Показать описание

This video answers the question of what happens when Queen Elizabeth II dies and Prince Charles becomes the new king. Operation London Bridge is a name for British protocols that must be followed when Queen passes and Prince Charles come to the throne. This video touches the important parts of this protocol as we know it. Britain has been preparing for Queen's demise since the 1960s because this event is expected to be a very important chapter in the history of the British monarchy. It's expected to be the most disrupting event of the 21st century and millions of people are going to watch it. Everything down to the last minute and quarter of an inch is being planned to give Queen Elizabeth II the grandest farewell ever.

It's been 66 years since the death of a monarch in Britain and accession of a new one. King George VI died in 1952 making Queen Elizabeth II the new Queen and she has been holding the throne since then.
The Royal Palace has been preparing for queen's demise since the 1960s, under the codename of "Operation London Bridge", and there have been meetings several times a year behind closed doors to refine the details.
The particulars of this grandest plan had remained a closely kept secret until Sam Knight, a journalist for The Guardian newspaper, interviewed dozens of people involved, with a promise of confidentiality.

Everything down to the last minute is carefully planned to give Queen Elizabeth a farewell of the kind the world has never seen, and most probably will never see again.
In finals hours, the queen will be with her family and a team of doctors led by the queen's senior doctor, Professor Huw Thomas. He'll constantly monitor her health and also consider what information should be made public. People will be notified about queen's health at a regular interval until the last bulletin which may read something like this - "The Queen's life is moving peacefully towards its close" as it happened in case of George V.

At BBC, a cold-war era alarm system called RATS, short for "radio alert transmission system", will be activated. Reporters and anchors have been rehearsing the death of the Queen for over 30 years, substituting the name “Mrs. Robinson”. For many years, they have performed mock storylines about the Queen Mother choking on a fishbone.
These rehearsals will immediately be put into action.

There is a network of blue lights, called "obit lights", installed at Britain's commercial radio stations. They are supposed to light up in event of a National catastrophe and are tested once a week. When the news of Queen's demise breaks, these lights will start flashing to alert the DJs to switch to the news in a few minutes and to play inoffensive music in the meantime.
This will be the beginning of 10 days of sorrow and spectacle, which are officially numbered as D-Day, D+1, D+2...and so on till D+9.
On D+1, the day after the Queen's demise, the flags will go back up, and at 11 am, Charles will be proclaimed king at the Entrée room of St James's Palace.
This will be the time for Charles to go out and meet his people. A four-nation tour by the new king will immediately kick-off.

I cannot believe a seemingly immortal being has passed. The memes, the jokes, all feel meaningless. It all feels unreal, surreal, and like a bad nightmare that this protocol is going into effect.

Can't get over the fact, HM was maybe the first and last queen I will see reign during my lifetime. My thoughts and condolences are with the queen

Someone else realised this as well. This video was released in 2018, it got recommended to all of us in the same week..



Why? Curious and suspicious.

Plot twist: The Queen is immortal or she's not dying until her son dies first

I remember watching this when it first came out. I never thought I’d be involved in something like this. A lot of us all feel like we’ve lost a relative somewhat

I think one of the biggest deviations from this plan was that her body was transported from Scotland to London by plane rather than train due to the palace’s fears of disruption/protests on train lines. Totally understandable, but also a huge shame as it would’ve been an amazing opportunity for people across the country to pay their respects.

Oh no. They're not gonna stop ringing, are they?

Queen: Sleeps for 12 hours instead of 11

Doctor: Get the morphine and coke ready.

I was looking for this video again ever since the Queen recently passed away. Never have I ever thought I would be witnessing history in such a way. It feels so surreal watching this again. Rest in peace your majesty Queen Elizabeth 😔

It's surreal seeing this protocol now going into effect, at least that's what it seems like. I knew it would happen in my lifetime, but now that the day is actually here, it's a strange feeling also knowing that I'm watching history in the making.
