Televised footage showed Jacinda Ardern stopping to curtsy before the Queen’s coffin as it lies in state at Westminster Hall for four days.

The Queen died more than a week ago at the age of 96 at Balmoral Castle in Scotland.

On Saturday UK time, the Prime Minister will meet with her new British counterpart, Liz Truss – who herself met the Queen just two days before she died as part of protocol for an incoming head of government.

That meeting is due to take place at the government’s Chevening country residence outside London.

Ardern is one of several world leaders, including US President Joe Biden and his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron, who will attend Monday’s state funeral.

Also among those representing New Zealand at the funeral will be the Governor-General, Dame Cindy Kiro; the Māori King, Kiingi Tūheitia; former Governor-General Dame Silvia Cartwright; Victoria Cross for New Zealand recipient, Willie Apiata; and former Secretary-General of the Commonwealth, Sir Don McKinnon.

A statement from Buckingham Palace said King Charles and wife Camilla Queen Consort will host a reception for heads of state and official overseas guests.

The Queen's funeral will be held at Westminster Abbey before the coffin is taken to Windsor, where she will be laid to rest in the royal vault.

The Prime Minister has already indicated she’s happy to use the VIP bus system being set up to carry hundreds of visiting dignitaries in London.

Following the Queen’s funeral, the Prime Minister will fly to New York for the United Nations General Assembly on 19 September.

There, she will co-host the Christchurch Call Summit, which aims to help eradicate extremist and terrorist content online, with the French President.

A state memorial service will be held for the Queen in New Zealand on 26 September, which will also be a public holiday for the country.

We’ll have full coverage of Queen Elizabeth II's State Funeral on Monday in a 1News Special from 7.30 pm on TVNZ 1, and on 1News.co.nz.

'Most people in the queue were talking to each other - he wasn't': Mourner describes strange behaviour of man who waited 14 hours before he was arrested for grabbing Queen's coffin

 

EXCLUSIVE: The man arrested after rushing out of the queue of mourners and grabbing the Queen's coffin at the Palace of Westminster in a security scare that stunned police and well-wishers was behaving 'strangely' and had waited 14 hours to get close enough to the late monarch lying-in-state, eyewitnesses have claimed. Officers tackled the man to the floor last night after he pushed through the queue, knocking aside a seven-year-old girl, in a rush to the coffin - and then apparently touched the Queen's casket, even lifting the Royal Standard in which it is draped. Metropolitan Police said the incident occurred around 10pm, as the live feed from inside the hall cut away for a brief period. Eyewitnesses today described the man's odd, even erratic, behaviour in the run-up to the security scare. Scotland Yard last night confirmed that a man had been arrested in Westminster Hall on suspicion of a public order offence, and remains in custody.

Queuing in the cold! Mourners brave cold snap overnight but are warned they face longer than 24-hour wait to see Queen's coffin in 'world's longest queue' that can be seen from space

Tens of thousands of mourners queueing to see the Queen lying-in-state at the Palace of Westminster braved the cold last night amid plunging temperatures - as the Government warned people will have to wait more than 24 hours to pay their respects in what is thought to be he world's longest queue, which can even be seen from space. Wait times stretched to more than 25 hours overnight as thousands of mourners wrapped up so they could keep warm and keep their place in the five-mile queue to file past the Queen's coffin before Monday, the day of her state funeral. It is believed that the queue to see the late monarch is the world's longest queue in terms of distance, potentially even eclipsing the 30,000 Russians who waited to get inside the USSR's first McDonald's restaurant when it finally opened on January 31, 1990 after the end of the Cold War.

 

Sweet moments with Gan Gan: Adorable videos and pictures show the close bond the Queen shared with her great-grandchildren and grandchildren over the years

Queen Elizabeth II was a beloved grandmother to eight grandchildren and a great-grandmother of twelve. The monarch, 96, shared many sweet moments throughout her last few years with her great-grandchildren, especially The Prince and Princess of Wales's children George, nine, Charlotte, seven, and Louis, four. From Prince Louis' mischievous behaviour at the Platinum Jubilee in June (left) to making Christmas pudding in a wholesome video with Prince George (bottom right), Her Majesty, affectionately called 'Granny' and 'Gan-Gan', enjoyed a close bond with the younger generation of royals. Some of the adorable moments were even captured on camera and broadcast around the world - including when Princess Charlotte copied the Queen's iconic wave at Trooping The Colour in June 2018. Here Femail looks at the cutest moments of the Queen with her grandchildren and great -grandchildren...
