:00:09. > :00:11.Good morning, I'm Jenny with all the top stories today.

:00:12. > :00:13.The dinosaur footprints found on the Isle of Skye.

:00:14. > :00:29.And could cat videos online make a purrfect film?

:00:30. > :00:38.Over 100 fossilised dinosaur footprints have been found

:00:39. > :00:41.on the Isle of Skye, off the west coast of Scotland.

:00:42. > :00:43.They are from the largest dinosaurs that ever lived,

:00:44. > :00:48.The sauropods lived at what was the biggest dinosaur site in Scotland.

:00:49. > :00:52.The BBC's Victoria Gill, went to the site for Newsround.

:00:53. > :01:00.Legend has it that Matic landscape on the Isle of Skye in Scotland was

:01:01. > :01:10.shaped by giants. This windswept Bay has been hiding evidence of some

:01:11. > :01:15.real beasts. Palaeontologists were looking for dinosaur bones. But they

:01:16. > :01:30.realised they had found something more significant. At the end of the

:01:31. > :01:35.day, as the light hit the surface at the right angle, it clicked that

:01:36. > :01:39.something was odd. We have seen this before. We realised that these were

:01:40. > :01:47.dinosaur footprints. Is this a footprints? It is. There is 1 here,

:01:48. > :01:56.then there are about 7 or 8 right here. The researchers stumbled

:01:57. > :02:05.across the biggest dinosaur site in Scotland. Tracks made in sand by the

:02:06. > :02:09.enormous sauropods. Sandy prints were eventually preserved as fossils

:02:10. > :02:15.in these rocks. We always want to find dinosaur

:02:16. > :02:18.bones, but sometimes people But in many ways footprints

:02:19. > :02:20.are more valuable. Records of dinosaurs moving

:02:21. > :02:22.around right here. So we can tell a lot about how

:02:23. > :02:31.big they were and how they moved. The team will continue to work here

:02:32. > :02:37.on what they call Scotland's Jurassic Island. Be fully expect

:02:38. > :02:45.these rocks to reveal more dinosaur secrets.

:02:46. > :02:48.Next, it is a really important day in Parliament today, as MPs decide

:02:49. > :02:51.if the UK should be involved in any future military action in Syria.

:02:52. > :02:55.The group called IS has plotted attacks all over the world,

:02:56. > :02:57.most recently in the French capital Paris.

:02:58. > :02:59.British warplanes were already bombing the group in Iraq,

:03:00. > :03:02.but David Cameron wants Britain to join France, Russia and America to

:03:03. > :03:05.start bombing them in the country next door, Syria, as well.

:03:06. > :03:07.But the Prime Minister wants to get permission from Parliament first.

:03:08. > :03:10.So politicians will spend the whole day debating this and then

:03:11. > :03:14.around 10pm at night, they will have a vote about whether or not to

:03:15. > :03:20.Now, the people who are in favour of bombing very specific areas

:03:21. > :03:23.of Syria say that we have to make life as difficult as possible

:03:24. > :03:26.for IS, so they don't carry out any more attacks.

:03:27. > :03:30.And also to help the people who live in the areas they control.

:03:31. > :03:32.But there are quite a few people who think it is

:03:33. > :03:38.a really bad idea, who think that this could make the situation worse

:03:39. > :03:41.or Britain won't really help, this might even make IS

:03:42. > :03:45.want to carry out even more violence.

:03:46. > :03:49.Whatever happens, it is going to be a very big day, very dramatic here

:03:50. > :03:52.at Parliament, a lot of people watching what the final vote is.

:03:53. > :03:55.And if politicians do vote to go ahead, then British planes could be

:03:56. > :03:59.And you can read more about what's happening in Syria,

:04:00. > :04:05.Now, could cats be the new stars of cinema?

:04:06. > :04:08.Videos of them are really popular online, and now people are asking

:04:09. > :04:11.if they could pull in big numbers at the cinema.

:04:12. > :04:16.Colin Paterson's finding out if it could be the purrfect film.

:04:17. > :04:24.# We are going to have a cat party, so bring your cat...

:04:25. > :04:26.Thousands in a field watching cat videos.

:04:27. > :04:30.It was nice to know that I'm not the only weirdo who sits on the

:04:31. > :04:34.In Minneapolis, there is now an annual

:04:35. > :04:40.You look around, there's all these good-natured

:04:41. > :04:49.people who are coming together to do something unbelievably ridiculous.

:04:50. > :04:52.And it could become common in Britain.

:04:53. > :05:06.There have already been dedicated events in both Deptford and Glasgow.

:05:07. > :05:08.Not everyone is convinced these antics really belong

:05:09. > :05:12.My reservations are about why people would come out for something that is

:05:13. > :05:17.Cat videos are really important and play a great role in cheering people

:05:18. > :05:19.up and making people laugh, and that's fantastic, but whether that

:05:20. > :05:22.translates to handing money over and paying for a ticket and watching it

:05:23. > :05:24.again in a cinema is a different matter.

:05:25. > :05:26.But with millions watching online every day

:05:27. > :05:29.and some internet cats already having set own agents, it could be

:05:30. > :05:32.the likes of Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp who will struggle for

:05:33. > :05:36.It's the second of December, so that means another piece of chocolate

:05:37. > :05:39.from your advent calendar. Newsround is making one too, and we want to

:05:40. > :05:40.find out about your Christmas traditions.

:05:41. > :05:47.Hello. My Christmas tradition is instead of going to the shop and

:05:48. > :05:55.buying a Christmas tree, we have on the garden which we dig up every

:05:56. > :06:00.year and decorate instead. Send in your videos to our website. We're

:06:01. > :06:02.back at 4:20 PM.
