Huw Edwards presents the Royal British Legion's annual Festival of Remembrance from the Royal Albert Hall in London. In this socially distanced event HRH the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall will pay special tribute to the contributions of Her Majesty's armed forces as well as the nursing profession. 2020 marks 75 years since the end of the Second World War, and this will be reflected through veterans' first-hand experiences of service in Europe and the Far East. Wartime testimonies will be read by Oscar-nominated actor Samantha Morton, winner of best newcomer on a continuing drama Kara-Leah Fernandes and West End star Julian Ovenden. The nation's most well-known veteran, Captain Sir Tom Moore, talks to Huw about his inspirational achievements and what remembrance means to him.
