Date filmed: Today, 20 August 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. - Information above is according to householdcavalry.co.uk/museum/blog/the-kings-life-guard/ - Have you ever visited the Household Cavalry Museum?

Why is the guard letting these tourist touch & pet the horse?? Clearly, there are new signs being ignored. The Guard needs to speak up loudly and protect the horse from constant man-handling! So what’s the deal?? If they’re afraid to speak up, get them off the horse and put a proper guard up there.
Why are these guards not upholding the new signs? The should be reported for allowing the people to ABUSE the horses, it's cruel and should be stopped.
If this Trooper don't obey the rules, how do you expect the tourists to obey. When you allow one person to disobey and touch the horse, everyone looking on thinks they can do the same thing. Take off the Troopers who allows the rules to be broken. It does not set a good president for all the other Troopers who have to work harder at enforcing the rules.
If there are guards who behave against the new official rule, they should be dismissed! Because they are soldiers, not ordinary workers! They're disobeying orders!
@@damyoung7923 No, you think. Half the Troopers in both Life Guards and Blues are being discretionary. They can be seen on camera. Where is it documented that the Troopers were given ORDERS????? Just Think!!
@@missjoannef4768 Is it too difficult for you to understand? Without the official decision, they can't put the new rule on the wall! Because it's a military facility! Do you want the document about it? Ask them!
@@missjoannef4768 i dont but if the signs are there they should be enforced. On one side the guard wasnt allowing the tourists to touch, the other side the guard alliwed and said nothing. This can be confusing to the toursist. If everyone agrees with no touch all guards and troopers must and should comply
Most of the guards act like there afraid to say anything,I hate watching the videos anymore it all seems like one big scam to make money,I say that is animal abuse on the horses .So so sad.

Lovely to see the kings guards chatting away to each other
@ London Chronicles
I love how you put the date and all your information.
Makes it easy to follow.
Watching all the way from the Caribbean 🇹🇹 ⛅️☀️🌞

How about some restraint, like stopped off area so no tourist can annoy the guards and the horses?

Troopers do a good job the horses are good so just respect them please thank you
@@cynthiamcilroy8340 Alguns soldados deixam a desejar,como esse do vídeo, permite que os turistas toquem no cavalo o tempo todo.Devia ser substituído.
Rules are to be followed.
Congratulations 🎉 on 100K!
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you for your support of the @LondonChronicles RUclips page. I greatly appreciate it. 😃
So glad they have finally reworded those signs.
Seems to be working.
For today.
Awwww. Bye trooper J...😊...❤ Changing Guards.... 👍🤗.........🤠💪......❤🇬🇧❤️🐎❤️🇺🇸
What is wrong with this guard? He isn't saying anything to the tourons that are touching the horse,
All he has to say is please don't touch my horse, he needs to grow a pair. What a chicken s..t.
I agree they should be banned from horses
More signage is needed so everyone can see them
No sólo son maleducados sino que enseñan a sus hijos que ser así es gracioso .
I get so worked up when someone wants to lay the blame on 0ur Guards!!
Increíble momento de cambio de guardia en el túnel , perfecto felicitaciones 👍💂🏻🍀
Zoom in on faces of Guards not respectful. 😕
I blame the Guard He should have shouted at the Tourist The Tourists must be very ignorant Bless the Horses Norah
If there are guards who behave against the new official rule, they should be dismissed! Because they are soldiers, not ordinary workers! They're disobeying orders!
"official rule"????? where is it documented that the Troopers were give any ORDERS regarding touching???????
@missjoannef4768 If it is not official, why do they put the new rule on the wall (including the pictographic sign)? Just think!
@@damyoung7923 No, you think. Half the Troopers in both Life Guards and Blues are being discretionary. They can be seen on camera. Where is it documented that the Troopers were given ORDERS????? Just Think!!
@@missjoannef4768 Is it too difficult for you to understand? Without the official decision, they can't put the new rule on the wall! Because it's a military facility! Do you want the document about it? Ask them!
@@damyoung7923 you are the one complaing. you prove the Troopers have been ordered. They have NOT. They can use discretion.
The walls could use a good power wash!
You must know something about the kings rules that have been kept secret from the rest of us!!!
They want More Ormond s on duty He makes me laugh He does not stand any touching. Norah
Why don’t they just take the signs down the guards aren’t doing their job, what a joke…..
Don’t touch the horse!!!! Finally, where is Karen now??
Déjala donde esté, estará molestando a otras personas, porque ella se creerá muy graciosas,pero no lo es.simplemente,que le vaya bien.
Not all on the tourist the guards could say something and they don't clearly scamming
If a guard can't obey the rules then they shouldn't be allowed out there and be reprimanded
How do you know they were given ORDERS?!????
@@missjoannef4768 i dont but if the signs are there they should be enforced. On one side the guard wasnt allowing the tourists to touch, the other side the guard alliwed and said nothing. This can be confusing to the toursist. If everyone agrees with no touch all guards and troopers must and should comply
Soldiers follow ORDERS not warnings to the public. Mess with reins which control the horse then the shouting will turn on.
That pardon me is bs.
they are not there to babysit tourists. they are working soldiers. tour operators should be held responsible for their groups.
😮where is the story of the women eho got bit
Poliserna måste vara mera alerta
Who is this judgmental commentator who remarks about Military personnel??
More hours of nothing new. Just misleading story.
Please Don't Blame The Guards; the irresponsible behavior is All 0n those shameless dusrepectful tourists.
Their job is to protect their horses! This guy is not doing his job…
Стоит идиотка под знаком не трогать лошадь и лапает ее
Most of the guards act like there afraid to say anything,I hate watching the videos anymore it all seems like one big scam to make money,I say that is animal abuse on the horses .So so sad.
The horses are recognized soldiers. They work an hour at a time. What's abusive about that? They are well kept too.
