As many as 4.1 billion people globally are expected to watch Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral today, making it the most watched TV broadcast of all time. It’s also, soberingly, more than double the world’s total population – 2 billion – when she was born in 1926.
Today, Monday 19 September, the Queen’s body will be carried to Westminster Abbey in England for a state funeral before being laid to rest at Windsor Castle.
