" Witnessing the love and respect shown by so many on these journeys has been both humbling and uplifting, " She Said .

Thousands paid their respects as The Queen lay At Rest in St Giles' Cathedral, in Edinburgh overnight, before her coffin was flown to Raf Northolt , in north-west London this evening.

" There has been an incredible atmosphere, " She Said . " Observing the floral tributes has been wonderful. "

On Wednesday, The Queen 's coffin will be taken via The Mall , Horse Guards Parade, Whitehall and Parliament Square to Westminster Hall .

The Coffin will lie in state in the hall until The Morning of The Funeral next Monday. More Than 400,000 people are expected to be able to file past it there.

From 17:00 BST on Wednesday, people will be able to pay their respects, although.
