I've been taking a look at all the latest with loom bands. | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
Loom band came about when a crash test engineer from the United States | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
spent time with his family. I got the idea from my daughters. They | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
were making bracelets, so I wanted to impress them and I came out this | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
way with a two to make more elaborate designs than they can make | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
by hand. Now it is worth millions and it is more than just a craze. | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
These guys from a village outside Cambridge are involved in a national | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
project to get kids making art in school. They use loom bands to make | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
sculptures. I like the idea it is getting people doing thing. Anything | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
that stops people just doing nothing. It is creative and it could | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
lead to somebody being a designer. But it is not all good news. Pinging | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
into people's eyes and hurting fingers and they may not be good for | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
the environment. We were caught by surprise that this craft can be that | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
popular. So we are thinking about how to instruct the customer on how | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
to recycle this. But for now, loom bands aren't going anywhere any time | :03:42. | :03:43. | |
soon. Next, it's one of the biggest prizes | :03:44. | :03:56. | |
in Rugby League - the Challenge Cup - and we're getting towards the | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
business end, with both semi-finals At 2 o'clock this afternoon, | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
Leeds Rhinos will take on Warrington Wolves, live on BBC | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
One, but ahead of that, how about giving some of the game's top stars, | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
a challenge with a difference? You need to do four kicks. Whoever | :04:09. | :04:19. | |
completes that in the quickest time will be the winner. It sounds easy. | :04:20. | :04:30. | |
Let's see. Gar Gareth O'Brien, Warrington, is going to start. He | :04:31. | :04:39. | |
got here an hour early. He has been practicing. Oh, no, the pressure's | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
got to him. Strike, Jamie. No practicing. Oh, no, the pressure's | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
rower. The only back row to do this. He is just taking it steady. Bad | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
foot. Easy. Bit of a rush on there. He might win this. He looks | :04:56. | :05:07. | |
composed. A bit slow. Yes. Too good, mate. | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
Next, he's known for saving the world, so Superman's latest | :05:16. | :05:17. | |
