The Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance S2008E01 - 2008

The Royal British Legion's annual Festival of Remembrance pays tribute to all victims of war and conflict in the presence of HM The Queen and members of the Royal Family.

Katherine Jenkins, Russell Watson, Hayley Westenra, Jonathan Ansell and Blake will perform alongside The Massed Bands of the Household Division, the Band of HM Royal Marines, the Band of the Parachute Regiment, the RAF Squadronaires and the Queen's Colour Squadron of the Royal Air Force. The lesson is read by the Earl of Wessex.

The Service of Remembrance includes the traditional two minute silence as thousands of poppy petals fall from the roof of the Royal Albert Hall, each representing a life lost in war.
