i'm sure that that is the royal standard for scotland, which does differentiate itself from the royal, whereas in the one for the united kingdom, it would just one of the quarters, which is an awful lot of heraldry, but there it is one of those points to differentiate, and to underline, the importance of the position of the monarchy in scotland. scotland is a nation alongside england, it is always wrong to refer to the queen of england, or the king of england, he is not, and she never was, she was queen of the united kingdom. and he is king of the united kingdom. the term king of england isjust wrong. since the union of the crowns, the oath that the monarch takes at their coronation is to reign over as queen or king of the united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland and their other realms and territories. there it is, it is always a bit of a model, it is quite difficult to navigate your way through all the, not contradictions, but the complexities, shall we say, of the british constitution. band of the british constitution. and nick, all of _ of the british constitution. and

large crowds braved the rain to watch as the state hearse carried the coffin, draped in the royal standard scotland by the late queen's daughter, the princess royal. on wednesday, the queen's coffin will move to westminster hall, where the queen will lie in state for four days. the new king, charles iii, and the queen consort spent the day in northern ireland as part of a tour of the uk. these are live pictures of buckingham palace right now. you can see it's coming up to 11.30 in the evening, and the queen's coffin is inside for one final night in buckingham palace. this has been the queen's primary residence from 1953. it was a complicated relationship. it was a complicated relationship. it wasn't her favourite resident, but it was the official hq, if you like. 775 rooms. the royal family members are inside this evening — alas private goodbye. —— a last. i'm lewis vaughanjones. this is bbc news. hello there. there was quite a bit of contrasting weather on tuesday. for many parts, it was dry and fine with some sunshine. a lovely scene in cumbria throughout the day. but further south, well

again the royal standard flying from his car, wherever he is. that will fly. full mast. the staff is above buckingham palace, the royal standard never goes to have staff because there is always a queen or a king. there is always a monarch. and as i can tell right now, that christopher directly into buckingham palace. it appears he is not going to be getting out, at least right in this moment. we can perhaps see it later on today. he will have a meeting with many cabinet members. the opposition leader of parliament, as well. i believe prime minister trust will be present. she again already met him for the first time as king yesterday. and she as prime minister, important to remember she has only been prime minister for a few days. a three day old prime minister meeting a one day old king in terms of title. >> casey, we have never had a week like it in british history or i would challenge anybody. then on monday, we had a head of state of the prime minister who had not, not the same head of state this prime minister the saturday. >> remarkable. >> the week start

yes, and i think it was the royal standard of scotland again, we got a sight of it as the vehicle went that is what you would expect. but indeed, they will go to the palace of holyroodhouse and then a little later, as you say, the procession from the palace of holyroodhouse, up the royal mile to st giles' cathedral, with the king and other male members of the family and other male members of the family and the household walking behind the coffin, with the queen consort and others, and there, the royal mile, and many people there already for the procession, not as many as yesterday, but perhaps the numbers will increase. and it is quite a haul up the royal mile, as i recall, if you year's probably since i have been there, and it is always a bit of a problem if you have the cavalry there, because the horses' hooves tend to slip on the cobblestones, and they have to put sand down if there are carriages involved, but on this occasion, there won't be. hand this occasion, there won't be. and we saw nicola _ this occasion, there won't be. and we saw nicola sturgeon, the first minister of scot

you can see the coffin has just pulled back on the raised plank, draped in the royal standard, imperialrown at the he of it. flowers placed on the coffin from the queen's favorite gardens at balmoral, rosemary and lavender from windsor. these things will continue through the day and night, as more and more people make their way in steady procession through the great hall. some of these people at the front of the queue are into the third hour of this lying in state. these people have been waiting, some of them, for two days in some fairly inclement weather here in london. you can see members of the household guard moving away, having completed their vigil. 20 different units were taking turns, six-hourhifts, to guard the queen's coffin until monday morning around 6:00. difficult to say what people are thinking as they file past the coffin. each of them,f course, will have their own thoughts. we have seen some people quite emotional. we have seen some people weeping , servicemen and women who gave their oath to the queen, some just a gentle, and then moving on slowly to the doors of westm

we saw them yesterday looking at some of the tributes -- currently draped in the royal standard of scotland -- these state workers of balmoral can pay their tributes to the queen. people who have been in royal service for many years. they're able to have those moments with her. and then at 10:00, we will see, as you say those six gamekeepers will the estate lift that coffin and carry it through a small dining room to the entrance -- we understand the sovereign paper will play balmoral and glengarden as that happens and then the hearse will come down the driveway. we will see it exit the estate. a symbolic gesture for the staff members. people will vote on the state for many years to be part is what is taking place today. a quiet dignity is how they describe to what's going on inside balmoral, as the journey begins. >> greg milam in balmoral thank you very much. let's bring in our commentator alistair bruce. alasdair the passing of her majesty in scotland has brought in all these extra events into the program effectively. >> yes. and it gives scotland a chance to see the queen of scott sleev

we see the royal standard.his is what we see and note that the royal standard never flies at half staff because the monarch never dies. going back to where you talked about you feel a misjudgment of the queen not to come straight down when diana died. the debate was how the flag wasn't being lowered and argument is the flag should never be lowered even on the death -- only for the death of the monarch. i think that speaks to how the queen is responsive. there's protocols in place and she broke it to let the flags be lowered for diana own how the constitution is adapted over time. >> it was the whole britain that felt it back then and the tabloids and the broad sheets were basically, ma'am, we are hurting. come and hear our pain. as you said she then reacquainted herself with the pulse of the people. >> i want to get out to the crowd there. our colleague nada bashear is there. what are you hearing? >> reporter: absolutely. there are hundreds of people here at green park across the street from buckingham palace.

sure. beats as she goes past the coffin is draped in the royal standard of scotland, which is the flag represents the sovereign in scotland. so once you arrive at the club, southside and the coffin is actually followed by king charles, he's leading the procession behind the coffin. and he is joined by other members of a royal family. once they get ti, sandusky 60 joel, a service will be held there and a vigil will follow in the evening as well and will be attended biking. charles and other members of the royal family. i think it's amazing that every one of these people in this crowd gets the opportunity, as emily says, to bid farewell to you to see the coffin to be part of this it, it says so much about a democracy, although where we're saying good bye to a monarch here, a robin, is it something you want to say about that to, to viewers around the world who may not understand that the connection? well, this is as you know, pump and pageantry we're seeing right now. and the brits rather good at that. i'm, i'm trying to remember the quotation from a very famous assist and constitution as
