The Chewin’ the Fat gang return for another Hogmanay special, bringing a fresh batch of sketches, familiar faces and gloriously daft Scottish humour to see in the New Year.

Mark Oliver Everett, singer of the band EELS, on his quest to get to know his late father, quantum physicist Hugh Everett III, who invented the Many Worlds theory.

Neil Oliver and Tony Pollard set out to solve one of the biggest puzzles in battlefield archaeology. 700 years ago, Robert the Bruce's overwhelming victory over the English at the Battle of Bannockburn helped seal Scotland's future as an independent kingdom, although the actual location remains a mystery. With the help of leading battlefield archaeologists, stuntmen, computer-generated graphics and some digging, Neil and Tony go in search of both the real and imagined Battle of Bannockburn.
