Hi, Martin here with your last burst of Newsround this weekend.

0:00:040:00:07

Coming up: As the celebs hit the dancefloor this weekend, you tell us

0:00:070:00:11

your top Strictly stars.

0:00:110:00:14

And from scooters to superheroes - we count down

0:00:140:00:16

the strangest clips of the week.

0:00:160:00:20

First up, to make a sleep over a success you need somewhere to

0:00:240:00:25

sleep, your friends and...

0:00:270:00:28

a lion!

0:00:280:00:32

Well that's what thousands of brave Brownies put up with this weekend

0:00:320:00:35

when they slept over at Chester Zoo.

0:00:350:00:37

It was all part of a celebration to mark The Brownies' 100th birthday.

0:00:370:00:42

There were plenty of activities before bedtime

0:00:420:00:45

and Alice, Elizabeth and Rebecca sent us this video from the event.

0:00:450:00:48

I really like the Brownie story that some of the Brownies got to

0:00:480:00:57

have their voices in the story.

0:00:570:00:58

It was quite exciting.

0:00:580:01:01

I got to sleep quite well.

0:01:010:01:06

My favourite part was when we did the night-time walk.

0:01:060:01:09

It was really funny because I was scared and I was

0:01:090:01:12

cuddling up to my best friend.

0:01:120:01:12

There were sparkles, shimmying and plenty of fancy

0:01:150:01:17

footwork on Strictly this weekend.

0:01:170:01:21

In a bit, we'll get your thoughts on the top movers and shakers

0:01:210:01:25

but first let's have a quick recap of some of the highlights.

0:01:250:01:27

Sequins, feathers, and glitter balls at the ready.

0:01:290:01:33

Strictly kicked off with a bang and some pretty fancy moves on display.

0:01:330:01:39

Motorbikes and even the caterpillar.

0:01:390:01:43

Each contestant was keen to make a good impression with the judges.

0:01:430:01:47

Steve Backshall showed off in his first dance of the show.

0:01:470:01:51

His tango with dance partner Paula was a hit with the audience

0:01:510:01:55

and the judges quite liked it too.

0:01:550:01:57

It was very well done.

0:01:570:01:58

It was crisp and precise.

0:01:580:02:04

You must be happy with those comments.

0:02:040:02:06

Absolutely.

0:02:060:02:06

We'll take constructive criticism as we're just getting started

0:02:060:02:09

but more good stuff than bad, that's fantastic.

0:02:090:02:11

You can't really go wrong.

0:02:110:02:12

Everyone is staring at her dress and not my feet, which is a good thing!

0:02:120:02:26

Pixie Lott and Alison Hammond sparkled on the night but it was

0:02:260:02:36

Frankie Bridge's waltz that put her top spot on the leaderboard.

0:02:360:02:38

Scott Mills didn't do so well, this awkward performance failing to

0:02:380:02:41

impress the judges.

0:02:410:02:43

It's the kind of dance that would be better on the radio, I think.

0:02:430:02:46

But it was only the first thing that everyone had danced and no

0:02:460:02:50

one will be eliminated this week.

0:02:500:02:51

So there's all still to dance for in the race

0:02:510:02:54

for the glitter ball and the glory.

0:02:540:02:57

And you've let us know your favourites over

0:02:570:03:01

on the newsround website.

0:03:020:03:06

Next we're travelling 410 million miles away from here to Mars,

0:03:110:03:13

because this week space history was made after India successfully put

0:03:130:03:16

a satellite into orbit around the red planet.

0:03:160:03:22

It was a special occasion because it's the first time a country has

0:03:220:03:25

done it on their first attempt.

0:03:250:03:26

Hayley's got this one.

0:03:260:03:26

The final push from its main engine and India's Mangalyaan spacecraft

0:03:300:03:33

finally slipped into the red planet's orbit.

0:03:330:03:36

It's a journey that has taken ten months

0:03:360:03:40

but the success of the mission has catapulted the country into an elite

0:03:400:03:43

club of deep space explorers.

0:03:430:03:52

Only the US, Europe and Russia have previously sent missions to Mars

0:03:520:03:54

and India is the first country to succeed on its first attempt.

0:03:540:03:57

History has been created today.

0:03:570:03:59

We have reached out into the unknown and have achieved

0:03:590:04:01

the nearly-impossible.

0:04:010:04:10

Getting a spaceship to successfully orbit around Mars is no easy task.

0:04:100:04:16

More than half the world's previous attempts have failed.

0:04:160:04:21

They have also managed to make it one of the cheapest missions to Mars

0:04:210:04:24

ever.

0:04:240:04:25

At just ?45 million, the cost is less than the estimated budget

0:04:250:04:28

of the sci-fi blockbuster, Gravity.

0:04:280:04:29

We are feeling very proud to be Indian.

0:04:290:04:31

We are proud to be born in a country who can do anything.

0:04:310:04:34

I really want to become a scientist or an astronaut when I grow up.

0:04:340:04:39

And the orbiter has already made an unusual space buddy.

0:04:390:04:43

US Space Agency NASA's Curiosity Rover give his Indian friend

0:04:430:04:48

a traditional welcome to the planet.

0:04:480:04:52

The probe will now circle Mrs for at least six months,

0:04:580:05:04

-- Mars, taking pictures of the planet and studying its atmosphere.

0:05:040:05:06

Finally, every week on the Newsround website, we countdown the strangest

0:05:090:05:11

clips in the universe.

0:05:110:05:12

This week it was Jenny's turn and she's come up with some crackers.

0:05:120:05:13

These engineers from Japan help to get real fighter jet pilots off

0:05:140:05:18

the ground every day but they never get the chance to fly themselves.

0:05:180:05:22

So as a treat, they've been given the specially designed bikes to

0:05:220:05:25

help them feel part of the team.

0:05:250:05:26

Warren Harrison as an amateur angler and he caught this 91-pound

0:05:300:05:33

whopper at a lake in Hungary.

0:05:330:05:36

You might be mistaken for thinking there was just one

0:05:400:05:42

Batman but that definitely wasn't the case in Calgary in Canada.

0:05:420:05:47

542 caped crusaders met up to break the world record

0:05:470:05:50

for the largest gathering of people dressed as Batman.

0:05:500:05:55

That's all from me.

0:05:570:05:58

Newsround's back bright and early in the morning.

0:05:580:06:00

Goodbye!

0:06:000:06:01

'I'm Millie...'

0:06:020:06:03

Hiya! Welcome to my house.

0:06:030:06:04

'..and this WAS my family.'

0:06:040:06:06

What is this?

0:06:060:06:07

SHE SCREAMS

0:06:070:06:08

My parents split up nearly a year ago,

0:06:080:06:10

'so now things are a lot more complicated.'

0:06:100:06:13

Mum wants to know what you want for your birthday.
