Absolutely, and the incredibly talented Olivia Dean had a new album out in September, which is currently the No1 selling album.
Personally I thought it was one of the best Hootenanny's I've seen in many a year, great range and spread of artists, thoroughly enjoyed pretty much all of it - Imelda may impressed me a lot, didn't recognise her with the loss of the quiff and general 50's style.
The only act I wasn't very taken with were the Kooks, but even then I can recognise a decent band, just not my cup of coffee.
One observation is that the size of bagpiper band appeared to be hugely reduced, I could have sworn it used to be somewhere in the region of ~20 musicians, but on NYE it was 5 or 6 I think.
It's been all our family have watched at NY eve/midnight since it started way back in the last century, and I have continued that when I moved into my own home in the early 00s. Can't think of a better way to bring in the new year than an eclectic mix of live music.
The night manager has already been mentioned - watched the 1st and 2nd episodes (All that is available currently) and have so far found it just as captivating as the first series a decade ago 9/10 for me.
I do miss Tom Hollander who is one of my favourite actors of all time.
. Now have huge FOMO !
