God bless you both. God save the King.

We love you both, thanks for all your videos. x

Your reaction is testament to how Her Majesty impacted the world - beautiful reaction. I'd be interested to see what you make of the service at Westminster Abbey, the following procession and arrival at Windsor. Rest in peace, Your Majesty. God save the King.

Thank you for yours as well

Thank you so very much. Xx

Absolutely agree. And no we will never forget what she did.

Hardest working member of the Royal family, the Princess Royal is amazing

Princess Ann took a huge of the shoulders of King Charles during a difficult time for him. She was amazing.

She must have been busting to go to the toilet but still managed that curtsey? She's in her 70s, how did she manage that?

I’ve always liked Anne. She’s got spunk.

During the funeral of Queen Victoria the harness broke on the gun carriage. Navy personnel stepped in to pull the carriage and the tradition stuck

My late Mother and Father would have loved to have seen this, both being in the Royal Navy, mum as a Wren Telegraphist and Dad was Gunnery Branch.

My late dad was a RN vet and one of my son's is RN vet. So proud of the Navy guys & gals today, it was an honour to watch them carry out such an honourable task. We done

@@monicasyratt2117 I was one of the gun carriage crew for Mountbattens funeral in '79, you cannot even begin to imagine the pride I felt watch the new generation performing such a emotional task. I for one in '79 was almost in tears the whole march.

@@martinswiers6653 bullshit,the horses were unruly and after the funeral it was decided not to use horses again,navy are used because they are the senior service.

Wow

My mum has dementia, the integral spirit remains, my love to you and your mum xx

Ooof, that hits. It feels like our people and identity are dying.

Lot's of love to your mum mate.

OMG! Sad and wonderful at the same time, the greatest generation! Love and best wishes for your Mum x

She was a once in a lifetime queen rule britania God save the queen

Too often people across the world like to voice and highlight the differences in their own countries, their cultures and their way of life. Too often these differences are used as a way to criticise and to belittle others and state how their country/culture/way of life is the right way, the best way and anything else is inferior. However, at moments like this we all realise that fundamentally we are all the same. We all have hopes and dreams, we all have sadness and grief, we all want what is best for ourselves, our families and our countries. The Queen was a uniting force for many across the world, she acquired the reign of the British empire upon the death of her beloved father. The Queen became the figurehead of an empire that had been formed by some of the worst atrocities the world had, at that time, seen and bore. She, being of good standing and of heart, welcomed the world and those nations that wanted to have their own independence returned to their people. She did not want to be a figure renowned for war or genocide. She often apologised for the actions of her family and ancestors. She embraced individuals, their cultures, their lives and their beliefs. She didn't always get it right but no one does. No one is perfect. It's not often a death of a head of state gets the outpouring of grief, the condolences and the acknowledgments of her accomplishments from all across and around the world as she has. Messages of support and acknowledgement from those whom would usually be considered "an enemy of the state". Queen Elizabeth II was one of a kind and the world is a poorer place because she is no longer here.

@@conorodowd-qh9buStupid comment. A Trump voter, by any chance?

Super nice that Dr Biden and her granddaughter represented the USA at the Kings Coronation. No USA president can go to a royal service because of security reasons. Was very happy to see the ladies

Forget even the queen involved (I know you can’t), just as friends as a Northern Californian American who’s 28. You are are mother country, we have been friends for centuries and I hope not just centuries but for millennia. I’m an American so I dislike and suspect monarchy and for good reason but we would be where we are without a lot of the traditions of liberty we have without mother Britain. Sorry we had to throw you off, we were sick of nibbling on mamas tit 😜 I have family that fought in Ww2 and the uk soldiers were our brothers, and again, I always hope that’s true. No more burning down the white house like in 1812 please 😏

As a young scotswoman, I completely agre! :)

I love watching your blogs , this made me cry .

I respect you all. Some scots sometimes think UK means England, which is just so untrue. UK means England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. I think its just kind of silly, the dislikes are probably from those people.

How true - thank you.

Absolutely. I am British and no one does pageantry and ceremony like we do. X

Absolutely, we are very good at it ❤

is there anyone who comes even a long distant 2nd?

Thankyou so much for your wonderful comment

Wow

@@marynorth7988 Thank you

We are proud of him

Totally agree, we loved the Queen because of her kindness. The last time she came here, people threw eggs at her. Disgusting behaviour, l was appalled

I thought she was immortal

We all must go, no one is immortal

We certainly do. 🇬🇧

As a very proud ulsterman, I second every word you say. God save the king!

@Peter You are nobody to question peoples feeling. Grow up!

He's been blocked

I'm 61. And have seen trooping of the colour etc. And cried watching the funeral for our beloved monarch Queen Elizabeth 2

The Queen was that rare that, a true leader. There are no politicians, of any party, who are now.

It's just not the same without her. I still feel empty.

The Queen was the unofficial Grandmother of the nation.....

And Scotland did her proud, thankyou

​@@truckerfromrenoonly just seen this clip & read your comment, i too can't get my head around the fact she's not here anymore, i will always miss her, God bless her former majesty Queen Elizabeth the 2nd, 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❤

@ ROBERT CLOTHIER BLESS YOU MY BIA (RM 1960'S) THE OATH IS FOR LIFE.

I think the greatest respect to pay the Queen from any Commonwealth Country would be to Not leave the Commonwealth. UK🤞AUS

@@mosthaunted2 well said ....my dad passed in 2016 from asbestosis picked up in the navy in his time from 1950 to 1976 . if he can give n keep an oath all aussies should

Same here Ex Household Cavalry but we took the same oath. God save the King

@@rcollas4795 Military wise yes, but no Country took an oath to be in the Commonwealth, they're there because they want to be, We are all safer & stronger together, both in Military terms and Politically 🌎

I’m English. Thank you for your kind thoughts. 🇬🇧❤️🇺🇸. RIP dear Queen Elizabeth II and God save the King xxx

Kind comment. Thank you.

Justin. This was a lovely comment. The queen met 14 presidents. The United States stood with us when we faced the Nazis. We died together defending freedom in Europe. She is your queen as much as ours brother.....Coming from a proud British man.

Thank you so much Justin. I was born & brought up in London England by Rep. Irish parents. Sounds crazy but i truly loved & respected our Queen. It's so wonderful to know you feel the same way fellow American Cousin. The American's certainly deserve to call her their Queen if they so want. You all certainly deserve to, the way you looked after UK and rest of Europe. So pleased we are allies. We do know over here a lot of Americans grieved Queen Elizabeth 2nd. So pleased we stand together in our grief. Thank You.

She was everyone’s queen :much love ❤️

That's very kind of you. Thank you ❤️

@@TheNatashaDebbieShow You two are a truly wonderful caring couple that shows great compassion in all of your posts. I deeply thank you both for this post which brought many tears to this old Scotsman's eyes.

You two are wonderful.

Yes totally agree you are both great thank you for your respect

Thank you both for your kind thoughts and comments it's a shame you couldn't show the March up the mall with all the public out paying their respects you will never see a better sight.

Thank you for your service ❤️

Likewise Phil, normally we would expect the matlow's to be a bit on the scruffy side, but give them their due they were all excellently turned out and carried the carriage brilliantly. Well done the Senior Service 👏

as ex RAF i reluctantly agree

I'm so very proud of our forces they're the finest in the world and nobody does pomp and ceremony like we do.

I am a 23 year Army vet and I agree with you100% well done to are armed forces

🇬🇧😢

🇳🇿 💚

Proud to be British.

A year later and I still sob... she was a magnificent woman worked during WW2 and was always dignified, the loss of her father meant she would never abdicate the Crown. Queen Elizabeth II was the best of this nation and held us all together.

Thank you so much for your service.

I hope the new King gives them some recognition for the amazing job they did thought out carry HM from when she came back from Scotland

Did you know that the Queen herself mapped out her funeral herself God bless her. Thank you ladies from the UK xxx

Hey, and a respect to you Exmil. You looked after our Queen my friend!

Well said from a Londoner...

You should go back for the procession from Westminster Abbey , passing Buckingham Palace where her staff came out unexpectedly to honour her. It was so amazing.

Yeah, would love to see a reaction of the military parade part

be fair, they have said they will go back and watch - there was a lot to see.

Did a marathon viewing of the whole almost 10 hr. live broadcast, sandwiches and flask of coffee by my side and the laptop with the live BBC youtube upload on just in case the satellite signal was lost. (It was about 15 seconds behind the TV). I had even thought about and arranged for comfort breaks without having to miss any of it. I doubt if I will ever witness another, well I hope not. Looking forward to the Coronation of Charles III, I imagine sometime in the next 12-18 months, too young to remember the Queens one.

why cant people like you ever speak for yourself? i didnt love someone who couldnt give a shit about me

Yes thank you ladies.

Jane Fowler l agree that our Queen will be greatly missed, but the babies and young children of today will only know Kings, they will learn about her about her at school and through the media, but she will pass from living memory, some people who were small were small in 1950 only know of King George VI, because of history, documentaries and the media

@Silver Fox l didn't mention those who knew our late Queen personally and learning about her from history books is not remembering her and l was a huge fan and a lot happened during her reign but a constitutional Monarch is head of state in name only, they only have a ceremonial position

@@lsmith9249 I was 12 years old and although we didn't have TV or, at that time, all the media information that we've had of our Queen, when I came from school and was told by my grandmother 'The King is dead' - I felt a veryh real shock and was sad. Knowing and seeing so much more of our Queen, yes it's even harder. I keep remembering her saying in her message during Covid 'We will meet again'. I'm sure her words, spoken with conviction, are absolutely right.

It breaks my heart, each time to see this special ceremony. Reminds me of my beloved Maternal Grandmother. I had to bear my beloved Maternal grandparents coffins last year (March 9th 2021) yes they were committed together

​@@martinconnors5195 I'm sorry for your loss. 😔

Ditto😥

Thank you I didn’t know that

When he walked on his own at the end 💔 RIP QUEEN ❤🕊❤

I think the final tune,he played,was called ‘Sleep,dearie,sleep’.It was heartrending.

Such a beautiful song. I couldn't stop crying. We've all got Scottish-ness inside. Not ashamed to cry when hearing this song

That was the most moving thing of the whole ceremony. Absolutely no words to describe the dramatic intensity of it.

Well said

@@TheNatashaDebbieShow I wouldn't normally subscribe to a blog like yours but I must admit that i find your candour and attitudes very refreshing. Keep up the great work.

What a load of utter nonsense

Always been 'My Queen' in my life time, now she has gone, It will My King's dutyt to continue to do so..God save our King..and Ps Englands Women's football squad are the best in the World easily

She was never the Queen of England. She was Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

@@sutty8526 Yes, I think more than 500 years old! Though there I have my doubts, as because of that treaty we had Wellington here helping us to defeat Napoleon troops and that prevented me from having my capital in Paris and depending on all the stupid politicians we have in Portugal! (I'm joking!!!) I'm very proud of that treaty!!!

The bagpipes also played when her Majesty was residing in Buckingham Palace.

@@tonyska Personally I want us to keep the Monarchy as our Head of State, I love the idea of having a Head of State who is non political, having a head of State who's a politician is too divisive.

@@bevanfletcher6563 That's exactly how I feel about it. The Queen was above politics and the divisiveness that comes with it.

She devoted her life to living in luxury and was showered with disgusting riches and jewels

I've seen some but not all many Americans have been respectful

@@jamiewillis6862 Agreed, there have been some fabulous messages from the US but some really nasty ones

Sorry for the insulting messages received. Please take them as coming from the Bottom Feeder people every country is inflicted with. Hopefully the rest of the RF will now be able to at last release that grief they all have been holding back.

That once-great newspaper,The New York Times have been disgusting throughout all of it. CNN too,who thought it appropriate to talk about nothing else but Meghan and Harry and anything else they could dredge up during our Queens funeral. Vile.

Still feels raw 😪😥

Me too, 4 months down the road and I still miss her 😢

Can only just about watch things like this it still feels very weird that she's gone

Who's care about the queen ding dong the witch is dead

Nicely put. Best wishes from Liverpool

real scots loved our queen like likes of sturgeon and her Nazi scum must be stopped

Thank you for your kind words, they meant a lot to me.

Thank you Thamer, but Her Majesty was the Queen of Great Britain & Northern Ireland, not England. We Scots referred to her as Elizabeth Queen of Scots because Elizabeth the 1st predated the union of crowns of Scotland & England which occurred in1603. The Queen passed away in Scotland, a land she loved, a people she loved & we reciprocated that love in the way Scots do, low key, but loyal.

@@KeithWilliamMacHendry My apologies, I meant no offense. I've always thought the terms were interchangeable but after a quick Google I see I'm mistaken, Great Britain refers to the island itself including Scotland and Wales. Thank you for educating me. I'll amend my original post.

I loved that piper playing. Such an emotional piece of music

the mounties were not just on horse back they were on the backs of the horses gifted to the queen by canada

Just think all the training the men and women had was from the 9 to the 18th well down

Amen!!

I never see raw emotion like I did on the pall bearers faces what a honour they had to be the men to carry her

Agree wholeheartedly, they all did a fantastic job, I wondered out of thousands of military how the pall bearers were chosen?

Something to proudly tell their decadence what pivotal part, they played, not just in British history, but the history of the planet and it's inhabitants.

@@terrymurphy2032 ya I noticed they was right by her

That's the idea of Constitutional Monarchy, it is none political. We are all united under the monarch. Hereditry heads of state are far better than hereditry politicil clans like Clintons, Bushes, Kennedy's etc. I wonder if Michelle Obama will run for president. Why? Because she was married to a president. Crazy stuff.

That's the power of an excellent and devoted sovereign, and something that no elected politicians can do. They divide rather than unite.

Thank you Mark ❤️❤️

Thank you for your service 🙏🏻 ❤️

If you ladies ever need any info on British army protocol or the pomp and ceremony that goes on over here let me know. I'm in the Royal Artillery I'd be more than happy to let our American sisters know what us wierd British do. I fought alongside my American brothers in Afghan 3 times by the way they where all top blokes.x love you ladies for your videos... keep them coming.x

Beautiful words from a Scott.. B lucky my old china 👍

Completely agree. I was there and the bagpipes were incredible 💙🇬🇧💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🇬🇧💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Scotland did herself proud in its tributes to the Queen. Ian Blackford's tribute in Parliament was especially moving, making it clear that the Queen loved Scotland and Scotland loved her back, with Mr Blackford dubbing her "Elizabeth, Queen Of Scots." God bless Scotland.

Too many Scots don't appreciate the monarchy enough. Scottish people were the first brits. The Royal family is as much ours as it is England's.

As a Brit and an Engel thankyou Gail Scott for making her so Happy , long may we be Brit ❤🙏👊

No other nation could have done this. Can you imagine the size and scope of the security operation?

The British did an impeccable job. Really impressive. And just the majesty and beauty of it all. Was watching in awe and pride for the last 10 days from Australia. I still have never been to the UK, so I'm now really keen to come visit asap.

Perfect and worthy tribute. She deserves all of it ❤😭

We sure did Steven. Brilliant send off. We did her proud.

@Dan Beech Doesn't matter if you're not *always* like that. You step up when it counts and that's what's important.

That's SO much sadder now!!! 😭😭😭😭

I was in floods of tears yesterday when I saw that, his last job for her and how beautiful it was x

and the rest of Britain, from a proud Scot, our services, history and traditions cannot be matched. God bless her Majesty, long live the King x

Or British culture. The Irish Guards, The Welsh Guards, and Scots all served the Queen with pride and honour. They have all lost their commander in chief, or " the boss" as they called the Queen with much love and affection.
