Good morning, guys. Ricky here with one day to go till the weekend, and

:00:00.:00:10.

some of this on the way: The latest on who wants to buy the

:00:11.:00:12.

multimillion-pound mountain that's up for sale.

:00:13.:00:16.

Plus, just what is going on in the final eliminator for this year's

:00:17.:00:26.

Eurovision? But first this Friday, to plans to

:00:27.:00:29.

search for new medicines under the sea.

:00:30.:00:40.

Next, the chairman of the English FA has been forced to defend new plans

:00:41.:00:46.

to try and improve the fortunes of the England footy team. A special

:00:47.:00:49.

commission has been looking into how to produce more top-quality English

:00:50.:00:52.

players in the future, and presented its ideas yesterday. They include

:00:53.:00:55.

stricter rules on the number of foreign players teams can sign as

:00:56.:00:59.

well as having a new league for Premier League B teams. That was

:01:00.:01:02.

heavily criticised by lots of people, prompting this response from

:01:03.:01:04.

Chairman Greg Dyke. They're difficult proposals and you

:01:05.:01:07.

cant possibly be sure that everyone's going to buy into them,

:01:08.:01:10.

but, the question I asked to the people who don't buy into them -

:01:11.:01:14.

well, what do you want to do? The analysis in this document is pretty

:01:15.:01:18.

damning for the future of English football and English boys'. If you

:01:19.:01:21.

don't want to buy into this, what do you want to do? It's not enough to

:01:22.:01:26.

say we do nothing. Well, he's asked for ideas and we want yours. What

:01:27.:01:29.

would you do to improve the England footy team in the future? Head to

:01:30.:01:33.

the Newsround website now to let us know.

:01:34.:01:35.

Well, the current England team is just five weeks away from the start

:01:36.:01:39.

of the World Cup in Brazil, and these tiny footballers will appear

:01:40.:01:42.

in short films on the BBC, starting this weekend, to help build up the

:01:43.:01:45.

football fever. They were designed by the company behind Shaun the

:01:46.:01:49.

Sheep, and Match of the Day Kickabout's Radzi went to get

:01:50.:01:52.

sneak-peek at how they were created. Danny, this looks incredible. All

:01:53.:01:55.

these shots of Brazil, what exactly is it? It is a journey to Brazil and

:01:56.:01:59.

we follow these for little football figures all the way from the UK all

:02:00.:02:03.

the way over to Brazil and their destiny is to get to them are con

:02:04.:02:07.

stadium to see the World Cup live. This kind of sums up the flavour of

:02:08.:02:11.

result for us, there's lots of colour, the street art, the

:02:12.:02:14.

football, the beach. How'd you get it to work? Presumably the

:02:15.:02:16.

characters themselves can't walk and talk themselves. We'll be using a

:02:17.:02:20.

method called CGI, which is computer-generated imagery. And what

:02:21.:02:22.

that means is we will be creating the characters in the computer and

:02:23.:02:26.

then we'll be putting them into a live action real film scene and try

:02:27.:02:30.

to make them look as though they're in the same environment. When I

:02:31.:02:36.

think of Brazil, I've got a really strong image in my head, did you

:02:37.:02:39.

have that? I did, yes, especially because in Brazil they are

:02:40.:02:42.

notoriously known for having so much passion about football and football

:02:43.:02:47.

and football! They absolutely love it, and they breathe it and when we

:02:48.:02:52.

got there it just lived up to all our expectations. You would go to

:02:53.:02:55.

Copacabana beach and you would just see thousands of balls flying up in

:02:56.:02:59.

the air morning till night, and yes, it was fantastic. It was amazing.

:03:00.:03:06.

And to find out how the finished videos look, check out Match of the

:03:07.:03:09.

Day Kickabout, Saturday morning at 7.30 on CBBC. To plans to search for

:03:10.:03:28.

new medicines under the sea. Scientists say ocean exploration

:03:29.:03:31.

could hold the key to finding new drugs to treat anything from

:03:32.:03:34.

infections to cancer. They think studying the genetic make-up and

:03:35.:03:36.

chemicals inside things like starfish could help them develop new

:03:37.:03:39.

life-saving drugs. Searches are already under way off the coast of

:03:40.:03:43.

Scotland, and the European Union is planning to put almost ?120 million

:03:44.:03:46.

into finding out more. Historically this isn't a place that people have

:03:47.:03:49.

looked, so they haven't exploited it and there's a whole raft of new

:03:50.:03:52.

technologies that are allowing one to screen more methodically, more

:03:53.:03:55.

scientifically. Next, to the mountain that's up for

:03:56.:03:58.

sale. Blencathra in the Lake District was put on the market

:03:59.:04:02.

earlier this week. Hi alIt will set you back ?1.75 million. The owner of

:04:03.:04:06.

the land is having to raise funds to pay off a huge bill. The mountain

:04:07.:04:18.

stands at over 2000 feet high. The mountain has been in private

:04:19.:04:23.

ownership for something like 400 years, the family are now selling it

:04:24.:04:30.

to pay, reportedly, and inheritance tax bill. Members of the community

:04:31.:04:33.

around about are clubbing together in an effort to put in a bid to

:04:34.:04:41.

themselves. Eurovision is one of the most

:04:42.:04:46.

watched shows on earth, but have a look at this entry. Their song is

:04:47.:04:58.

called Rise Up. What is the best way to sing a song like that? On a

:04:59.:05:01.

trampoline. The British
