Overview

In the presence of Her Majesty The Queen and members of the Royal Family, Huw Edwards presents The Royal British Legion's annual Festival of Remembrance, which pays tribute to all victims of war and conflict. Brian May, Kerry Ellis, Hayley Westenra and The Soldiers perform alongside The Massed Bands of the Household Division, the Band of HM Royal Marines, The Queen's Colour Squadron and the Army Physical Training Corps. The Festival includes the traditional two-minute silence as poppy petals fall from the roof of the Royal Albert Hall, each representing a life lost in war.
