Did Prince Philip lie in state?
With a state funeral, Royal Family members lie in state, meaning their body is laid - often inside a coffin - and left open for the public to pay their tributes.
This is normally held in Westminster Hall, with King Edward VII the first British monarch to do so in 1910.
However, Prince Philip turned down a state funeral, instead opting for a quieter service where only his close family will be in attendance.
That means he will did not lie in state in the days leading up to his burial.
