It's a queue that's become so big, it can be seen from space. Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to view Queen Elizabeth II's coffin over four days lying-in-state. And that means hundreds of thousands of people joining what's now become the most famous queue in the world. Some people have been waiting for around 24 hours, and many have been queuing overnight in all conditions. But that hasn't stopped people from enjoying the experience. So what’s it like to queue for so long? For the latest episode of 5 Minutes On, BBC correspondent Chi Chi Izundu joins thousands queuing for the Queen. Image credit: Hannah McKay, Reuters
