The solemn moment of the announcement on the BBC with God Save The Queen
The moment that will perhaps be marked in history will be the video in which the London BBC announced the death of the monarch.
Reading a brief statement from the royal palace, then he turned the screen to black and with an image of Elizabeth II in the background, the anthem was played God Save the Queen.Historic to treasure.
