Acclaimed by many as the greatest show on earth and undeniably one of the world's most breathtaking spectacles. The 2005 Edinburgh Tattoo DVD celebrates the 200th Anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar in the company of over 200 Royal Marine Bandsmen.

Regiments include 1st Battalion Scots Guards, 1st Battalion Irish Guards, 1st Battalion The Royal Scots (The Royal Regiment), 1st Battalion The Royal Highland Fusiliers (Princess Margaret's Own Glasgow and Ayrshire Regiment), 1st Battalion The King's Own Scottish Borderers, 1st Battalion The Black Watch (Royal Highland Regiment), 1st Battalion The Highlanders (Seaforth, Gordons and Camerons), 1st Battalion the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders (Princess Louise's), 1st Battalion The Royal Gurkha Rifles, Scotland's Universities Officer's Training Corps, The Rats of Tobruk, City of Wellington and the South African Irish Regiment.

The splendid sound you hear as the massed pipes and drums march out across the drawbridge and down the esplanade is spine-tingling and emotional for Scots across the world. It is truly something special, well worthy of the Castle setting and in the highest traditions of Army piping. Performers in 2005 included The Edinburgh Military Tattoo Highland Spring Dancers with The Highland Dancers from New Zealand, The Royal Marines Display, The Band of HM Royal Marines Plymouth, The Band of HM Royal Marines Scotland, The Band of HM Royal Marines Britannia Royal Naval College, The Highland Band of the Scottish Division, The Band of The Light Division, The Tattoo Choir (Kevock Choir) and the Lone Piper.
