People across the North East fall silent on Remembrance Sunday to honour those who died in conflict

People across the North East fell silent on Remembrance Sunday to remember those who had died in conflict since World War One.

Residents in cities and towns across the region stood still as they paid emotional tributes to armed forces members who have lost their lives. When the clock struck 11am, there was silence as hundreds of people gathered to pay their respects.

In Newcastle city centre, a military parade and a Service of Remembrance was held in honour of those who scarified so much to keep their country safe. Hundreds of people turned out to watch the parade and observe the two-minute silence at the City War Memorial.
