Queen arrives at Margaret Thatcher’s funeral

The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh were among the final guests to arrive for Baroness Thatcher’s funeral. They got to St Paul’s Cathedral around fifteen minutes before the service was due to begin at 11am. The National Anthem was played by the Band of the Welsh Guards as the Queen’s car arrived at the cathedral’s entrance. It is the first time the monarch has attended the funeral service of a former prime minister since Sir Winston Churchill’s state ceremony in 1965. Report by Sophie Foster. Subscribe to ITN News!
