Hundreds of thousands of people expected to pay their respects during the four days until her funeral on Monday

Queen Elizabeth II’s coffin was taken to Westminster Hall from Buckingham Palace in ceremonial procession, with King Charles and other royals following the horse-drawn gun carriage. It will remain in Westminster Hall until the state funeral on Monday. Thousands of people are queueing to pay their respects.
