Television experts predict UK that viewing figures for tomorrows funeral may eclipse the 32 million who watched the Westminster Abbey service for Diana, Princess of Wales.

Around a million people will line the streets of London to witness scenes of breathtaking pomp and splendour as Britain pays tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, the countrys greatest monarch.

With the line at around 3.5 miles long, mourners who have made the last-minute scramble to see the Queens coffin this evening can expect to queue for around seven hours.

At 10.41pm tonight, the Government said it stopped mourners from joining the line to see the Monarch lying in state ahead of her funeral tomorrow.

An estimated million people will line the streets of London to witness scenes of breathtaking pomp and splendour, punctuated by historic moments of sorrow and solemnity.

With military precision, Pipe Major Paul Burns, from the Royal Regiment of Scotland, will then slowly walk away from the gothic Chapel.

The state funeral of Queen Elizabeth will be broadcast live in Bond Square, Bracknell Forest Council has announced.

Her Majesty’s sailors, soldiers and aviators ‘truly loved her’, Bracknell’s MP told the Commons during a tribute to the late Queen.

Large crowds came together throughout Bracknell Forest and Wokingham to hear the proclamation of the new King last weekend.

THOUSANDS of residents tied up their laces to take part in the annual Bracknell half marathon on Sunday.
