Thousands of people lined the streets of Dundee to watch the Queen’s cortege pass through the city.

People from across Tayside travelled to stand by the Kingsway as the late monarch made her final trip through Dundee on Sunday.

The cortege travelled from Balmoral and continued south to Edinburgh, passing Angus, Perthshire and Fife.

Our photographers captured the best pictures in Dundee.
