St Barnabas, Pimlico, 5021 Grandsire Cators, 17/9/22, Sovereign-muffled as HM the Queen lay in State
1) Raising the front 6
2) Raising the back 4 individually
3) Test rounds on 10
4) 5021 Grandsire Cators in 3h 26 minutes, being the first peal rung here since 5038 Stedman Cators on 25th October 1902. In the featured attempt here, the bells are 'Sovereign Muffled' - that is, all clappers muffled, except the Tenor backstroke. This form of muffling is fitly reserved ONLY for ringing in the aftermath of the death of the Monarch. This ringing took place during the period of the lying In State of Her late Majesty's earthly remains, in nearby Westminster Hall.
The ringers, 17th Sep 2022, stood in the following order:
Treble: J. W. Belshaw (Conductor)
2: S. J. Pattenden
3: G. R. Forster
4: P. W. Emery
5: J. E. Archibald
6: D. R. Love
7: A. R. Udal
8: S. G. Jakeman
9: J. White
Tenor: C. J. Cooper
5) Lowering back 4
6) Lowering front 6
END.

Great video!
Strange how they’re able to stay up without stays

They have latch/pendulum stays (metal). The latch on the non-wheel end of the headstock engaged with a long metal bar attached by pivot on the frameside and retained within a metal framework. If you look carefully at the headstock before the bells go up, you'll see the protruding latch.

@@mrunixman1579 ah, I see. Latch-stays with dingles like this were used in Victorian installations where there were constraints on space under the frame. They're uncommon today as sadly most have been rehung.
Does the entire frame move or it it just certain bits?

Its a latchet stay which i think is on the side of the headstock. If you look carefully there is a thing hanging horizontally off the side of the headstock in which the wheel is not on. I think that part is the latchet stay which maybe hooks on to something
One of them is up wrong...

So it is! That particular bell is inclined to go up 'wrong' even when not muffled! Even harder to get up right than the Tenor!

That is not true whatsoever. Have you any idea how many European bells have lazy clappers?
are you able to clip the front 6 ringing up plaese?
