Queen Elizabeth II's coffin arrived past hushed crowds at Windsor Castle on Monday, for a final committal service at St George's Chapel before burial. The royal hearse, covered in flowers from well-wishers on the journey from London, swept sedately up the Long Walk avenue in a military procession, to tolling bells and ceremonial gunfire.
