Hi, guys, Martin here with your Thursday afternoon Newsround. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
First up, parts of the UK have been getting their first taste | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
of snow this winter. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:21 | |
There's been lots of wintry weather - snow, winds and rain have been | 0:00:21 | 0:00:25 | |
causing problems for roads, some airports and trains. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
In Scotland, some schools were closed. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
In many places trucks are putting grit on the roads and more snow | 0:00:31 | 0:00:31 | |
is expected overnight. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
And don't forget we want your weather updates. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
If the snow is falling where you are, send us your pics | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
or your own weather report by going online. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
Next up - a week before he becomes President, | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
Donald Trump is involved in an argument with the media | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
and with his own spy agency. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
It's all to do with secret files, spies and who is telling the truth. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
Sounds like a film - Ricky has more. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
Go ahead. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
President-elect... | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
She is asking the question. Don't be rude. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
President-elect... Can you give us a question... | 0:01:05 | 0:01:06 | |
Don't be rude. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
Donald Trump is making headlines before he starts as President. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
You are fake news. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:12 | |
NEWSREADER: As the President-elect faces off against the media. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
At his first meeting with the world's media since he won | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
the election last November, he refused to take a question | 0:01:18 | 0:01:22 | |
from an American news station that he said was broadcasting fake | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
stories about him. It was a pretty fiery moment. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
The media conference was supposed to be about what he'll do | 0:01:28 | 0:01:32 | |
with his businesses when he becomes President. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
But how did we end up here? | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
Well there's been lots of talk in the last few weeks | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
about Mr Trump's relationship with Russia - and that is | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
what caused the argument. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:47 | |
The US spy agencies were given some information about Mr Trump | 0:01:47 | 0:01:50 | |
and his team's dealings with Russia before and during the election. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:54 | |
The evidence was shown to Mr Trump and to President Obama. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
Some of it was very embarrassing. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
But no-one knows if it is true - and Mr Trump says it's fake. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
But the information ended up in some of the media. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
Mr Trump is very angry about that. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:10 | |
He thinks it was given to journalists by the US spies | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
trying to make things difficult for him. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:15 | |
I think it is a disgrace that information would be let out. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:19 | |
It is all fake news, it is phony stuff. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
The US security chiefs say they didn't give it to the media. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:26 | |
An argument like this is bad timing for Mr Trump. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:30 | |
On January 20th he has his inauguration and officially | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
becomes President - he wants everyone to be | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
talking about THAT instead. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:40 | |
Now from one kind of spy to another - if you're | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
missing Planet Earth Two, there's a brand-new | 0:02:43 | 0:02:46 | |
nature show called Spy In The Wild on TV tonight. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
Think furry robots and eye cameras and you've got a pretty | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
unique nature show. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched? | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
By a meerkat! | 0:02:59 | 0:03:04 | |
Meet Huw Williams. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
He's a cameraman on the brand-new show Spy In The Wild, | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
which uses animal robots to help spy on animals in the wild. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:15 | |
So, we wanted to find out a little bit more about these | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
rather hairy robots. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
Tell us who have we got here? | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
Here we have spy meerkat and spy peccary. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
There's 34 different robots, how did you make them? | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
It's kind of a group effort. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:33 | |
We have different engineers from around the world and some | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
people do the internal robotics, whilst others do the aesthetics | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
and design the skins and make them look the part. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
So these are the remote controls? Yes, they are. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:43 | |
That looks familiar. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:46 | |
This is almost like your average PlayStation remote control. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
But this controls the spy peccary here. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
Look at that! You are moving its head. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
That's quite realistic, the way it's moving its head. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
Yeah. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
That's the key, really, is to make these robotics look | 0:04:00 | 0:04:04 | |
and act like the real thing, just to try and convince | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
the animals out there and make them feel comfortable. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
Where would the camera be? The cameras are in fact in the eyes. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
All of our spy creatures are hiding a hidden camera there in the eye. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:16 | |
What was the most surprising thing you learned in this series? | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
There's one in particular, a spy meerkat here, the wild | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
meerkats actually handed over baby-sitting responsibilities | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
to our spy meerkat, and so they left these babies with him, | 0:04:27 | 0:04:31 | |
whilst they went off hunting for food, which was fantastic. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:35 | |
If you could create any robotic animal, which animal would it be? | 0:04:35 | 0:04:38 | |
I think it would be the cheetah. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:41 | |
Purely because I would just love to see a robot moving at that pace. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:45 | |
But I think that's going to be the next step for us. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
Newsround's back at 7.40am tomorrow. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:53 | |
Stay warm out there, guys! | 0:04:53 | 0:04:59 |
