Queen Elizabeth II: G7 summit marked final visit to South West (BBC News)

BBC News looks back at the Queen's many trips to the south-west of England.

In 2011, the Queen opened a new school on the Isles of Scilly and two years later visited St Michael's Mount where she toured the ramparts and left impressions of her feet - literally following in the footsteps of her great-great-grandmother Queen Victoria who did the same in 1846. In the decades that followed, the Queen made many trips to the South West including two to distribute Maundy money - at Exeter in 1983 and 11 years later in Truro, which was the first time the ceremony had been held in Cornwall. Princess Elizabeth acceded to the throne in 1952 and after the coronation her trips to the South West continued. During a visit to the South West in 2018, the Queen paid tribute to HMS Ocean and those who sailed on the vessel. In a speech to mark the decommissioning of the fleet flagship in Plymouth, she commended the "unique and remarkable vessel". From her visit to Cornwall for the G7 summit to her military connections, the Queen has been a frequent visitor to the south-west of England.

Death of Queen Elizabeth II: The moment history stops (BBC News)

She spoke to the nation, just before the BBC Six O'clock news. She - who had once driven broadcast executives to despair with her wooden delivery - barely had time to prepare. Her performance was flawless, her speech brief but perfectly pitched.

And twice she stepped - very gingerly - into the debate over Scottish independence, once in a speech in the 1970s and once just before the referendum of 2014. It was a brief glimpse into the thinking of a sovereign who believed that one of her roles was to unify an increasingly divided and disparate nation. The Queen never had reason to deny a dissolution of Parliament, and it would have been an extraordinary act to do so. And over the decades, the very idea of the Palace becoming involved in such a decision became alien to British politics. "I was astonished," wrote Harold Macmillan "at Her Majesty's grasp of all the details sent in messages and telegrams." One of her last, Boris Johnson, would grapple with the implications of the border within the island, and how to square that with the UK's departure from the European Union. The poison swirling around the Royal Family, around the Palace and around the very institution of the monarchy, was drawn. What was her place - and the monarchy's - in the new "Cool Britannia" and the informal style embraced by Tony Blair? The Queen's self-proclaimed "annus horribilis" in 1992 saw the separation of the Duke and Duchess of York, the divorce of Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips and the separation of the Prince and Princess of Wales. "Divorce and separation," she once said, "are responsible for some of the darkest evils in our society today." But the Queen was open about her liking for tradition, for the ways things had always been done, and her dislike of change. Now, 75 years on, the cap has pride of place as she speaks to the nation on the anniversary of a great and heroic victory.

How Huw Edwards and the BBC reacted to the death of the Queen (iNews)

The veteran presenter won praise for his 'peerless' performance as 9.7m out of 16m viewers tuned in to the BBC's live coverage. Huw Edwards was visibly ...

After gauging the mood of listeners on social media, it was decided to introduce vocal tracks of a consolatory nature, leading with Only Love (“Darling, you’re with me, always around me”) by Ben Howard. The BBC has held regular rehearsals for the passing of the monarch, testing its broadcasters and technical staff’s response to different scenarios. Radio 1 reverted to regular programming at 7am on Friday with the Greg James breakfast show. The station had planned to replace chart hits with reflective, “chill-out” instrumental tracks. A picture of the Queen accompanied the national anthem. Broadcaster Simon Thomas said: “On the saddest and most momentous of moments, Huw Edwards has been peerless.” Myrie later said it had been “a poor choice of word but that’s live broadcasting”. Appearing on screen shortly after 12.30pm to deliver the initial statement that doctors were “concerned for Her Majesty’s health” in a BBC News Special, over the next six hours Edwards delivered what David Baddiel called “an amazing performance. Thursday night’s recording of Have I Got News For You was scrapped. But Radio 2 cancelled its Live in Leeds festival next weekend, headlined by Robbie Williams. He would not need to publicise those earnings if he left the BBC. It was “the act of Liz Truss speaking [in Parliament] that was overshadowed” and he had not intended to “belittle the struggles of millions with their bills.”

Our thoughts are with the Royal Family at this difficult time.— Gatwick Airport LGW (@Gatwick_Airport) A joint statement from councillors Phélim Mac Cafferty, Carmen Appich, John Allcock and Steve Bell, the four party leaders on Brighton and Hove City Council, said: "The Queen succeeded to the throne before any of the four of us were born and that's true for most residents in our city. West Sussex County Council leader Peter Bradbury said she visited Bognor Regis at the age of three when her grandfather was convalescing in the town, while her most recent visit was in November 2017, when she saw the work of Canine Partners in Midhurst, a charity which provides assistance dogs for disabled people. Local authorities in East and West Sussex added their condolences, remarking on the number of times the Queen visited both counties during her reign and before it. Meanwhile, Caroline Lucas, MP for Brighton Pavilion, thanked her for "seventy years of tireless work", while East Worthing and Shoreham's Tim Loughton tweeted about her "selfless service to the very last day". Sir Nicholas said: "My grandfather absolutely revered the Queen, he saw in her the birth of a new Britain after the Second World War, the new Elizabethan age as he Christened it.
