Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo: Celebrating 70 Years

BBC1, Monday, 7.20pm

It’s a long-running tradition but the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo has had a miserable couple of years – both the 2020 and 2021 events have been cancelled due to coronavirus.

We’re promised it will be back next year, but until then, fans will have to make do with this programme, which celebrates the event’s 70th anniversary by looking back at some stunning performances involving marching bands, military displays and, of course, a lone piper.
