Commentator- and now the coffin is taken to st rushiners catherdral where it will lay in state for the next 24 hours.
Anchor man; I cannot remember a sadder moment on which i have had to commentate this is without doubt on of the saddest occasions this country has ever witnessed as we look down the line of nearly 6 million mourners nearly half th countries population who have crammed into this small cuty centre all united in their greif and angerat such an horrific event.
Commentator- I have to cut in there because as we watch the first of th e200 coffins of dead children tragically murdered is now coming down the parade never before have i seen so many people crying at once,how many mothers fathers brothers or sisters have lost somthing in the past week that can never be replaced, King Charles just four months old follows behinfd the precession in the arms of a widowed mother what respocibility on both their shoulders.... she seems to be stopping and greeting the crowd this a break in protocol she has gone over to a elderly lady in the crowd and puts her arms around her they both cry in unremorseful drops
Following this com ethe kings Presidents and other dignatres most Notably perhaps that of the the king of cotswold morris a distant relation of our own late king, then comes president Zeu who's own governments views are as far removed from our own to make it especially wonderful to see him here.
Anchor man- well for the next few hours before the funeral the king will lye in state allowing all who wish to show respect to this late great man and for all to remember the great man that was behind our king
