The demise of Queen Elizabeth II was announced at 6.30 pm on Thursday 8th September.
The 96-year old sovereign passed away peacefully at her beloved Scottish castle in Balmoral.
News of the Queen's rapidly declining health had circulated throughout the afternoon and as members of her immediate family flew to Scotland to join her in her final moments, so the British public held vigil at her various royal residences, countrywide.
Even as dusk fell, the palace gates saw gatherings of people wishing to pay their last respects to a Queen that just three months previously had participated in Platinum Jubilee celebrations, marking 70 years of her reign.
The following day, gun salutes boomed across the country to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II, while the public - many visibly grief-stricken - laid floral tributes to their esteemed monarch.
Charles, Queen Elizabeth's eldest son, automatically ascended to the throne on her passing.
Returning to London with Camilla, the Queen Consort the ensuing day, he addressed the nation.
He was officially proclaimed King Charles III on Saturday, yet after 70 years of a Queen the nation's having to adjust to the idea of a King at the helm.
While the King's coronation is set to go ahead next year, currently uppermost in people's minds is their treasured, steadfast Queen.
Flags are to fly at half-mast until her funeral, on the 19th September.
