Susanna Reid joined by co-host Ben Shephard presented the programme live from outside Westminster Abbey and in a change to the usual times they remained on air until 9.30am.

In tribute to Her Majesty, the Good Morning Britain theme tune was also changed and the string music usually playing during the ad breaks was slowed down for the occasion.

Describing the day ahead, Susanna, 51, said: "It will be a public farewell and a private time of sorrow for her family who have lost a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother." During the programme, Susanna discussed her experience of queuing to pay her respects to the Queen.
