Fare Well Part 3 - Edinburgh’s Hogmanay 2020

Words - Jackie Kay Soundtrack - Niteworks Visual development artist - Gary Wilson Drone display and film production - Celestial Read by - David Tennant, Siobhan Redmond, Lorne MacFadyen The final instalment of Fare Well and a message of hope for 2021! Whilst part one and two of Fare Well looked at the year gone by, the finale turns from the celebration of Hogmanay, the end of the year, and looks with optimism to the future. Taking inspiration from a poem by Robert Burns (Sketch New Year’s Day), Scots Makar Jackie Kay echoes Burns’ question about the night of Hogmanay and asks what did ‘yesternight deliver’ and like Burns, finds that there is hope, and that it is found in nature. Burns finds hope in looking up at the skies and says that something in us never dies.
