The TV viewing arrangements for the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II have been announced.

After the Queen’s death aged 96 on Thursday (8 September), it was announced that a state funeral would be held on Monday (19 September) at Westminster Abbey.

As one of his first acts after being proclaimed as the new monarch, King Charles III declared the day of the funeral a public holiday and a national day of mourning for UK residents.

After a period of laying-in-state at Westminster Hall, where members of the public will be able to pay their respects, the Queen will then be moved to Windsor Castle for burial at St George’s Chapel.

She will be buried alongside her husband, Prince Philip, who died in April 2021.
