The Celebs Stuck Abroad By The Volcano Eruption

Blog: Things that Pop into my Head

It's not just ordinary folks being affected by the volcanic ash spewing over Europe, some celebrities have been stranded too.

As the time for resuming flights keeps getting pushed back, the number of people stranded abroad keeps growing, and its not just us ordinary folk.

Several heads of state were unable to attend the funeral of Polish President Lech Kaczynski including Camilla Parker Bowles, US President Barack Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Radio 1 DJ Chris Moyles was stuck in New York, apparently he is busy today setting up a studio in order to broadcast tomorrow's breakfast show, news reader Dominic Byrne is also currently stranded in Majorca with his family.

John Cleese opted to pay for a taxi for the 943 miles from Norway to London, costing £3000 for three drivers over 15 hours as there was no alternative means of transport. Gary Lineker managed to get a flight to Madrid from Tenerife, hire a car at the airport then took the Eurostar from Paris to London, getting back just in time to present Match of the Day on Saturday.

Whitney Houston was forced to go to Dublin to continue her world tour via Stenaline's car ferry instead of her usual first class travel arrangements.

The last time this volcano erupted, it spewed out ash for months and although alternatives such as deploying th Royal Navy to bring back stranded holidaymakers is being discussed, it is not clear what will happen for big sporting events, for example, such as the London Marathon where competitors arrive from all over the world.
