Prince Charles led the annual ceremony to honor Britain's war dead on Sunday, laying a wreath on behalf of 91-year-old Queen Elizabeth to mark Remembrance Sunday as she watched the service from a balcony.
Breaking with her usual custom of placing the wreath at the Cenotaph on Whitehall in central London, the queen asked her eldest son to take on the role, in part because of the demands of the ceremony for someone in their 90s.
A two-minute silence was held at 1100 GMT and wreaths were laid at the foot of Britain's main war memorial by senior royals and political leaders, including Prime Minister Theresa May and the leader of the main opposition Labor Party, Jeremy Corbyn.
