What is the bench between the throne and the woolsack? And who are those lords who sit on it?

It is placed there for representatives of the King, since only His Majesty may sit at the throne. They are the lords chosen to present the King's commission.

The Commissioners, seated on the bench between the woolsack and the throne, are named by the clerk who reads the King's Commission. As he names them, the camera moves to the Lord in question, the naming begins just after 11m10sec. The woman in the centre, who does most of the talking, is Baroness Smith of Basildon, Lord Privy Seal

Very possibly the last time this will be seen. The new Labour government is pledged to abolish the House of Lords.

Every govt for the last 27 years has promised to do that since Blair. None of them have had the guts to carry it out because they all yearn for more years in this place once kicked out by the electorate where they can continue to fill their boots from the trough of public expense. It should be an elected 2nd chamber and no religious interference at all, politics should be entirely separate from religion.

@@dc-4ever201 I'm pretty sure it's only the Labour governments that have promised to abolish the Lords. But I agree that there should be no clergy in either house unless they have been elected. (Especially since the CofE today is just a leftwing social club. Albeit one with very nice stained-glass windows.)
