Billions of people worldwide are expected to tune in to watch the state funeral for Queen Elizabeth II on Monday. Here's how to follow the proceedings on TV, livestream and radio.
About 750,000 mourners are expected to pay their respects in London, including about 500 world leaders. On Sunday, authorities closed the public line to view the queen lying in state in Westminster Hall at the Houses of Parliament; for days, hundreds of thousands of people had waited for up to 24 hours in lines stretching for miles through London.
Monday’s services will start at 5 a.m. Eastern, with a procession to transfer the casket to Westminster Abbey. The funeral is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. Eastern, and will end just before noon with two minutes of national silence, including a half-house pause in flights to and from Heathrow airport.
According to the BBC, the funeral will be covered by 213 HD cameras, and 14 transmission trucks from 10 locations.
