Volcano Live

This programme starts tonight on BBC2 at 9 o' clock, and runs for the next four nights. 
Plenty of advance information and buzz in the press today and various other places.
The Independent has a story from someone who has been lucky enough to take part in the latest tourist attraction on Iceland: a descent into the crater of Thrihnukagigur, which last erupted around 4000 years ago. I blogged about this a while back. Looks amazing....


The BBC is asking the question What is it like to be a volcanologist ?


On Twitter you can follow @BBCVolcanoLIVE, @KateHumble, @Profiainstewart for more (presumably) over the course of the programme.


A preview in The Telegraph.


There are some clips here on the programme's iPlayer page.

Why not join in the fun by making your own 3D volcano model for the night. You can download and print off this template from the British Geological Survey and have fun making your own volcano live, just like the one on the right....


If you have a question, you can also e-mail the team  - you might get a moment of glory when yours is picked - send it to volcanolive@bbc.co.uk

You'll lava lot of fun watching it, I pumice....


UPDATE
