Songs of Praise: Remembrance Sunday

Remembrance Sunday

BBC One - Songs of Praise, Remembrance Sunday

Katherine Jenkins is at the National Memorial Arboretum for Remembrance Sunday.

Katherine Jenkins marks Remembrance Sunday at the National Memorial Arboretum with Chelsea Pensioner and Britain's Got Talent winner Colin Thackery.

Katherine Jenkins marks Remembrance Sunday by visiting the National Memorial Arboretum (NMA) near Lichfield in Staffordshire to see how its tranquil surroundings bring comfort and hope to those who’ve lost loved ones in the armed forces. Sean Fletcher hears from Chelsea Pensioner and Britain’s Got Talent winner Colin Thackery, who performs a special arrangement of the inspirational song You Raise Me Up. The chaplain at the NMA explains how the loss of his young son gives him empathy for those coming to remember loved ones. Katherine discovers how faith sustains a trustee of the War Widows Association whose husband died in the Falklands conflict. And Sean meets a young soldier who found comfort from New Testament words in a treasured family Bible, as he mourned the loss of his friend in the Afghanistan conflict.
