How to watch Queen Elizabeth II's state funeral at Westminster Abbey
CBSN
Official mourning for Queen Elizabeth II, the U.K.'s longest-reigning monarch, culminates Monday morning with her state funeral in Westminster Abbey in London. The guest list for the service includes around 500 foreign dignitaries, including about 100 heads of state — President Biden among them — and after years of planning, an extensive security operation is being put to the test.
Elizabeth died on September 8, at the age of 96, as her family gathered to be by her side at Balmoral Castle, her country estate in Scotland. Her eldest son, now King Charles III, has led the royal family, the nation and the world in honoring her legacy and ushering in a new era that is likely to present growing challenges for the Commonwealth.
Monday's service will be broadcast live, with CBS News coverage beginning at 5:30 a.m. ET, anchored by Norah O'Donnell and Gayle King.
