Meeting Point: How Long Shall We Remember?

on BBC One London

Fifty years after the outbreak of the first World War and twenty-five years after the outbreak of the second, the manner of remembrance of the dead of both still remains virtually unchanged. How meaningful, especially for younger generations, is it all now? Has the time come for a new look at the whole thing?
Geoffrey Wheeler questions members of the public in Hyde Park on the morning of this Remembrance Sunday and later in the studio talks to The Bishop of Birmingham, Canon Edward Carpenter, Rear Admiral Sir Anthony Buzzard
