- Conclusion of the Funeral of HM Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother (Part 2). Procession out of Westminster Abbey. Commentary by Rafe Heydel-Mankoo, John Geiger and Kevin Newmann.
"The children won't go without me. I won't leave the King. And the King will never leave" and "I'm glad we've been bombed. It makes me feel I can look the East End in the face." - HM Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother. Few people can shape the path of history with their charm, charisma and personality. She did so with a few words to a people terrified of their tomorrows. There's a reason Hitler called her the most dangerous woman in Europe. Rest in peace, ma'am. The Commonwealth owes her a debt we will never truly know.
As an American she was well regarded.

@@edmays8737 all around the world she was love and respect
I want 'Oft in the Stilly Night' played on the pipes at my funeral.....someday.
It's most annoying how television announcers feel obligated to describe the obvious and deny the viewer the opportunity to feel his or her own emotions arising from a solemn occasion. In this case, the broadcast crew showed restraint and dignity, and for that - and for your posting this historical record - I am grateful. .
I agree entirely. The BBC coverage of the funeral at this stage is just not a patch on what we have here courtesy of the Canadians. Rafe-Heydel -Mankoo and his colleague, Bruce, leave off commentating as the procession leaves the abbey, allowing us to absorb for ourselves the full power of the massed pipes and drums, and the spectacle both of the bands as they play and the royal family as they stand to attention whilst the coffin is lowered into the car and it then slowly drives off.
I’m always upset when a royal dies because it’s showing I deeply care about them before I become Queen myself. I’m loving my new reign of 80 years as Woody.EXE promised and I’ve warned him that he would go through a lot of deaths and so will I. He almost lost me in 2023 and that was hell for him and he never recovered from that losing his Queen of one year. Woody.EXE Is now coping very well in 2024 as we both prepare to start our Jubliee celebrations for July 20th 2024, my 22nd birthday
The sound of the massed pipes and drums as the coffin is borne out of Westminster Abbey is quite magnificent, and intensely moving. The Queen Mother wanted it so, and the pipes and drums did her proud. The name of the tune, the lament that is played until the cortege leaves the outside of the Abbey, what is it ?
+Scotseasy Oft in the Stilly Night
+Dippers85 Thank you for this information, Dippers85.
Thankyou for explaining why i felt the way i do.
The Westminster abbey bells are so haunting
Dignity. Respect. This is how its done!!
The young coffin bearers did a really good job. The Queen wrote a personal letter to each one, thanking them for the care they took.
They did well considering royal coffins are lead lined, making them heavier than normal ones. 👏
@@123brownjames Yes, they weigh getting on for 1/4 ton. Then there is the false lid on top, hidden by the Royal Standard, which the cushion and crown are attached to.
@@mscott3918 I heard a rumour they (the royals) are buried in their garter robes..is this true? Amazing how these soldiers cope with the weight.
Oh really what a pathetic comments typical useless english chattterrr
@@jernikof better than the American chatter which tends to involve porn, burgers and whether you watch MSNBC or Fox
The tune is 'Oft in the stilly night'
Queen Mum Great lady. was respect and love around the world.
Thank you very much for your kind words. RHM
I LUVVV THE BELLS & THE BAG PIPES :)
Mom said it was too much but Dad and I loved it.I've still not forgiven the old teacher for not letting us watch the funeral on Monday in school.I did see it years ago at the school book depository in downtown Dallas and later on TV 20 and 30 years later.Now is on VHS tape which I have.
Are you talking about JFK?
Or are you talking about the Queen Mother?
Your paragraph seems to be a bit confusing, because this is HM Elizabeth, Queen Consort and Queen Mother's funeral, and you're talking about you and your dad "loving it"
On 30 March 2002, at 15:15 (GMT), Elizabeth died in her sleep at the Royal Lodge, Windsor Great Park, with her surviving daughter, Queen Elizabeth II, at her bedside.
This year marked the 19th anniversary of her passing.
Which would make it impossible for you to have watched it some 20 or 30 years later!!
So you must be talking about JFK, who was assassinated on Friday, November 22, 1963, at 12:30 p.m. Central Standard Time in Dallas, Texas, while riding in a presidential motorcade through Dealey Plaza. Am I correct?
This coming November 22, will mark the 58th year of his passing. So you must've watched that funeral in 1983 or 1993 approximately 9 to 19 years before the Queen Mother passed.
@@justbrowsing5963 I am referring to JFK.I said Dallas and school book depository.I am not talking about London here.You didn't read my post carefully enough.I was 9 when JFK died and my mean teacher wouldn't let us watch the funeral on TV that Monday.We had school too!! Most of the country had the day off from work and school but not my stupid state and town.Dad and I watched TV from Friday to late Sunday night.I visited the school book depository twice,the 2nd time in the 1990's.The visitors center is much bigger and runs the funeral video in the gift shop.I also saw his birthplace in Brookline,MA as well as his grave at Arlington a few times.I saw his original grave with the white picket fence in 1964.
Raise that cross high for all to see for we are a Christian nation
We Brits DO tend to excel at Pomp & Circumstance.
the best of british tradition and culture
GOD BLESS THE QUEEN
The Bach is simply magnificent played... and such a glourious piece of music. Whoever organized the Service know something
It was chosen by The Queen Mother herself, as was everything in the service.
A esposa do Rei George Vl teve um importante papel durante o reinado deste monarca , principalmente durante a segunda guerra mundial. A Inglaterra jamais esquecerá de sua rainha mãe. Deus a tenha em sua glória.
This is far the very best edition for quality and quantity of the late Queen Mother's funeral. It has the best American/Canadian journalists showing the best pacing and content of talking. This is unlike my countrymen who are journalists/presenters that ' excel in endless verbal 'woffle and dribble', ruining the potency of allowing viewers to absorb a major event. Well done to those that know how to cover history with decorum!
SUCH LUV & RESPECT ....DONE W/ DIGINITY....GOD BLESS THE QUEEN MUM:)XX!
When I learned the words to Oft In The Stilly Night, I got goosebumps. "When I remember all the friends once linked together l/I've seen around me fall, like leaves in w8ndy weather."
Yeah, those "friends" were the most powerful people in the 20th century. And she watched them all fall, like leaves in windy weather.
May Queen soul rest in peace
uploaded exactly after 10 years

Love watching movies of the royal family

I was born exactly 4 months after her passing, then I’d become a Queen 20 years later in 2022 when Queen Elizabeth died herself. That tragic Thursday night was surreal for me and Woody.EXE as we dedicated our lives to serving Wales for the next 70 years
I'm sure it was,tho' I was only 3 when he was assassinated so wasn't glued to the screen when his funeral was broadcast.I've viewed videos of his funeral on YT &,yes,it was quite the dignified affair.
the best
love the music
8:02 Oft In the Stilly Night
May I know what is the song tile at the beginning of the video? Many thanks.
It's Bach's triple fugue generally known as St. Anne
Thanks
@@cathaypacific2118 Pleasure
I love watching videos of the royal family
Plz upload princess margreat funeral
It wasn't televised. It was a private funeral at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle. The only bit televised was her coffin leaving on the way to the crematorium.
Shuaib Azam not all royal funerals are public, Monarchs have full state funerals and their consorts have ceremonial funerals
JFK's funeral was pretty close.
@Cheesy Helmet At least we're don't have the same ruler for 50 years.We got rid of Trump!!!!
@@hattiem.7966 The Queen Mother was never the Monarch, her husband was and anyway, the UK Monarch does not rule, s/he reigns. Sorry to shatter your prejudice, but you should know that prejudice incubates ignorance. As for President Trump, he was by far not the worst US President since 1945. There are many contenders for that accolade. Amongst them, Kennedy, Nixon, Johnson, Carter, Bush x 2, Clinton. Obama does not qualify, by a wafer thin margin.
@@archiebald4717 Ahh another stiff upper lip snooty Brit!!I never said she was!!!! Her hubby never wanted to be King.# 45 has really gone off his rails now raving about his buddy Putin.I'm also a very distant relative of your Queen. :)Trump needs to be charged with the various crimes and locked up at Riker's Island.
We miss the queen mother already
Brill.
English tradition.
I UNDERSTAND THAT THE QUEEN MUM....HAD A GREAT SENCE OF HUMOR, WAS GAY & WITTY.....MADE 1 FEEL AT EASE, SWEET PLEASANT WOMAN.....& DEVOTED TO HER COUNTRY & FAMILY....WOULD HAVE LUV"D TO HAVE KNOWN HER....MY REGARDS TO THE QUEEN:S MUM FAMILY.....A VERY SAD LOSS IN DEED....
