What a massive gathering of world leaders. It's no wonder there is a huge amount of security involved.

Another article here of rather impressive numbers involved:

Holy smokes but this will be a long service. Here is the link to the funeral service order:

From my understanding, the service itself shouldn't be longer than an hour, it's all the pomp and circumstance before and after that will drag it out.

From my understanding, the service itself shouldn't be longer than an hour, it's all the pomp and circumstance before and after that will drag it out.

I'm surprised that it is only an hour considering the list of hymns and prayers that are scheduled. It's been a bizarre week of ongoing events and ceremonies not just in the UK but here and everywhere else as well. I doubt we will ever see something like this ever again.

I know I won't be getting up at 3am to watch the service and besides, every news related channel will repeat the entire service repeatedly all day tomorrow.
