People filing past the Queen's coffin as seen on the live stream

The 大象传媒 has launched a dedicated stream of the Queen lying in state, for people who want to pay their respects virtually.

The service is being offered globally for those who want to pay their respects but cannot travel to London or are physically unable to queue.

It will be available on the 大象传媒 home page, the 大象传媒 News website and app, the iPlayer, 大象传媒 Parliament and Red Button.

Watch the stream on this link until Monday, the morning of the funeral.

People will be able to file past the coffin in Westminster Hall until 06:30 BST on Monday.

Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to visit Westminster Hall to pay their respects to Britain's longest-reigning monarch.

Mourners began gathering as early as Monday, and by Wednesday morning many people had joined the queue forming on nearby streets and along the banks of the River Thames.

The Queen's coffin was taken to Buckingham Palace after it was flown from Edinburgh to London on Tuesday evening.

It has since been carried to Westminster Hall on an open gun carriage of the King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery, drawn by a team of black horses.

King Charles III, his sons the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex, and other members of the Royal Family followed behind the coffin on foot.

After the coffin was placed in position in Westminster Hall by the Grenadier Guards, a short service was held, attended by the King and members of the Royal Family and led by the Archbishop of Canterbury accompanied by the Dean of Westminster.

Westminster Hall was the venue for the King's address to MPs and peers on Monday, when he was also given their condolences.

At 17:00 BST the public were allowed to begin entering the hall to file past the coffin and pay their respects.

The Queen will then lie in state until Monday, which has been declared a Bank Holiday across the UK.

During the lying-in-state period, Westminster Hall will be open for 24 hours a day.

The last member of the Royal Family to lie in state in the hall was the Queen Mother in 2002, when more than 200,000 people queued to view her coffin.
