Hi guys, Martin here with royal baby news on the way and the Baton going | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
round the world. Let's start in Ukraine where violent | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
protests are now spreading across the country. | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
Last night's angry clashes in the capital Kiev were put on hold today | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
as demonstrators waited for crisis talks with the president planned for | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
tonight. But now there's reports of protests in at least four more | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
cities. Some people there are angry at the Government for refusing to | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
join the European Union, something they think could make their lives | :00:29. | :00:29. | |
better. In other news: the Queen's new great | :00:30. | :00:41. | |
granddaughter's finally been named - six days after she was born. Mum | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
Zara Phillips and rugby star dad Mike Tindall announced this | :00:46. | :00:47. | |
afternoon that she'll be known as Mia Grace. Mia is 16th in line to | :00:48. | :00:55. | |
the British throne. Now you probably know by now that | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
today marks exactly six months until the opening ceremony of the | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. What you might not know is that for the | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
last few months the Queen's Baton has been travelling round the world | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
to the different countries invited to compete. Here's Nel with more on | :01:09. | :01:17. | |
its epic journey. Travelling through the 70 | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
Commonwealth nations, the Queen's that on runners cover several | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
kilometres in 280 days. The BBC has been following its incredible | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
journey from Buckingham Palace back in October. The point of this is to | :01:33. | :01:43. | |
build up to the Commonwealth Games. Sports stars and ordinary people | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
across the Commonwealth have been coming out in their thousands to | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
join the celebrations. Right now, the bat on is making its way across | :01:50. | :02:01. | |
the Seychelles. I was really honoured to do this. I am proud to | :02:02. | :02:11. | |
represent my country. The Commonwealth nations and | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
territories make up one third of the world's population, so the The | :02:14. | :02:19. | |

then up through the Americas and Europe before going back to the UK. | :02:27. | :02:37. | |
As the Baton adventure ends this summer. | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
Finally - if you Doctor Who fans have grown tired of waiting to see | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
the weeping angels move - here's some statues that are definitely not | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
static. Chinese artist Li Hongbo made these sculptures from thousands | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
of sheets of paper. They appear firm at first but transform into all | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
kinds of weird and wonderful shapes. That's all from me, Newsround's back | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
in the morning. | :02:57. | :03:00. |
