Lorraine Kelly, Grado and Jean Johansson among star-studded line-up for STV's Hogmanay bash

Lorraine Kelly and Jean Johansson are among the star-studded line-up for STV's Hogmanay bash this year as they help those at home see in 2023.

'Bringing in the Bells' will feature some of Scotland's most stunning country homes and big names from the worlds of showbiz, comedy and sport, chatting through the best TV moments, sporting glories, celebrity gossip, and major news stories of 2022.

The celebrations will conclude with the customary Auld Lang Syne singalong as the clock strikes midnight. Leading the stellar line-up is Jean Johansson and wrestler/actor Grado, for the second year in a row.

The pair have had a jam-packed year which has seen Jean branch out from her daytime TV roots to front hard-hitting documentary, The Truth About Scotland and Racism, and Grado return to screens as gormless Alan in BAFTA-winning sitcom, Two Doors Down.

This year's line-up will also include Liz and Eilish McColgan, Judy Murray and Chris Forbes, Sanjeev Kohli and Jane McCarry, Sean Batty and Laura Boyd.

Jean said: "How has it been a whole year since Grado and I giggled our way through STV’s last Hogmanay show?

"This year has been another crazy one, with so many interesting moments both personally and in the world of news, so I’m excited to be taking stock of it all over a glass of fizz with one of the funniest men on telly once again!”

Grado added: "What better way to see in the New Year than in a posh hoose with a wee dram and her aff A Place in the Sun?!

"I've known Jean for years and we always have such a laugh when we get together. Last year’s show was a hoot so when STV asked me to bring in the bells with Jean again, it was an absolute no-brainer."

Bringing in the Bells airs on STV and STV Player from 11:30pm on Hogmanay.

STV's 2022 Hogmanay lineup:

20:30 – The National Lottery’s New Year’s Eve Big Bash

22:35 – John Bishop’s End of Year Show

23:30 – Bringing in the Bells
