Volcano Live verdict

Volcano live was 4 days of live volcano reports from Hawaii on the BBC. It was OK with Iain Stuart fielding wild balls from Kate Humble , pre made mini docu films,some technical stuff which i was'nt expecting from the dumbed down BBC. Just a couple of things, why didnt they actually try to get some live material from somewhere as it was happening. Etna,Stromboli may have obliged, even Kilauea when madame pele is feeling courteous. The live bit was inside the camper van. It was good but not actually live volcano stuff- i know there not performing monkeys but some drama,excitement and a little percieved danger would have been good for the viewer. I loved it though and it made my week. Iain knows what he s talking about , Kate represented the public.

Volcano Live on the BBC

With Iain Stewart and Kate Humble. Lucky lucky people.

Having exhauasted filming small mammals the BBC is now into volcanoes. This week long series of specials brings volcanoes  from around the world. Kilauea and other parts other Hawaii. Looks pretty cool . Here s the link to the site http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00tmqd6
