What is on TV on New Year's Eve? Your guide on what to watch on television to see in 2021

    Most people will be having a very different New Year's Eve this year - and for lots of people it will involve seeing what is on the television.

    Starting with BBC One, where Graham Norton takes the reins from 10.25pm alongside guests Tom Hanks, Emily Blunt, Jamie Dornan, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Nish Kumar and Jessica Chastain.

    Alicia Keys will then be singing as part of 'Alicia Key's Rocks New Year's Eve' from 11.30pm - a special concert on location in Los Angeles. BBC One will also have live coverage of Big Ben at midnight.

    Jools Holland is on BBC Two as always from 11.15pm with his annual Hootenanny. He will be joined by his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra and plenty of guests to see in 2021.

    If it's a film you are after, then ITV have the James Bond film Skyfall from 9pm, followed by the News including Big Ben from 11.45pm.

    For live music fans, Sky One are broadcasting a recording of Queen Live from Wembley at 10.40pm, the Big Ben Bongs at midnight and then a live recording of the famous 1992 tribute concert for the late Queen singer Freddie Mercury.

    And finally if it's something more relaxing you are after, Sky Arts have Dutch violinist and conductor Andre Rieu giving a New Year's Eve concert in Vienna from 9.40pm with magical pieces by Viennese composers including Johann Strauss and Robert Stolz.

    Of course - here at MKFM we have our own very special New Year's Eve line up with DJ Hurley in the mix and commercial free from 8pm. Listen on 106.3FM, DAB Digital Radio and online with all the big tunes and Big Ben at midnight.
