I haven't actually read. Can someone give me the cliffs note version of why they are moving his burial place or whatever ether are doing?
 
Did any Royals attend this event?

Or, because he's from "that other family" (war of the roses etc) it was considered non protocol to do so...?

Sophie is going to represent the royal family at the reinterment ceremony on Thursday. Sunday's service was just transferring his coffin to the cathedral ready.

I've read a few articles questioning how low-key this is, that he's not getting a state funeral for example, or better royal representation than the Countess of Wessex, and also that he's not being given a Catholic ceremony in line with his beliefs. The Leicester Cathedral is Church of England.
