Anna Burns-Francis: TVNZ correspondent says thousands of people have turned out to pay their respects to Queen Elizabeth

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Sundays

Huge crowds have gathered in Edinburgh to see off Her Majesty. The Queen's coffin is lying in state at Edinburgh's Saint Giles' Cathedral. King Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward have stood guard around the coffin in the traditional Vigil of the Princes. Correspondent Anna Burns-Francis told Mike Hosking vast numbers of people have turned out to pay their respects. “It’s a ten or fifteen minute walk from here up to the cathedral but it’s going to take a lot longer, there are thousands of people here.” The coffin will be flown to London tomorrow to lie in state at Westminster Hall for the rest of the week.
