:00:23. > :00:29.President we look at the others who have been caught out by lip

:00:29. > :00:35.synching. I am in Somerset where the clean up operation to save

:00:35. > :00:41.hundreds of sea birds is under way. First, to drama on England's south

:00:41. > :00:49.coast. Over 100 sea birds, mostly guillemots, have been found washed

:00:49. > :00:54.up on a number of beaches covered in a waxy, glue-like slime. Charity

:00:54. > :01:00.workers from the RSPCA are working hard to rescue those they had found

:01:00. > :01:06.alive. Several birds have died. There may be many more affected by

:01:06. > :01:12.the spillage. It is all happening on the south coast of England. Most

:01:12. > :01:22.of the birds were found at Chesil Beach in Dorset. Others were found

:01:22. > :01:25.

:01:25. > :01:31.as far away as the Isle of Wight and West Sussex. The a lot of birds

:01:31. > :01:37.had been taken to an RSPCA centre and Joe is there now. How is the

:01:37. > :01:42.clean-up operation going? This is the cleaning room and it is only

:01:42. > :01:49.one of a few in the country that can deal with this sort of thing.

:01:49. > :01:55.These are just two birds of about 100 that have been brought in over

:01:55. > :01:59.the last 24 hours. How is it going? It is going very well, so we are

:02:00. > :02:05.pleased with the cleaning process. We are breaking down the

:02:05. > :02:10.contaminant with margarine. Then we are cleaning that off. What would

:02:10. > :02:16.happen if we did not take them off the beach and clean the birds?

:02:16. > :02:20.if we did not do anything, they would die. Their feathers form a

:02:20. > :02:28.barrier between them and the environment. A lot of them could

:02:28. > :02:34.not swim or dive for fish to feed. You have been looking at about 200?

:02:34. > :02:42.Yes, we have got 200 at the moment, but we expect more to come in on a

:02:42. > :02:46.daily basis. Next, to one of the worst-kept secrets in showbiz, pop

:02:46. > :02:51.stars lip synching. Beyonce has admitted she did it at President

:02:51. > :03:00.Obama's inauguration, but she is not the first to get caught out.

:03:00. > :03:08.Ricky has been looking at what happens when things go wrong.

:03:08. > :03:15.Beyonce's first attempt at the US national anthem. And her second.

:03:15. > :03:20.Which one is a live rendition? She has confirmed the rumours. On the

:03:20. > :03:24.big day she decided to mime over the top of her pre- recorded track.

:03:24. > :03:30.I did not have time to rehearse with the orchestra, so I decided to

:03:30. > :03:37.sing along with my pre- recorded track, which is very common. She is

:03:37. > :03:42.right, most artists these days mime. Recreating the sound they have

:03:42. > :03:46.produced in the studio is difficult. Britney Spears has been accused of

:03:46. > :03:52.miming during most of her performances. Cheryl Cole could be

:03:52. > :03:56.heard whispering instead of singing last year. And Will Young has

:03:56. > :04:01.criticised the X Factor finalists for miming during their group's

:04:01. > :04:06.songs. They want to present a good show for their audience, so if they

:04:06. > :04:14.danced a lot, they would be out of breath. They are trying to create

:04:14. > :04:18.what has gone on in the studio. Some singers like Lady Gaga say

:04:18. > :04:23.they refused to mind because they do not want to short change their

:04:23. > :04:33.fans. But when the pressure is on, miming is the best option. You have
