Inside your Weekend Express & Star

placeholder image

To mark 100 years since the outbreak of the Great War, we have a very special edition of Weekend this Saturday.

We've swapped our usual celebrity spread to give special focus to The Royal British Legion, members of which you may have met when purchasing your poppy this year.

We speak to the chairman of the Great Wyrley branch, John Talbot, who along with his wife Brenda has raised tens of thousands of pounds for the cause.

Peter Rhodes revisits memories from the front line, remembering soldiers who bravely battled for Britain.

As well as that, we speak to Forces Sweetheart Katherine Jenkins about singing for the troops in war zones and get to grips with wartime fashion, recipes and more.

Lest we forget.
