An elaborate state funeral is Britain’s final tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, featuring a service at the 13th century Westminster Abbey, where her coronation took place almost 70 years ago, and a procession led by King Charles III through the crowd-lined streets of central London.
Almost 2,000 guests are attending — among them more than 90 world leaders, representatives from dozens of royal families and members of the House of Windsor,
After the funeral, the coffin will go to Windsor Castle where the Queen will be buried next to her late husband, Prince Philip, at St. George’s Chapel.
The Post’s Libby Casey will anchor live coverage of the Queen’s funeral along with James Hohmann, Rhonda Colvin and Sarah Hewson live in London. Hannah Jewell and Lee Powell will be at Westminster Abbey and Windsor Castle. Autumn Brewington, Mary Jordan, Jennifer Hassan, Frances Stead Sellers and Karla Adam will provide analysis and insight.

Please keep this video up forever.
My condolences to the friends and relatives of the audio for the first hour and a half of this video. We can only hope that it has gone to a better place as we force ourselves each day to continue on without it. Rest in peace 1hour, 29minutes and 12 seconds of audio, you will be missed.
Don't need the commentary covering the music and the silences
I was fortunate to watch a live stream that had no commentary whatsoever. Just the sound of the bells, hymns, drums and marching. It was quite an experience.
How about shutting up once in a while. You know this was a funeral, right?
To say, sat Meghan is facing challenging times and racism in the United Kingdom is to far stretched. How about she is facing challenging times because of her own attention and narcissistic behavior.
can not download this why not.

Do they talk over the whole of it
Way to much commentary here. Fail. If you want to watch this properly go to the BBC YouTube page.
The continued talking over the most poignant moments … not respectful
I'm making an observation here, after watching a number of YouTube channels TV coverage posted on here of the Queen's funeral, and also at the risk of annoying a lot of people on here, I'm asking the following.
What is this obsession with news channels and the constant need to talk nearly non-stop through it all, when you can see quite clearly what's taking place with this being a global event, watch by over 4 BILLION people! Are people really unable to comprehend what's happening, and why do you, and others too, always feel the need to constantly talk over the top of things?
Do viewers really need "hand holding" all the way through this, with the constant barrage of waffling!? If so then it really does beggar belief! This was a solemn occassion and it was trashed with constant waffling. Repeatedly, by a good number of channels
As the saying goes: If a picture paints a thousand words… Then why talk over it all!?
Take note from the BBC coverage, they chose the time to make a comment, and to talk to people about the unfolding events, and let the images tell the story
As they say, less is more.
The most watched event, ever witnessed by mankind, that is in the entirety of human history. 🤯
Over 5 Billion human beings heard the message, the word of Jesus Christ – proclaimed from a thousand year old Abbey Church. In the mother language of all modern humanity, east and west.
This Abbey being The place where, every single monarch has been crowned and anointed, since 1066 A.D. The Arch Bishop through apostolic succession as a direct successor to St. Peter. Proclaimed the gospel to all the nations. This funeral allowed the fulfilment of biblical prophecy some may say.
As a 🇬🇧 myself I’m so humbled and proud of all the warm loving and kind words expressed by people of all nations especially our big cousins in America. Touching stuff. I couldn’t be more proud of my country and my late Queen. The nation collectively did her proud. A fitting send off to one of the most remarkable ladies to have ever graced the earth.
GOD SAVE THE KING
stop talking and let us watch
disrespectful to talk over the beginning of the service where Queen elizabeth ii enter the Westminster Abby
NEWS WORLD WILL END IN THE 22 AUGUST 2022
This sounds a bit insensitive, nevertheless, the Queen dies nicely. Her majesty died in Scotland(the country that wants to breakaway from the U.K), this could soften the hard hearts of the Scottish leavers. Also, is a lovely summery, suitable for this humongous occasion…
Remember to keep comments respectful and to follow our Community Guidelines for YouTube
The excess commentary especially during the pipe band displays absolutely ruined this video.
This is the worse coverage. No need for commentary throughout. I'm glad the British broadcasts have more respect and allowed us to listen to it as if we were there. Shame on you.
Good bye ;-;
she is the modern day pharaoh…this is christian idolatry at its best…praise of a human..this is madness..and Europeans think they are the "light of the world"..we all see how crazy you people are…christians worship a dead jewish man and they essentially worship this weird queen

This was a beautiful ceremony and yet so heartbreaking. What was not written on their faces, was written in their eyes. Princess Anne's pain was so deep. Although I'm American, I'm of English, Welsh, Irish, Scottish descent, so have always felt connected to Her Majesty and the people of the UK. She has been my queen also. She became queen the month before I was born. Praying for her family and her people during this difficult transition. Bless them with prosperity and comfort them.
Too much yapping ruined this
Why during funerals they have announcers talking? Such disrespect
6:55:00 awe the Corgis
4:27:50
WHY do Americans need to talk through the WHOLE ceremony. How annoying.
All shallow chitter/chatter.
They don’t shut up 5 seconds 😢. No solemnly allowed even at key moments. 😂
Song at 7:12:10 ?
Rest well Her Majest
How i wish the correspondent shut up for once.
You talked all the way through! 🤡👎
