Hi, I'm Ayshah with Friday's Newsround. | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
Track and field athletes from Russia will be banned from competing | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
Russia is one of the most successful countries | :00:18. | :00:25. | |
in Olympic history, having won hundreds | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
But they won't be adding to their medal tally this summer | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
in Rio - the country's track and field team aren't allowed | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
to compete in the Olympics because lots of them | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
They have been found guilty of doping. | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
That's when people use banned drugs to cheat and give themselves | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
The Russian Olympic Committee and 68 athletes argued against a decision | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
to ban them by the organisation that runs world athletics. | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
Things could get worse for all of Russia's sports men and women. | :00:57. | :01:05. | |
There are calls to ban all the country's teams | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
from the Games, as experts look into whether or not other athletes | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
The Canadian superstar Drake is heading towards his 15th week | :01:12. | :01:17. | |
While Drake might be celebrating, others in the music industry say | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
it's a sign that the charts are broken. | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
But Drake has been hogging the limelight for three months. | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
He's already spent 14 weeks at number one | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
and is set to draw level with a 1994 song by Wet, Wet, Wet | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
Although Drake's song has been on top for so long | :01:42. | :01:53. | |
he hasn't actually sold that many records, it's streaming that | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
I've come to Radio One to meet Chris Price, | :01:57. | :02:05. | |
whose the man in charge of what music goes on the station. | :02:06. | :02:14. | |
What has changed recently to make Drake stay longer than he would have | :02:15. | :02:22. | |
done? Until recently the chart only measured the number of people buying | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
a single, for example from a download store. Now the chart | :02:28. | :02:36. | |
include streams. So it is like someone following you home and | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
counting how many times you listen to a song in your bedroom. What does | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
that mean for radio one? There might come a point where we are ahead of | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
the charts and we might have to take Drake of the playlist. That is a | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
serious question we have to ask ourselves at the moment. Have you | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
ever seen anything like this? I don't think it has. If we took Drake | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
of the playlist while he was number one bout with new thing. | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
So will Drake be around for one more dance? | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
Sometimes you can have too much of a good thing. | :03:11. | :03:19. | |
Now to a show all about robots fighting each other. | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
Robot Wars sees viewer's homemade robots up against the show's | :03:23. | :03:24. | |
own house robots, like this one behind me. | :03:25. | :03:26. | |
The new series starts on Sunday so I went to speak to the show's | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
producer to find out what's in store. | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
Andrew, we're at the press launch of Robot Wars. | :03:34. | :03:35. | |
It felt like a secret that we have been holding for a long time. | :03:36. | :03:46. | |
Tell us about what it was before and what you have now. | :03:47. | :03:54. | |
Back in the day, you can imagine the size of a computer | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
or a TV ten years ago, they were massive and old. | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
Technology has changed so much, they are so much more | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
dangerous and faster and the weapons are better. | :04:05. | :04:14. | |
Who is the most fearsome house robot this time around? | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
She is nippy and has a fly wheel at the back, | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
she's probably got the most dangerous weapon in the arena. | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
Dead Metal is terrifying and has a front spinning blades, | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
which isn't actually that dangerous but makes a lot of sparks | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
and she has pincers, she grabs you with her pincers | :04:37. | :04:45. | |
and she pulls you forward and chops you in half. | :04:46. | :04:47. | |
Then Shunt has an axe that fires from one side to the other | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
That's it for now, I'll be back with more in half an hour. | :04:53. | :04:57. |
