Queen leads Britain in silent mark of respect to honour the nation's war dead

The Queen has led Britain in a silent mark of respect to honour the nation's war dead in a Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph in central London Sunday morning.

The 89-year-old monarch was joined by the Duke of Edinburgh, members of the leading political parties and Prince Harry, whose involvement marks his official transition into a full-time royal. This year marks the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain.

A two-minute silence took place at 11am and wreaths have been laid at the foot of the Whitehall memorial, with a veterans' march to follow.
