Specialist glasses have sold out at major retailers as Britons prepare for the best solar eclipse in decades. More than 90% of the sun will be obscured by the moon between 6.17pm and 8.06pm on Wednesday, the most it has been blocked above UK skies since the total eclipse in 1999. Convenience stores, national parks and the Royal Greenwich Observatory have all exhausted their glasses supplies ahead of the eclipse, which will be the country’s fullest for the next 54 years. Speaking with Former Conservative Special Advisor Charlie Rowley, Talk's Ian Collins says: "I have never got fired up about an eclipse!" #solareclipse #weather #iancollins #talk Have you got a story?
