King Charles III appeared to fight back tears as he said a final goodbye to his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in a committal service at Windsor Castle.

@imamberzoe commented: "The look on Charles’ face as everyone sang God Save the Queen was absolutely heartbreaking. Hundreds of thousands lined the streets for the Queen's funeral procession. And @Hyperfashun said: "Charles's face during God save the King looked so sad and deflated." This was followed by a colourful procession through central London with Queen's coffin borne on the State Gun Carriage of the Royal Navy to Wellington Arch at Hyde Park Corner. And the Queen's eldest son, the former Prince of Wales, looked deeply moved. The Queen died aged 96 at her beloved Scottish home, Balmoral on September 8, following a reign of 70 years.

Is UK national anthem 'God Save the King' actually French? (The Local France)

There is a popular theory in France that Britain's national anthem has French origins and is linked to an embarrassing health issue of King Louis XIV.

“At the beginning of the 17th century, Louis XIV asked that the ceremonies and religious services end with the prayer for the king. The music for Grand Dieu Sauve le Roi “looks like the melody of God Save the King”, Thomas Leconte, a researcher at the Centre de musique baroque de Versailles, told France Info. The words and tune are anonymous, and may date back to the 17th century.”
