There will be one interval

Award-winning singer and star of the west end Alfie Boe joins a stellar musical line-up for this year’s Scottish celebrations of BBC Proms In The Park when the spectacular outdoor music event returns to Glasgow Green next month, on Saturday 7 September 2013.

He will join singing sensation Melanie C as the former Spice Girl-turned-musical-leading-lady also takes part in the iconic open-air concert alongside a myriad of musicians including the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Scottish fiddler John McCusker, Scot soprano Kate Valentine and tenor Nicky Spence, amongst others.

Presented by Jamie MacDougall and Susan Calman, this year’s Scottish Proms In The Park will also feature music and imagery from Hebrides: Islands on the Edge, BBC Scotland’s acclaimed landmark natural history series.

Great, well organised event again with a something-for-everyone cast, though I could have lived without "singing sensation", Melanie C. Susan Calman and Jamie MacDougall were good hosts, the setting was just right and the fireworks were spectacular.
Loads of Saltires being flown but I saw only three Union Flags; we didn't do the Land of Hope and Glory/ Rule Britannia/God Save the Queen and Jerusalem bit, though we did suffer Highland bloody Cathedral.

There's more saltires on an Orange walk in Glasgow these days.
"I before E, except after C" works in most cases but there are exceptions.
