Peter Philips looked deep in thought as he walked behind the Queen's coffin during the Sovereign's poignant funeral procession. The Princess Royal's son, ...

As the hearse drove through the gates, Charles could be seen bowing his head with Harry and Meghan stood behind. For William and Harry it will bring back painful memories of when they, aged 15 and 12, walked behind the coffin of their mother Princess Diana in 1997. The route from RAF Northolt to the palace was packed. Hundreds of thousands of well-wishers are expected to line the route as they do so. The Queen's coffin was draped with the Royal Standard and adorned with the glittering, priceless Imperial State Crown on a purple velvet cushion and a wreath of white flowers for the procession to the lying in state. Government guidance says the queue is expected to be very long, with people standing for 'many hours, possibly overnight'. The Imperial State Crown, worn by the Queen on the way back to Buckingham Palace after her Coronation, glittered in the daylight as the crowds held aloft their phones to capture the scenes. Hundreds of thousands of people lined the route but there was a silent reverence as the coffin appeared. The Cross of Westminster was placed at the head of the coffin. A service lasting around 20 minutes will be led by the Archbishop of Canterbury accompanied by the Dean of Westminster. The monarch will lie in state there for four days and five nights until her state funeral at Westminster Abbey on Monday. Princess Beatrice, her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank are also taking part.
