so far it is beautiful and godly!!!!
Yes, that was amazing, the shot from above.
A Catholic Cardinal praying at the funeral of a British Queen... it once would have been unthinkable.
I think Trudeau did as Canada is commonwealth. Biden got an aisle seat possibly so he can’t distract anyone.
Not all change is for the worse.
the crown seems to have collapsed on the coffin. i would have thought there would be something under it
At some point it’s going to have to be removed from the coffin. It’s next job is Chuck’s coronation.
The Imperial State Crown is resting on a purple cushion. I can’t see any sign of collapse.
Biden one of few allowed to arrive by helicopter to Queen Elizabeth’s funeral
President Joe Biden will be one of the only world leaders allowed to use his helicopter in London when he arrives for the Queen’s funeral, The Post has confirmed.
The Post is told that the President will be guarded by hundreds of security agents, with 100 alone focused on guarding the helicopter, which is dubbed ‘Marine One’ when Biden is on board.
US Embassy sources this week told The I newspaper that Biden will travel with “his usual security detail,” which is made up of around 400 Secret Service officers, and will make him the most highly guarded person at the state funeral on Monday.
Foreign leaders were asked to fly to the UK by commercial flights and were told they would be taken to the funeral by escorted shuttle buses due to the tight security and road restrictions.
However, Biden is set to arrive on Air Force One and will be allowed to ride in the 6,800kg bulletproof presidential limousine, nicknamed “The Beast,” to the funeral at Westminster Abbey for security reasons. “The Beast” will be flown over in a separate military cargo plane.

crown seems to have been fixed..its not caving in
i think charles uses a different crown. it’s red
you can see it in some of the shots..it was caved in...like too much weight from the jewelry on top
they just had a shot of it..maybe it is suppose to look like that..to me it looks caved in
Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, stunned by President Joe Biden’s ‘long fart’ during chat
While attending the summit to talk about reducing emissions, the president reportedly produced some gas of his own.
It caught Camilla off guard, so much so that she “hasn’t stopped talking about it”, a source told The Mail on Sunday.
“It was long and loud and impossible to ignore,” the source said.
“Camilla hasn’t stopped talking about it.”
The crown will be removed at Windsor.
The King will most likely be crowned with Saint Edward’s Crown, not the Imperial State Crown which is being seen at the funeral. This particular Imperial State Crown may or may not be used at the Coronation as a secondary crown - unlike Saint Edward’s Crown, the Imperial State Crown is periodically remade.
I loved the trumpets and bagpipe.
The crown we are seeing at the funeral is the Imperial State Crown, which is the secondary British crown.
Saint Edward’s Crown is the one that is normally used to crown a King or Queen. It also has a purple cap, although red is used on heraldic representations, so people often expect it to be red.
i guess it is suppose to look like that...where it caves in there is jewelry dangling on top
They do it well.
So true.
Thanks.
