It feels like we're being slowly prepared for her passing away. I feel unexpectedly tearful.

Ah that’s sad

Moving, end of an era

The alert didn’t attach, but…. It’s not a shock, but it IS a shock, you know? Huw sounds so upset.

Oh look, 6 pm has been and gone. And normal programming will be resuming after the news….

Seems all those people who knew for a fact that she was dead at 3:27 and that the announcement would be made at 6 got it wrong then.

Quell surprise.

That post aged badly quickly

'The King and the Queen Consort..' OMG. That's now what we have. So strange.

A long life well lived. Sleep well Ma'am.

Well Huw has done a job. Sounded like They we're making it up from 6pm.

uncomfortablydumb53 · 08/09/2022 18:37

It's just been announced The Queen has passed

vera99 · 08/09/2022 18:37

Just heard Andrew Marr crack up on LBC and ardent republican as I am and cynical to boot feel myself welling up.

Sigma33 · 08/09/2022 18:37

Announced

derxa · 08/09/2022 18:37

I can scarcely believe it. I know that sounds daft

Blizy · 08/09/2022 18:37

Rip your Majesty.

NCFT0922 · 08/09/2022 18:38

RIP Your Majesty.

MissyCooperismyShero · 08/09/2022 18:38

Rest in peace.

Angelsandstardust · 08/09/2022 18:38

I'm not even that into the royals but I'm so sad hearing the Queen has passed away.

Like, welling up and everything :(

Sigma33 · 08/09/2022 18:39

As a republican I am tearful. My parents generation and an end of a generation as well as an era

adriftabroad · 08/09/2022 18:39

I am so sad.

IDidntKnowItWasAParty · 08/09/2022 18:39

RIP Elizabeth, sleep well

whatdoIknowabout · 08/09/2022 18:39

It's one of those moments ...

She did a bloody good job in a rapidly changing world. I think we were very fortunate to have her as long as we did.

Suzi888 · 08/09/2022 18:41

I’ve felt weird all day. Inexplicably sad…. I didn’t know she was unwell or that this was expected! I’m not a monarchist at all. Bizarre…. I knew she had passed when the news started, dressed all in black, the presenters seemed nervous.

RIP - she did a good job.

workiskillingme · 08/09/2022 18:41

Rest in peace amazing lady so glad you got to see your jubilee with us all

CaramelTwirl · 08/09/2022 18:45

She's always just been there being the Queen. It will be strange without her.

RIP Liz.

CaveMum · 08/09/2022 18:46

The Queen is dead, long live the King.

sunglassesonthetable · 08/09/2022 18:46

I'm not sad but I have that end of an era feeling.

These few years have been a rollercoaster haven't they.
