The coffin of Queen Elizabeth II was paraded through the streets of London on Wednesday afternoon to Westminster Hall.

There, the late sovereign will lie in state until 6:30am next Monday, the day of the funeral.
His Majesty King Charles, The Princess Royal, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward walked alongside each other behind the coffin, with The Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex just behind.
