Hello, I'm Jenny, with your last Newsround this Sunday.

:00:00.:00:08.

You tell us your favourite films of the year.

:00:09.:00:12.

for the Air Race World Championships.

:00:14.:00:26.

First, good news for the hundreds of pilot whales that were stranded

:00:27.:00:29.

More than 200 of the animals have re-floated themselves

:00:30.:00:33.

Earlier, volunteers managed to re-float around 100 of them.

:00:34.:00:44.

But why did so many get stranded, and why is it so important

:00:45.:00:47.

:00:48.:00:52.

:00:53.:00:55.

individual becomes stranded, it sends out a distress signal,

:00:56.:00:57.

which means all the others want to come and help

:01:12.:01:14.

so being on the sand puts great strain on their organs.

:01:15.:01:17.
