Following the Queen’s funeral at Westminster Abbey on 19 September, her coffin travelled in the State Hearse to Windsor where she will be laid to rest.

Ahead of her burial alongside Prince Philip at St George’s Chapel, there was a committal service for Her late Majesty in Windsor.The Queen’s coffin travelled from London to Windsor and along the way, it drove past the statues of her parents, King George VI and Elizabeth, the Queen Mother.The coffin procession went past the bronze statues, which are situated between The Mall and Carlton Gardens, in moving scenes and during the time, Sky Royal Events Commentator Alastair Bruce's powerful words left many viewers at home in tears. "The Queen passes her two proud parents, watching from the side of the Mall," he said.
