COVID restrictions in England mean that only 30 people were allowed to the funeral, including the Queen, her four children and her eight grandchildren.

The coffin left the castle's state entrance in a specially modified Land Rover that Prince Philip helped design, and that was painted in military green as he requested.

Prince Charles and Princess Anne led the procession behind the coffin, followed by Edward and Andrew and princes William and Harry, separated by their cousin Peter Philips who stood between them as they walked to St George's Chapel.
