hour, india's prime minister releases eight cheaters into a national park. 70 years after the world's fastest land animal was declared extinct in the country —— cheetahs. hello from buckingham palace where it is a beautiful day, a really glorious autumn day, bright skies, blue skies, sunshine and large numbers of people at buckingham palace leaving floral tributes for the late queen elizabeth, and also

they were rewarded with a glimpse of they were rewarded with a glimpse of the new king, king charles, as he arrived at buckingham palace in the last few minutes. we saw his vehicle and a couple of other vehicles, part of the motorcade coming into the palace, and quite a crowd behind the barricades with a big cheer for the king. world leaders will begin gathering in london from today for the state funeral of queen elizabeth on monday. members of the public are still queueing in their thousands to view her coffin in westminster hall. the wait time reached 25 hours during the night and people are being advised not to travel to join it. the last we heard, the queueing time was about 16 hours. meanwhile, a man's been arrested following a disturbance in westminster hall at around 10 o'clock last night. it's reported he rushed towards the late queen's coffin before being taken into custody. later today the queen's

grandchildren will stand guard around her coffin. yesterday, the king, the duke of york, the princess royal and the earl of wessex, held their own vigil in the hall. we can bring this report from danjohnson for you now. king's guard strikes floor three times. the sound that signals the change of watch called forward the four people who know best the queen's life and character. her children charles, anne, edward and andrew. all of them in uniform, taking their place in silent vigil, lasting almost 15 minutes. surreal, absolutely surreal. loads of respect, just so glad we waited 12 hours, just for that two or three minutes. amazing. and it wasn't just the queen's coffin, you got to see... we did! how humbling is that? we got to see the whole family, absolutely amazing. _

a very emotional moment, and thatjust added to the whole afternoon, evening. unbelievable. she is the only female we have ever had and will ever have on our planet that is known by everybody in the world, from the smallest island to the largest area on our planet. she isjust the only one, our queen. and that, to me, fills me with immense pride. meanwhile, the queue kept snaking through the night. everybody has remarked on how well—organised things have been and what a nice, positive, friendly attitude there is among the crowd. the temperature is dropping and the wait times are now up as much as 24 hours, but i don't get the sense anybody is going to be giving up. the day started with a visit to wales.

the last piece of our national jigsaw for the new king's tour, his first time here as monarch, though as prince of wales for so long, he is closely associated with this land and its people. while the majority cheered, there were some jeers. crowd boos but the king acutely is aware of the distinct identity here, including the welsh language. through all the years of her reign, the land of wales could not have been closer to my mother's heart. roedd lle arbennig i gymru yn ei chalon. the new prince and princess of wales were meeting new zealand troops and others from the commonwealth, who will be taking part in monday's state funeral. the military�*s busy making sure

everyone is in step. around 4,000 armed forces personnel will be involved. she is, she has been, the integral part of the armed forces. the glue between the tri—services. and for me, just to pay one small bit of respect by doing this duty, i can't measure how prideful i feel about that, how humbled to have the opportunity to do that. last night a man was arrested in westminster hall after a disturbance a couple of hours after the royals left. there are reports he ran forward and touched the queen's coffin. this has been a place of quiet calm and focused thoughts, from so many who have stepped up on behalf of their country in bad times or in good. david beckham queued for 12 hours, and he picked up on the sense of generational change felt by so many here.

i grew up in a family that were all royalists. i think back to my grandparents, because if my grandparents were alive, they would have been here, so it's nice to be here to celebrate with everybody, you know, the life of her majesty and the legacy that she has left. the king's vigil lasted just a few solemn minutes. a new monarch watching over the old, a son's silent tribute. king's guard strikes floor three times. and this evening, the queen's grandchildren will take their turn here, standing guard in protection and in mourning. danjohnson, bbc news, westminster. of course, people are continuing to

pour through westminster hall to pay their final respects to the queen lying in state. in the last hour foreign secretary james cleverly and his wife have been among them immediately after the state funeral on monday he will host a reception for guests at a nearby church house as members of the royal family head to windsorfor the as members of the royal family head to windsor for the queen's burial. we are hearing around 2000 people in ourjoining the queue in southwark park. the weight at the moment, we are told, is 16 hours, so it is down are told, is 16 hours, so it is down a little bit on the peak of 25 hours. let's go to lauren moss who is in southwark park at the end of the queue. at least it is beautiful weather for people to queue in. the queue. at least it is beautiful weatherfor people to queue in. hi. weather for people to queue in. hi. yes, it is weather for people to queue in. f1. yes, it is now, this morning when i arrived at five o'clock it was very chilly, it was a very chilly start for peoplejoining the chilly, it was a very chilly start for people joining the queue then, very chilly for those who had been in the queue overnight as well. like you say, we are being told that is

around a 16 hour wait. i'm in southwark park, and you can't get the scale of how big it is but it is divided into four zones and when all of those zones are full to capacity we are told the queueing might be paused, so everyone is very much watching to see whether that will happen. when i got my wristband this morning, when ijoined the line, when i came in, i've now been speaking to other people and looked at their wristbands, there are around 20,000 — 30,000 people, looking at rudimentary maths, who have passed through since i got here earlier today. have passed through since i got here earliertoday. i've have passed through since i got here earlier today. i've been chatting to some of those in the queue, the of families and people travelling from far and wide, from yorkshire, coventry, i spoke to a man who had come from belgium. lots of families. and although people were feeling sombre and wanting to pay their respects to the queen in westminster hall lying in state, there is also a feeling ofjoviality, they are making friends, sharing snacks, and making friends, sharing snacks, and making friends, sharing snacks, and making friends with each other. i'm joined by a family who have come overfrom harlow. just joined by a family who have come over from harlow. just tell me your

route along the thames path in bermondsey that have gone downstairs with a table and a large kettle and are giving people tea and coffee. everything very much still moving here this morning. like i said, if the park gets full to capacity, southwark park, the queue may be paused to make sure everybody can get through to westminster hall. we will keep you posted. lauren, it is very well organised. it is interesting people are not being deterred by the length of the weight. if you want to know, you can check the government website which is showing the length of the queue. it is currently 16 hours, as you can see, up to 16 hours. that's down, as lauren said, from the high point of 25 hours. so a little bit quicker thanit 25 hours. so a little bit quicker than it was. so lots of people there waiting to see the queen lying in state. lots of people here at buckingham palace as well where the king arrived a short time ago. and also lots of people at windsor. our

correspondent helena wilkinson is there with some of them. it is quite extraordinary, really, to see the number of people, and we have been here in windsor all week, who are coming here to windsor castle. we are at the top end of the long walk, cambridge gate, and this is where the focus has been for people to come and leave flowers. and today they are coming in big numbers. wejust spoke and today they are coming in big numbers. we just spoke to an official, actually, who told us they expect up to 100,000 people to be on this long walk here today. let's give you a sense of what we are seeing here around us. you can see, as i say, notjust local people, not just people from the uk, but also we have spoken to people who have come from right across the world especially to be here for this event on monday, but also to be here for the week. we know the funeral is taking place, the state funeral, monday, but it is here in windsor

where the state hearse will be brought after the funeral for a committal service in saint george's chapel. look down the long walk. you can see the number of people who are coming up here to the top where we are to lay flowers. this morning there was a rehearsal. because it is about a mile away on monday afternoon just about dumbing after three o'clock the queen's state hearse will travel slowly along the long walk —— just after three o'clock. tens of thousands of people will line the long walk. earlier this morning there was a practice with the military who will be taking part, playing their important role in the procession here on monday afternoon. they practised a guard of honour that will escort the outside of the state hearse. this morning in

the early hours as that went along, the early hours as that went along, the vehicle went along the long walk, the sailors, the army and military personnel bowed their heads as it moved along the long walk here. on monday it will go through those gates, cambridge gates, which will of course be open. and it will pass a carpet of flowers either side. these flowers, and it has been in operation for the staff here, the flowers that have been left outside cambridge gates throughout the week, staff every evening have been very carefully moving them to the other side of cambridge gate and laying them down very carefully. that's the route which the state hearse will take on monday afternoon. then there will be a committal service in saint george's chapel within the grounds of windsor castle, and after that there will be a private service for members of the royal family when the queen will be buried alongside her

late husband, the duke of edinburgh. but here in windsor are a huge number of people once again here today wanting to be part of this moment, and i think we will also see some of these people staying here over the weekend to be here on monday. over the weekend to be here on monda . . ~ over the weekend to be here on monda . . ,, i. over the weekend to be here on monda . . ~' ,, , over the weekend to be here on monda . . ,, i. , . monday. thank you very much indeed. let's show you — monday. thank you very much indeed. let's show you some _ monday. thank you very much indeed. let's show you some pictures - monday. thank you very much indeed. let's show you some pictures we - monday. thank you very much indeed. let's show you some pictures we have | let's show you some pictures we have of the rehearsals for the queen's state funeral on monday. let's have a look at those now. these are pictures of military representatives, practising movements outside windsor castle, west of london. the queen's coffin will be taken there after monday's funeral at westminster abbey. it will then be laid in the royal vault at windsor, beside the queen's husband, the late duke of edinburgh, who died in april 2021. at windsor barracks, the armed forces participating in the procession have practiced

for the first time as one. particularly on this occasion, everyone wants to do their level best to give the queen the most fitting, appropriate send—off that we can. and there's a real vibe around camp at the moment, people really puffing out their chests, wanting to do their level best for the queen, for herfinal send—off. we will be looking our absolute sharpest. the met police has called the queen's funeral its largest—ever operation. the like of which may never be seen again in terms of the sheer scale of that as a policing operation. joining me now is general sir richard barrons, former head of the uk's joint forces command. thank you very much indeed, we were going to be reminiscing a little bit about the late queen with us. tell us as a military man, how important

was it for you that the queen was commander in chief, in a sense, that was where your loyalty was, she was wear your loyalty was, not the government or prime minister of the day, but to the queen?— day, but to the queen? that's absolutely _ day, but to the queen? that's absolutely the _ day, but to the queen? that's absolutely the vital _ day, but to the queen? that's absolutely the vital point. - day, but to the queen? that's absolutely the vital point. as. day, but to the queen? that's| absolutely the vital point. as a serving military officer, it's essential that you accept, the military should not decide on which was to have but you want to be above the political day—to—day race. the constitutional link between the armed forces and their constitutional commander—in—chief the sovereign is really important to see that the armed forces see them sales are not part of politics and servants of the nation. we sales are not part of politics and servants of the nation.— sales are not part of politics and servants of the nation. we are 'ust seeinr servants of the nation. we are 'ust seeing some fl servants of the nation. we are 'ust seeing some pictures i servants of the nation. we are 'ust seeing some pictures of i servants of the nation. we are 'ust seeing some pictures of the h servants of the nation. we are justj seeing some pictures of the queen unveiling a bust, you have got an extraordinary story because it all went a little bit wrong? actually, on the day. _ went a little bit wrong? actually, on the day. it _ went a little bit wrong? actually, on the day, it turned _ went a little bit wrong? actually, on the day, it turned out - went a little bit wrong? actually, on the day, it turned out well, i went a little bit wrong? actually, i on the day, it turned out well, this

was the unveiling of a bust of her majesty who had served as the captain general of the honourable artillery company, the oldest regiment in the british army. she came to visit the regiment at its home in the city of london and came to unveil a bust which at that stage had not been cast in bronze, and it is now it is magnificent. rather unfortunately in the rehearsal of the unveiling, a little bit of over exuberance from the soldiers who were removing the cover over the statue, pulled it off of the plinth and it fell on the ground and broke. the artist was on hand, saw this, and with a lot of help, worked at great speed to repair itjust in time and repaid it, get it back on the plinth. we didn't know quite what we were going to see when the cover came off when her majesty removed the cover. i thought it prudent to tell her what had happened, and cross every finger and toe that we had and we were after

all in front of 1000 devoted followers of the honourable artillery company. fortunately, when it was unveiled, it was in one piece. and we got away with it. and the queen found the whole thing frankly hilarious. because we had got it right and we had fixed it. i think if we had not had fix it, we would have had a different day and we had all been sacked, quite rightly! but on the day it was ok. your heart must have sunk when you heard that news, though! yes. heard that news, though! yes, honestly! _ heard that news, though! yes, honestly! i _ heard that news, though! yes, honestly! i had _ heard that news, though! yes, honestly! i had to _ heard that news, though! yes, honestly! i had to have - heard that news, though! yes, honestly! i had to have two - honestly! i had to have two speeches, want to say, thank you for unveiling this mass, and the other to say, sorry, it is broken. she was clearly not going to come back when we fixed it. so i slept well that night! we fixed it. so i slept well that niuht! ,, . , . . night! she was, i gather, an absolute _ night! she was, i gather, an absolute expert _ night! she was, i gather, an absolute expert in _ night! she was, i gather, an absolute expert in all - night! she was, i gather, an absolute expert in all things! absolute expert in all things military, especially uniform? yes.

she would know the difference between the width of a red stripe on a senior officer's trousers and a junior officer's trousers, and you would know if you got found out, she wouldn't say anything but my goodness, you would know. we have all been reflecting _ goodness, you would know. we have all been reflecting on _ goodness, you would know. we have all been reflecting on the _ goodness, you would know. we have all been reflecting on the last - goodness, you would know. we have all been reflecting on the last few . all been reflecting on the last few days about what the queen and her long reign meant for the country, we have seen this incredible outpouring of grief and these cues to see the coffin lying in state in westminster hall. what are your personal recollections on the credo which meant the country? the recollections on the credo which meant the country?— recollections on the credo which meant the country? the armed forces should recognise _ meant the country? the armed forces should recognise that _ meant the country? the armed forces should recognise that we _ meant the country? the armed forces should recognise that we had - meant the country? the armed forces should recognise that we had the - should recognise that we had the same commander in chief for 70 years, and she was the constitutional and ceremonial and official head of the armed forces and became an institution and it became difficult for a while to imagine her not being there. in fact the armed forces will understand

that their role is to provide some safety and opportunity as it is for the monarch. we will transfer into the monarch. we will transfer into the new sovereign and we will march on to what looks like a quite difficult world. three times as many people who are in the armed forces are queueing to have their few moments in front of the coffin so it is notjust the armed forces who think this is an important moment. thank you for sharing your thoughts and reflections with us. let's show you some aerial pictures of the queue for westminster hall right now, snaking along the river thames. and we are told now that although the queue was at one stage 24 hours, 25 hours, it has now gone down to 16 hours, the last we heard from the government website. it is moving a little bit more quickly and still people are coming to pay their last

respects in westminster hall where the queen's coffin is lying in state. that is it from buckingham palace where king charles is here, he arrived here in the last hour, to cheers from the crowd. he is preparing for that official reception tomorrow for the guests for the queen's funeral on monday. prime ministers, presidents, heads of state will be here at buckingham palace tomorrow for that reception hosted by king charles, the queen consort and other working members of the royal family. that's it for now from buckingham palace, back to you in the studio, jane. thank you, ben brown, much more to come. in the rest of the day's news — ukraine's president zelensky has

bodies are being exhumed from a mass grave in the west of the city of izyum which was recently re—taken from russian forces. authorities say that more hundred 400 people are buried there. ukrainian officials say more than 440 people are buried there, and that most are civilians who met with violent death. our correspondent hugo bachega in kyiv as more on the war crimes investigation. investigators have returned to this forest outside the city of izyum, where this mass burial site has been found. yesterday, the first bodies were exhumed, and officials say the bodies of civilians have been recovered, some of them had signs that they had been tortured and some others were believed to have died as a result of russian air strikes and shelling. officials say that in one of the graves, they found the bodies of around 20 ukrainian soldiers. last night, president zelensky said the russians had repeated in izyum what they had done in bucha, and i think we all remember

the shocking scenes of bodies in mass graves being found in bucha in the early stages of the war. so a long road ahead for investigators as they try to identify the victims and establish what has happened in izyum, which was one of the cities under russian occupation that has been liberated in the north—east country as part of this ukrainian counteroffensive. the ukrainian foreign minister dmytro kuleba said, the graves found in izyum are proof of horrendous war crimes committed by the russians, and that ukraine needed more weapons to take back territory and save lives. the us presidentjoe biden has warned russia not to use chemical or tactical weapons in the war with ukraine. mr biden said the action

says it will investigate whether race was a factor in the fatal shooting of a unarmed black man in south london. chris kaba, who was 24, was killed after a police car chase in streatham earlier this month. the firearms officer who shot him has been suspended from duty. chris kaba's family has accused the metropolitan police of racism. the white house says it's deeply concerned by the death of a young iranian woman who died after being arrested by iran's morality police. president biden's national security advisor, jake sullivan, described the incident as "unforgiveable". mahsa amini, who was 22, died after being detained in tehran for allegedly violating the islamic republic�*s strict dress code for women.

heads of state and foreign dignitaries from around the world will attend the queen's funeral on monday. and they will be joined by a cowboy from california. monty roberts is famous for his non—violent horse training, a method that impressed the queen and formed the basis of a decades long friendship. the bbc�*s reagan morris met monty at his ranch before he left for the uk. member of the victorian order, a knighthood, a cowboy from california gets a knighthood. can you believe it? and this was given to me in her office, not outside with the top hat and tails and all that stuff. in her office, very personally. he loves to run — like that. her majesty's in a meeting in northern ireland with politicians there, and she won't be able to take your call. and i said, that's ok, just tell me when i should call

back, then, and then i heard, "monty, how are you?" "your majesty! they told me you couldn't take the call." "no," she said. "they probably told you i was in a meeting with important people. and your calls are more important to me than anything, so i came out of the meeting and took the call." i almost fell off the phone. i couldn't believe it. i've never been received by people like that in my life. there's letters in here and christmas cards in here. here's one from the military in england and the central intelligence agency in the united states. the queen up here with her family and herfavourite group of horses. prince philip and the queen here. and letters that were written, and to be sure, with some integrity, because she wrote

this letter and she addressed the envelope, too. but in order to save a bit of loose change she wrote on the back of the stationery. i'm sorry for me, i'm sorry for the world, i'm sorry for the family. she was just a wonderful person that just shouldn't have died ever. i know it has to happen but ijust loved her so much. monty roberts talking at his ranch in california, one of the thousands of people perhaps making their way to the uk now. the other thing we are keeping an eye on is

of the uk and the world. the access to the queue, the latest reports on the youtube page the government has up the youtube page the government has up and running is the queue time is about 16 hours if you arejoining now. the people waiting who have been waiting 13 hours, butjoining it now 16 hours. that is a lot better than it was first thing this morning when the kuwait estimated time was over 24 hours. the authorities were saying the queue has reached capacity, or is near total capacity, and do not travel down to the queue because there is a chance you might not get in. and that would be a problem. but there is going to be a point in the next day or so when those managing the queue are going to have to make the decision to close it in order to enable everybody who is already in the queue to make it through before 6:30am on monday morning before the funeral when the official lying—in—state for the queen ends at that time. so it is going to be quite an anxiousjourney

that time. so it is going to be quite an anxious journey and an anxious wait for many people, people on their way to london to perhaps try tojoin. whether they on their way to london to perhaps try to join. whether they will make it through or not, we are seeing huge numbers of people arrive in london on the morning trains. back to you in the studio.— london on the morning trains. back to you in the studio. karin giannone there. some delightful people we heard from client although school children who had queued through the night. it was very cold overnight, lovely and sunny now but it was not like that at two o'clock and three o'clock in the morning. lots of people smiling and waving, remarkable cheerfulness perhaps as they think they are not too far away now from attending the queen's lying—in—state. the waiting time currently 16 hours as we currently look at that. we are keeping an eye on that but of course let's turn our attentions to kenya because a memorial has taken place in kenya at a church that the then princess elizabeth visited just a matter of days before she became queen, because after her visitjust a few days later her father king

george vi died and she became queen. i deputy africa editor anne soy is outside that church for us this afternoon. thank you forjoining us. explain what has been happening today. well, we have witnessed this memorial service here, something very specialfor the memorial service here, something very special for the people memorial service here, something very specialfor the people here memorial service here, something very special for the people here who live in naro moru in the foothills of mount kenya. it is here that the queen attended her last sunday service as princess on the 2nd of february 1952. service as princess on the 2nd of february1952. unknown service as princess on the 2nd of february 1952. unknown to her while she was a short distance away at the treetops lodge her father she was a short distance away at the treetops lodge herfather died, and so she became queen. the church was filled this morning, they had to get extra seats for people to just come and experience that moment. they feel a special connection to the

queen. there are memorabilia inside the church that remind them of that connection, her coat of arms, and a piece of the carpet on which she walked down westminster abbey during her coronation. we understand that she ordered for it to be cut and sent to this church. so that tells you that it was something special for her as well.— for her as well. doesn't it. my goodness- _ for her as well. doesn't it. my goodness. and _ for her as well. doesn't it. my goodness. and give _ for her as well. doesn't it. my goodness. and give us i for her as well. doesn't it. my goodness. and give us a - for her as well. doesn't it. my i goodness. and give us a sense, for her as well. doesn't it. my - goodness. and give us a sense, you have talked so beautifully about the connection there, give us a sense of more broadly the extent to which everything we are witnessing here in the uk is being followed in kenya. i appreciate it is an enormous generalisation, but what is your sense? what have people been saying about the death of this country's longest reigning monarch? leaders have aid longest reigning monarch? leaders have paid their— longest reigning monarch? leaders have paid their tributes. _ longest reigning monarch? leaders have paid their tributes. there - longest reigning monarch? leaders have paid their tributes. there is i longest reigning monarch? leaders have paid their tributes. there is a | have paid their tributes. there is a very strong relationship between kenya and the british government,

and the british royalfamily. you will remember there are many things that have happened here in kenya. for instance, prince william coming to propose to his now wife here in kenya. 50 these special connections have been remembered during this time. but here in central kenya people have also been reflecting on that difficult chapter in history. it was around that time in the 505, going into the 60s, that an uprising was starting, especially here in central kenya, that led up to independence. the queen at that time played an important role through that transition. people have been appreciating that, notjust here in kenya, i spoke to the president of malawi earlier and he was reflecting on that as well. he said thanks to her leadership they were able to transition, she will still head of state for malawi for two years after they got independence, and then to a

republic. and even as they embraced becoming republics, this anglophone countries still joined becoming republics, this anglophone countries stilljoined the commonwealth and have remained in the commonwealth. and therefore, she managed to go through a difficult time in history but still kept those countries that had a strong historical relationship with britain together. historical relationship with britain touether. �* . ~' historical relationship with britain touether. �* ., ~ historical relationship with britain touether. �* ., together. anne soy, thank you so much. together. anne soy, thank you so much- anne _ together. anne soy, thank you so much. anne soy _ together. anne soy, thank you so much. anne soy following - together. anne soy, thank you so much. anne soy following that. much. anne soy following that special service there in kenya. as the queen lies—in—state, those who met her during her reign are reflecting on their interactions with the monarch. that includes worshipers from a hindu temple in bradford in england — which was opened and visited by queen elizabeth in 2007. the bbc�*s south asia diaspora reporter, gaggan sabherwal, has been speaking with those who were there. this is the shree lakshmi narayan hindu temple in bradford,

which is one of the largest temples in the north of england and attracts thousands of worshippers every year. and this £3 million temple is also one of the very few places of worship that was inaugurated by queen elizabeth ii. these are the photos which were taken on 24th of may 2007 when her majesty the queen and the duke of edinburgh came. inside there was about 400—500 people. outside there were nearly 1,000 people. this is the worship hall which was inaugurated by her majesty the queen. on that day we created a makeshift temple for the day because we didn't have all these idols there. but the queen really enjoyed watching all these decorated idols because it was something new for her. but we did explain to her majesty, you know, who these deities are, and she was very interested to know all the individual deities which have been installed. she was very happy to see them.

she was very respectful to all the deities. she stood there, bowed her head, and then she inquired about the significance of the prayer. we found it amazing, you know? i think she had really good knowledge about hinduism but still she wanted to explore more, which was really nice and everybody liked the way she came across. applause. most of the people had a photograph with her majesty the queen and they all made their pictures and they've still got them in their home and show people that her majesty came here, we saw her not from a great distance and she stood every few yards to talk to the people. so this cannot be described in words. but it was an amazing experience. the visit by the late queen and her husband, prince philip, is something the community here in bradford to say they will never forget. special day for my life, and not me only, every member of our society and hindus who are here, 300 persons and there were _

many with the national flag, england, so we feel very proud, and she was so humble, so nicely speaking. there are so many people i remember waiting outside because the _ hall could only accommodate a certain number of people. i so people were queueing up outside, they were . and we all dressed up. in our beautiful clothes. i was wearing my red colour sari. my children were all dressed up. all their friends - were here, my husband was here. it was an amazing momentj for us because we've never experienced this before. gaggan sabherwal, bbc news, bradford. services have been taking place ever since the queen's death was

announced. let's talk to someone who attended eight muscle a memorial service a couple of days ago and was a speaker —— a muslim memorial service. one of the first ben head teachers in england, and —— one of the first muslim head teachers in england, thank you so much for being with us. explain your involvement and what ceremonies you have been taking part in. and what ceremonies you have been taking part im— taking part in. thank you so much indeed. it has _ taking part in. thank you so much indeed. it has been _ taking part in. thank you so much indeed. it has been a _ taking part in. thank you so much indeed. it has been a real - taking part in. thank you so much | indeed. it has been a real pleasure to be invited to be one of the speakers at the muslim memorial service at the central mosque this week. it was a pleasure to see so many people, over 200 people attended, apart —— because a majority of eight muslim face that lots of other people from other

religious —— from the muslim failth, but lots of other people from other religions, but all coming together to acknowledge the work of our queen and also about prince charles to give him good wishes for the accession to the throne. what were the memories _ accession to the throne. what were the memories in _ accession to the throne. what were the memories in particular- accession to the throne. what were the memories in particular of - accession to the throne. what were the memories in particular of the l the memories in particular of the queen, what is it in particular that people were saying thank you for? people were saying thank you to her for her service, really, people were saying thank you to her for herservice, really, over70 years on the throne. her loyalty and the service for all communities something which is really something that people wanted to celebrate and acknowledge. she has visited mosques, temples, she has gone to all faith communities. and everybody in the country wanted to come together to recognise a great

monarch and the great service she provided for the whole country. and we wanted very much to be part of that, the muslim community. faith was huael that, the muslim community. faith was hugely important _ that, the muslim community. faith was hugely important to _ that, the muslim community. faith was hugely important to the queen herself, her religion was not your religion but your sense is that she valued religion, is it, and she and respected everybody, whatever their own individualfaith? respected everybody, whatever their own individual faith?— own individual faith? absolutely, this is a multi-faith _ own individual faith? absolutely, this is a multi-faith country - own individual faith? absolutely, j this is a multi-faith country now, this is a multi—faith country now, and it's very important that all of the faiths are recognised and really that we are all, to you know, together, with all of our different beliefs, with all the faiths respected the benefit of the country. we all have our duty to respect and support each other�*s

to build was this community spirit and we form a committee to bring people together, we hold events on a regular basis and, you know, it's all about bringing everybody together. walking around, you can see evidence of the king's commitment to the environment — houses have built—in birds nests and bee bricks, and fruit trees line the streets. here, we've got an apple tree. these are all over the estate where — it's all about sustainability, all about wildlife, bringing it — keeping wildlife within the community so that it's not all gone because we've built houses in this particular area. we put it on the steam... for this hat maker, the sustainability vision is a perfect fit with his business. marcel uses renewable energy and ethical suppliers. he met the king earlier this year. it was a lovely, lovely experience. he shared a really keen interest in what we do sustainability—wise. and how are you feeling about the new duke, a new generation coming? again, excited. i think, you know, i don't think much is going to change, obviously. prince william is going to carry

on the legacy of his father, and i think, again, it will be nice to have some young blood coming through. the king wanted to create a vibrant community with homes, shops, offices and green spaces all within walking distance. around 600 homes have been built since 2014. 30% are affordable. and this bakery was one of the first businesses to open here. it's a huge project and it's well under the way, so hopefully with the team that they've got, it will continue in the same vein. i feel like we're in good hands, especially with the new duke of cornwall. and how hopeful are you that the duke and his family will visit soon? it would be fantastic to meet him. obviously, we've grown up — we're a similarage, got similar aged children, and you see their lives, like, in parallel to ours and it would be — yeah, it would be fantastic to meet him. we'd really love that. so, plenty of optimism about the future here with many feeling that the new duke of cornwall, prince william, together with his father's vision,

is a recipe for success. jenny kumah, bbc news. jenny reflecting on the changing of the guard essentially in terms of the guard essentially in terms of the duke of cornwall. we are of course keeping an eye very much as i looked down at our various camera angles here, we know the king has a lot of meetings this afternoon, he was driven into the palace within the last hour, again, as we have been seeing, there were cheers and applause as he was driven through the gates. the various camera angles i have been looking at, there are still thousands of people there at the palace and people arriving to lay flowers. flowers that you can view in green park and hyde park. you might choose to do that rather than spend 16, i7, 18 you might choose to do that rather than spend 16, 17, 18 hours in the queue, but the choice is yours.

currently around about a weight of 16 hours for people justjoining the queue to attend the tying 16 hours for people justjoining the queue to attend the lying in state. hugely emotional experience as people have been telling us here on bbc news. we will keep an eye on that for you. and let's find out what the weather prospects are, whether you are thinking ofjoining the queue or somewhere else entirely in the country. let's get the latest details. hello. it has been a chilly start to the day. cold enough even for a few patches of frost, but otherwise lots of morning sunshine. that's how we started the day in newcastle. however, in twickenham, one of our early morning weather watchers photographed this steam fog. that is where the warm, moist air from the lake mixes with surrounding cooler air to create this layer of fog just on the water's surface.

now, for most of you, it will be dry throughout the day today. we do have some showers running in across northern scotland and coming down our north sea coast. so, you could see one or two grazing north yorkshire, the coastline of east yorkshire, lincolnshire, norfolk and suffolk, and the showers will continue on and off through the day in northern scotland. it does turn a little bit cloudy for a time in the early part of the afternoon, but for many, we will keep those spells of sunshine going all day. temperatures after that chilly start around 1a to 18 celsius, and for the queen's lying—in—state, it is going to be a dry day today. a bit more cloud to come tomorrow, and there is a small chance of seeing an odd passing shower, particularly late afternoon or early evening time. on saturday evening, saturday night time, we will see a few more showers coming and going across scotland, perhaps a bit more cloud here, a few mist and fog patches, but otherwise, clear spells and another chilly night. temperatures dipping into single figures in the towns and cities, but cold in the countryside. temperatures low single figures to start the day on sunday.

so, another chilly start. for many, though, it is another bright day on the cards with further spells of sunshine. a bit more cloud for scotland and northern england where there will be a few showers, and i think there is a greater chance of some showers coming down the north sea to affect eastern england. so, you might see some of those into east anglia and south east england, on and off throughout the day. into next week, high pressure continues to affect the weather across england and wales, but we will have some weather fronts and strengthening winds later in the week across the north west of the uk. monday's weather, then. again, there could be a few morning mist and fog patches, but for most of you it is another dry day with some further spells of sunshine. but a bit more cloud around generally, and there is a greater chance of some showers for western scotland, perhaps running as far south as cumbria. temperatures, given the cloudier skies, a little bit higher, 17 or 18 celsius or so. still a lot of dry weather to come in the week ahead, but by thursday, the winds pick up across western areas and we will start to see some rain arriving as well.

much. anne soy following that special service there in kenya. welcome to bbc news, i'm ben brown live at buckingham palace where people continue to lay floral tributes. mourners say they are prepared to wait as long as it takes to see the queen lying in state at westminster hall amidst warnings that queueing times are now at least 16 hours. rehearsals for the state funeral procession on monday have been taking place at windsor. some of the details were overseen by the late queen before her death. and i'mjane hill. in the day's other news, investigations are continuing into possible russian war crimes in the city of izyum. more

than 400 bodies are being exhumed from a burial site. as russia loses ground in ukraine, us president biden warns moscow not to resort to the use of chemical or tactical nuclear weapons. and also this hour, india's prime minister releases eight cheetahs into a national park 70 years after the world's fastest [and animal was declared extinct in the country. hello from buckingham palace, it is a day of warm september sunshine here, the skies, bright blue skies, and a perfect time really for large numbers of people to come to the palace to lay floral tributes for

the late queen. there were rewarded earlier on today with an appearance as the new king arrived, king charles arrived at the palace early this morning and then he has left as well a short time ago. in the last few minutes king charles iii leaving buckingham palace for some engagements. these were the scenes there as the royal motorcade left buckingham palace. there were cheers from the crowds who had gathered here at buckingham palace. world leaders are going to begin gathering in london from today for the state funeral of queen elizabeth which is on monday. members of the public still queueing in their thousands to view her coffin in westminster hall. the wait was at one stage 25 hours. it is now around 16 hours according to the government website. though officials say that queueing will be paused if it reaches capacity again. but so far the long wait times have not deterred people at all.

meanwhile, a man has been arrested after a disturbance in westminster hall last night at around ten o'clock. it is reported he rushed towards the late queen's coffin before being taken into custody. later on today the queen's grandchildren will stand guard around her coffin. yesterday the king, the duke of york, princess royal and the earl of wessex held their own vigil in westminster hall. let's get this report from our correspondent danjohnson. king's guard strikes floor three times. the sound that signals the change of watch called forward the four people who know best the queen's life and character. her children charles, anne, edward and andrew. all of them in uniform, taking their place in silent vigil, lasting almost 15 minutes. surreal, absolutely surreal. loads of respect, just so glad we waited 12 hours, just for that two or three minutes. amazing.

and it wasn't just the queen's coffin, you got to see... we did! how humbling is that? we got to see the whole family, absolutely amazing. _ a very emotional moment, and thatjust added to the whole afternoon, evening. unbelievable. she is the only female we have ever had and will ever have on our planet that is known by everybody in the world, from the smallest island to the largest area on our planet. she isjust the only one, our queen. and that, to me, fills me with immense pride. meanwhile, the queue kept snaking through the night. everybody has remarked on how well—organised things have been and what a nice, positive, friendly attitude there is among the crowd. the temperature is dropping and the wait times are now up as much as 2a hours,

but i don't get the sense anybody is going to be giving up. the day started with a visit to wales. the last piece of our national jigsaw for the new king's tour, his first time here as monarch, though as prince of wales for so long, he is closely associated with this land and its people. while the majority cheered, there were some jeers. crowd boos. but the king acutely is aware of the distinct identity here, including the welsh language. through all the years of her reign, the land of wales could not have been closer to my mother's heart. roedd lle arbennig i gymru yn ei chalon. the new prince and princess of wales were meeting new zealand troops and others from the commonwealth,

who will be taking part in monday's state funeral. the military�*s busy making sure everyone is in step. around 4,000 armed forces personnel will be involved. she is, she has been, the integral part of the armed forces. the glue between the tri— services. the glue between the tri—services. and for me, just to pay one small bit of respect by doing this duty, i can't measure how prideful i feel about that, how humble to have the opportunity to do that. last night a man was arrested in westminster hall after a disturbance a couple of hours after the royals left. there are reports he ran forward and touched the queen's coffin. this has been a place of quiet calm and focused thoughts, from so many who have stepped up on behalf of their country in bad times or in good.

david beckham queued for 12 hours, and he picked up on the sense of generational change felt by so many here. i grew up in a family that were all royalists. i think back to my grandparents, because if my grandparents were alive, they would have been here, so it's nice to be here to celebrate with everybody, you know, the life of her majesty and the legacy that she has left. the king's vigil lasted just a few solemn minutes. a new monarch watching over the old, a son's silent tribute. king's guard strikes floor three times. and this evening, the queen's grandchildren will take their turn here, standing guard

in protection and in mourning. danjohnson, bbc news, westminster. people are continuing to come into westminster hall to pay their respects to the queen lying in state. a little earlier today the foreign secretary james cleverly and his wife were among them. immediately after the state funeral on monday he will host a reception for guests at a nearby church house as members of the royal family head to windsorfor the as members of the royal family head to windsor for the queen's burial. the queue for westminster hall, at one stage it was 25 hours, then it was 2a hours, then we were hearing 16 hours. it has actually gone down to 14 16 hours. it has actually gone down to 1a hours is the latest we are hearing from the government website which keeps track of the length of time that people have to wait. there it is, up to 1a hours. so a little

bit more manageable. let's go to my colleague karin giannone who is in westminster. the queue time is a bit more manageable, and also the weather, i know it was cold overnight but it is pretty warm now, so at least better conditions for those who are queueing. yes, the clear skies over night have meant although it was really cold overnight, the early hours of the morning were pretty bleak, though people here were doing their best to remain optimistic. today is going to be a really sunny day and people are uplifted by the time they get here. we are right in the middle of the phenomenon known as the snake. i'm sure you have seen shots of it from above on from the side and it is quite something to be in the midst of. so many people condensed into this part of westminster at victoria tower gardens. and at this point we are probably about two thirds of the way through the snake. people who entered the snake entered it about

an hour ago, entered the snake entered it about an hourago, so entered the snake entered it about an hour ago, so although you are so close to the palace of westminster it is still such a long way to queue but everybody has said it is the least of our worries. we have done 13 hours now, that's the figure that these people have been through, 13 hours, theyjoined the queue at about 11pm, and they have also been "’£i{e’u§d5£é§ " ,,, ' ttthetu'pdateszith tt the updates with interest watching the updates with interest because hearing that were 25 because hearing that there were 25 hour waits estimated at six o'clock this morning for people joining haw? them hewe them feel they got better pa rt better part of the deal. z kama. z z 5 2 kuwait timet , . t kuwait timetntow t t t kuwaittimetntowmt t t kuwait timetntow 1a htoutrs, so that kuwait time now 1a hours, so things have eased considerably. there were fears so many people were coming to southwark park five miles away from here that it would become unmanageable, the queue would be closed, there were warnings, but it hasn't happened, there is still entry to the queue. but at points yesterday there was a six plus our closure of southwark park, the entrance to the queue, so that's a big risk if you are taking a journey down tojoin the big risk if you are taking a journey down to join the queue in south—east london there is always the

possibility that the number of have simply got too much for people have simply got too much for it. let's find out the situation in southwark park. lauren moss my colleague there. how is it looking, people still managing to join the queue? they are indeed. it is very busy. i've been here for about seven hours now and it has got steadily busier with more and more peoplejoining the queue, southwark park, the back of the queue is divided into four zones i can see. this is a one which is very full and people are crowding up is very full and people are crowding up to fill that zone. when the park gets to capacity the government website says that the queueing system may pause. like you said people joining the system may pause. like you said peoplejoining the queue system may pause. like you said people joining the queue now have been told it could be up to 1a hours before they make their way to where you are at westminster hall. i've been speaking to people here all morning, some have come with their families, some have come on their own, i met somebody who had come from belgium and was struck by what he described as the britishness of it all, notjust he described as the britishness of it all, not just the he described as the britishness of it all, notjust the polite queueing

system but the way everyone has pulled together and made friends with each other, sharing snacks and drinks, and some good cheer to try and keep everybody�*s spirits up in what is at its very heart a sombre event to pay their respects to the queen lying in state in westminster hall. speaking about new friendships being forged, i'm joined hall. speaking about new friendships being forged, i'mjoined by hall. speaking about new friendships being forged, i'm joined by gerald and sandeep. you have known each other a grand total of a0 minutes. yes, we met in the queue, but we have already exchanged lots of friendship data.— have already exchanged lots of friendship data. have already exchanged lots of friendshi data. ~ ., , ., friendship data. where have you both come from today? _ friendship data. where have you both come from today? hounslow. - friendship data. where have you both l come from today? hounslow. surbiton. not too far a — come from today? hounslow. surbiton. not too far a track _ come from today? hounslow. surbiton. not too far a track for _ come from today? hounslow. surbiton. not too far a track for you, _ come from today? hounslow. surbiton. not too far a track for you, some - not too far a track for you, some people have done damn i come down from yorkshire and other countries, but you have bought some fluids —— —— some people have come down from yorkshire. -- some people have come down from yorkshire. ~ ., . , yorkshire. wherever i can go closest to the queen. _ yorkshire. wherever i can go closest to the queen, in _ yorkshire. wherever i can go closest to the queen, in the _ yorkshire. wherever i can go closest to the queen, in the abbey, - yorkshire. wherever i can go closest to the queen, in the abbey, or - yorkshire. wherever i can go closest| to the queen, in the abbey, or where everl to the queen, in the abbey, or where ever i can, wherever my heart says this is the right place i will do it there. ~ , . ,

bring you the latest from buckingham palace. we have just seen the bring you the latest from buckingham palace. we havejust seen the prince and princess of wales leaving the palace in the last couple of minutes, and earlier we saw king charles living in the last hour or so, —— leaving in the last hour or so, —— leaving in the last hour or so, getting big cheers from the crowds in warm september sunshine, a perfect day for the crowds who have been laying him there floral tribute and get a glimpse of members of the royal family. rehearsals have been under way under the cover of night. let's bring you pictures of military representatives rehearsing outside windsor castle. the queen's coffin will be taken there after monday's funeral at westminster abbey. it will then be laid in the royal vault at windsor, beside the queen's late husband, the duke of edinburgh, who died in april 2021. at windsor barracks — the armed forces participating in the procession have rehearsed for the first time as one. particularly on this occasion, everyone wants to do their level best to give the queen the most fitting, appropriate send—off that we can.

and there's a real vibe around camp at the moment, people really puffing out their chests, wanting to do their level best for the queen, for herfinal send—off. we will be looking our absolute sharpest. let's bring you up—to—date with which guests will be at the funeral on monday, china has decided to send to the vice president of china to the funeral, that is wang qishan, a chinese delegation wanted to attend the tying chinese delegation wanted to attend the lying in state in westminster hall and they were banned from going because the chinese government has sanctioned several members of the british parliament over there comments over what is going on with the treatment of the uyghurs in

particular. and western intelligence agencies have criticised the crown prince of arabia being invited to the funeral. he has denied ordering the funeral. he has denied ordering the murder of the journalist in 2018, but he and his regime have been mired in controversy over that. as a prince, king charles often spoke about the importance five years ago king, king charles was author of a ground—breaking and bestselling book which was aimed at aduu bestselling book which was aimed at adult readers, the only ladybird book to have been peer reviewed. we can speak to one of the two

co—authors, professor emily shugborough, obe, director of the university of cambridge's climate initiative. thank you for being with us. first of all, assess the work for us of king charles, prince charles as he was then, on climate change, on raising awareness about what is happening to our planet? in many ways, he understood the environmental challenges that the planet is under, long before many, many others. it's a topic he has been talking about since the 19605 and he is passionate about it. he has been one of the greatest advocates, i would say outspoken advocates, i would say outspoken advocates, as much as really passionate advocates, who wanted to explain which is what we did with the ladybird books, the risks that the ladybird books, the risks that the planet is under, the risks that the planet is under, the risks that the planet is under, the risks that

the planet is under from those challenges, that humanity is under. what was it like co—authoring a book with a king of the future? it what was it like co-authoring a book with a king of the future?— with a king of the future? it was humbling. _ with a king of the future? it was humbling. he — with a king of the future? it was humbling, he is _ with a king of the future? it was humbling, he is incredibly- humbling, he is incredibly knowledgeable about the topic but it was the same as co—authoring an academic work with any of my other colleagues. it felt very strange in that sense. the other co—author and i tonyjuniper exchanged many drafts, it was a real collaboration with the then prince. we then went up with the then prince. we then went up to scotland and sat around his desk and went through line byline. so it was an incredible collaboration and it was an honour to share that experience and share his wisdom on the subject. he to share that experience and share his wisdom on the subject. his wisdom on the sub'ect. he said in an interview h his wisdom on the sub'ect. he said in an interview a h his wisdom on the sub'ect. he said in an interview a few_ his wisdom on the subject. he said in an interview a few years - his wisdom on the subject. he said in an interview a few years ago, i in an interview a few years ago, he's not stupid, he knows it is a very role being king then it is being aired to the throne, prince

charles. —— being the heir to the throne. he will not be able to express his views as forthrightly, some people said he will be an activist king but he has poured cold water on that. what do you think he will be in terms of his views on climate change, the environment and the future of the planet? the climate change, the environment and the future of the planet?— the future of the planet? the one thin that the future of the planet? the one thing that both _ the future of the planet? the one thing that both in _ the future of the planet? the one thing that both in his _ the future of the planet? the one thing that both in his role - the future of the planet? the one thing that both in his role as - the future of the planet? the one thing that both in his role as the l thing that both in his role as the prince of wales and now his role as king, one thing that he can do as a global leader which he is and has beenin global leader which he is and has been in take that long view that other global leaders are able to do. he has a duty and indeed a responsibility, i think he feels this, to warn the world of challenges, of the threats to nature and the way in which that impact global society. so i think that he will continue to feel that responsibility. but as he described

the other day, in terms of his ability to expend as much time and energy, he is looking to others to pick up that mantle. one imagines not least the new prince of wales, who has already started many environmental initiatives of his own, the earth shot price, for example. i think it is very dear to charles's heart but he has been a genuine leader over so many decades on this topic and i really hope that continues. ~ ., on this topic and i really hope that continues. ~ . _ , ., on this topic and i really hope that continues. ~ . , ., ., , continues. whatever he says and does as kina , is continues. whatever he says and does as king. is it— continues. whatever he says and does as king. is it your— continues. whatever he says and does as king, is it your impression - continues. whatever he says and does as king, is it your impression that - as king, is it your impression that he is always thinking about the world? he is a deep thinker? iie he is always thinking about the world? he is a deep thinker? he is a deep thinker — world? he is a deep thinker? he is a deep thinker and _ world? he is a deep thinker? he is a deep thinker and i _ world? he is a deep thinker? he is a deep thinker and i think _ world? he is a deep thinker? he is a deep thinker and i think that - world? he is a deep thinker? he is a deep thinker and i think that ties - deep thinker and i think that ties into my earlier comments that he is into my earlier comments that he is in a unique position to take along view and unique position to think deeply about these topics which are critical to the future of humanity. and perhaps can take that more deep,

considered a view that people who are in other global leadership positions who are more tied to short—term politics. so i think it is incredibly valuable that we have a royalfamily is incredibly valuable that we have a royal family who is incredibly valuable that we have a royalfamily who is is incredibly valuable that we have a royal family who is able to take that position in global society. we saw the queen, following on from her legacy, she provided, unfortunately not able to go in person because of her deteriorating health but she provided a critical intervention into the climate conference that happened in glasgow last year, really trying to inspire the world to global action on climate change. so there is a long tradition of that form of global leadership and a sense of duty and responsibility for leading people through the challenges that we are facing today and face in the future.—

half an hour to get out and then a few more checks on the other side, half an hour few more checks on the other side, halfan houragain few more checks on the other side, half an hour again and maybe then they are in the westminster hall. so it is much warmer than it was, the blankets that have been given out through the night and the early hours, the blue blankets, people are taking them off and taking their layers. the people who havejoined at around 11 at night are around me now. they were given a boost a little bit earlier when they had none other than king charles a visit to the queue at lambeth bridge. about 250 metres away from where we are as the crow flies over that side, lambeth bridge is almost the final stage of the queue, i'm not sure if you can see the pictures of his visit, i'm assured that we will get the pictures of his visit to the queue. he spent a few moments greeting the people who have come to see his late mother lying in state.

it is still such a moment, virtually no complaints, one woman who just walked past me, she said that her legs hurt so much that she was losing the will to live. she is one of the few people, the few people who has complained but still in the overview people are very optimistic to be nearing the end of this long night and long day. so many people went to work yesterday, went to school yesterday, and have come to the queue and spent all night through the night, through those dark hours. and very, very cold, temperatures into single figures celsius. but still the optimistic spirit overall, it really is such a thing. i asked somebody if their feet hurt, and they say it, that doesn't matter at all, it's worth it. before we see those pictures of the very special royal visit to lambeth bridge, let's talk to some of the people who are in this 13
