Across the country thousands of people have attended services | :00:13. | :00:19. | |
of Remembrance honouring members of the armed services. | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
A two minute silence was held at 11 o'clock, to pay tribute to | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
those killed in World Wars One and Two, and later conflicts. | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
A time to remember and reflect on the sacrifice of others, | :00:28. | :00:37. | |
at the Welsh National War Memorial in Cardiff. | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
Current servicemen and women were among those taking part | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
The Last Post sounded here and in ceremonies up and down the country, | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
Politicians and religious leaders were among those | :00:50. | :01:16. | |
who laid wreaths, in honour of those who were killed | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
or injured serving their country, not only in past conflicts. | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
And it's encouraging to see that more | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
We know just how important it is, not just to remember those who have | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
fallen in conflicts past but to remember those who are | :01:35. | :01:36. | |
Clifford Shore served in the Royal Regiment of Gunners | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
I am proud that I did what I did and I was in what I was in. | :01:42. | :01:51. | |
And I think of the wonderful crowd of people. | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
And people think very highly of us, which is very nice. | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
We fought for the country to be free. | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
Freedom of thought, freedom of speech, | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
If you don't like something, we are allowed to speak up against it. | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
And that's what we fought for. Not to be downtrodden. | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
In Aberystwyth, white poppy wreaths were included | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
in the official remembrance ceremony for the first time. | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
It was very important. The Aberystwyth peace and justice | :02:22. | :02:23. | |
network had the support of the council since 2004. | :02:24. | :02:34. | |
We had the support of the town council | :02:35. | :02:36. | |
for the laying of a white poppy wreath, since 2004, | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
trying to combine the ceremony so that everything could happen at | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
once, so this year's really, really special that we were able to do it. | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
For many of the current service men and women here today and | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
their families, this is a poignant and at times painful event. | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
But they are encouraged by the presence of | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
so many young people here, that lessons are being passed on. | :02:55. | :03:05. | |
A murder investigation has been launched | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
after a 22-year-old man died following an assault in Llanelli. | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
Simon Lee Bell was taken to hospital after the incident on Dillwyn Street | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
Two men, aged 30 and 52, have been arrested. | :03:16. | :03:18. | |

Falklands veteran Simon Weston has described | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
the much-delayed Iraq war inquiry as "an insult to the memories | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
Sir John Chilcot is due to publish his report next year, | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
Mr Weston, who was badly injured during the Falklands campaign, | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
says the wait has been horrendous for the families. | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
The enquiry has been one of the worst episodes of political | :03:46. | :03:54. | |
interference for any enquiry, I think it is an insult to the | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
memories of every single person that started, every single family that | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
suffered because of and because of the death of their loved ones over | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
The former Wales Assistant Manager, Kit Symons, has been fired | :04:05. | :04:07. | |

Rugby, and in the Pro12 the Newport Gwent Dragons lost 12 points to 19 | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
The home side were up by 9 points, but the visitors battled back with | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
scrum-half Paul Marshall scoring the only try of the match | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
A mostly dry and clear night, although by the morning there'll be | :04:30. | :04:38. | |
Tomorrow will be another cloudy day, with some heavy rain in north | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
It'll be windy with gales along the coasts - mild though with | :04:43. | :04:52. | |
From everyone on the team, thanks for watching and good night. | :04:53. | :05:01. |
