Armistice Day Commemoration held at The Cenotaph, Whitehall


Video coverage of the Armistice Day Commemoration held at The Cenotaph, Whitehall on 11th November 2021.

The Western Front Association has hosted the ceremony at the Cenotaph on the 11th November each year since 1994. This year I was privileged to lead the prayers.

Guests of honour at this year’s ceremony, some of whom are interviewed here about the occasion, included actor Nick Bailey, Simon Bendry, Dan Jarvis, MP for Barnsley Central, Mayor of South Yorkshire, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence and James Heappey, a former officer in the British Army and MP for Wells in Somerset who is currently the Minister for the Armed Services.

There is also an interview with Walter Tull's great-nephew Edward Finlayson.
