Good evening everybody. We are live with you for the next hour or so

:00:09.:00:12.

from the heart of London, just a stone's throw from Big Ben, counting

:00:13.:00:16.

down to the new year. I'm about to head inside, join my band and 2,000

:00:17.:00:21.

very noisy people. Before the music starts, Susanna Reid reed is down on

:00:22.:00:27.

the embankment with thousands of party goers ready to tell us what

:00:28.:00:30.

happens when the clock strikes midnight.

:00:31.:00:33.

Thank you very much indeed. Yes, I'm down here on the embankment, where

:00:34.:00:40.

we are expecting the most spectacular fireworks display, when

:00:41.:00:46.

the clock, Big Ben, strikes midnight. I can report that the

:00:47.:00:52.

crowd are in great spirits. Let's go and talk to some of them now. Good

:00:53.:00:55.

evening, where have you come down from? Stoke. From Stoke. You came

:00:56.:01:03.

early, didn't you? Yes. We've been here since 10. 45am. You've braved

:01:04.:01:08.

the rain. Luckily, it's good weather now. I can tell you that there is

:01:09.:01:12.

going to be a multisensory experience when it comes to the

:01:13.:01:15.

fireworks tonight. Here are the details: The crowd will taste

:01:16.:01:19.

strawberries when the fireworks go red. There will be a whiff of apple

:01:20.:01:22.

in the air when the fireworks go green. There will be giant fruits

:01:23.:01:27.

projected on the Shell building. There will be bubbles in the air

:01:28.:01:31.

with the tang of orange, snow that tastes of peach and banana-flavoured

:01:32.:01:37.

confetti. It sounds like a scene from Charlie and the Chocolate

:01:38.:01:41.

Factory. Are you looking forward to it?

:01:42.:01:44.

CHEERING Brilliant. Join us again, just

:01:45.:01:49.

before midnight for that fantastic fireworks display. Before then, back

:01:50.:01:53.

to you, Gary, for some spectacular music.

# Today I took back what was stolen

:02:36.:03:07.

# And gave new life to what was frozen

:03:08.:03:11.

# A thousand faces watched me falling

:03:12.:03:18.

# I've made my peace with what may happen

:03:19.:03:22.

# Lying in the longest grass I sit and wait

:03:23.:04:15.

# And gave new life to what was frozen

:04:16.:04:22.

# A thousand faces watched me falling

:04:23.:04:30.

# I've made my peace with what may happen

:04:31.:04:34.

# I know you heard I was going through hell

:04:35.:05:19.

Rocking tonight. Listen, I'm very proud to have a new album this year.

it's been received so well. Thank you everybody, for all the support

:15:30.:15:33.

you've given me. Shall we do a new song now? This one is called Face to

:19:14.:19:20.

is an amazing singer. Please welcome Mr Alfie Boe!

songs. They don't do boy bands like they used to. No, they don't, mate.

:33:44.:33:55.

Mr James car Cordon everybody. APPLAUSE

:33:56.:33:57.

I specifically chose not to do a duet tonight, but I found some

:33:58.:34:01.

footage, I have to share this with you.

:34:02.:34:06.

Back to 1993 everyone. That's 20 years ago. A little place

:34:07.:34:10.

in Berlin. I thought if I was going to do a duet, I've done one with a

:34:11.:34:16.

lot of people. I'd choose someone young, good looking, wearing a red

:34:17.:34:24.

jacket, who played the pinot -- piano, someone like this guy.

:34:25.:34:32.

# A man who's trying to say three words

:34:33.:34:58.

# And here I am trying to tell you that I care

:34:59.:35:14.

# And here I am trying to tell you that I care

:35:15.:36:34.

This is the last song before midnight everybody. Please enjoy

:36:35.:38:15.

Rule The World. # They're lighting up the sky

:38:16.:38:33.

tonight # They're lighting up the sky

:38:34.:40:45.

tonight 2013 is nearly over. But I will be

:40:46.:42:32.

back with more music next year, which is in about ten minutes,

:42:33.:42:35.

straight after what I reckon will be some special fireworks. Let's go

:42:36.:42:39.

join the dancing queen herself, Susanna Reid.

:42:40.:42:45.

Oh, Gary, thank you so much. It's not just me that's dancing,

:42:46.:42:51.

thousands of people down here on the embankment, dancing their way into

:42:52.:42:54.

2014.
