Greg Milam leading Sky's coverage (talking to reporters at Heathrow, Glasgow) of the Volcanic cloud on location in Iceland.


He's in Iceland? That was the irony of course, Iceland's airport remained open!

Edit: well done Sky.


Apparently if the rain clouds clear the volcano should be visible from Greg's position.

ITV had Jonathan Irvine 12 miles from the volcano in their Lunchtime News, so ITV beat Sky on this one.

John, not Jonathan. Or, if you're from Norn Iron and of a certain age, Johnny.

I think they were probably all on the same flight - Good Morning America were there live this morning as well with their correspondent doing stuff for BBC World News/News Channel.

That interview with the woman from Mumsnet was painful! Only to end in Adam talking over Jeff, and both reading the link into the break... again!

Isn't just? His website refers to Sky News at Ten with Stephen Dixon, whereas the official Sky listings and the Sky EPG still call him 'Steve'.

Is there another Steve Dixon around he might not want to be confused with?
