The custom-built Land Rover he helped design to carry his coffin will set off at walking pace towards St George’s Chapel at 2.45pm.

It will arrive at 2.53pm ahead of a national minute’s silence at 3pm.

At the end of a 50-minute service, the coffin will be lowered into the Royal Vault — followed by The Last Post.

Here are all the details on the timings and who will be there.
