Afternoon guys. I'm Ayshah and I've got your weekend news and sport.

:00:00.:00:11.

Including: We find out from Team GB's Sochi golden girl Lizzy Yarnold

:00:12.:00:15.

what it's like to hurtle down the ice at 80 miles an hour.

:00:16.:00:19.

We hear about Davina McCall's gruelling Sport Relief challenge.

:00:20.:00:20.

This is Newsround. First then, Team GB's camp in Sochi

:00:21.:00:30.

is still buzzing after Lizzy Yarnold produced a dominant display last

:00:31.:00:33.

night to win Britain's first gold medal of the Winter Olympics. She

:00:34.:00:37.

aced the women's skeleton, taking the crown from fellow Brit Amy

:00:38.:00:41.

Williams who won at the Vancouver Games in Canada four years ago. If

:00:42.:00:46.

you missed the drama, here's a quick reminder. Lizzy Yarnold is going for

:00:47.:00:54.

Olympic gold. Another track record. This competition has got off to a

:00:55.:01:06.

blistering start. Come on! So far, this is unbelievable. That is just

:01:07.:01:18.

outside the track record. This is her fastest start so far. We

:01:19.:01:21.

couldn't ask for anything more on the second day. Come on, Lizzy.

:01:22.:01:27.

Lizzy Yarnold goes for gold for Great Britain. Keep it together,

:01:28.:01:38.

keep calm. Lizzy Yarnold is the Olympic champion, oh, my goodness!

:01:39.:01:43.

So that's what becoming an Olympic champion looks like but how does it

:01:44.:01:48.

feel? Here's Lizzie earlier this morning. I leapt up from the sled

:01:49.:01:54.

desperate to see the time and I saw the number one so I knew I had won

:01:55.:01:58.

the race. The most amazing feeling. Relief, all the hard work was worth

:01:59.:02:03.

it. My first Olympics. I can't believe it. I had to run 20 metres

:02:04.:02:09.

and leap on to the sled as best I can. Going into the corners, I tried

:02:10.:02:15.

to relax and let the sled pick up as much speed. I am totally focused. I

:02:16.:02:27.

am thinking unbelievably fast. I can even smell things along the track,

:02:28.:02:30.

my senses are all so heightened. It is great fun.

:02:31.:02:34.

She'll pick up her gold medal at 4.30 this afternoon. Well after all

:02:35.:02:38.

that excitement there's plenty more drama from Sochi today. It was

:02:39.:02:41.

bitter disappointment in the speed skating for Team GB's Elise

:02:42.:02:44.

Christie, who after being disqualified from the final of the

:02:45.:02:47.

500m on Thursday, was again penalised in the heats of the 1500m

:02:48.:02:52.

this morning. She missed crossing the finish line by just one

:02:53.:02:56.

centimetre, but she has another shot at a medal in the thousand metres on

:02:57.:03:00.

Tuesday. But good news for Britain's women

:03:01.:03:03.

curlers as they fought back to beat South Korea this morning, giving

:03:04.:03:07.

them a great chance of making the semi-finals. They're equal third in

:03:08.:03:10.

the round-robin table and play Switzerland this afternoon. -- equal

:03:11.:03:18.

second. But Britain's men had a really close finish to their match

:03:19.:03:22.

with Canada, an hour or so ago. With the last stone of the match, GB

:03:23.:03:26.

tried for an outright win but missed it by centimetres, meaning they've

:03:27.:03:29.

still got a way to go to make the semi-finals.

:03:30.:03:31.

Don't forget there's plenty of good Sochi stuff on the website. We've

:03:32.:03:34.

updated our podium picture with Lizzy Yarnold in that number one

:03:35.:03:37.

spot, plus there's some fascinating Winter Olympics facts on there too.

:03:38.:03:41.

Emergency services are working hard to deal with the damage caused by

:03:42.:03:45.

more fierce storms last night. Huge waves,strong wind and heavy rain of

:03:46.:03:49.

up to 80 miles an hour, coupled with continuing flooding, caused havoc in

:03:50.:03:54.

the South of England. Two people have died and 32 were rescued in the

:03:55.:03:58.

latest bout of extreme weather. There are 16 severe flood warnings,

:03:59.:04:02.

meaning danger to life, in place across southern England. More than a

:04:03.:04:09.

140,000 homes are without power. Next up. Well, she did it. After an

:04:10.:04:13.

epic challenge which saw her running, cycling and swimming 500

:04:14.:04:16.

miles from Edinburgh to London, the TV presenter Davina McCall finished

:04:17.:04:19.

her Sport Relief challenge late yesterday. She had to deal with very

:04:20.:04:24.

difficult weather conditions including gale force winds and heavy

:04:25.:04:30.

rain. To have enough energy to complete the challenge she had to

:04:31.:04:33.

eat about 8000 calories a day. Davina's raised over ?750,000 for

:04:34.:04:42.

charity. They just got so cold. It was like somebody was sitting on my

:04:43.:04:46.

chest and I could not breathe. I wanted to stop but I am glad he

:04:47.:04:54.

helped me to push through. I am so happy and relieved and full of love

:04:55.:05:01.

for everyone who has helped me on my way.

:05:02.:05:04.

Footie now, and it's the fifth round of the FA Cup with four matches

:05:05.:05:06.

today. Sunderland against Southampton is in the second half

:05:07.:05:11.

right now but it's goalless so far. Later, could Wigan's James McLean be

:05:12.:05:15.

the hero again as his side take on Cardiff? That's at three o'clock.

:05:16.:05:18.

But Sheffield Wednesday against Charlton is postponed because of a

:05:19.:05:22.

waterlogged pitch. Later this evening at 5.15, it's the big one:

:05:23.:05:26.

Chelsea against Man City at Eastlands for the second time this

:05:27.:05:30.

month. Jose Mourinho says his side are heading to Manchester looking

:05:31.:05:38.

for the win. We do not want a replay. We are not going there to

:05:39.:05:47.

try and get a draw and bring the game to Stamford Bridge. It is a

:05:48.:05:53.

football game. We want to play and we want to try to win. We are

:05:54.:05:58.

confident. I believe they are confident as well. Are they worried?

:05:59.:06:03.

I believe so. OK, that's all we've got time for on

:06:04.:06:07.

Newsround today. But up next on CBBC there's another chance to catch our

:06:08.:06:10.

special programme from earlier this week. The use of mobile phones and

:06:11.:06:13.

the internet is changing how young people are being bullied. In our

:06:14.:06:16.

look at the world of cyber-bullying, Ricky speaks to young victims and

:06:17.:06:20.

their experiences and how they managed to overcome the bullies.

:06:21.:06:22.

It's up next, don't miss it. Unfortunately, bullying

:06:23.:06:31.

at school is nothing new, but what is changing is the way

:06:32.:06:35.

bullies are using mobile phones and the internet to

:06:36.:06:39.

target their victims, often without anyone

:06:40.:06:41.

knowing it's them. I wasn't sure if it was someone's

:06:42.:06:47.

idea of a sick joke.
