As we know, Edinburgh's Hogmanay is world-famous, so to tell us | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
what is happening in the capital tonight is a lady who not only knows | :01:59. | :02:02. | |

I am here at the Old Town Ceilidh on the historic Royal Mile just | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
outside St Giles' Cathedral, where we are bringing in the bells | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
But this is just part of Edinburgh's Hogmanay | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
as the celebrations are spread right across the city, | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
with 75,000 people enjoying one of the world's biggest outdoor parties. | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
And we'll be bringing you a slice of these festivities | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
with a brilliant performance from Scots rockers Biffy Clyro | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
At the castle, we'll start 2016 with a bang as the spectacular | :02:42. | :02:51. | |
fireworks light up the sky at midnight. | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
And I'll be chatting to revellers who have come from all over | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
the world to find out about their Hogmanay experience. | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
But first we are heading to the Ross Bandstand | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
in Princes Street Gardens, where the Boghall and Bathgate | :03:04. | :03:06. | |

Now it's time for a band who've had an incredibly successful year. | :06:23. | :06:29. | |

This year, their album Grind won best album at the Scots | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
It's the fabulous Treacherous Orchestra. | :06:36. | :06:44. | |
There were only four of them when we started rehearsing. | :06:45. | :10:58. | |
Earlier this year, ten students from Glasgow University became | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
a singing sensation on our TV screens as they beat 400 choirs | :11:02. | :11:04. | |
to become finalists in BBC Two's The Naked Choir. | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
Tonight, they have joined us to perform their mix | :11:07. | :11:08. | |

Now time to catch up with Carol in the capital. | :15:37. | :15:44. | |
Well, the party atmosphere really is heating up here | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
Earlier tonight, 2,016 people joined in for an enormous Strip The Willow | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
as they attempted to smash the record for the world's largest | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
It really was an amazing sight to have so many people birling up | :15:59. | :16:05. | |
And joining me now are some people who took part. | :16:06. | :16:24. | |
From Aberdeen. What brought you to Edinburgh? The ceilidh! What is it | :16:25. | :16:41. | |
like in Aberdeen? A bit grey! This is just amazing. You can say that | :16:42. | :16:51. | |
again. Where are you from? New York! This is totally different, why did | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
you come here? It has been on my bucket list for ten years and I kept | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
talking to my kids about it and now we are here. My niece lives here and | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
she is going back to the state in ten days. It has been amazing. The | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
weather is different here. The temperature is about the same but it | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
is lovely and there's no snow. Quite right. Where are you from? | :17:19. | :17:28. | |
Liverpool. It is fabulous here tonight. We will have to count the | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
people to see if they have broken the record. | :17:35. | :17:35. | |
We have got some tweaks. -- tweets. Raymond obviously got a selfie stick | :17:36. | :17:56. | |
for Christmas. And we have a gorgeous picture of the Northern | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
lights. Keep in touch and tell us what you are up to. | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
Now, time for more music from two of Scotland's finest musicians. | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
They have even set up shop here in the Fruitmarket. They have their | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
name above the door. They are always top of my | :18:20. | :18:20. | |
first-footing list - The fabulous Phil | :18:21. | :18:23. | |
Cunningham and Aly Bain. Now, I have caught up with some more | :18:24. | :21:31. | |
people enjoying the ceilidh We are from Chelmsford in Essex. | :21:32. | :21:46. | |

Willow as well. It was crazy, so many people joining in. And where | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
have you come from? Just down the road in Trinity, this is apparently | :22:06. | :22:13. | |
better than the street parties! The ceilidh has been fabulous. Where are | :22:14. | :22:17. | |
you from? Perth originally. I'm having a great time tonight, really | :22:18. | :22:25. | |
getting into it. How does it compare to Hogmanay in Perth? It is a long | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
time since I lived there but it was more traditional, it is bigger here | :22:32. | :22:37. | |
but a lot of fun. In my day we used to bring a lump of coal and a bottle | :22:38. | :22:44. | |
of whiskey round! Fabulous hats. We are dressed for the occasion! Where | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
have you come from? Sunny Norfolk. What brought you to Edinburgh? It | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
gives us a good work-out in the hills! Welcomer have a lovely | :22:57. | :23:03. | |
evening ahead. I think everybody is getting very excited but for now, it | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
is back to Glasgow. Now, our last performance of 2015 | :23:07. | :23:09. | |

towards the spectacular New Year fireworks, so before we count down | :28:26. | :28:34. | |
to midnight with stunning shots from round the country, | :28:35. | :28:38. | |
let's take a moment to reflect on the year gone by as we join our | :28:39. | :28:42. | |

you ready for a singsong? In an international song of friendship. We | :35:30. | :35:33. | |
have a very special arrangement of it. What else but Auld Lang Syne. | :35:34. | :35:38. | |
# Should auld acquaintance be forgot And never brought to mind? | :35:39. | :35:48. | |
# Should auld acquaintance be forgot and auld lang syne? | :35:49. | :36:01. | |
# And there's a hand my trusty fiere and gie's a hand o' thine | :36:02. | :36:39. | |
# And we'll tak' a right gude willie waught for auld lang syne | :36:40. | :36:48. | |

partnerships in history as they have What is the secret of this | :44:13. | :44:27. | |
partnership? What people don't realise is that we have been living | :44:28. | :44:31. | |
as a married couple for the last 25 years. The older we get, the better | :44:32. | :44:40. | |
we used to be, and that is what keeps us going. I wish you all the | :44:41. | :44:44. | |
best in your special year. What have you got for us? We are going to play | :44:45. | :44:50. | |
a tune I wrote for a good friend of ours. It is named after Tam the Gun. | :44:51. | :44:59. | |
Used to fire the canon. And then a set of three reels written by Aly | :45:00. | :45:07. | |
during a lucid moment. Are we ready? Phil and Aly starting their big year | :45:08. | :45:19. | |
