Next up, imagine knowing all the answers to a test

:02:44.:02:45.

Well that's what happened to a group of primary school kids in England.

:02:46.:02:51.

A SATs spelling test which was going to be given to

:02:52.:02:53.

half a million seven-year-olds was accidentally published online.

:02:54.:02:57.

A teacher at one school taking part in an official trial of the test

:02:58.:03:01.

noticed that all the kids seemed to know which words were coming next.

:03:02.:03:09.

The Government is investigating what happened.

:03:10.:03:11.

In other news, Liverpool thrashed Everton 4-0 last night

:03:12.:03:13.

The opening goal came from Divock Origi.

:03:14.:03:16.

a nasty challenge from Everton's Ramiro Funes Mori later on

:03:17.:03:21.

meant he had to be taken off on a stretcher

We know loads of you love your footy,

:03:44.:03:48.

but basketball is one of the most popular sports for kids

:03:49.:03:51.

Now children in three cities in England can play

:03:52.:03:54.

in their own junior NBA basketball leagues for schools.

:03:55.:03:58.

Martin's been finding out why the sport is becoming

:03:59.:04:00.

I love basketball, so I have come to this National Basketball

:04:01.:04:07.

Performance Centre in Manchester to see what the kids are up to.

:04:08.:04:13.

These guys are playing in the finals of the junior NBA

:04:14.:04:16.

Basketball England League, which started two years ago.

:04:17.:04:20.

120 schools take part and these guys love it.

:04:21.:04:24.

It is normally football at our age, but we have been doing basketball

:04:25.:04:29.

so I'm going to carry on doing basketball.

:04:30.:04:32.

It is not like where only one person has the ball,

:04:33.:04:35.

because if you have the ball, you are going to get tackled easily

:04:36.:04:40.

so you have to keep passing it around and it is a team effort.

:04:41.:04:44.

Helping the teams is a former NBA star,

:04:45.:04:46.

of the biggest teams in the US, including the LA Lakers

:04:47.:04:51.

and he is keen to spread the word about his favourite sport.

:04:52.:04:57.

Just like people don't play football in the US,

:04:58.:05:02.

people don't play basketball here in the UK

:05:03.:05:06.

and it is something we are trying to change.

:05:07.:05:08.

You shouldn't go into the game if you are dreaming

:05:09.:05:11.

When I was having young, it was having fun with the guys my age.

:05:12.:05:21.

I think basketball is a great game, a great game with a lot of dynamics

:05:22.:05:24.

One thing organisers hope to change is getting

:05:25.:05:27.

You should try it, it is a really good sport and really fun

:05:28.:05:32.

and if you get some of your friends to go down to just a net,

:05:33.:05:35.

then you can play like matches with each other.

:05:36.:05:40.

And head online to check out Martin take on Vladimir in a special
