Hello, welcome to Newsround. Sonali and Hayley here with all Friday's | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
news. Here's what's on the way today. | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
The most famous frock in the world - Kate's wedding dress goes on | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
display. And why scientists are excited | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
about this monkey picking its toes. But first to some breaking news | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
from Norway, where there's been a large explosion in the capital, | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
Oslo. It happened in the last couple of hours next to some | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
government buildings. These pictures were taken on someone's | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
mobile phone and show the damage caused. We know that at least two | :00:47. | :00:52. | |
people have died and eight people have been injured. The police there | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
say they think it was a bomb, but nobody's claimed responsibility for | :00:55. | :01:01. | |
it yet. We'll keep you updated on this later on the CBBC Channel. | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
Next, we're talking about the famine in Somalia. One in three | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
children there are malnourished - sick because they don't have enough | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
food. Many are likely to die if they don't get help. The situation | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
is made worse by fighting there that's gone on for years. The | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
country is so dangerous, it's difficult to get aid in and very | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
few journalists ever go there to find out what it's like. But one | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
BBC reporter, Will Ross, HAS just been to Somalia. Here's what he | :01:25. | :01:35. | |
:01:35. | :01:38. | ||
To move in Mogadishu you need men with guns. And plenty of them. The | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
Burundi and peace keepers got ready to drive me to the outskirts of | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
this battered capital. In heavily armoured vehicles, we passed | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
through the government controlled areas where despite the war, | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
businesses still booming. But the landscape is changing, almost every | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
open space we passed was filled with makeshift shelters, the homes | :02:02. | :02:12. | |
:02:12. | :02:13. | ||
for those fleeing the drought and Despite only being 400 metres from | :02:13. | :02:20. | |
the front line, thousands are still pouring into this camp. Setting up | :02:20. | :02:30. | |
:02:30. | :02:30. | ||
a with the few possessions they The real depth of this crisis only | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
becomes clear once we have reached the clinic. Mothers queue, | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
desperate to get help for their Sylvia Lee -- severely malnourished | :02:38. | :02:46. | |
children. When Sophia had absolutely no food or water in her | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
village in the south, she caught a ride to Mogadishu on the back of | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
her lorry -- a lorry with her five children. They keep coming. In the | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
last nine days, this clinic alone has seen well over 1,000 severely | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
malnourished children. The aid workers are struggling to cope. The | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
hardest part will be getting food deep into the areas held by al- | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
Qaeda Link rebels. With war and now a famine spreading, this is a | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
daunting challenge. And the latest news from Somalia is | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
that the United Nations is going to fly planes over the country to get | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
food to people they haven't been able to reach before. Reports of | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
the famine can be upsetting - if you find anything in the news is | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
bothering you, there's advice on the Newsround website for how to | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
deal with it. Next to a heatwave that's spreading | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
over America and Canada right now. 22 people have died because of the | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
extreme temperatures which, because it's humid, feel up to 46 degrees. | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
Temporary fountains have been set up in city centres and policemen | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
have been stationed at some outdoor pools to deal with the crowds. It | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
should be cooler there by the weekend. | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
If you're not a fan of Royals or big frocks, look away now! Yep, you | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
may have thought the Royal Wedding was just one day of the year, but | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
almost three months later, interest in that big day is still going | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
strong. That's why over half a million people have already signed | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
up to have a look at Kate's dress when it goes on display at | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
Buckingham Palace from tomorrow. Can't wait? We've got the deets | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
right here. It was the moment it seemed the | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
whole country was waiting for - the first sight of the dress that | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
transformed plain old Kate Middleton into the Duchess of | :04:26. | :04:33. | |
Cambridge. And now you can take a close up gaze at the gorgeous gown. | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
It cost a quarter of a million pounds to make, but you get a lot | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
of dress for that. Made from material called satin gazar, don't | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
you know, it has 58 buttons from the collar to the waist and hand | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
stitched flowers cover the silk veil. Not enough for you? Well, | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
Kate's shoes are also on display. The size five-and-a-halfs were | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
covered by her dress on the day so now's your chance to have a proper | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
snoop. And remember this? This little number, a tiara, was lent to | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
the Duchess by the Queen. Now you can see just how sparkly 1,000 | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
diamonds really are. And last but not least, the wedding cake. Yep, | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
the actual wedding cake. The top three layers have been replaced | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
because two were saved and one was eaten, but the rest of the eight- | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
layer monster is on display. Which we think, let's be honest, is just | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
a little bit weird! And we're not done with the world | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
of fashion yet. Or royalty. Because some Newsround viewers have been | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
hanging out in a palace and doing a bit of fashion designing themselves. | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
It's all part of a big project to get kids to think about making | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
their own clothes. Here's press packer William. | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
My name is William and I am here to see my design come to life on the | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
catwalk. I got into contact with Kensington Palace to make a dress | :05:54. | :06:01. | |
or jackets. I decided to make a dress. We were given instructions | :06:01. | :06:08. | |
to include pearls, sequins, ribbons and feathers. I based it around the | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
environment and recycling. The colours are more earth than normal | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
royal dresses and the coin represents the Queen. I used a lot | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
of inspiration from Lady GaGa. The thing that inspired me about Lady | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
GaGa was how her mind works, it is so creative and so unique to | :06:29. | :06:39. | |
:06:39. | :06:41. | ||
The Duchess of Cornwall has seen my design in she said it was very | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
creative and she liked it. Today has been a great day, I chatted to | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
the Duchess of Cornwall and have seen my designs come alive on the | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
catwalk. What are you doing? Oh, I hate it | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
when you get dirt under your nails. You're like this monkey. This | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
mandrill has been filmed at Chester Zoo cleaning the dirt from its | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
toenails! It's not just a pedicure story, it's also a big discovery. | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
It's using a carved stick to do the cleaning and until now scientists | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
didn't think monkeys like madrills were clever enough to use tools! | :07:14. | :07:19. |
