RTÉ One has The Gathering, over on Beeb Two, they're throwing ye olde Scottish Hootenanny, Beeb One has eh, Gabby Logan with some fireworks, and UTV is showing the news but check out the hipsters on Channel 4. House Party is back for a 2012 send off which invites viewers to throw parties with live DJ sets by six top international acts, including Annie Mac, Frankie Knuckles, Norman Jay, Hercules and the Love Affair, Charlie Sloth and Toddla T Sound. The event brings house parties together from around the UK, and, by turning the television or laptop into the ultimate DJ booth, gives everyone the opportunity to celebrate the New Year with their personal line-up of world-class DJs and VJs, who are playing directly to the TV audience, rather than a packed studio. Bleedin' hipsters! What's wrong with Auld Lang Syne and a bottle of year-old cooking sherry? Tsk!
