Date filmed: Today, 27 July 2024. INFO: "The King’s Life Guard The King’s Life Guard is conducted by soldiers of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment at Horse Guards. Horse Guards is named after the troops who have mounted The King’s Life Guard here since the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660. The ceremony has remained mostly unchanged for over 350 years. Changing of The King's Life Guard The ceremony of changing of the King’s Life Guard starts at 11am with the Old Guard formed up on Horse Guards Parade. As the New Guard arrives, a trumpeter sounds a royal salute and the officer salutes. The New Guard forms up facing the old one. Once both lines are still, the corporal major, senior non-commissioned officer and sentries of the New Guard (the first relief) rein back their horses and leave for the guard room to take over their duties, which lasts for 48 hours. The sentries from the Old Guard return to the parade ground and the entire Old Guard returns back to barracks. When the monarch is in London, there is a ‘long guard’ consisting of an officer, corporal major (who carries the regimental standard), two non commissioned officers, a trumpeter and 10 troopers. When the monarch is away, the guard is reduced to two non-commissioned officers and 10 troopers known as a ‘short guard’. Whatever the season or weather, members of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment ride down from Hyde Park Barracks in Knightsbridge to take over guard duties. TIMINGS OF DUTIES The Guard Change currently takes place on: Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 11am. The two iconic soldiers on horses that mount duty on Whitehall at the entrance of Horse Guards change on the hour every hour from 10am until 4pm. This ensures that, regardless of the time you choose to visit the museum, you are guaranteed a captivating spectacle of ceremonial duties in progress. The King’s Life Guard is the name given to the guard duty performed by The Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment at Horse Guards. It dates from 1660 when The Life Guards mounted a permanent guard at the entrance to Whitehall Palace. Responsibility for mounting the guard alternates between The Life Guards and The Blues and Royals. An inspection at Hyde Park Barracks decides which ‘relief’ a soldier will do: the smartest will carry out his duty on his horse and the least well turned out will do longer duties on foot. The guard then rides to Horse Guards via Hyde Park Corner, Constitution Hill and The Mall."

Where are the armed police? Should they not be walking around keeping an eye on the Guards. Instead of standing around just talking, while the Guards get bullied from the tourist. Something has to be done about this, these Kings Guards are real soldiers why can’t they understand that? They are doing there job and having to put up with tourist, bulling them and also confusing the horses, if they just claim they did not understand not touching the reins then they deserve to get bit from the horse. This is terrible how the Kings Guard are being treated.

The situation seems to just deteriorate more and more over time. Maybe closing the whole thing to tourists for a month or two during which time the big head honchos could do some strategic planning as to how to handle these rude crowds and the stress they cause to the horses. No more touching the horses? No more getting within 5 feet of the mounted soldiers? At some point,, the income generated by these visitors should be less important than the welfare of the horses and the soldiers.

Put secure tall fences up.

I think the time has come to stop tourists from being too near the guards and keep them out of the courtyard too. This is in light of what happened to that soldier the other day, you never know when the next strike will be. I really worry for those troopers 😢

Glad you captured the very rude and disrespectful boy and his dad. Just goes to show apples don't fall to far from the tree. They really need to put a stop to the tourist getting around the Guards and Horses tourist are getting more and more disrespectful and aggressive. I have watched several viedos and they show how tourist just dare the Horses to bite them and to try the Guards to yell at them or boot them. They love aggravating the horse and Guards . Those over Horse Guards need to get control of this situation before someone really gets hurt. Like a child or a Guard even one of the Police Officers. I have seen anger in face of some tourist because the officers tell them to get back. It's all so crazy there anyway with all the dumb protests. One Soldier getting attacked. God protect the Guards , Horses Children and innocent Tourist 😢

The ignorance and disrespect is utterly astounding there! What makes people think it's okay to squeeze into the box with a horse and a trooper? / 21:22 - Seriously?! Move along! You got your picture earlier, and then came back for a second one, where you poked the horse in the eye at 18:36! Not only that, but she keeps cutting in front of others to get another photo! Just move along! You're nowhere near as important as you think you are. / 30:21 - Totally saw this coming, as the horse seemed to be getting more and more stressed as tons of people were allowed to press in on him, groping him all over! / 30:40 - The horse bonked the plaque telling people he may bite!!

I detest rudeness

Why do they have to crowd the horse and the guard give them some air

Why did the cop and turn a blind eye to the guy that walked through the box? He just stopped and turned around, AMAZING

That kid was so disrepectful to the guard and the father never pulled him up for it. 5:45 superman young father holding twins patiently waits his turn. 40:12 the stablehand can't quite remove the sign so decides to leave it there. 45:04 MoD officer removes the sign. Please be safe every one. Thanks LC, enjoyed. kiwi 😊

I total agree with the below comments it's time something was done to stop this sort of behaviour. I am all for closing the gates, after all where else in the world would see this behaviour allowed on a Military Establishment.

Are there ANY DECENT PPL IN THE WORLD?

Is it just me or the angle of the camera that makes the signs look bigger and more shiny?

Why are tourists still touching and pawing the horses …

Some people seem to have the need to do the opposite of what they're asked to do. Like two year olds. Alot of terrible twos out again

Look around and there are no armed guards, watch videos and you can see for yourself.

Are there any Caucasian people left in London?
