- HM Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother's ceremonial procession from St. James's Palace to Westminster Hall on 5 April 2002 for the 3 day Lying-in-State before the funeral.
Commentators: Royal Historian Rafal Heydel-Mankoo and John Geiger of the National Post
I was lucky enough to meet the Queen Mother when she visited town several times and was at her Laying in State and funeral processions and see her and the family at Sandringham. She was a truly amazing woman, we idolised her and she was everyones grandma.
Rest in peace Her Majesty The Queen Elizabeth II ❤️🖤
@#JohnnyDeppIsRacist isn't that obvious that the queen or the government paid off the US justice system to prevent prince Nonce Case from standing trial in America..
As a Brit can I compliment the Canadians for providing a top quality broadcast which was veryinformative and respectful. Well done.

Yes it was much better than the BBC
@@StephenRBeet Very much so.
The Great War, The Second World War, The Great Depression and the Digital Age: Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother had seen it all. As a Canadian, I am here to pay tribute to her memory with the greatest respect for her service.
WELL DONE
paul casini
Thank you.
Get real
As an Englishman I thank you for those kin words and I pay tribute to the people of Canada who fought along side us in the two world wars. No better friends do we have than our brothers and sisters in Canada.
A great Queen, mother and grandmother for her dearest. A true example for the UK. Rip Queen mother Elizabeth.
If there is one thing we do better than anyone , it's Ceremony. The Queens send off will be the pinnacle of excellence and an awe inspiring display of solemnity , pomp, respect, and Majesty. And Well deserved when it comes.
And it was :)
Saw the Queen Mother at the opening of the Dornoch Bridge in 1992. Wonderful lady, much loved in Caithness her favourite place and mine.
A remarkable Lady, Queen Consort, & Queen Mother, Amen!
So perfectly presented , as a Brit all that is left, is to thank you for this coverage .
From a Kiwi, God bless her, her daughter and all of OUR Royals.
No country does ceremony better, makes me proud to be British,long live the monarchy.
Nothing like blowing your own trumpet.
Just a note. Pomp and Circumstance is a series of orchestral marches composed by Sir Edwin Elgar. The phrase that the anchor is looking for is Pomp and Ceremony.
I met the Queen Mother in 1994, in HMS Ark Royal. A most gracious and magnificent lady. A moment never forgotten
When the Queen Mother opened Galashiels Academy in Scotland, my Dad, a WW2 veteran, my Mum and me were in Bank Street all on our own when she went passed in a Rolls Royce. My Dad told me to take off my school cap and bow. We got the most fantastic wave and smile from her that I will never forget it. I thought that she really meant it and will cherish that special moment.
MrCagivaman her Majesty never forgot her roots. In the Highlands!
What a wonderful thing
@@tradingforbeginners It's true. She was a Scot - a Stewart who had claims to the Scottish throne. Not a Hanoverian!
MrMacivaman, yesshe did mean it, that's the kind of lady she was, lucky you, your dad taught you well, my mum taught me when a funeral goes by, stand at the kerb, & bow your head till the cortege has passed, to show your respects to the dead, I still doit, to this day,shame its not taught to young people these days, Amen!
@@patriciadavis2506 I do to and I'm so glad to hear that I'm not the only one.
1st: I watch this ceremony from afar, and yet again I enviously must state what an impressive army the UK has with all it´s splendor, traditions and accuracy. I wish not all of ours here had disappeared.
2nd: I wish to express my most grievous condolence for H.M. the Queen Mother. She was a real majesty like the Queen herself. God bless the Queen!
You know this was 12 years ago, right?
shedboy4lyf So it´s too late to comment? Btw read the subtitle, the date is quoted, dude.
S M I never said it was too late. You just seemed to be acting like it happened yesterday or last week
shedboy4lyf I understand. No, i was fully aware of the date, even as a stranger ;) Greez
Canada will miss her, ... RIP ... Mom ..... love you
Speak for yourself ! Leave other Canadians out of it. ty

You'd have got her if Hitler had invaded. They were going to be evacuated to Canada, leaving the British people to their fate. Strange they didn't elect to stay though, given the affinity many of them felt with the Nazis. Bring on the Republic.
@@DokktorDeth It was the complete opposite, you clot! What is being taught in schools, these days?!
I was there to watch this event. it is amazing to be there to witness the
pomp,,,and sense of ceremony. , visited for laying in state and also the
funeral,, Lovely lady,..rip
For those asking, the first march played in the procession is Mendelssohn: Songs Without Words Op.62 no.3 in E flat Minor - Funeral March
Well spotted Sir. I was privileged to be in the Band leading the gun carriage that day. The sense of occasion will never leave me, especially in these present times...
@Cheesy Helmet with the recent funeral of the Duke of Edinburgh.
@Cheesy Helmet Absolutely mate.
@Dan Wruck Prince Philip himself was involved in planning his own funeral service and funeral itself.
What is the second march??
I was in London that day to say goodbyes to the lovely lady.
The Queen Mother, Queen Elizabeth I was such a beautiful women and as her two daughters Queen Elizabeth and the late Princess Margaret have all witnessed so much in this century. Rest in peace Queen Mum.
Queen Elizabeth I died in 1603.
@@daryllmahinay1853 🤣🤣🤣
Our Queen Mother wasn't a Monarch
there are 2 kinds of Queen
a Queen regnant is the Monarch, she has a regnal number
a Queen Consort is married to a King regnant, he is the Monarch. his wife only supports him
You are correct - he did receive a ceremonial.. Winston Churchill was the last person to have a state funeral in 1965.
she was one year elder than my grandmom and lived more than 10 years longer, a legendary woman!
I was fortunate to have met the Queen Mother when I was 8 years old.
Rest in peace your majesty
Thank you for this.It was interesting to view this sad event from a Canadian viewpoint. Just a small point in amongst the speculation about when there was last a comparable event in London....no one seemed to remember the last directly comparable event..... the funeral of the last Queen Consort Queen Mary in 1953!!.
Queen mum was great Queen. lovely lady
Oh yes she was ❤
I Bless Everyone Royal..🌹🇬🇧🇺🇸
I love that the Princess Royal was able to walk behind her grandmother's cortege with her brothers.
Princess Anne did not "walk." She marched! Nobody "walked!"
she or marched walked
she walked or marched
I am not good with words so glad you are, was nice to see the 2 Wonderful great grandsons Prince William and Prince Harry there. As I am typing i heard them saying Queen allowed tradition to be broken to let the princess royal “march”
Thanks
until now I miss you so much, every time I remember you I would cry, May you rest In Peace Your Majesty , I Miss you ..... mom.... :(
A remarkable and grand lady. Memory eternal.
Thank you for beautiful coverage.
God Bless Canada.
Despite the passage of time my admiration for the Bearer Party is as great as ever. A magnificent group of men continuing the fine tradition of the Guards regiments.
they are magnificent at what they do. sharp as a tack.
@@lisabradford8180 They certainly are. The Queen wrote each one of them a personal letter, thanking them for the way in which they carried out the sad duty.
@@mscott3918 that was nice of her to do 😀
The music provided by the military band was excellent. Beautifully done. Reminded me of the funeral procession of President John F. Kennedy in November 1963.
who does pomp and ceremony better than the british? no one!
foxybingo2015 what does chav mean?
foxybingo2015 no, i don't. i get the impression that it's a british term and i'm not british. i'm american.
foxybingo2015 i'm not ashamed of anything i say or of any opinion i have. bye felicia!!
My generalisation: Low class uneducated British people. They are generally uncouth and noticeable for their loud ignorance, which they revel in. Cheap lifestyle and total lack of any notion of class. Living off the state or petty crime in some cases. If you call them a 'Chav' they would not take it as an insult, but a mark of respect.
It is an insult to one that is not a chav. I suspect there is a similarity with the American term 'Trailer trash'
Disagree!
A friend of mine came into contact with the Queen Mother many times professionally. His tales of her true personality belies the myth that has grown up around her.
Oh, I'm sure she was a tough cookie conducting business. One has to be.
May God Bless all whom serve.🇬🇧☘️🇬🇧
Rest In Peace Your Majesty. God Save The Queen
Here's something amazing that I just found out....the widow of Prince George, the Duke of Gloucester, brother of Albert a/k/a King George VI, also lived to the age of 102! She out-lived Elizabeth, the Queen Mother by a few months.Has there ever been another instance where two women who married brothers both lived to be 102?Care to bet against H.R.H. Queen Elizabeth making it to 100?
David Young The Queen Mother didn't make it to 102. She died on March 30th, her 102nd birthday would have been August 4th.
My error. I watched the clip of her passing being announced, and the announcer said she had passed 'in her 102nd year'. Nonetheless, for both women to have lived to see their 100th birthdays has to be a very unique distinction, don't you think?
David Young Yeah, she was technically in her 102nd year but we all start at 0 so our number of years is always one more than our numerical age. But yes, it is cool. It's also cool that even if Elizabeth II doesn't live that many years, in my lifetime I was still able to see the longest reigning British monarch. The greatest percentage of my ancestral DNA comes from Great Britain.
Princess Alice was a member of our branch of the Montagu Douglas Scott family. Lovely lady, very shy and loved her garden. She was not only the oldest member of the British Royal Family, but the oldest of any royal family ever, as far as we can tell.
Still missed so much loved by all us brits.....a very beautiful young heart who felt,thought and cried just like us...her work during the ww2 was impeccable....she even refused to leave London during the blitz etc...
She raised..with her husband King George V1.two wonderful children...her eldest daughter,Elizabeth ( Lilibet)
is now our Queen and has reigned over us for many years. I was born in 1952 so obviously cannot remember but my family are Royalists and followed her and the Firm..ever since!
Rest peacefully Ma’am....reunited with your George....you both will never be forgotten... God Bless. X
Thanks for sharing this I've never seen this before
The funeral procession begins at 30:00
My Condolences, prayers and respect to The Royal Family! Also the same to friends and to all those that suffer a Loss of such a loved one! My Respects and Tribute to this Great Lady! Sadly reminds me of my own beloved Mother who passed from cancer.
My heart goes out to all those that loved this special woman! I also give great tribute to The Queen Mother's memory! With My Best Wishes for God's Blessings to her family with all Sincerity! I hope & pray The Queen Mother had accepted The Lord "King" Jesus as her Lord and Savior, and that God may have prepared a place for her soul in Heaven! With all Respect & Love!
Tra y Mitchell, I believe she did accept the Lord& will go to heaven, Amen!
Dr Ian Paisley said she was certainly a Christian.
A King can have a Queen, But a birth Queen can only have a consort, not a king, this is because a King trumps a Queen in importance and therefore you cannot give this title to a person born not in line.
That doesn’t seem fair.
I would like to see a high definition version with no background talking.
Well presented. Bless you Ma'am
Rest in peace Prince Philip.
Mountbatten did not have a state funeral -- he received a ceremonial funeral.
This was a ceremonial funeral. In state funerals, the coffin is pulled by sailors, not horses - a custom dating back to Queen Victoria's funeral.
Monty was not of the RF, he was Phillips uncle, however so he didn't get the state funeral hype, not important enough.
The hall is where Charles the first an ancestor of mine was tried in 1649.
thanks for sharing. a wonderfull lady much missed
Because he has had a life time of 'training' for the role of Monarch also i think he is a very caring man regarding the country and its people he is out spoken making his feeling know regarding buildings (ugly ones) etc he has fine taste and if he does become King i think he will do more to stop the government making stupid mistakes. Though William im sure will be a fine King
To be fair he did attempt to enter the Royal Marines of which the officer training is as physically tough as it gets for entry requiements in the British military.
Very nice footage. I'm rather pleased at the perspective from Canada. In all, it is superb,
Just had Queen Elizabeth procession yesterday 14th September 2022
It is interesting that the ‘so-called’ experts in the commentating team keep referring to this as “The Funeral”.
It is actually the journey to the lying-in-state of the Queen Mother in Westminster Hall which lasted for a couple of weeks.
THEN the funeral was held
Poor William and Harry having to do this all over again after there mum passed
It’s a part of the monarchy to do it. They get plenty of other benefits.
Rip queen mother sadly missed
Rest In Peace Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother
God Save the Queen god bless the family and friends of the queen!
About 25 years later after Diana and 20 years after the Queen Mother, Phillip and Elizabeth II were both gone. Time flies rather fast just like that.
what about princess Margaret.
If there were any ultimate and epic sounding funeral marches it’s certainly Chopins Funeral March.
Saul's funeral march by Handel tops them all.
@@haydn9600 Exactly, Saul's march is beautiful than Chopin's march! It was the funeral march at the funeral of HM King George VI.
I have a question. How was she able to be a Queen, when It was her husband, George the 6th ascended to the throne? There is Queen Elizabeth the 2nd, yet her husband is Prince Philip, not King Philip.
Queen Elizabeth the 2nd is the Monarch (the King). There can be only one Monarch (King). Therefore the husband of the Queen is called Prince. If he would have the title King than it would be contradicting with the fact that the Queen is actually the King.
Queen Elizabeth (the Queen mother) was a wife to a Reigning King thus she's Queen consort.
Queen Elizabeth II on the other hand is a Reigning Queen thus his husband is only a Prince consort. (Prince Philip can't have the title King because that would mean he's higher in status than the Reigning Queen)
Always liked her and her husband...
I can't believe they took the opportunity to talk and talk and talk and talk instead of just watching the procession and listening to the sad and mournful music. Such inane questions all the time. This could easily have been left to another time. Some people have absolutely no sense of propriety. Is it really important to know now why they are wearing a blue sash ?
50 years after her man King George dead the Queen Mum ! Hard time for Elisabeth II. Her Sister dead in February and just in March her Mother ! ❤❤ we miss you Queen Mum
Queen Mum was great lady
I wonder what she did to live so long she really was an incredible woman no matter what people thought of her she was a very loved Person all over the world she did great things for her country and made sure Britain still had a great Monarch people can't complain about what The Royal Family with their money and stuff like that none of our business everyone got their own opinion on The Royal Family most people and most people don't like them keep it to yourself
If The Queen lives as long as her mother 101 Charles will be 79 when he becomes King I doubt very much he will not be King unless he dies before The Queen if he does live out The Queen and he will by right become King 79 these days is not really old he will most probably have Prince William to help him out.
Or, after the Queen dies he becomes titulair King withouth enthronement and anointment. He abdicate in favor for William. GB could do wit a young King and Queen.
we had the same birthday August 4.
Like her husband and like all US presidents, she participated in the planning of all this. There is always a feeling they have that the rites and ceremony speak to and represent the significance of the position, reverence for the role and what it serves....and not themselves.
no, this is the Queen Mother she died in 2002 Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth is still alive. :)
Queen Elizabeth 2nd die Step 8 2022
I doubt it as she is not the mother of our future King, Prince William so she will not hold the title of Queen Mother if Charles dies first as King and she is still alive she will be dowager consort probably
Family members - Charles, Anna, great-grandchildren - follow the coffin with stone faces. Not a tear! How do they do it?
Charles will be King if indeed he does not die before The Queen Camilla will be Queen consort regardless like it or not.
Sir Winston Churchill got a state funeral too in 1965.
Rest in Peace Your Majesty... Forever missed.
When Charles becomes King Camilla will not be known as Queen Camilla, she'll be Queen consort but will still be called the Duchess of Cornwall
When Prince Charles becomes king, Camilla Will become princess consort Camilla of Cornwall
Nope, the title Duchess of Cornwall is reserved for the wife of the Duke of Cornwall, whih is always the male heir to the throne. When Charles becomes King, William becomes Duke of Cornwall, Catherine will be known as Duchess of Cornwall. Camila will be HM The Queen, unless Parliamentry Act says otherwise. Charles and Camilla have said though that she will be known as Princess Consort. But by law, the wife of the King is Queen.
@@Rens1989 Catherine will be known as HRH The Princess of Wales. She will also be the Duchess of Cornwall, The Duchess of Rothsey & the Countess of Chester. Camilla chose to be called Duchess of Cornwall because of Diana but she is the current Princess of Wales.
Dream. The Duke of Gloucester is in RAF uniform, not Prince Edward.
@@TheKonga88 Sad when you've only got one comment & it wasn't even funny the first time it was posted...
Great symbol of Duty and Commitment for Breat Britain and the British , all Her Live, Destiny called Her to be Socle of the State and the Crown !!!
Quite simple really. The word "Queen" comes from the Old English "cwen" which meant wife. The title "Queen " can only be applied to the single female descendant of a monarch in descent. Similarly the title "Princess" can only be deferred upon the female offspring of a monarch. There was NEVER a Princess Diana! So... I beg that sycophants get their genealogical facts right!!!
Royal Salute- Shoulder Arms,PRESENT ARMS.
Queen Elizabeth is queen & philip not king because it's sexually incorrect - if a man comes to the throne, his wife is a queen corrent. There's no king corrent. The royal family - yes they're loaded with dosh but going through a public funeral must be very hard. They're people....
Consort not corrent for christ sakes
Riveting .....90 minutes of non stop action
No, they just kept saying "the people of Canada" and had correspondents "at their studios in Toronto" for the fun of it.
elizabeth the first lived in the 1500´s.
It’s really frustrating to watch the way they spoke throughout the whole thing and the audio blending music from different ends of the procession, which sounded terrible. Shame 😢
No, because she is technically illegitimate. She already married one man and got divorced. So Charles gave up the throne to William. It will skip Charles. Only the Sovereign and other excellent people can get state funerals. Camillia won't even have a funeral as beautiful and ceremonial as this.
What useful purpose has Camilla preformed for the Crown? She is not entitled to a state funeral.
That must have been embarrassing for Edward not to have been able to hack military training....Philip must have torn him a new one over that...
Actually he didn't. He was totally understanding and supportive. It isn't for everyone.
Does anybody know the title of the funeral march at the beginning of the procession? It's not Chopin's, is it?
It's Mendelssohn's not Chopin's.
Weniger reden der Kommentatoren wäre besser gewesen! Nicht sehr pietätvoll für diese ernste Zeremonie.
Less talk of the annotators would have been better! Not very much pietätvoll for this serious ceremony.
I understand the title of princess can only be deferred to upon the female offspring of a monarch, does that include direct line, such as Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie. I do know that Diana, as with Sarah or Sophie, are EX: Diana, Princess of Wales, or as Princess Michael of Kent. HRH can come before their name but their titles always follow their names or take their husbands? Correct
Im always puzzled by Canada - its seldom spoke of and we hardly get any news from there - it may be that nothing ever happens there but i suspect thats not the reason - its very strange
The golden Vlies from the Habsburgs in Austria and now also in Spain is actually older then the most noble order of the Garter
Order of the Golden Fleece was founded in 1430. The Order of the Garter is older, being founded in 1348.
It was just a video John
Please silence your chords. One will easily talk, if one is anointed by the Creator.
what´s that grey thing in the back at 23:30 ?
what grey thing?
as a king which is higher than queen he was rightful decent and being male in line which then allows he to be queen but as they had female children and now males heirs the queen now is the rightful place her husband as queen and
A king is technically higher than a queen Consort, who holds her rank by marriage. A Queen Regnant, like Elizabeth II is the same as a king.
Did I call on you John ?
Thank you for sharing this!
yes
Don't throw yourself into my court !
Prince Charles looks like his great uncle Louis Mountbatten
God save the Queen of England.
It's the UK! 1707 Act of Union
what's the name of the slow march beginning at 30:06?
It's Mendelssohn's Funeral March.
