King William - 7. The Vigil

Westminster Hall opens to the public as hundreds of thousands queue to pay their respects during the lying-in-state. William, Catherine, Anne, and Edward stand vigil at the four corners of the catafalque in one of monarchy's most demanding ceremonies. The absence of Prince Andrew from the vigil speaks volumes about how scandal has reshaped the family's public face. As dawn breaks on funeral day, William must prepare to lead the nation through its final farewell to King Charles the Third.
