I still miss our late Queen Elizabeth, like you said, you felt she would always be here, when the news broke, I cried buckets, it still came as a shock even though she had a long life..thank you for showing such respect, she will always be in our hearts!!🇬🇧🇺🇸
I am a Brit and I was so proud that the beautiful Queen Elizabeth II was not just queen to Great Britain, but Queen to the whole world. She is truly missed, but I feel blessed and Privileged to have been alive during her reign. ❤
She was a special leader who showed us how to stand tall. She was my Boss for the 9yrs I spent in the RAF, and when deployed into Iraq I knew I was ok dying for her, if I needed to, no politician could have ever gained that kind of loyalty. The world is a poorer place without her, and your words summed that up beautifully, we all thought she was immortal.
@DWbo-r7v it's easy look up what they have done for this country. There's plenty of books and literature on the internet. I don't have a pot to tinkle in, but I'm not jealous or resentful of who they are or how much money they have. Thousands of years of history and tradition is something this country and people, all people can be proud of 🇬🇧
Thank you so much for your respectful viewing of the video. Queen Elizabeth is still always in my heart and I was so lucky to have met her. I am still brought to tears watching this. Thank you.
Very respectful comments, guys, I’m tearing up, I was the last civilian at the gates of Windsor Castle on the day of the funeral, as the crowd was silent in tearful sadness and the cannons…. Oh the cannons they were a blasting! My her late Majesty rest in peace ❤❤❤❤❤
God bless you all for your wonderful response to this event. She was an amazing lady, a respected monarch and as you said “an inspiration”. Thank you again.
Thank you for your affection for our queen we also loved her and still miss rip your majesty we will never forget what you have done for the whole world
Can’t get through this video without crying. Losing Our beloved Queen Elizabeth still hurts and always will. Simply irreplaceable along with Prince Philip. We were lucky to have the greatest Monarch ever. Impeccable 70 year service and duty to The Monarchy, her country ,her people and the Commonwealth. ❤️🙏🏼🇬🇧
My wife and I travelled from Cardiff in South Wales to London to see our Queen lying instate, we where in the queue to file past for 14 hrs. We made friends we laughed and we cried and then after 14 hrs of walking through London to Westeminster Abbey, we filed past her coffin. It was very moving.
After this service at Westminster Abbey, this same escort walked with her through London, passed the enormous crowds, waiting to say goodbye. Along the whole route the sailors of the Royal Navy continued to pull her gun carriage to Wellington Arch at Hyde Park where she was transferred to the Hearse. Accompanied in a separate car by her daughter, Princess Anne, they then drove our Queen slowly through the traffic free roads all the way to Windsor Castle and to her place of rest with her husband, her mother and father and her sister. Crowds, many, many people deep lined the route. It felt like the whole of her people had come to say goodbye. We were very lucky to have such a wonderful Queen for so many years. We have a good King now, her son, but we will miss her always. Thank you for your very respectful Reaction. As always it was perfect. Thank you.
The tune played by the Scottish Bagpipers was one of the Queens favourite tunes. It was called SLEEP DEARIE SLEEP which is very fitting for her final long sleep. Not long before she died she said that soon she will be re-united with her beloved Prince Philip and would le laid beside him for eternity.
That was the lament played by her personal piper at the very end of the Westminster Abbey service. The tune in the video is MIST COVERED MOUNTAINS. The lament played at the end of Prince Philip's funeral at Windsor was the traditional military lament Flowers of the Forest which is also played every Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day to remember those fallen in action.
@jacquieclapperton9758 Flowers of the Forest was written to commorate the disastrous defeat of the Scottish army by the English at Flodden in Northumberland on the 9th September 1513. So many Scots were killed there was hardly a family who had not lost a man including of course King James IV and most of the government and leading figures. Scotland never really recovered from the defeat and it set the country back economically as well as culturally 100 years.
Such a blessing to live in a Constitutional Monarchy. The Sovereign is the stronghold of the nation and the unifying force when politics are in turmoil. It's like when everything in the government is in chaos, we look to the Sovereign for stability. The system safeguards the country; it prevents a tyrant king and a politician who thinks he is a king. God save the King!
I felt a huge sense of peace that our beautiful Queen Elizabeth ll had come up here to her beloved Balmoral in Scotland, a place that she treasured her whole life, and that this was where she passed away. Each part of her funeral held traditional symbolism, down to the removing of the Crown, orb etc., from her coffin, the breaking of the cane/stick. All of it held a meaning for them doing this - down to her own Piper at the very end, playing the lament as he slowly walked away in the gallery. He would play each morning to her outside her bedroom window for 15minutes.... I miss our Queen dearly - RIP Ma'am with your beloved husband Philip.
I wept when the news broke that Queen Elizabeth II had passed. 😢. I was glued to all the coverage for the 10 days of mourning and the funeral. I shed tears everyday and felt exhausted by the grief after the funeral. It took by surprise how deeply upset I was. I have been lucky enough to be able to visit where she lays in peace with her family and beloved husband in St George’s Chapel in the grounds of Windsor Castle. RIP❤️
God bless you all, you see her clearly, if she could hear your words it would make her proud. Your lovely people, thank you for your beautiful reaction 🙏
As soon as the pipes started up and the procession started moving it was such an emotional experience. But a very fitting tribute to someone who served her country and the commonwealth for her entire adult life and someone we will never see the likes of again.
Will be straight up, as a brit I've got no time for the monarchy but I tell you what, that was spectacular and the bagpipes are fantastic when you hear them played like that.
I watched the funeral like many people and it broke my heart but it was also an amazing event full of love and feeling there were no wrong footings ...I still miss her
Bless you for showing such respect for our beloved Queen Elizabeth II. She earned every ounce of the respect shown that day and her last journey breaks me every time.
I never expected, over two years after Her Majesty's death, that I would find a video like this where five wonderful, respectful young people spoke in such beautiful terms about our late Queen. However, I'm not surprised: I'm a white British person who has many wonderful friends who have moved here from Nigeria. I have the utmost respect for all Nigerian people. ❤
54 yrs old and I only knew her majesty as our monarch, a monarch so beloved around the world that even supposed enemy countries citizens showed deep respect, a monarch who never ever in her reign had any controversies, she reigned with dignity she gave respect to everyone, she showed her dignity and bravery when the madman managed to get into her royal bedroom while she was in bed, instead of panicking she calmly spoke to him he sat on her bed for a long time before help arrived, that one interaction showed us that calm dignity and bravery her royal upbringing has instilled into her, my heart bleeds even now the world may never see a royal personage as loved as her majesty queen Elizabeth the 2nd. GOD BLESS QUEEN ELIZABETH.
Sorry for what, Papa? Interrupting with a respectful statement? No apologies necessary. Like others, I have noticed, you have nothing but respectful words for her Majesty. She is Immortal, just imagine what the history books will say about her in years to come. Merry Christmas 🎄 From Yorkshire
My mum was a fan of the Royal Family and what they stood for. Thought she would like The Queen tv show on Netflix so showed her the first episode where King George V died. She was so upset she refused to watch it again. WW2 generation, she died a year before the Queen.
GUYS I HAVE BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO ENTER LAST YEAR WINDSOR CASTLE ...AND SEE WHERE MY BELOVED QUEEN ❤️👑😭😭😭🙏🏻👍🏻 IS BURIED ...WHAT A WOMAN , WHAT A LEARER .....EVEN OUR IING CHROES CAN;T SPEAK HIGHLY ENOUGH ABOUT HER 👑❤️😭😭🙏🏻👍🏻
I was one of the people that joined the queue to pay our respects to our late Queen., it seemed to me that for all the service she had given it was the right way to say “ thank you”. I was a bit apprehensive at first because the route had been closed for a while due to the numerous people who had turned out. I made a decision that I would check to see how long the route was, it was 5 miles and so I made 5 small bags with a sandwich and a bit of food in each for every mile. I had no idea of the timescale so this was how I planned my way of getting through things. I travelled up to London by train for me it was about a 50 minute journey, got to the station and asked where do I go? A member of staff gave me a map of the route and directions of where to go to, it took almost 2 hours to get to the start. The walking was not the problem but the constant zigzagging for about 30 minutes, once by The Thames we literally went on an unescorted tour of London. Every 20 or 30 minutes they stopped to change the guards at Westminster Hall. It was surprisingly mild which was a good thing. My sandwich bag system worked quite well and some people were giving free food out. I couldn’t get over how well behaved folk were,everyone was helping folk stay in groups if they stopped for toilet breaks and the like. As it got dark things took on a different perspective but not in a bad way. There were some people who were volunteers and they did a remarkable job keeping things going well. Eventually we were close to Parliament and had the zigzagging again before we were searched and went into Westminster Hal, the military were extremely busy but made it work well. At about 3am I got to pay my respects to our late Queen, I gently whispered “Thank you M’am” and then exited. It was a day I won’t forget and the death of Queen Elizabeth was a day that changed the world. One thing I have tried to do,is learn to see the best in people, not always easy but it can be a positive thing. My late father was in the RAF and I have his Royal Warrant signed by Queen Elizabeth. The world is now a different place but we can all make a difference. Sorry this is long but I hope you will forgive me.
Really wish i could’ve joined the british army under queen elizabeth. Worth her weight in gold and a beautiful soul. I start sometime next year. Proud to serve my country despite peoples own beliefs of the county
As a Brit I was very, very sad when I heard the news that our Queen had died. It was like being told that one of your Grandmas had died. She had just always been there, certainly for all of my lifetime and for that of most of us here. Even now I have to check myself when talking about things like the names of Royal Navy ships which are now called HIS Majesty's Ship as against Her Majesty's Ship. Anyway, the Queen is dead and life moves on. Long live the King! 🙂
The tradition of the Royal Navy pulling the gun carriage began with the death of Queen Victoria in 1901. She died on the Isle of Wight and the horses pulling the coffin panicked at the steep road to the harbour. Prince Louis of Battenburg, who was married to one of Victoria's granddaughters and who later became First Sea Lord (head of the navy) and first Marquess of Milton Haven, had sailors pull the coffin instead and it's been the Senior Service's honour to do that ever since. The ones at the front pull and the ones at the back act as a brake. The six tall men just in front of the coffin are carrying the heavy pole which would be normally attached to the harnesses of the horses. This was the first time that naval women were part of the gun crew, though they had been part of the guard at the funeral of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. The officer in charge is a female naval officer right at the front with her sword reversed under her arm. The King and the Princess Royal are also wearing naval uniform. Funfact: the Royal Navy (including Royal Marines) was the only British armed service to change both male and female uniform to be identical (except of course for differences in cut and fit) throughout the service when women were integrated. The male uniform had the jumper with sailor collar open almost to the waist which would have gaped on women so the neckline was raised.The only difference you see there is the traditional tricorn hat worn by female officers and senior non-commissioned officers, as worn by the Princess Royal. The army and RAF women lining the streets with rifles are wearing skirts though those in the bands and on horses were the same regimental uniform as their male counterparts. All very appropriate for the first British female royal to serve in the armed forces.
We thought The Queen would be with us forever. The world mourned The Queen like no other. Her very unique position, becoming Queen at such a young age g age, in a very much man’s world admired and respected by everyone all over the world, heads of state, prime ministers, presidents, Emperors, Royalty ,she met and knew them all. The soft power the Queen/ Royal have is far more influential than the aggressive style so many have.
The Glasgow Rangers Supports tribute to the Queen was amazing, the club was told the couldn’t play the national anthem Before a Europa league match But the fans had their own plan ruclips.net/video/WK4zpss4nDc/видео.htmlsi=jKj4iMaopYg0wEf0
This hurt me as if my own mother had died! I was born in 1963, just like my own mother, she was there my whole life! Edit, having now watched the full video, thank you for being so respectful. It means a lot!
Watching this, it almost looks like there was nobody there. Years ago the streets really would have been packed, if this happened in the 90s, the crowds around the streets would just be unbelievable and they would have been fairly close to the proceedings. How sad is it that today, due to terrorism and violence in crowds, we cannot do that anymore?
@@fullenglishbreakfast3289if you read my comment in full, I said it looks like there was nobody was there. There is nobody in close proximity to the procession other than those required. The crowds are kept WELL back from it. This would not have been the case 20 years ago.

You would had to have been in your late 70s to remember another monarchy on the throne. Let that sink in
She was a constant in my life.
I was a weeping mess, mother of England 😭❤
She was expert at taking billions of pounds and giving very little back
I watched every minute of this on TV with big pots of tea and cried all the way through. Walk in Peace your Majesty

I was there on the Mall as they marched down
The carriage that the coffin sits on, is actually based and maintained at HMS Excellent / Whale Island in Portsmouth, UK.
She was "ICONIC"
We all hoped that she would always be there 😭 our greatest queen.
How heartbreaking knowing her grandson made her last moments on this earth pure hell. Pray God forgives you Harry!!
God may forgive Harry, but I never will.
@gtaylor331 absolutely, me neither nor his wife!!
Same as with Philip, he must have been so sad, to see what Harry was doing to them. The UK will never forget nor forgive.
@vallee3140 Hear Hear👏👏
Harry will never be forgiven - neither him nor his wife
We loved our Bess she was a marvelous influence on all of us
there will never be another like her.

😢😢😢❤️
Forever in our hearts ❤❤
Our true Queen
At about 8:28, the people in black suits were her bodyguards. They guarded her all the way to her final resting place
The tradition of the Royal Navy pulling the gun carriage began with the death of Queen Victoria in 1901. She died on the Isle of Wight and the horses pulling the coffin panicked at the steep road to the harbour. Prince Louis of Battenburg, who was married to one of Victoria's granddaughters and who later became First Sea Lord (head of the navy) and first Marquess of Milton Haven, had sailors pull the coffin instead and it's been the Senior Service's honour to do that ever since. The ones at the front pull and the ones at the back act as a brake. The six tall men just in front of the coffin are carrying the heavy pole which would be normally attached to the harnesses of the horses.
This was the first time that naval women were part of the gun crew, though they had been part of the guard at the funeral of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. The officer in charge is a female naval officer right at the front with her sword reversed under her arm. The King and the Princess Royal are also wearing naval uniform.

All very appropriate for the first British female royal to serve in the armed forces.
what happened to the lone piper at the end , the most moving tribute of all?
We thought The Queen would be with us forever. The world mourned The Queen like no other. Her very unique position, becoming Queen at such a young age g age, in a very much man’s world admired and respected by everyone all over the world, heads of state, prime ministers, presidents, Emperors, Royalty ,she met and knew them all.

The queen was the one good thing in the UK now she gone we are nothing 😢
And seeing the Coffin was Lead lined, it must have taken some pulling.

Watching this, it almost looks like there was nobody there. Years ago the streets really would have been packed, if this happened in the 90s, the crowds around the streets would just be unbelievable and they would have been fairly close to the proceedings. How sad is it that today, due to terrorism and violence in crowds, we cannot do that anymore?

@@fullenglishbreakfast3289if you read my comment in full, I said it looks like there was nobody was there. There is nobody in close proximity to the procession other than those required. The crowds are kept WELL back from it. This would not have been the case 20 years ago.
I was bereft when I heard she’d died, even though we knew it had to come.
