Both ITN and BBC have copies of the St. Paul service (which is very
touching, and also has a bit where they sing the Star-Spangled
Banner), and if you go to:
http://www.itn.co.uk/usattacks/britain.shtml
you *should* be able to see a video of the Changing of the Guard
ceremony. However, I've been having trouble getting it to load, so
it's not a guarantee. You can see a "snippet" at abcnews.com:
http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/video_index/video_index.html
And then click the link "The World Mourns"
This one's been working, and even though it's only about 20-30
seconds' worth, it made me tear up...
Hope this helps, and I'm sure you'll find a video in the next couple
of days...

Ps. I saw it while watching tv... when they do the wrap-up tonight
on any of the major broadcast stations, they may show it again.
