Jo McKenna: Italy Correspondent on the death of Pope Francis

  • Summary

  • Heavily choreographed proceedings are now in motion, following the death of the Pope.

    The leader of the Catholic Church has died overnight at the age of 88 following a battle with double pneumonia.

    Later this week, the Pope will lie in state in St Peters Basilica for several days for the public to pay their respects.

    Italy Correspondent Jo McKenna is at St Peters' Square, and told Francesca Rudkin another ritual will be held in the coming hours, inside his apartment.
