Good morning, Ricky here with your Bank Holiday headlines. Coming up on | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
Newsround: flood defences repaired across the country and happy | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
birthday to the Queen. This is Newsround! | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
But first, more than 100,000 homes in the South of England have been | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
protected from future flooding. The Environment Agency who look after | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
flooding and pollution in England say they have repaired 350 flood | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
defences after those winter floods battered parts of the country. In | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
some areas sea defences were completely washed away. There's | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
still a lot of work to be done, more than 650 defences are still in need | :00:39. | :00:53. | |
of repair. Next, did you know music didn't | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
always come in digital form? Well, it's been ten years since it became | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
possible to download a song and Radio 1 are celebrating by counting | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
down the top 100 tunes. Labelled the biggest revolution in | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
the history of the music industry, DJs Fearne Cotton, Scott Mills and | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
Jameela Jamil will present The Official All-Time Download Top 100 | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
today from 12.00pm. Next, the Queen celebrates her 88th | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
birthday today and the occasion's being marked with a new portrait. | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
This black and white image was taken at Buckingham Palace in March by | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
British photographer David Bailey. The Queen has two birthdays. Her | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
actual one today, and her official one in June. The Palace says the | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
Queen will be spending her birthday at Windsor Castle. | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
Next, you might think street dance and ballet are as different as night | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
and day but they actually have more in common than you might think. | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
Former Britain's Got Talent winners Diversity are backing efforts to get | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
more boys into ballet and there's a very good reason why... Jenny put on | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
her pumps to join them and find out. You will probably recognise these | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
guys from Britain's Got Talent or some films. Diversity are known for | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
their energetic routines and their crazy flips and spins but you are | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
probably wondering what they have in common with ballet. Ballet is | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
extremely important depending on what kind of dancer you want to be. | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
If you want to go into the dance industry or musical theatre or jazz | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
and contemporary, you have to do have a ballet background. It is | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
imperative. It is the foundation of all of those styles. Being a ballet | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
dancer has loads of politics that we can use. Flexibility, mobility, | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
discipline. In terms of the physicality gives you, it is one of | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
the most amazing things you can pursue, I think. This dance group in | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
Manchester have made ballet a compulsory part of all of their | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
classes. I think ballet is really good because it helps me with my | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
street dance, my main dance that I do, especially in street because it | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
gets stronger because it makes you neat and tidy and stuff. When I | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
started I did not ready want to do it but now it has made my street | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
stronger. If you do ballet you find it much easier because you are | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
flexible. I am not going to lie, I thought you would never catch me in | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
a leotard and a tutu but since I have been doing yet it has made me | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
feel stronger and realise how important it is to do ballet. They | :03:18. | :03:24. | |
are sold, but convincing more boys that ballet is for them might take a | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
little while. These guys are the minority. 11,000 kids took GCSE | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
dance last year but only around 700 were boys. With classes like this, | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
all of that could be about to change. | :03:42. | :03:50. | |
Let's get you some football results and Liverpool now have one hand on | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
the Premier League trophy after beating Norwich 3-2, extending their | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
lead at the top of the table to five points. Elsewhere the battle for | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
Champions League places continues. Arsenal beat Hull 3-0 and David | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
Moyes returned to Everton as his Man Untied team lost 2-0. Moyes insists | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
his team will be in better shape next season. We are underway with | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
what we are doing and we will try to make sure we have the right things | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
in place for the next season and give ourselves a better chance of | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
completing nearer the top end of the league. Are these games important in | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
that process and getting into Europe? If you play for Manchester | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
United every game is important. Every team we play is a tough game. | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
We will do everything we can to win the remaining games. | :04:32. | :04:33. | |
F1 and Britain's Lewis Hamilton has won his third race in a row. The | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
Brit led the Chinese Grand Prix from the start and is now only four | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
points behind team mate Nico Rosberg in the championship. | :04:42. | :04:43. | |
The crew of the International Space Station took delivery of a special | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
Easter treat last night. A cargo ship full of supplies docked with | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
the Space Station on Sunday. The unmanned rocket which blasted off | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
from Florida over the week contained two tonnes of food, equipment and | :04:54. | :05:01. | |
science experiments. Newsround | :05:02. | :05:03. |
