options brokers - volatility analysis

I have decided to use some of my SA money to start trading options as I will be joining a eq derivs desk in a year and want to start putting theory into practice.

I have been looking around for an online broker and so far interactive brokers seems to be the way to go. However, does anybody know which brokers actually have vol analysis as part of their platform, ie be able to look at skew/term structure of implied vols both current and historical.

The only solution seems to be to build a spreadsheet that connects to IB with their API but was hoping there was a less laborous solution out there.

The other thing seems to be Livevol Pro, but its 100/month and i dont think it does UK equities.

Thanks.
