I'll be looking for it Jayne... As I wandered through the various links related to the clip you posted I came to another review (BBC I think) and it mentioned a poem by Carol Ann Duffy commemorating the WW1 and the last two survivors of that war. It's awesome.

Here it is, read by actor Samantha Morton. The recited poem along with the visuals that accompany the reading made me cry inside.

WE DEEPLY REGRET TO INFORM YOU

Telegrams in their millions,
The hearts of loved ones sink.
All that wasted paper,
All that wasted ink.
