Great shot. I'm not able to watch a lot on tv due to time difference, but I love the 365 news feed/documentary!

We've been following all the ceremonies over here too - quite some tributes

It is hard to believe the percentage of residents of the UK who have never known any monarch other than Queen Elizabeth. She has really been special.

It’s not easy following her journey down under but I’ve been glued to the news each night

Cameras and photography are not allowed in the Palace of Westminster as a mark of respect to HM The Queen. To upload a still from the television of the catafalque I feel is disrespectful Phil. Obviously you will disagree as you have uploaded it.

The 24 hour coverage on the BBC is for those who are unable to attend and can have a virtual show of respect, and therefore the rules of no photography should be respected.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Yes, I do disagree with you !

There are pictures of this everywhere, on TV, social media & newspapers. Some people on 365 have said how they appreciate seeing pictures as they don’t have the TV access that we have. It’s not as if you have gone into the hall & blatantly flouted any rules! The coffin has been paraded through the streets - can’t get much more public than that. I think this as a diary entry is fine. As a military veteran I also know you have immense respect for your former Commander in chief!
