How did Jeffrey Dahmer die? Serial killer’s death explained, who is Christopher Scarver – where is he today
Supermarkets and other retailers are either completely shut or closed for part of the day as a result of the Queen’s funeral
The Queen’s funeral has brought to an end a period of national mourning in the wake of her death. The UK’s longest-reigning monarch is now set to be laid to rest in the grounds of Windsor Castle in the presence of the Royal Family..
As a result of the bank holiday that has been granted in light of the state funeral marking Queen Elizabeth II’s passing, supermarkets and other retailers across the UK have been closed.
Some sites will be closed for the entire day, while others will only be shut during the part of the day containing ceremonies for the Queen. It means it might be harder than usual to get hold of a special edition newspaper commemorating the occasion.
So, if you want to get hold of a copy, how can you do it?

NationalWorld is part of a wider group of news titles from across the UK. These include newspapers like The Scotsman, Yorkshire Post and The Portsmouth News.
If you wish to get hold of a copy of your local paper, they are still being printed as usual on Monday (19 September). But with supermarkets and other news retailers either closed or operating with very limited opening hours, you may be wondering how you can get hold of a paper.
National World – the publisher of NationalWorld.com – has said you can pick up copies from most local, independent newsagents as they are likely to remain open throughout the day – or at least, through most of the day.
It has also said that it has increased supplies to these retail outlets to ensure there is plenty of stock.
Should you be unable to visit one of these retailers today, most are happy to hold back a newspaper copy for you if you contact them in advance. Pre-paid vouchers can be exchanged at all good local retailers.

Other publishers are also continuing to print physical copies of their newspapers carrying special edition coverage of the Queen’s state funeral, as well as the other events taking place throughout the day.
It is likely these will be available in a similar way to which NationalWorld’s sister titles are.
To check how to get hold of a copy, it is worth visiting the websites of the individual title you wish to get hold of, or that of their publisher. NationalWorld has listed these below:
