State Funeral Procession of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. 

Thank you.

This was an excellent video pulling together all the different elements - so many bands, the Mounties, the Gurkhas, all the service men and women, horses, the Royal Navy pulling the gun carriage, the cars with the family. An absolutely wonderful job was done by all who marched, looking immaculate and very professional. Thank you for showing this which showed much more that we saw during the main procession.

Thank you for your comments.

Everyone involved in the ceremonial processions throughout the whole mourning period should be so proud of themselves. The massed bands were amazing to watch. .

I think that each band was spread out along the parade, so that those marching would only hear the one band that was leading them that's what understood!

You don’t listen to the music, you listen to the base drum which is keeping time.

Practice, practice, practice

Also they are marching at a pace rarely used

As a child I watched the previous State Funeral in 1965 as a 7 year old. On a very small black and white valve set. Only ever three non royals ever accorded a Full State Funeral. ( not a ceremonial funeral) Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington in 1852 Edward Carson, 1935 Winston Churchill, 1965

you are welcome.

Indeed, the TV coverage offered something different, but this is so stunningly authentic. I come back to it from time to time too, because everything else in 2022 is trash compared with this (well except for the Late Queen and Paddington in the context of the Jubilee Concert, of course).

You're very welcome.

Thank you.

So were we Brits. Your Mounties were more than welcome to lead the stunningly beautiful and impressive parade.

No was not me I'm afraid.

@@MrBaton74 Maybe it was a retired soldier or civil servant.

It matters little who said it. Its beauty and rightness and goodness matters. And the fact that many millions of us were thinking exactly the same...

But that's the point. The country falling apart is evil being sown in the world, while the above was the Holy Spirit's response - in which Her Late Majesty was obviously a very willing participant. He took her (and she "gave up the ghost" at last) to show the world that unity and dignity and love and forgiveness and order are all possible, even in these dreadful 2020s. The day after she was buried, Putin raised the stakes in his awful and pointless and merciless and utter-chaos war, while the government did indeed fall apart. But government is only government, and politics only politics. There are deeper and better and greater things than those, but we have to want to choose good and not evil. Sounds like a no-brainer, but Putin is able to do what he does because he leads a regime built on the love of money, non-forgiveness, judgmentalism, over-exploitation of the Earth, a complete lack of care for the individual, and so on. And many of us are guilty of these evils, even if we would never dream of being barbarous like his soldiers are, even as they are also hopeless canon-fodder victims. The hope now lies in Jesus and all the good and beautiful things that He represents. Her Late Majesty knew, of course, and told us about it more and more in Her Christmas Messages.

@@andrewneighbour9456 thanks

Thank you again.

@@MrBaton74 You're very welcome!

Thank you, Delvin. Great work as usual.

@@theplaneimage You're most welcome!!

The Late Queen was old and died well, as we might say. The tears are at the beauty of the whole thing more than true sadness. Even as there is a recognition that most of what has happened since 2020 (in the whole world) is either scary or trash, or scary trash. The above was neither scary, nor trash. It was kind and forgiving and meaningful and unified and ordered and replete with love and truth ... as about the only thing that was. That is of God, and the Holy Spirit was with it - beautifil, connected things happen wherever He is. The rest of the rubbish is the evil that wants to overcome and enslave us, unless we reject it fully, firmly and finally.

No I don't think so, this was at the top of The Mall, heading down towards Buckingham Palace, think the procession had started up in Whitehall and then travelled down through Horse Guards before entering The Mall.

From here they want down the Mall and past Buckingham Palace to form up for the transfer of the coffin to the hearse near Apsley House there. Direction from there: Windsor Castle.

HM was very involved in the plans for Operation London Bridge. It has been planned for years.

Where in the Commonwealth do the "Scots" come from?

The "Scots" are Canadians, we have Scottish Regiments in the Canadian Army. The bearskin and scarlet tunics you see in the commonwealth contingent are Canadians as well

1776 with French and spanish behind you, 1917 and 1941 a few years late. 😁

The War of 1812 was a draw for the USA at best but not before the 'red coats' had burnt down the White House and the Capitol!

Got a good kicking n the 1812 war when you tried to expand your territory

Another Hollywood historian, is brave heart another one of your favourites.
