Tom,
The show was broadcast live from here in the morning,and shown live in the evening in England, so that is what I meant by BBC time. It had a pretty small crew, but they were all over this side of the Big Island, and used a lot of helicopter time on the show, I think they may have planned it when we still had the lava ocean entry putting on a big show.
My point about calling this Big Island was that people who live in Hawaii don't call Hawaii "Big Island" we call it THE Big Island and it sounded really funny to hear someone keep calling it Big Island (sort of like Big Dog) instead. Those three little letters make a surprising difference to the ear.
The woman who co-narrated the show has done some great shows on the spice trade, and the geologist guy has done some of my all time favorite nature documentaries, but the fact that the show was live really seemed to rattle her. He is also a university professor at Edinburgh so is used to lecturing live, but I think she was more used to retakes being an option. It was still a pretty good show though.
