The United Kingdom woke on Friday to absorb news of the death of Queen Elizabeth II, after the 96-year-old monarch died peacefully at Balmoral.

Mourners from around the world, in their thousands, are gathering at Buckingham Palace, Windsor and Sandringham House in an outpouring of public emotion.

The nation is due to be addressed by the new head of state, King Charles III.

The King and Camilla, who is now the Queen Consort, stayed at Balmoral on Thursday night before returning on Friday to Buckingham Palace, where the couple were greeted by the crowds.

The Leader’s joined for analysis and reflection by Evening Standard royal editor Robert Jobson, Sarah Richardson, professor British history at the University of Warwick, and Dr Jonathan Spangler, a senior lecturer in history at Manchester Metropolitan University.
