The panellist on News Quiz and presenter of Great British Menu will get the pre-recorded party underway from Pacific Quay's Studio A, bringing a lively mix of both traditional and popular music, including Scottish music legends Travis, and chat in Susan Calman’s (Not Quite) End of Year Show on the BBC Scotland channel on Hogmanay. The party will get in to full swing from 11.30pm on both the BBC Scotland channel and BBC One Scotland with Hogmanay 2019, when Susan will invite Des Clarke and Amy Irons to join the party and help her bring in the New Year from around Scotland. “Hogmanay is such an important occasion across the country and I’m delighted to be on hand to help usher in the New Year. It’s going to be a fun night packed with great comedy, entertainment and music. I always like to get a party started and hope everyone will join me to welcome in 2020 in spectacular fashion," said Susan. This year's extended programme - broadcast on both the BBC Scotland channel and BBC One Scotland - will bring the best of traditional and popular music for armchair audiences and help bring in the New Year in style. "We've changed things a little this year so that we can bring all the key live moments from around Scotland, as we always do, as well as bringing great music for the hundreds of thousands who join us in their living rooms - and we also have a brand new presenting team of household names. It’s great to have Susan, Des and Amy fronting our shows," said BBC Scotland Head of Commissioning, Steve Carson. DH SATURDAY 16 NOVEMBER TELEVISION & RADIO HIGHLIGHTS / BBC WEEK 44 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Championship Boxing TV HIGHLIGHT Saturday, 16 November BBC Scotland, 10-11.30 pm It has been billed as the biggest all-Scottish fight in a decade and BBC Scotland will be there to cover all the action live. Commonwealth bantamweight champion Lee McGregor and British belt holder Kash Farooq are putting their titles on the line at Glasgow's Emirates Arena in this eagerly-awaited contest. The two fighters have stayed friends during their journeys up the boxing ranks, but when the bell rings the camaraderie will be set aside as they go for glory in this prestigious twin title bout. The pre-fight talk between Glasgow-based Farooq and Edinburgh’s Lee McGregor has been friendly but they’re each confident in their abilities to get the job done. Meeting up at BBC Scotland to talk about the event, the fighters were also united in their appreciation of the new digital channel for giving the sport a live platform. Watching live televised bouts as youngsters inspired them to take up the sport and they expressed their appreciation to the channel for screening fights which could motivate other youngsters to follow them into the ring. Connie McLaughlin introduces live coverage from the Emirates and Alex Arthur and Nick Halling are providing the commentary. JG Belladrum 2019 (Highlights) Saturday 16 November BBC ALBA, 9-10pm Fiona MacKenzie and Niall Iain Macdonald look back at Belladrum 2019 with music from the main stage performances by Elephant Sessions and Skerryvore and an acoustic set from Stephanie Cheape.

This year some of the organisations to come under the spotlight include Blue Sky Autism, based in Stirlingshire, immersive theatre project Regen: FX Youth Trust which runs in Lanarkshire, and Versus Arthritis in Ayrshire, which helps young people suffering from the debilitating condition. LD Paramedics on Scene, Ep 8/10 Sunday 17 November BBC Scotland, 9-10pm In this episode, the cameras follow ambulance crews in Aberdeenshire, Edinburgh and Paisley, and the Special Operations Response Teams as they deal with the most serious calls. In Aberdeen, ambulance crew Sarah and Stewart are called to a lady who has fallen at home and needs to be checked over. Up the road near Peterhead, an elderly patient who has difficulties moving needs to be transferred to hospital. Ambulance crew Ricky and Luan use their skills to help him safely into the ambulance. Outside Glasgow, Special Operations paramedic Brian gets a call to a woman with breathing problems - which could be a sign of something really serious. Later, he is called to help his colleagues at a bus crash in Glasgow that has left a few passengers injured. In Edinburgh, Moira and Blair are called to a lady who has collapsed on Princes Street and needs to be taken to hospital. In Paisley, Gary and Pete respond to a call about a young boy with a rare heart condition who has had a seizure and needs to be checked in hospital.

HM The Big Scottish Book Club, Ep 2/4 Sunday 17 November BBC Scotland, 10-11pm This week on The Big Scottish Book Club writer Damian Barr is in Perthshire at the Inchyra Arts Club, with as Damian explains “a barnful of some of the world’s best writers.” The theme for the second chapter of this series is memoir, with a welter of life and emotion up for discussion from family issues to near death experiences.

    PRESS RELEASE scottishballet.co.uk Scottish Ballet to take over televisions this Christmas with two special BBC commissions Scottish Ballet is delighted to announce that the 50th anniversary year will culminate with two special BBC commissions, which will see the company take over televisions this festive period. In a year of celebrations for Scotland’s national dance company, Scottish Ballet’s 50th anniversary comes to a spectacular close with the world premiere of CEO / Artistic Director Christopher Hampson’s The Snow Queen. The glittering new production will provide the stage for a special performance capture that will be broadcast on BBC Scotland and BBC Four, and close the story on the Five Wishes campaign and a heartwarming documentary of the same name that will be broadcast on BBC One (Scotland) and BBC Scotland. The Snow Queen BBC Scotland audiences will be treated to a special performance of this new ballet as the glittering production takes over their homes, with a feature length screening. Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s much-loved tale, The Snow Queen is a story of love and friendship. From the bustle of a winter’s market to the shivers of a fairytale forest, the production takes a journey to the Snow Queen’s palace and finds her surrounded by the icy fragments of an enchanted mirror. Guaranteed to transport the whole family to a place of wonder, The Snow Queen is choreographed by Christopher Hampson, in collaboration with multi-award winning designer Lez Brotherston. Set to the music of Rimsky-Korsakov, the score will be performed by the full Scottish Ballet Orchestra.

Catherine started performing stand-up in 2015 and since then has enjoyed a rapid rise through the ranks of UK and Irish comedy. In 2016, she was a finalist in both the BBC New Comedy Awards and Funny Women, drawing praise in the final of the former for having “a distinctive voice and a story you’d like to hear” (Chortle) and in the latter for being “pretty much the perfect comedy package” (Beyond The Joke). 2016 also saw Catherine and fellow comic Cally Beaton perform their show Catcall for a full run at the Edinburgh Fringe, enjoying packed houses and stellar reviews.

    Don’t even think of applauding acts frenetically for nothing more than walking on. This makes the ensuing performance pointless. Excitement can only get lost. Worse than undeserved applause at the start, is loud clapping during a show.
