Remembrance Sunday 2025: 19 photos of Edinburgh and London remembering the fallen - including John Swinney

The country fell silent this morning as we remembered those who had fallen fighting for their country, to mark this year’s Remembrance Sunday.

In Edinburgh, hundreds gathered at public ceremonies across the city, including large events at Haymarket and the Royal Mile, held to honour the nation’s war dead.

Meanwhile, in London, the King led the nation in the annual Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph in London. He laid the first wreath to honour the fallen.

Senior politicians, including Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, also laid floral tributes, alongside representatives from the Commonwealth.

See our gallery below for Remembrance Sunday photos across Edinburgh and London.
