Westminster Abbey service to mark VE Day

The service will be attended by The Queen, Duke of Edinburgh and the Prince of Wales alongside members of the Armed Forces and people from allied and Commonwealth nations.

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Most Revd Justin Welby will give an address in the service which will be led by the Dean of Westminster, the Very Revd Dr John Hall who described it as "a time for remembrance, thanksgiving, and rededication".

Following the service there will be a fly-past over central London by the Red Arrows.

VE Day marks the day 70 years ago when the Second World War ended in Europe after Germany surrendered.

Yesterday church and cathedral bells rang out at 11am marking the end to their silence during the conflict.
