Hello, I'm Hayley and welcome to Newsround.

0:00:040:00:07

The boy wonder who is wowing the world of jazz.

0:00:070:00:11

And it's Pixie Come Dancing, as Strictly returns to

0:00:110:00:13

our screens tonight.

0:00:130:00:15

This is Newsround.

0:00:150:00:22

Britain's greatest ever distance runner, Mo Farah has won

0:00:220:00:24

his first Great North Run, becoming the first British man to

0:00:240:00:25

win the race in 29 years.

0:00:270:00:30

He adds this win to his Olympic and World Championship double-gold

0:00:300:00:33

medals.

0:00:330:00:36

Mo took the lead from the start and battled through to

0:00:360:00:39

a thrilling finale, as he beat his former training partner

0:00:390:00:41

Mike Keegan of Kenya by just a metre in the sprint for the finish line.

0:00:410:00:45

He finished in one hour exactly, a new personal best, and said he

0:00:450:00:48

had to work hard for the win.

0:00:480:00:53

I got massive support from the crowd.

0:00:530:00:55

I had to dig in deep.

0:00:550:00:57

He is a great athlete and he kept pushing and pushing and pushing so I

0:00:570:01:01

was thinking just hang in, hang in and then once we dropped everybody I

0:01:010:01:06

was thinking it is just me and you, but he wanted to run fast and put

0:01:060:01:10

his foot down and kept pushing and pushing

0:01:100:01:12

and there was a couple of times where I was thinking how many more

0:01:120:01:16

miles, two more miles, three more

0:01:160:01:18

miles, but I just had to dig in.

0:01:180:01:19

My aim was to run 60 something but I did not know I was going to run that

0:01:190:01:24

fast, and it was great to finish the season with a win

0:01:240:01:27

and a good time and I can take my break and relax now.

0:01:270:01:31

The half-marathon race takes

0:01:310:01:37

place each year in Newcastle and Gateshead.

0:01:370:01:52

Nearly 60,000 runners are running the 13.1 mile course today,

0:01:520:01:55

many of them raising lots of money for charities.

0:01:550:01:57

And this year the race will see the millionth runner in its 34 year

0:01:570:02:00

history, cross the finish line.

0:02:000:02:08

Let me introduce you to Hose.

0:02:080:02:10

He's wowing audiences across South America with his amazing jazz music,

0:02:100:02:13

but's he's only nine and he's blind.

0:02:130:02:19

He may not look like your typical rock star

0:02:190:02:22

but he is a rising star but only in his playground but in the whole

0:02:220:02:26

of Bolivia in South America.

0:02:260:02:29

He started to play music when he was four and by the time he was five he

0:02:290:02:33

had formed his own jazz band.

0:02:330:02:36

Now he regularly performs to audiences of thousands of people

0:02:360:02:38

and more.

0:02:380:02:38

I have already been to Brazil and to Lima.

0:02:380:02:43

I am also playing in other places such as La Paz and Santa Cruz.

0:02:430:02:47

I already famous because I travel a lot.

0:02:470:02:52

Many people say he has got more musical talent than other musicians

0:02:520:03:00

three times his age and last week he impressed audiences

0:03:000:03:03

at a big music festival.

0:03:030:03:05

The fact that he is blind only makes his playing more impressive.

0:03:050:03:09

And he hopes to take his talents further field

0:03:090:03:11

for the rest of the world to see.

0:03:110:03:18

Formula One now and Britain's Lewis Hamilton started in pole position in

0:03:180:03:21

the Italian Grand Prix, which sees the massive rivalry continue with

0:03:210:03:23

his Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg.

0:03:230:03:25

But he got off to a terrible start, and dropped to fourth place

0:03:250:03:29

by the first corner of the race, with Rosberg taking the lead.

0:03:290:03:31

So how's he getting on now?

0:03:310:03:36

These are live pictures from the race, on BBC1 right now.

0:03:360:03:39

As the race has gone on, Hamilton's been fighting back,

0:03:390:03:45

clawing fractions of a second back from Rosberg.

0:03:450:03:55

There are just 10 laps to go now, so we're in for a thrilling finish.

0:03:550:03:59

The two drivers are battling it out at the top of

0:03:590:04:01

the Formula One world championship, and with just a few races left,

0:04:010:04:04

Rosberg's ahead on points, so Lewis really needs to win this race.

0:04:040:04:07

Get your sequins at the ready dance fans, because

0:04:070:04:09

Strictly Come Dancing shimmeys its way back onto our screens tonight.

0:04:090:04:12

The celeb-packed line-up this year includes Pixie Lott, Scott Mills

0:04:120:04:14

and Deadly 60's Steve Backshall, who told us that even after all

0:04:140:04:18

the deadly creatures he's faced, this is his biggest challenge yet.

0:04:180:04:24

I think more than anything though it is that I have always been

0:04:240:04:27

very driven by challenges and things that frighten me and I

0:04:270:04:30

have been working with snakes and sharks and spiders and mountains

0:04:300:04:33

and things for 15 years now.

0:04:330:04:37

This is something completely new and very very frightening, and for that

0:04:370:04:39

reason I am really excited about it.

0:04:390:04:41

I had my first costume fitting the other day and they got all

0:04:410:04:49

of the shirts and the lycra and sequence and stuff and

0:04:490:04:53

for 15 minutes all I could do when I saw sight of myself in the mirror

0:04:530:04:57

was just a giggle like a schoolboy.

0:04:570:04:59

I would see myself and start chuckling.

0:04:590:05:02

Well I can hardly wait - and you've been getting in touch

0:05:020:05:05

on the website, too:

0:05:050:05:16

Lauren's so glad that Strictly is back.

0:05:160:05:17

She's been watching it since she was young, and she's looking

0:05:170:05:20

forward to watching this series.

0:05:200:05:21

She wants Pixie Lott to win.

0:05:210:05:22

Oskar says "I am so exited for Steve Backshall and Gregg Wallace,

0:05:220:05:25

because I love Deadly Pole to Pole and Masterchef."

0:05:250:05:28

But he also says he's quite sad to see Brucie go.

0:05:280:05:33

Dunblane - and thinks she will win.

0:05:330:05:35

Thanks so much for all those comments, keep em coming in.

0:05:350:05:37

Last up - the Canadian rider Brandon Semenuk has won

0:05:370:05:40

the urban freeride event in the historic German city of Nuremberg.

0:05:400:05:42

He's been jumping, spinning and dropping from historical attractions

0:05:420:05:45

like a castle and big churches.

0:05:450:05:46

Not your usual biker backdrop.

0:05:460:05:47

That's all from me, Newsround's back tomorrow morning where we'll hear

0:05:470:05:50

from Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani schoolgirl shot

0:05:500:05:51

by the Taliban for going to school.

0:05:510:05:53

She'll be telling us about the book of her extraordinary

0:05:530:05:56

life, that she's written especially for young people.

0:05:560:05:57

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

0:05:570:05:59

Bye!

0:05:590:06:00

She's the beast.

0:06:140:06:15

When she was dancing, her eyes turned yellowy.

0:06:150:06:17

Normal girls can't do that.
