rdf:langString BBC One's New Year's Eve specials have aired in varying formats; in 2000, and since 2004, they prominently feature live coverage of London's New Year's Eve festivities, including the midnight bongs of Big Ben, and the fireworks show on the River Thames and London Eye. For 2000, the BBC led the global 2000 Today consortium, which televised coverage of New Year's events from around the world, and served as the host broadcaster for coverage of festivities from the United Kingdom. In 2003, the BBC began to broadcast New Year Live, which primarily featured live reports from the South Bank to cover the countdown to midnight. From 2006 to 2009, the special also featured music performances. Beginning in 2014, BBC One began to air concert specials as part of its New Year's Eve programming. The specials are divided into two parts, with an intermission approaching midnight for the live broadcast of the London fireworks. Other BBC channels also air New Year's Eve specials; since 2006, BBC Two has aired Jools' Annual Hootenanny—a concert special spun off from Later... with Jools Holland, while BBC One Scotland opts out to air Hogmanay (formerly Hogmanay Live), a special from Glasgow themed around Scotland's Hogmanay festivities.
