The United Kingdom and the world have bidden farewell to Queen Elizabeth II with a state funeral that drew presidents and kings, princes and prime ministers. Her reign has defined an age, up to the point that our panel wonders if she was in reality the queen... of the world? In this special edition, we delve into the moment in time that is a 21st century funeral for a monarch who ruled for seventy years.

Produced by Charles Wente, Maya-Anaïs Yataghène and Imen Mellaz.
