The Poppy Girls Deliver A Moving Performance Of “The Call” Before The Queen At A Royal Event

Performing for royalty is a rare honor, and in 2013, The Poppy Girls had that unforgettable opportunity. This group of five young singers, all daughters of British service members, took the stage at the Royal British Legion’s Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall.
Their song choice, The Call (No Need to Say Goodbye), carried deep emotional weight, paying tribute to families with loved ones in the military. Ranging in age from 10 to 17, Megan Adams, Florence Ransom, Alice Milburn, Bethany Davy, and Charlotte Mellor delivered a performance that left the audience deeply moved.
Their harmonies, rich with emotion, captured the bittersweet longing felt by those separated from their families due to service. As their voices filled the hall, a sense of unity and remembrance washed over the crowd, making the moment truly unforgettable.
As the final note drifted into silence, the audience erupted in cheers, expecting the singers to take their final bow. But before they could leave the stage, the host stepped forward with unexpected news—Megan’s father, serving overseas in the Indian Ocean, couldn’t be there to watch her performance.
What she didn’t know was that a life-changing moment was about to unfold. Just beyond the curtain, a surprise awaited, one that would turn an already emotional night into something unforgettable. Watch the video below to witness the full performance and the heartfelt reunion that left everyone in tears.
The Poppy Girls’ journey was remarkable. The talented group captivated audiences with their heartfelt performance on Britain’s Got Talent. Their impressive audition didn’t just win over the judges—it led to an unforgettable honor.
The group was invited to perform at the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance, singing before the Queen herself. It was a moment of prestige and pride, highlighting their incredible journey from contestants to nationally recognized voices.
