- Hootenanny (UK TV series)
"Hootenanny" is an annual
New Year's Eve music show presented byJools Holland as an off-shoot of his "Later with Jools Holland " series. It is broadcast between 11pm and around 1am every 31 December in theUK onBBC2 .The show generally features a wide variety of musical acts from various genres (as with "Later"), who perform both before and after midnight. All the guests (drawn from across the world of showbusiness) and other guest audience members present, and the artists themselves, get involved in the
Hogmanay party atmosphere and there is a countdown to the midnight start of the New Year, followed by a traditional rendition of "Auld Lang Syne ", often with akilt wearing military marching band, replete with bagpipes. Among the regular events of the evening is the spot where Holland asks actor and comedianRowland Rivron his predictions for the year ahead/hisNew Year's resolutions .The title of the show is a
misnomer , as a is an informal festive performance byfolk singers , often with audience participation using acoustic instruments.Pre-recording
Some claim that the show deceives viewers into thinking that the show is broadcast live, but the
BBC itself has admitted that the show is not broadcast live and is instead "an idealised New Year's Eve party with a line-up that would surely be impossible to deliver on December 31" [ [http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/showbiz/showbiznews.html?in_article_id=506200&in_page_id=1773 Viewers' fury at "live" New Year's Eve show - Daily Mail] ] .2006/07 edition
