Members of the Royal Family join current and former members of the services to remember the dead of the UK and Commonwealth on Remembrance Sunday. Wreaths are laid at the Cenotaph followed by two minutes silence at 11am and after a short service there is a march past by thousands who served and suffered in the conflict of war.
About Cenotaph
Standing solemnly in the middle of Whitehall, visitors could be forgiven for passing the Cenotaph by unnoticed. But every November it becomes the focus of Britain's Remembrance Service (the closest Sunday to 11th November). The service commemorates the British Empire and Commonwealth servicemen who died in the two World Wars. More about Cenotaph
