3:03 pm
buckingham palace. they were amazed about the, the precision of this grand royal opera, if you would call it like that, that unfolded before their very eyes. $4000.00 soldiers were marching there. several bands, cannons were fired, of the tolls, and that the bells were told. so it was a very dignified to farewell for the queen that served their country for over set for 70 years. and we all watching the procession earlier fall following at the funeral. now, a motorcade on its way to windsor where the queen will be buried. white is that that's the wish of the queen herself serve. she loved windsor castle, was her favorite home, and also her parents and her sister are buried there and she will be bird together with her late husband philip in though in the same bald all 5 of them. so there was a wish of the queen and some kings chose and queens chose to be buried in
3:04 pm
westminster and some are buried somewhere else in britain. so this is not unusual to tell us about security measures. i guess that's also not unusual bed unprecedented ah, in london. and it's not as morn as but also i ranking world leaders of course to visit the city and say good bye. where the metropolitan police told me this is the biggest operation security rise, london, and britain has ever seen as bigger than the olympic games are 2010 and not only a 1000000 people moving around in london, but also about $500.00 president's ministers. heads of states, royals of kings and queens, you have it who had to be secured and to moved around. and they did that in buses and coaches because there was no way to have all these motor. cade's in the city, only a president biden from the united states and some other guys were allowed to have
3:05 pm
to use their own chi actually and, and now these people are leaving again and the police is somewhat relieved that everything went very well and very calmly. well, as the hearse with the queen's coff makes its way to windsor british politics on the other hand of more or less ground to a standstill since the queen died starting tomorrow. what kind of political activity we see in london when you have to keep in mind that this trust, the new prime minister has only 2 days long and office before the queen died. so she has a lot on her plate. now, of course, the crisis, the cost of living prices and the inflation crisis is not over. and people in britain are expecting some recipes from have some plans. and on friday, she's due to and veal, her new budget, with a lot of cut text cuts and, and money given to them to the public. again, that,
3:06 pm
that's what she promised her in the election campaign. and people are also asking who will pay for all of this? and how with this work out, there's a new king and a new prime minister that can mean also a phase of instability in britain. and yet for us there having proceedings for us are from westminster by the state funeral of queen elizabeth the 2nd has just taken place and me in the studio is forced. alex forest whiting to continue out live coverage of this historic day. and what we saw was a very important significant, but also symbolic few rolled there and a sermon that was really had a message for more than just the queen or the royal family, or the u. k. yes, it was given by the archbishop of canterbury who are just in well be, who is the head clergyman of the church of england?
3:07 pm
the monarch is in fact the head, the supreme governor of the church of england said that was the queen's role for 70 years. and in his address. and he said, few leaders receive the outpouring of love we have seen, which is completely true. what we have seen, not just in the u. k, but across the world. and then this one, the pointed comment, those who claim to power will be forgotten. and that was in the context of which was in talking about the service of the queen that threw out her 70 years on the throne. she put duty and service 1st, and that is why she is so respected. why people from all over the world heads of state, members of royal families, the president of the united states, eccentric cetera, have flocked to london for her state funeral so that they could pay their last respects to a woman who embodied service. not somebody who wanted to cling to power and would be forgotten. but somebody who did her role very quietly, really,
3:08 pm
and served the people there about it was about ambition for the queen and, and not about her from that me me, me generation is c of charles king charles. the 3rd now is taking over and we've had over the past couple days, a few glimpses of what sort of king u. k. could be in for but will it be a king who be clinging to power? i don't think that he even wanted the job just as much as i didn't think his mother particularly wanted the job. he certainly didn't want the job, but he's had decades to prepare for it. and i think he's made it clear that he wants to try to can continue on the role of his mother. so follow as much as he can in her footsteps. the problem is he's never going to be as popular as her. her ratings were in what 83 percent back in may, his ratings back in may of whether he would do
3:09 pm
a good job is king were only 32 percent. although since his mother died and since he became king, they've shopped up to 63 percent. so that's very good for him, and he must be hoping he can cling on to that and he can encourage wittons to get behind him. but it's a tough act to follow. he's got a lot of problems on his plate. most notably, what's going to happen, for example, with the united kingdom, will it stay united when scotland wants independence and popular? possibly, northern ireland might want to reunify with the republic of ireland and also with the commonwealth. his head of state of 14 other countries states, apart from the u. k. a. we already saw barbados leaving back in november. will others follow suit? they've already been making noises. some of them have that they want to, so he's got a lot on his plate. well, of is crowds that have turned out today. i'm telling i think they are, but i think they're there for the queen without
3:10 pm
a doubt. and obviously people are getting behind king charles. they support him. he has, i think one over i'm heart sent me since the all the mistakes of the 1990 s with his awful divorce from princess diana and her tragic death. he certainly improved things and i think people now see 73 year old monarch on who's got to try his best and keep the country unified. alex, thank you very much for coming in and thank you very much for your coverage of this historic day. well german president, time by this time my is leading the german delegation for the safety and role of queen elizabeth the 2nd he and his wife pay their respects in person at the queen's coffin on sunday evening here in germany, flags on public buildings like the german parliament that you can see here have been flying at half mast while the state funeral takes place in london. you now talk to t
3:11 pm
w political correspond. benjamin either has cooper to get the german angle on this venue in german president about his di my as representing the country. today's funeral. what words did he find to remember the late queen? he said the queen elizabeth shaped the sentry and that her death also touched people here in germany, in an interview that he gave to him and media. yesterday he said that people were used to rallying behind the screen for over 70 years. and now everyone has the sense that something is missing, not only in britain and in london, but also wide. and i may also call today state funeral and event of the century you just mentioned sunday is there with his wife that were joined by the german ambassador in the united kingdom, who signed the book of condolence? the saying, the queen elizabeth showed a strong commitment to the bilateral relations between the united kingdom in germany. how was the queen seen here in germany? and how will she be remembered? what the chancellor said,
3:12 pm
what does german chancellor love shall said is that the queen was an inspiration for millions, including here in this country. and it was affection on both sides. although the relationship took a while to warm up. she had 5 state visits here in germany. the 1st one happened in 9075, so only 20 years after world war 2. definitely her most historically significant visit was considered a gesture of reconciliation by a west germans in 2015. she made her last visit to germany and then then dormer, president jak, and go called the queen's 1st visit, an inspiring event in the young federal republic. and he said the german people that she gave them trust and gave them confidence in the future. we wanted to know what people in berlin were, people in germany, a thinking nowadays. so we went to their streets of berlin and asked them not only what they think about the queen and what they think about the monarchy, but also to get their opinion on today. state funeral and this is what they told us . oh, that was from i think that's appropriate after such
3:13 pm
a long time in office. we are both my wife and i quite anglo files. my wife probably even watches it at work with her bosses. returns of susan, missouri said, well, it shows how popular she was with the population and what kind of status she still had. she did. and i think it's a little weird that they're making such a big deal out of it. but it's certainly a shame that she's dead definitely. but other than that, i don't really care. thank me isn't. i think monarchies are kind of outdated and it's crazy. but i had totally forgotten that there. even armando keys in europe at all until she died. when i go in over the cigarette dogmas cases, it's of course that saw now that she died, but i think it's beautiful the and how she died, that she died in peace, that she died in a place that she liked much. he also had her family close by now had her a bit of a history lesson there for some of us looking at a german british relations though over the decades, what will queen elizabeth's legacy be in shaping them? so the visits that we mentioned marked milestones in the relationship between
3:14 pm
germany and great britain. she set foot on germany, saw it on the 20 years of the world. what to she visited the war. she visited also germany a few years after the reification. she visited the checkpoint charlie this former border crossing. there are also other relations with a german that we should mention here a deceased husband, prince philip, the duke of edinburgh had german routes. his mother was a german princes and all of his forces married into german, royal and aristocratic family. so it's not surprising that some of his family members also attended today state funeral, a funeral, a very big funeral that we've been following for the whole day that will be remembered of a woman that will be remembered as a friend of germany that will stay in the memory of many people who are watching this event today, all around the world as co, and the strong german connection there. thank you very much for queen
