The Archbishop of Canterbury calls on public to pray for the Queen
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, has called on the British public to pray for the Queen in "what must be an anguished moment", as he prepares to deliver the blessing at the royal funeral for Prince Philip.
He said that judging her mood for her external appearance should be avoided, as she will "behave with the extraordinary dignity, extraordinary courage that she always does".
