'Supervolcano' charts the possible consequences of a volcanic eruption a thousand times greater than an ordinary volcano.
The drama is set in the future and uses scientific research and digital technology to predict what would happen if a supervolcano erupted beneath Yellowstone National Park in the US.
It was originally to air in January but was removed from the schedule after the Boxing Day tsunami.
'Supervolcano' will be supported by a two-part documentary on BBC Two exploring the scientific research behind the show. 'The Science behind Supervolcano' will also feature insights from experts around the world who monitor supervolcanoes.
BBC One invested £178m in its winter schedule, the highlights of which were 'Supervolcano' and the return of 'Dr Who', with Christopher Eccleston as the doctor and Billie Piper as his assistant, which is to be screened later this year.
