As the body of the late George VI was conveyed from Westminster to Windsor, Australians observed a ‘Nation-wide Pause for [the] King’s Death’. ‘A blanket of silence’, the Melbourne Argus reported, ‘fell on Sydney’s 1¾ million people at noon’; ‘Brisbane became a “dead city” for two minutes’. Across the country, ‘Cities, towns, and villages … paid the tribute of silence to the late King’. When the noise returned, it included the voices of 5000 at Carlton’s Royal Exhibition Building belting out George’s favourite hymn ‘Abide with Me’, and innumerable speeches honouring the much-loved and respected monarch. Radio stations everywhere (including every Melbourne radio station) announced the cancellation of regular programming so they could rebroadcast the BBC’s coverage of the King’s funeral service.'
