Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance at the Festival Hall
"This year's festival pays tribute to those who served in the decisive battles of 1944. From the Normandy landings and the subsequent campaign, to Monte Cassino and Kohima and Imphal in the Asian theatre.
We also recognise the 75th anniversary of the founding of Nato, and closer to the present, we remember the 457 serving men and women who lost their lives during operations in Afghanistan."
You can watch it live on BBC One at 9 pm on 9 November. - CATCH UP BBC iPlayer
