Episode Details

A new national honor, the Elizabeth Emblem Award, is shining a spotlight on unsung heroes who gave their lives in public service — including Northern Ireland police officers killed during the Troubles. Established in 2024 as the civilian counterpart to the Elizabeth Cross, it recognizes those like Constable Mervyn Robinson, Prison Officer Patrick Kerr, and Reserve Constable Samuel Stewart — all fallen while serving their communities. With 67 emblems awarded across the UK — 39 to Northern Irish police — and honoring families of MPs Jo Cox and David Amess, this award ensures their sacrifice isn’t forgotten. The emblem, adorned with rosemary and the Tudor Crown, bears the inscription “For A Life Given in Service,” and its nomination process invites public recognition — a powerful tribute to bravery that deserves to be remembered forever.
