Morning, guys, Naz here with all your stories

:00:11.:00:14.

First up, hospitals in England will have to start

:00:15.:00:17.

It's after doctors said they won't be coming in to work

:00:18.:00:22.

The strike will mean lots of appointments

:00:23.:00:27.

It's because of an argument between doctors and the Government

:00:28.:00:32.

about how much they get paid and how long they have to work.

:00:33.:00:36.

There's less than one week to go until the Paralympic Games

:00:37.:00:39.

One of the British stars going for gold is

:00:40.:00:44.

wheelchair tennis player Gordon Reid.

:00:45.:00:46.

He's hoping to add a Paralympic medal to the Wimbledon title

:00:47.:00:49.

The Paralympics is a different story.

:00:50.:00:59.

You represent your country, you are part of this big

:01:00.:01:01.

I always feel a bit more inspired, a bit more motivated,

:01:02.:01:06.

Hopefully I can get up on top of that podium for

:01:07.:01:13.

One of the things I love most about sports is that it

:01:14.:01:20.

translates really easily from somebody

:01:21.:01:23.

playing on their feet or somebody

:01:24.:01:25.

Playing the same court, the same sized net,

:01:26.:01:29.

The only difference is I get two bounces

:01:30.:01:33.

for to play with somebody on their feet.

:01:34.:01:37.

You can play with your family, you can play with your mates.

:01:38.:01:40.

It's kind of always been a dream of mine to play Wimbledon so to go

:01:41.:01:47.

there and have that opportunity after a few years of playing doubles

:01:48.:01:50.

Then obviously to be the first winner on home soil

:01:51.:01:55.

with the support and atmosphere that my friends and family made, I think

:01:56.:02:00.

it was heard all around the grounds, not just on our court.

:02:01.:02:04.

I've heard a few stories from some of the guys

:02:05.:02:06.

who were out for the Olympics about some

:02:07.:02:08.

of the conditions and the organisation

:02:09.:02:11.

so going in with low expectations and if it all

:02:12.:02:13.

runs smoothly it will be a nice surprise for me.

:02:14.:02:17.

There is always a bit of negative chat

:02:18.:02:19.

before any Games, the Olympics as well.

:02:20.:02:21.

OK, not everything ran perfectly but they still staged

:02:22.:02:23.

a pretty successful event, in my opinion.

:02:24.:02:29.

There were still moments made, some great performances,

:02:30.:02:31.

It is just trying to go out there and focus on

:02:32.:02:37.

myself as an athlete and my performance.

:02:38.:02:40.

There are probably six or seven players in the men's division

:02:41.:02:45.

My aim is to win two golds, singles and doubles.

:02:46.:02:49.

Gordon, if you win a gold medal will you cry?

:02:50.:02:53.

I was just about crying watching Andy Murray up there,

:02:54.:02:58.

Robot Wars reached its epic conclusion on Sunday night.

:02:59.:03:10.

40 robots entered the competition and after six weeks of battle,

:03:11.:03:13.

We went to find out what makes a winner.

:03:14.:03:19.

There's no perfect design, that's what makes it fun.

:03:20.:03:39.

But there are four important things to think about.

:03:40.:03:48.

We built Apollo a wedge flipper - it's big and powerful,

:03:49.:04:16.

Apollo is one of the biggest robots so that means we can keep control of

:04:17.:04:21.

the fights. No matter how big your weapons are,

:04:22.:04:26.

how strong your armour is, the most important thing is to have good

:04:27.:04:33.

tactics. They have to have a good driver and see what the best our

:04:34.:04:36.

robot can do against the other robots.

:04:37.:04:40.

There is a massive achievement for us to win and Apollo has done us

:04:41.:04:45.

proud. Newsround's back right
