I see there's a call for a state funeral. I fear such an event would end up being a circus like princess Diana's. Thousands of people in close proximity would probably account for transmission of the virus resulting in numerous deaths - not what he would have wanted.
Another suggestion was for a statue on the fourth plinth at Trafalgar Square. At least that would curtail the pretentious tat that's been decorating it.
I like the idea of a bust in his home village (or nearby town). Let's face it, he put more into risking his life by fighting in WW2 (like thousands of others) than by walking up and down his garden, despite the latter raising millions.
