Hi, I'm Martin, and this is Newsround.

:00:08.:00:09.

First up and a film crew and some tourists have been injured

:00:10.:00:12.

after a volcano on the Italian island of Sicily erupted.

:00:13.:00:20.

A hippo says hello to the public for the first time and the golfers say

:00:21.:00:24.

see you later to a Gator. A BBC reporter who was there has

:00:25.:00:40.

described how they had to run away from the edge of Mount Etna

:00:41.:00:43.

after an explosion threw rocks, Some people have been

:00:44.:00:46.

hurt but luckily there I was with a BBC crew filming

:00:47.:00:52.

Alawites flow from a recent spate of volcanic activity. Tourists come to

:00:53.:00:56.

see it as well. The larva moves so slowly it is usually considered

:00:57.:01:01.

safe. The lover mixed with some slow caused it to cause a small explosion

:01:02.:01:14.

and then a larger one. It pelted us with rocks and boulders and steam.

:01:15.:01:23.

Everyone ran, trying to reach the snowmobile. We made it back down the

:01:24.:01:30.

mountain and what happened is only just starting to sink in. This hole

:01:31.:01:36.

was made by one of the incredibly hot pieces of volcanic rock that

:01:37.:01:40.

rained down upon us. We had a very narrow escape. Rebecca and the

:01:41.:01:47.

camera crew got caught up in what we call a rootless eruption,

:01:48.:01:51.

essentially lava flows are coming over water and in this case no and

:01:52.:01:55.

it is actually flashing that snow into steam. It really dramatically

:01:56.:02:02.

expands and actually causes an eruption of the lava flow itself. It

:02:03.:02:06.

doesn't actually have event beneath it but it is being driven by the ice

:02:07.:02:10.

and the water being flashed to steam. Scientists now tracks how the

:02:11.:02:17.

eruption will progress. Our close call only shows how dangerous these

:02:18.:02:23.

forces of nature can be. It is the final weekend of the six

:02:24.:02:28.

Nations. England may have won the championship but there is still

:02:29.:02:40.

plenty to play for. Six teams came to the tournament with high hopes,

:02:41.:02:45.

but then one by one they saw their chances of victory slip away. All

:02:46.:02:51.

except reigning champions, England. Over the last six weeks we have seen

:02:52.:02:57.

some amazing tries. And some shocking fails. But with four teams

:02:58.:03:05.

all looking to tie up second place, and Italy still searching for their

:03:06.:03:10.

first win, expect Saturday's games to be as ferocious as ever. Unbeaten

:03:11.:03:14.

England visit Ireland in the day 's final match. 19th straight victory

:03:15.:03:20.

for Eddie Jones 's men will not only give them a second grand slam in two

:03:21.:03:26.

years but also the record for the most winds in a row for an

:03:27.:03:30.

international team ever. The record is currently held by none other than

:03:31.:03:35.

the mighty all Blacks. Ireland will be doing everything in their power

:03:36.:03:38.

to stop the fierce rivals from making history, and who were the

:03:39.:03:43.

team that brought the New Zealand winning streak to an end? England's

:03:44.:03:46.

opponents on Saturday. Ireland. Cute baby animals on

:03:47.:03:54.

Newsnight, you say. Meet this little one who doesn't have a name yet. She

:03:55.:03:58.

made her first appearance with her mum at a zoo in Australia. She is a

:03:59.:04:02.

pygmy hippo and there are less than 3000 left in the wild. The zoo is

:04:03.:04:08.

running a competition to get a name. What do you do when you come

:04:09.:04:11.

face-to-face with an alligator? You might scream and run away but when

:04:12.:04:17.

it appears on a golf course in America the golfers simply shoved

:04:18.:04:22.

him back into the water. He said, see you later, alligator, and

:04:23.:04:28.

carried on playing. This police officer has some serious

:04:29.:04:32.

moves. He dances up a storm daily, trying to copy Michael Jackson while

:04:33.:04:37.

directing traffic on the busy streets of Nigeria. Look at him go!

:04:38.:04:43.

It is brilliant. If that isn't enough news for you today, go online

:04:44.:04:48.

to loads of stories including the frogs are glow-in-the-dark. That

:04:49.:04:53.

looks amazing. Happy sympatric stay to everyone celebrating today. Join

:04:54.:04:56.

us just before 9am tomorrow morning. Goodbye.
