At 8pm, the country will observe a one-minute silence to remember the Queen
The final day of the Queen’s lying in state is set to take place, while a minute’s silence will be held later to mourn her death.
There will also be a service of reflection near Falkirk, Scotland at 7.30pm. It will see 96 lanterns, one for each year of the late monarch’s life, lowered into the pool of reflection at the foot of the Queen Elizabeth II Canal, before wreaths are placed into the water. The DCMS has said the historic occasion will be shown on giant screens in various locations across the UK – from London’s Hyde Park to Coleraine Town Hall in Northern Ireland. Around 125 cinemas will also be screening the event – along with Sky News, ITV and the BBC for people watching from home.
