Meanwhile, Britons around the world held their own Remembrance services, including troops on deployment in Kabul, Afghanistan.
Officers laid wreaths at a military base in the Middle Eastern country as a brass band played to honour those killed in the First and Second world wars, and in conflicts since.
In Hong Kong services also took place at the city's Cenotaph - organised by the Hong Kong and China branches of the Royal British Legion and the Hong Kong Ex-Servicemen's Association.
Back in London crowds were pictured being filtered through security barriers as The Observer revealed that police will be using facial recognition technology for the first time in an attempt to avoid trouble.
Officers are reported to be using a database of 50 people who are known for obsessive behaviour to public figures, and will be using the cameras to keep them away.
Around 10,000 current and former members of the military, dignitaries and members of the public are expected to attend the service, which marks 99 years since the end of the First World War.
