Wonder. Royal celebrations weve been to. Together weve been to the royal weddings and the jubilees. This is the final moment of her reign, such a great rein in which the british more arky is as the most popular its ever been. It is interesting in this country we saw Prince Charles and diana in a carriage going down the mile. If you have been alive over the last 50 years, youve grown up with the royal family. Their travails are things you have followed. Their marriages, their deaths. I think for people in this country there is this sense of belonging to these people and sort of relationship to them even if theyve never met them. They are always there.

Abbey where the late queen was married in 1957. And crowned back in 1953. When she was just 25 years old. Her astounding 70 years on the throne saw a world transformed. From scientific breakthroughs, world war ii, to a changing monarchy. And to her own changing family. Yet, threw it all this remarkable woman endured. Through 14 american president s, 15 british Prime Ministers, through financial crisis and, of course, the troubles through the rise of the internet and the fall of the berlin wall. In a few minutes, the royal navy will begin a procession to transport the queen from Westminster Hall where she has been lying at rest. Queen elizabeth ii led her people for over seven decades on the throne. She was 96 years old. The longest reigning monarch in british history. Along with joe, willie and me, we have u. S. Special correspondent for bbc catty kay. Its wonderful to be with you early this morning as we cover history in the making. Lets set the scene. Last night i posted a picture of

the one minute silence has been observed on the eve of the state funeral for her majesty queen elizabeth ii, and across britain as we saw there people eager to show their respect and indeed to think about what tomorrow represents, and judith and giles are still with me for a final thought as we look ahead to tomorrow. what do you think tomorrow, judith, will mean to people, as a day of remembering and giving thanks? will it touch millions of people as some people predict i would very much think it will be a beautiful day and we will see all the wonderful thing that can happen in music and the wonderful abbey, and i think also an important moment for us to realise we will not be seeing the queen again. she won t p0p up, seeing the queen again. she won t pop up, as she so often did, even in the last year doing some delightful things like cutting a cake at the wru or something. she has died and this is our real moment. yes, wru or something. she has died and this is our real mom
