McDonald's to close for Queen's funeral on Monday

McDonald's is to close all of its UK restaurants on Monday 19 September, as a mark of respect to Queen Elizabeth II on the day of her funeral.
The fast food chain, which has around 1,300 outlets in the UK, said they would all be shut until 5pm on the day.

A bank holiday across the UK was approved by King Charles III for the day of his mother's funeral.
The Queen, Britain's longest ever reigning monarch, died on Thursday at her Scottish estate in Balmoral.

John Lewis, Waitrose, Asda, Primark and a host of other businesses have already said they will be shut in the UK on Monday to mark the proceedings.
