The March 20 total solar eclipse event will be the first since Nov. 3, 2013. The dark umbral shadow cone of the moon will trace a curved path primarily over the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans, beginning off the southern tip of Greenland and then winding its way counterclockwise to the northeast, passing between Iceland and the United Kingdom.
The shadow will then pass over the Danish-owned Faroe Islands, the sparsely inhabited Norwegian island group of Svalbard and then it will hook counterclockwise toward the northwest, where it leaves the Earth’s surface just short of the North Pole.' http://www.space.com/28820-total-sol...arch-2015.html

Adios

They give mist and cloud where I am so Im not expecting to see it. Plus I'm in the half of the country which will only see 85% of the sun covered.

Here for random people around the world being brought together through the discovery that the eclipse has given them powers..
That would make a cracking plot for a TV show

Looking forward to this. The programme with Brian Cox and Dara O'Briain was great last night with the legend Buzz Aldrin as a guest.

Won't this smog now affect the visibility?

According to this - http://webcache.googleusercontent.co...&ct=clnk&gl=uk - you shouldn't use film?

Stay safe when viewing the eclipse
Observers must take care when taking photos of the eclipse on digital devices, as eye experts have warned that doing so could cause blindness. Skygazers have been told to not look directly at the sun when they take selfies and other photographs, as doing so can lead to burns at the back of the eye, even with the use of dark sunglasses. Though looking at the eclipse on a screen is not dangerous in itself, it might lead to inadvertently looking at it in the process of trying to capture the perfect shot. When viewing the eclipse, you can use a homemade pinhole camera and face away from the sun. http://www.theguardian.com/science/2...u-need-to-know
