As we continue to be locked down in endless monotony, there's been something very exciting happening to our neighbours in Iceland for the last 2 weeks.

Irish photographer Cat Gundry-Beck joined Mairead on the show from Iceland to tell her what it's been like.

The volcano has been erupting for about a week now, and thankfully it hasn't hurt anyone and no property has been destroyed, so it has turned into a tourist eruption!

Cat is now working on about 10 projects and has photographed the volcano for Reuters, BBC, CNN and her work has also appeared on the front page of the New York Times.
