It's 8:17 this Friday morning and you're watching

:00:00.:00:00.

Coming up: How do you turn back the clock at Big Ben?

:00:00.:00:16.

And how you get rid of waste on the International Space Station!

:00:17.:00:30.

First, world leaders have agreed to protect a massive area

:00:31.:00:33.

of water off Antarctica - home to the South Pole.

:00:34.:00:37.

The Ross Sea has penguins, whales and seals, and is about six times

:00:38.:00:40.

This new deal means that there can't be any commercial fishing

:00:41.:00:49.

there for the next 35 years, and makes it the largest marine

:00:50.:00:52.

It's hoped it'll help to protect wildlife that live there,

:00:53.:00:56.

Yes, it's about the environment but most of all it is about justice,

:00:57.:01:03.

and ensuring that we look after the environment

:01:04.:01:05.

There seems to be something fundamentally wrong about us

:01:06.:01:10.

destroying the ocean so our children and grandchildren

:01:11.:01:12.

This is what was supposed to happen when the Schiaparelli lander

:01:13.:01:21.

reached Mars last week, but things didn't go to plan.

:01:22.:01:23.

The parachute and rockets designed to slow it down didn't work

:01:24.:01:26.

Now new pictures are giving scientists more clues

:01:27.:01:29.

These images show the remains of the capsule in a crater,

:01:30.:01:34.

surrounded by a dark patch, which is thought to be

:01:35.:01:36.

Well, one mission that did go to plan is Tim Peake's six-month

:01:37.:01:42.

stay on the International Space Station.

:01:43.:01:46.

The British astronaut has been touring the country meeting children

:01:47.:01:48.

since coming back to Earth and he also caught up

:01:49.:01:50.

with Jenny to answer some of your burning questions.

:01:51.:01:55.

Oliver is seven and wants to know what you like to eat in space

:01:56.:01:59.

Eating in space is strange because there is no convection

:02:00.:02:07.

Some of the food tastes bland, so you would spice it up.

:02:08.:02:12.

On Earth, why is the sky blue but in space it is black?

:02:13.:02:20.

We always draw the sun as yellow, because it appears yellow to us

:02:21.:02:23.

It is the whitest light you will ever see.

:02:24.:02:33.

When the sun's light comes into our atmosphere it scatters

:02:34.:02:36.

all around and it is the scattering of the light,

:02:37.:02:38.

that is what makes it appear blue, and up in space it is just black

:02:39.:02:42.

because there is no atmosphere so the sun is not passing

:02:43.:02:44.

How did you get rid of the waste from the ship?

:02:45.:02:58.

We don't want to resupply with anything, so we recycle

:02:59.:03:01.

So today's coffee was yesterday's pee.

:03:02.:03:04.

For the stuff that we can't recycle, that gets put into a blue garbage

:03:05.:03:10.

bag you saw and it burns up in the atmosphere, so when you look

:03:11.:03:14.

The clocks go back an hour this Sunday morning at 2am meaning, yes,

:03:15.:03:24.

But while changing any clocks around your house might be a pretty

:03:25.:03:30.

easy and simple job, it's a huge task for the team

:03:31.:03:33.

Here's BBC reporter Tim Muffett to explain how they do it.

:03:34.:03:39.

The clocks go back this weekend, but spare a thought for the staff at the

:03:40.:03:47.

palaces of Westminster where the House of Commons and House of Lords.

:03:48.:03:52.

2000 clocks need turning back, but this is the most famous. I'm in the

:03:53.:03:56.

control room of the building you probably know as Big Ben, but that

:03:57.:04:00.

is actually the name of the bell at the top of the Elizabeth Tower. This

:04:01.:04:04.

the Victorian machinery that works the clock. You are part of the team

:04:05.:04:10.

that will stop the clock over the weekend. How will it work? On

:04:11.:04:15.

Saturday night, we will come here and stop the ticking of the clock.

:04:16.:04:19.

There will be no bells or quarter bells, nothing. We switch the lights

:04:20.:04:23.

of outside so no one knows what is going on and then we will move the

:04:24.:04:26.

hands quickly to midnight, and what would be the new midnight, then we

:04:27.:04:31.

will turn the hands back on with no bells and we will keep on going

:04:32.:04:35.

round until we have the time right. And at two a.m., the official time

:04:36.:04:39.

change, we will switch the lights back on and we will be back in

:04:40.:04:43.

Greenwich meantime. Thank you so much. Whatever you do, don't forget

:04:44.:04:48.

to turn your clocks and watches back, although smartphones sometimes

:04:49.:04:52.

do it themselves, there is still a real art to this, as Ian has been

:04:53.:04:54.

telling us. Now this Sumatran orangutan may not

:04:55.:04:55.

be as old as Big Ben, but she's been named as the oldest

:04:56.:04:58.

one on the planet! Puan lives in Perth Zoo

:04:59.:05:00.

in Australia, where keepers studied loads of records to work out that

:05:01.:05:03.

she's 60 years old. Primates like her usually

:05:04.:05:06.

live to the age of 50, but the zoo says she's

:05:07.:05:08.

doing well for her age. She's in very good condition

:05:09.:05:12.

and she looks incredible She has got a bit cranky in her

:05:13.:05:14.

old age, that might be the word, but everyone is entitled

:05:15.:05:19.

to have a bad day. She definitely deserves a lot

:05:20.:05:21.

of respect and she gets If her food doesn't come quickly

:05:22.:05:23.

enough she stamps her feet and gives us this little war dance,

:05:24.:05:31.

but she's easy to work with. at Chester Zoo featuring loads

:05:32.:05:48.

of pumpkins, of course. Bears, black panthers and meerkats

:05:49.:05:51.

have all been joining in the spooky spirit,

:05:52.:05:53.

ahead of the main day on Monday. And we want your pumpkin pics -
