It has been revealed that more than 250k people visited Westminster Hall to see the Queen lying in state in the days leading up to her funeral. The queue to allow mourners to pay their respects to the late monarch was closed a number of times, with wait times reaching to over 14 hours.
Culture Secretary Michelle Donelan said that while the final tally is still being worked out it, she could confirm that more than a quarter of a million people filed past the Queen's coffin over the four-day period. “Over 250,000 people went through Parliament,” she told Sky News.
"We are just crunching the final numbers so that's an approximate figure at the moment." Ms Donelan said that she couldn't give a figure for the cost of the state funeral but she added: "I think the British public would argue that was money well spent." She said: "You saw so many thousands out there and I don't think anybody can suggest that our late monarch didn't deserve that send-off, given the duty and the selfless service that she committed to over 70 years." Members of the public queued alongside celebrities as they waited to pay their respects to the long-serving monarch. Former footballer David Beckham , 47, was spotted in the queue on Friday, having joined the night before.
He donned a flat cap and black suit for the sombre occasion. Speaking to ITV News ’ Neil Connery, the former footballer revealed that he had queued for over 12 hours.
