TV show to show fireplace for 12 hours

A 12-hour TV programme is going to be shown in Norway tonight which focuses solely on a burning fireplace.

But the monotony will be broken up - by commentary.

Experts on state broadcaster NRK will provide expert advice on topics like burning, slicing and stacking wood.

A producer said that it will make for "very slow but noble television."
