consistently remained patient and determined. to many here, the queen is not a but the national treasure. she's given us so much. she has given us her whole life, and ijust rang mum and said, l "we just need to go." what does she mean to you, the queen? i think quite a lot, because obviously we have all grown up with her being our queen, and she has had such a big impact on our lives. she meant quite a lot to all of us. i was a guardsman working outside buckingham palace and the tower and windsor castle. i feel quite a close affinity with the royal family, especially the queen. i've met her on occasions, and ijust think it's my duty to come down and show my respects. when this queue does finally close and the last person files past the queen's coffin sometime early tomorrow morning, it will mark the end of an unprecedented act of collective tribute. attention will then move from westminster hall to westminster abbey for the funeral.
