:00:00. > :00:00.transfers. Make sure you join us tomorrow. We will show you what it

:00:00. > :00:12.is like to be a commentator. Good morning to you this Friday.

:00:13. > :00:16.Ricky here, from Newsround HQ, with loads of stories for you. Coming up:

:00:17. > :00:18.could we be back on Panda watch soon?

:00:19. > :00:22.Edinburgh's two giant pandas could be ready to mate once again.

:00:23. > :00:26.First: It connects together most of the south west of England. But, for

:00:27. > :00:29.the past two months, the railway line in Dawlish has looked more like

:00:30. > :00:32.a broken roller-coaster. After it was destroyed in January's winter

:00:33. > :00:35.storms, the people living in large parts of Cornwall and Devon have had

:00:36. > :00:39.to find other ways of getting around. But, today, the line

:00:40. > :00:49.reopens, and Ayshah is there for us. Ayshah, what's the mood like in the

:00:50. > :00:57.town? Two trains have come roaring past!

:00:58. > :01:02.It is back to business as usual. The town is excited, they have the

:01:03. > :01:09.bunting up. People have been with their mobile phones taking pictures

:01:10. > :01:13.of the trains going past. For 150 years, this rail line, which

:01:14. > :01:16.connects large parts of the south west, has survived whatever the sea

:01:17. > :01:20.has thrown at it. But this winter's storms proved too much. And, in

:01:21. > :01:23.February waves punched a huge hole in the Dawlish line, leaving the

:01:24. > :01:26.track suspended in mid-air like a broken roller-coaster. Since then,

:01:27. > :01:30.Network Rail has spent about ?55 million to repair it.

:01:31. > :01:41.It must have been a huge operation, to fix those tracks?

:01:42. > :01:45.Engineers have working around the clock, working 24 hours a day, for

:01:46. > :01:50.eight weeks. To locals, they've been known as the orange army, dressed in

:01:51. > :01:54.their florescent gear. But it was hugely important to get this fixed

:01:55. > :01:59.as quickly as possible. Having that line closed off was costing the

:02:00. > :02:03.country a lot of money. Having it closed is thought to have cost the

:02:04. > :02:07.country's economy ?2 million a day. But now, just as the busy time of

:02:08. > :02:10.the Easter holidays begin, the railway here and large parts of the

:02:11. > :02:14.south west are now open for business once again.

:02:15. > :02:17.She's the author who inspired CBBC's Tracy Beaker and the Dumping Ground.

:02:18. > :02:20.And, later this year, Jacqueline Wilson will release her 100th book.

:02:21. > :02:23.Tomorrow, an exhibition opens at the V Museum of Childhood to celebrate

:02:24. > :02:25.the former children's laureate. It features a recreation of

:02:26. > :02:29.Jacqueline's childhood bedroom. And she told the BBC how different life

:02:30. > :02:34.was like back when she was growing up.

:02:35. > :02:40.We didn't even have a television in our living room until I was about

:02:41. > :02:45.nine. No, children didn't have anything then. They had books and I

:02:46. > :02:50.loved my books. It is strange, sitting here, and seeing a bed very

:02:51. > :02:56.much like the one I had. The exact paintings I had on the wall. It is

:02:57. > :03:05.what everybody thinks about, returning home to your childhood.

:03:06. > :03:08.Tennis. And Andy Murray is in action later today, when Great Britain

:03:09. > :03:11.takes on Italy in the Davis Cup quarterfinals. The Scot spent most

:03:12. > :03:15.of yesterday in bed with a virus, but did manage to train for 50

:03:16. > :03:18.minutes last night. Team-mate James Ward is up against Fabio Fognini in

:03:19. > :03:20.the first match this morning. And the Italian crowd will be behind

:03:21. > :03:24.his opponent. Space news. And check out these

:03:25. > :03:27.pictures of a satellite that was launched yesterday as part of a

:03:28. > :03:30.European project to gather more images of Earth. The Sentinel-1A

:03:31. > :03:33.spacecraft is the first of a number of satellites being launched to

:03:34. > :03:37.gather more information about our planet. -- Saturn's icy moon, known

:03:38. > :03:39.as Enceladus, could be home to life, according to Nasa scientists.

:03:40. > :03:42.They've been looking at new data that's come back from the Cassini

:03:43. > :03:46.probe, shooting through the solar system, scouting for signs of life.

:03:47. > :03:49.It found evidence that suggests a huge volume of water underneath the

:03:50. > :03:53.ice on the moon, which supports the idea that the frozen world could be

:03:54. > :03:57.one of the most likely places in our solar system to support life.

:03:58. > :04:00.We could soon be back on panda watch. Edinburgh Zoo's two giant

:04:01. > :04:03.pandas could be ready to mate within the next week or two, according to

:04:04. > :04:07.their keepers. Tian Tian and Yang Guang arrived in Scotland last year,

:04:08. > 9:57:13on loan from China. And everyone got very excited at the possibility of

9:57:14 > 9:57:13baby pandas on the way. After a lot of waiting around,

9:57:14 > 9:57:13baby pandas on the way. After a lot nothing. Pandas are famous for not
