London Eye New Year Celebrations 2012.
London welcomed 2012 with a spectacular firework display around the London Eye and Big Ben. Thousands of revellers have taken to the streets across the UK to herald the new year. Hundreds of thousands gathered in London to watch the 11-minute fireworks display under the London Eye, triggered by Big Ben's chimes. In a first for the London's New Year celebrations, the pyrotechnics were fired from the clock to coincide with each strike of the bell, marking the start of 2012.
There was a distinctly Olympian theme to the display on the River Thames with fireworks launched over the London Eye in the shape and colours of the Olympic rings. The accompanying soundtrack saw Chariots of Fire kick off a medley of London-themed songs
