let's speak now to our -- who's at st. james's palace. a huge moment for the new king. >> oh this is going to be an extraordinary few hours we have been ahead of us we are going to see pageantry that is never been seen in this country for the past 70 years and for so many will also encapsulate what is a quite difficult juxtaposition. was well a country wanting to mourn the death of queen elizabeth the second, the business of monarchy continues and this is going to be the first official ceremony since her death was confirmed on thursday i think what is going to be fascinating is the facts for the first time television cameras are going to be able to capture the moment that this all happens.

as you explained, the process happen across two parts. i will see members of the privy council all gathering and without the king president they will proclaim the sovereign and formally approve various consequential orders including regions -- it is then at the moment that king charles the third will arrive and importantly take his oath. we're going to see here, on the balcony behind us, -- read in public and that sets off a stream of other proclamations that will be read in london and right across the country. this is going to be a truly unique and historic. moment >> yesterday we saw the king greeting crowds in buckingham palace. later, the first official speech to the nation. what are we learn the speech about the kind of monarchy

succeeding on? toby >> i think we always knew that it was going to be an emotional and poignant moment. of course, prince charles -- i've known for so long. there's a man who was emotions on the sleeve so for him this is not going to be an easy moment the balance between the moment that he talks about talks with his beloved mother as he was preparing to record that message which we know was recorded in the blue drawing room. he was the one that had chosen a photograph. the virus also that was on the desk had three coworkers at the base that was apparently situated in the queens audience room. there's a little touches that he chose to make their however

within the message she was very setting out various questions that people might have is he going to be this crusading man that we've seen just like his mother, he fully appreciates and respects the political process here in this country. the constitution and therefore have crusading and making sure the various charities or looked after that passes on to the next generation to his air prince william and also others who still on the charities today. >> brianna, thanks very much indeed. let's bring in our royal commentator. he's in westminster for us this morning broadcast live from air

for the first time. >> yes it's the chance to see what was always private won a group of solely men used to gather but that's all changed in the last queens rain it is really a function of constitutional process and that may sound tedious but we have seen a great moment in the history of the nation with the death of the queen. you need to go through procedures in order to make sure that everything is right for the new rain to operate and for parliament and government these ideas go way back to the early moments of our history when monarchs were also -- at least prepared to listen to their high council and this

privy council has emerged particularly when there is a statutory cloud by the monarch using advice and as a result of what happens today the proclamations will take place and they're the pageantry will occur on the proclamation gallery in the court and all the ceremonial britain will be seen. >> we are looking now at pictures from 1952 which was the last time this happened it reminds you that this is a rare event. >> it's immensely. where it's only occurring at the death of a monarch. you see the proclamation gallery with -- who's in 1952 he standing beside him with the watch

whether dignitaries because it always seems to be the focus of trade with other nations in the early medieval and trudeau periods sows for necessary for the hills to come to trump or and to possess into the city of london and in a very much less dramatic way the queens local that there is in -- >> apologies. >> i was going to say, all of it. all of it takes us into our history but it reminds us of our president and is set us ready for what's to. come >> thanks very much indeed

70s to the shooter queen elizabeth ii. >> yes. -- -- how the queen has served as

monarch. emily, he wanted to give us that continuity. did you also feel that he was going to be a different king on the way that you talk to people, the way presented himself? >> within the press point to make is very important. -- to do the in service being the counterpart of the privileged life whose important -- -- use it means, on man, himself, he's telling us -- but he still care about them -- -- but he will be -- soon was responsibilities fully answers with the warmth and woman gave me an. sometimes you say that the queen was so determined not to allow --

-- >> i'm sure if we had longer bill to persuade you. we must leave it there. fascinating to talk to you, thanks for joining us. mps will continue to pay tribute to the queen in the house of commons and one of those who should remember yesterday was former prime minister theresa may. >> armour one picnic which was taking place in one of -- the hampers came from the castle -- to put the food -- cheese on the four. at a split-second decisions to make. [laughs] a pick of the cheese, put on

the plane and put on the table,, and i turned around to see the my every move has been watched very carefully by near her majesty. i look at her, she looked at me and she just smiles and gigi remained on the table. >> joining me now amanda -- who's in westminster. brilliant timing from theresa may. -- news a real mixture of stories, wasn't? there when you morris, somebody said. >> she really brought the house down with the warm an enduring story about the queen. also quite a humorous anecdote

-- being told by him that earlier had genuinely believed -- -- the current prime minister has enough to seem opportunity -- with the predecessors. -- in the comments yesterday but of course she was only invited to form a compliment -- -- to discuss the queen is one of the greatest leaders the world's ever known and said that she had generously -- some of her experience of government even journalist days. we also had a real range of stories and anecdotes thank tribute to the queens different characteristics -- talking about the reassurance she provided to the nation during covid. harry harmon talking about the queen's kindness and inviting her to have a couple of téa buckingham palace after she'd

been sacked from -- anything to do with her. now, today, i want to clock, the house of commons will be sitting again and the house of lords -- hundred 82 tributes and many more mps who will certainly want to speak today. we are expecting them to be sitting until late in the evening. it is very unusual for the house of commons to be sitting on saturday. it's only the sixth time this is happened. previously a moments of moments of -- that outbreak of war 1939 -- in 2019. of course, another real major turning point in the nation's history. liz truss did have a meeting with king's today. her first audience and later today the whole cabinet will be have an audience with him. >> amanda, thank you very much indeed. >> let's reflect on the day

ahead with historian and author he joins me once again. hearing what is happening in parliament, looking ahead to the council later today, a reminder of how much planning has gone into -- a week full of formal and informal activities. >> absolutely. the british constitution has a deep memory, might be 70 years since this last happened, the planning for this has been happening for 25 years meticulously, exactly what is going to happen day after day, hour after hour, it reminds us doesn't is that when we've had a new prime minister, what has happened to her, totally eclipsed by the arrival of the new monarch and the death of the last monarch. that put, i think, this country into perspective, the fact that we are democracy but we're also monarchy, no other country on earth manages to have a

meaningful monarch that isn't an autocrat or a tyrant or java monarchy that means nothing, the surviving monarchies, very few left in the world, nothing manages this juggling act of being a democracy and a monarchy, this week and next week will be all about the monarchy, we forgot that the prime minister is new. building up the gathering, watching outside this palace, all these people, and this historic robe and garment, they're all gathering for the big announcement from the balcony the, queen is dead, all meticulously choreographed as if it's a ballet with people knowing exactly what to step, what to say.

>> usually, all happening behind closed doors but this time we're allowed to peek behind the curtain, we have it live on television, it will be a spectacle. >> isn't that really great? that stating something about the openness of the system of government and our constitution, when the queen was crowned 69 years ago to have that televised was so controversial including the service itself of coronation, now we are having the succession council, and really opening that up to the british public, to the whole world, what happens in a monarchy. this very delicate finally tuned business. of course king's charles is already king, the proclamation, there aren't going to be surprises, there won't be a surprise, no one is wondering who will be the new king, but

the formality, the process is important in any constitution, things are done in the right way, precedent is followed. dignity and the robes and the words and customs, traditions, going back in some cases hundreds of years or all followed, that alone is britain, that is the way we do things here. >> you touched on this the fact that we do this here but it is so unusual globally to see this kind of level of ceremony in this way, is after to say? >> i think it's absolutely right to say, monarchies have declined, there were 100 in 1952, the last time this happened when the queen was crowned there are now upside the commonwealth only 25. and nothing like this, what can we compared to, the inauguration of the new american president on the steps outside congress, but that has

come and gone in a flash, it's nothing less than [inaudible] a pageant of what is happening here. no country on earth, that is not exaggeration or excessive pride, no country on earth does it with the fine attention to detail, the beautiful meticulous historic detail and the passion tree of this country. it says a lot about what britain's. >> while we have this formality planned for later on today, do you imagine, we don't have all the details yet, we don't have the day for the funeral, not all the details of the plans, but do you imagine that there will be more informal invents planned for king charles to spend more times with people? >> yes, as you say, even when the funeral is going to take place that will be the biggest gathering in the 21st century of world leaders, it will be massive beyond any imagination

when that comes perhaps on monday. we till then are filling the space and giving the public attention focusing on the new monarch, expect events to unfold over the coming days, it will be exciting to see that unfold. >> anthony, thank you so much for being by my side, we've witness some of those events and the key one for today having -- happening at 10:00 today. anthony, thank you indeed. >> the queen has been warned across the united kingdom but in one of the nations another historic changing of the guard after prince william and catherine were given new titles. we have the reaction there to the new prince and princess of whales. t >> across the world, there is a deep sense of gratitude. >> the prince of wales, three

generations gathered to watch their king and hear of a new prints. >> nice to see, hopefully we will see him doing the runs in wales. >> he might be the most popular prince in wales. >> i think so. >> i like williams. >> absolutely. i think he is going to be good for us. >> charles took on the role following an event in 1969. >> i charles prince of wales do become your lead man of life and limb. >> now it is a turn of his son and heir, while williams wife becomes princess of wales, a title not used since it was held by diana. the announcement of the world does not come without controversy. some in wales believe that this milestone should have been the end of the role of prince of wales, many at least calling for a major reinvention. it is understood that both

william and kate will be focused on deepening the trust of the people of wales overtime. although the news was expected it's immense the role in wales for the next generation of royals. >> normally, a moment of inheritance they become duke of cornwall, and to become prince of wealth as well and earl of chester, titles that echo with medieval stories, he is affirming the fact that this is how he and the queen consort will move forward with the prince and princess of whales. >> the queen said that she had been privileged to bear this title for so much of his life. for the people of this nation, they now prepare for a new prince and princess. sky news, in cardiff. >> from wales to northern ireland of the queen played a pivotal role in helping to cement peace after the dark

years of the troubles, communities remain divided in their view of britain and the royal family. our senior island correspondent reports now on the reaction to the queen's death. >> on to this road in belfast they are mourning their queen and the loss is palpable. >> she was a wonderful woman. she really was. i don't think there will be another monarch like her. i don't, honestly. >> here in the loyalist heartland, their pride to call themselves british. >> she was my boss. for 22 years. >> on the opposite side of the wall there is no reporting of grief. >> spanish queen, were irish, sorry for the loss and for the family. >> it's not something --

she was a mother, a grandmother but [inaudible] >> they have a nationalists supreme minister, she says this wasn't the time for anti monarchy sentiment. >> this is the time for everyone to be respectful, queen elizabeth has that, there's a family that is mourning her loss, at the end of the day she may have been the queen of england which results so a mother a grandmother, people should be respectful, this is a time for reflection. a time to be respectful of all people and how they feel right now. >> the is tight security in northern island, it didn't stop people coming to reflect at hillsburgh castle. >> it doesn't matter where your from, what color you are -- >> northern island is the corner of the united kingdom for you will find loyal suspects and the least loyal, even in this divided society

where some are not fond of the monarchy there is broad consensus that queen elizabeth herself personally made an enormous contribution to the search for peace. the queen lead the way on reconciliation, her legacy challenges a new generation to make the scene pledge for peace. david levin, sky news in belfast. >> let's take you to scotland now and join our correspondent james matthew who is at balmoral where of course the queen spent her last days, james what is happening there now? >> people are turning up on this crisp saturday morning in balmoral to lay floral tributes, there is a park and write operations that people can come to this congested corner to pay their respects. i'm joined by some who have come here, graham, olivia, joy,

tell me, graham, why come here? tell me your thoughts on the queen? >> i thought it was a good opportunity to come and say thank you paris backs, and the queen has been there every day since i've been alive, like most of the nation, it's just a fitting time to say thank you and we are quite local as well. we thought it was good for the kids to remember this as well. thinking back on another 70 year. >> olivia, what do you remember about the queen? >> i remember when i went to london i saw the palace but i think she was there, but we didn't get in, i remember when i was at school and that was the jubilee we were learning loads about her, coloring in, finding the cords and

everything. >> what did you learn about the queen? >> we learned that she has been on the throne for 70 years and yeah. >> nice, well done, olivia. let's bring you in, what do you remember? >> i just want to say thank you as well, pay their respects to the queen. yeah, that's all i want to say. >> graham, you spoke about being a local, she is a local, there is a connection isn't there between this part of the world and the queen? >> yeah and i think she was quite proud -- mentioned scotland as well, king charles as well if there is anything in the area there could be seen walking around yeah very brought to have them

so close on our doorstep, it's good. >> and they were regular features, talk to me about the pride, where does the pride come from? >> i think just proud of what they have done for us. proud of what the queen has done for us not just here, but all over the world. such a shame, such a shame that this is happened. yeah. hopefully things will stay the same with king charles or progress even more. >> what about you, mate? what do you think about the queen? >> you're shy? >> you want to pay respect. thank you very much, much appreciate your time. >> thank you. >> one family among many who have been here over the course of the past couple of days, many more are expected to come,

when the flowers are laid here there is no plastic wrapping that is because this will all be composted at some stage in the future in line with the royal family's green couldn't show that the new king charles the third, there is an air of sorrow of regret and of respect among people who have turned up here, there have been dozens of not hundred and they do tend to gather in a quiet remembrance, it's interesting, you speak to people who are in the balmoral state and have been over the past couple of days, they speak about the people on the estate themselves who walked with the queen, who were close to her. they say that it has had an impact on them in terms of the grief, and sense of loss they feel. different levels of grief i suppose in and around the balmoral state. the queen was so fond of this,

that fondness is reflected in the people turning up here and the sentiment that you have heard expressed. >> yes, indeed, james thank you very much indeed for those reflections and reflecting on the queens affection about balmoral. the queen traditionally spend christmas with her family, flowers and tributes have been laid there as the community mourns her death. let's go now to the deputy president, ivan brown. ivan thank you so much for talking to us this morning i want to start by hearing your experience of meeting the queen, i know that she threw a reception outside as part of the platinum jubilee celebration and i understand that you were there, what did you make of her and then, of that event? >> that was a magical event, i mean we had no idea that there

was going to happen until a few days before and it was just 18 of us in the room that afternoon, little groups of people and the queen arrived and yes she looked frailer, but she had a tremendous smile and the sparkle in her eyes and she came around and spoke with every group of people and there are two of my fellow w. i'm members with me and she has how we cope to covid, what we had been up to? usual shoddy queen that she always was. when she came to the women's institute. >> federal connection to the women's institute, didn't she? >> she was a member of the institute longer than she was queen. next year would have seen her reaching her 88 year as a member, and we just feel sad obviously she won't be here to celebrate, obviously she won't be in our january meetings, and

that was the highlight of our year that the queen would always come and take part in the meeting, she loved the meetings. i think mainly because she liked mixing with the ladies in the village many of whom she had known for many years. remember that she had spent a lot of her childhood here. new lots of people from the estate that worked for her father and intern worked for her, she liked being part of it and she took part of the meetings, signed the minutes presented the competition prizes, she like listening to the speakers and took tea with the ladies. we always had three ladies who sat with the queen 14 and she was actively during the tee and pass the case, it was magical. magical to have had her as a member.

>> we talked a lot about balmoral was important to the queen, where she looked at her final days, give us a thought of what you thought it meant to her? >> i think it meant the same to her as well, it was her annual christmas holiday, she came here for six weeks and people in the village would see her either in the early days when she used to ride a horse, i did myself one day when i was walking with my children, you would see her in the car he would zero church every sunday, and in the last sunday of the visit she would always present the prizes to the children who attended the children's church regularly, it was all these little things that she enjoyed. she was a country woman she loved her horses, her dogs, you would often see her out with her dogs as well in the park,

it was just one of those special things when she was here. she loved being here, as much as he liked being in balmoral, it was just a different time, she spent different holidays there. >> yvonne brown a real pleasure to talk to you this morning, thank you for sharing your memories of your queen with us here. >> thank you. >> while yvonne was speaking there we did see pictures of flowers being delayed there, tributes being paid up and down the country, let's speak now to lisa dowd who is in derby, lisa, how is the queen being remembered there? >> well floral tributes at the cathedral like many towns and cities across the uk, she visited derby many times so many people have a story to tell him, i'm gonna take you into one of the local barbers here because the queen actually conferred city status on derby

back in the 1970s, she also opened many of the public buildings here including pride park stadium, the council house, many others as well. shane who is working away this morning -- you were little boy when you went to see the queen back in the 1970s, what are your memories? >> i went down with my mom to see her at the train station, i remember coming in, i think it was in a limousine, massive crowds, my mom lifted me so i could see her. and she was small, and i would small. it was good. >> you are telling me that your mom was a big fan of the queen, what has she been doing? >> she got a big jack in the window saying thank you for your service, rest in peace. she was really upset, she was crying. it has really affected my mom. >> is it part of the chatter

here when you talk to clients? >> yes, it's not normal, is it? it has been different, some people are sad. the majority of people are affected in some ways. >> has it affected you at all? >> we were cutting hair when we heard, he just said the queen is said a client, i didn't think that she was ill, i knew she was frail, we were all quite shocked. there was silence, we said, oh, wow. i wasn't sure how i felt but it made me feel on a motion. sad. >> still a shock -- >> yeah, she had been there all my life and for the majority of other people, we've always had the queen i don't know, it's like a grandparent died i suppose, she's gone. what's going to happen? no one knows what's happening in the sovereign's funeral.

>> did you have a chance to see the address of the king? >> i did. to see him visibly upset that -- was quite touching as those well. i thought that was a good speech, yeah. i think he will do all right, i think it's too soon to see what is going to happen, we will need to wait and see, he has to get over his mom dying. thanks so much. dana talked about the tributes at the cathedral -- -- they will turn us flowers into compost and accomplice will be used in the planting of a memorial tree in the queen's memory here in the city. >> sounds like a lovely idea. lisa, thanks very much indeed. he was on a royal tour to kenya that the queen -- found out that her father had died and she was now the monarch. let me talk who's in nairobi.

alasdair, what's the reaction there to the news of the queen's death? >> good morning, and. as you say, this is where the story of queen started. well two here in 1952. she had escaped for a couple days of peace and quiet with her new husband. and they were staying about 100 kilometers from the capital in nairobi where i am now. it was somewhere called treetops lodge and she went into spend a night in the tree house and someone else who is staying at that lodge at the time wrote that she went in to that trio pretty sense, and came down a queen. her father died, an expectedly. but the news took some time to reach here. not only was it another continent, but she was staying in a remote location. of course this is 1950s, when communication was not anywhere

near as fast as it is today. she was told the news of her father's death by her husband, the duke of edinburgh. that was when she, as a young woman, became queen. a relationship with kenya in the years of her reign was a mixed one. particularly during the uprising's in the 1950s, which means that many of the country here do not look upon her with any kind of fondness. they hold her, rightly or wrongly, as the head of the british state, as been partly responsible for the deaths of thousands of people in central kenya. that's reflected in the newspapers here in nairobi. this is the daily nation, one of the major newspapers. very respectful -- so to the standard of big photograph of the lake queen on the front page there.

if you delve into some of the inner pages in the commentary pieces this is where i will not more in the fall and monarch. -- -- many of the states audit dependence. having said, that they will mark a passing with four days of national mourning. ur d>> i was, sir thanks very m. time to take a look at the morning papers with former -- and former editor of -- welcome back to both of you. we're delving back inside the papers again this hour, ardently? you've picked at a story in the times first of all. a double page spread reflecting on the service yesterday, in

st. pauls, and thousands -- to mark a rare -- quite a moment this. >> you know what, anna? with everything that else -- move down the agenda. it's quite far to the newspaper. -- the amazing picture down to -- the first time the anthem was sung with got some of the king. and it's like, oh, wow. and then insert sinking in a little bit. it's a lovely picture of a mom with a baby sitting in the queue as well. there were 2000 ordinary people that were there, giving their thanks to her majesty. it would've been lovely time to have been there, incredibly moving. it's just worth commenting on --

these lovely images to look at. -- decembers of the family and so on. politicians. not really members of the public -- and it was quite fascinating. >> maybe a sign of how different the monarchy will be under king charles. let's move on to the daily express next. something that you don't think about a first. so many emotions to deal with when you hear about the death of the queen, but they have got an article here that shows -- plans images on so much of our lives. now coins, to our -- >> for 70, years all we've known is the queen on our stands, money, on our post boxes. --
