Prince Philip’s funeral services will be televised across the globe on Saturday.
The Duke of Edinburgh, the husband of Queen Elizabeth II, died on April 9 at the age of 99.
His funeral takes place Saturday at St. George’s Chapel on the grounds of Windsor Castle, at 3 p.m. BST (10 a.m. ET) and will be broadcast in the UK by BBC One, Sky News and ITN.
Only about 30 people will attend the funeral, because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The BBC has a detailed schedule of all aspects of the ceremonies, and reports that the procession to the chapel will begin at around 2:45 p.m. BST (9:45 a.m. ET). Prince Charles will walk behind his father’s coffin, as will grandsons Prince William and Prince Harry (though not side-by-side, we’re told).
The Queen will travel at the rear of the procession in the State Bentley, according to the BBC.
