Watch as King Charles and Queen Camilla attend the Service of Remembrance in honour of those who served to bring the Second World War to a close 80 years ago.
Following the USSR’s declaration of war against Japan, and the devastating use of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the unconditional surrender of Japanese forces was announced on 15th August. The day was declared VJ Day and a national holiday in the UK.
The King and Queen will be joined by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, in the laying of wreaths.
The Red Arrows will also perform a flypast during the service.
Watch the service live, here on ITV News’ YouTube channel.
