STV has announced its line-up for Hogmanay 2025, with much-loved Scottish stars including Peter Mullan, Jean Johansson, Grado, Susie McCabe and Siobhan Redmond all set to help viewers ring in the new year on STV and STV Player.

The broadcaster’s annual glitzy get-together, Bringing in the Bells (11:20pm, STV and STV Player), will once again see some of Scotland’s favourite famous faces throwing on their gladrags and popping the champers to celebrate the best moments of the last 12 months and keep viewers company as midnight approaches.

The programme’s star-studded line-up includes broadcaster Jean Johansson, who will reunite with actor and wrestler Grado for their annual confab. With Jean having travelled around the world as part of her presenting role on A Place in the Sun this year, and Grado recently announcing a staggering ten-show Two Doors Down residency at the OVO Hydro in 2026, there’s plenty for these unlikely pals to catch up on.

This year’s Bringing in the Bells guestlist also includes STV presenters (and besties) Sean Batty and Laura Boyd, as well as comedian Susie McCabe and broadcaster Gordon Smart. The programme will be narrated by Sanjeev Kohli – whose stellar 2025 included a role in international smash-hit Netflix series, Dept. Q – and will include two musical performances from a new star of 2025, Ullapool accordionist RuMac, who reached the semi-finals of Britain’s Got Talent earlier this year.

Jean Johansson said: “When STV called me up and said I’ll be bringing in the bells this year with a huge star who’s sold out ten shows at the Hydro, I couldn’t contain my excitement at the thought of being sat next to Lewis Capaldi, Alex Turner or Robbie Williams. Turns out it’s Grado again… but truth be told, I can’t think of anyone better to see in the new year with than Scotland’s premier star of stage and screen! Roll on Hogmanay!”
