Hi, I'm Ayshah and

Buddy the dog and the man
who rescued him from a hurricane... | 0:00:07 | 0:00:11 | |

And the astronauts enjoying a nice
slice of pizza in space. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:24 | |
A year ago, eleven-year-old Raghba
had never even played Squash. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
But now she's dreaming of playing
for her country - Syria. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:37 | |
Whitney's got this. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
She trains almost everyday,
focusing on her game and working | 0:00:40 | 0:00:45 | |
to be quicker on her feet. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
But five years ago, life was very
different for Raghba and her family. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
When they were forced
to leave their home town of Homs | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
because of the war in Syria. | 0:00:53 | 0:01:02 | |
They moved across the border
to Jordan, where they first | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
lived in a refugee camp. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:06 | |
It was when the family moved
to the outskirts of the city that | 0:01:06 | 0:01:12 | |
Raghba and her sisters got
the chance to try squash. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
She now plays in a team of four
girls and it's not just | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
all about the sport either. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:20 | |
We have training five times a week,
learning to play both squash | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
and English, to help them become
competitive squash players, | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
so they can compete in tournaments,
both here in Jordan | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
and around the world. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:30 | |
And we also want them
to achieve academic status, | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
so they can enrol in schools. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:33 | |
Squash isn't an overly
popular sport in Syria, | 0:01:33 | 0:01:37 | |
although lots of people play it
in other countries | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
in the Middle East. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:41 | |
But now Raghba and her team-mates
are hoping to one day go back | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
to Syria and share their love
of the sport. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:49 | |
TRANSLATION: It's been six months
since I played squash | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
and I want to play around the world
and go back to Syria | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
and become a coach. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
I want to take part in Arab
and foreign tournaments. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:05 | |
TRANSLATION: I like sport
and especially squash | 0:02:06 | 0:02:08 | |
because when I grow up
I want to travel and compete | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
in tournaments around the world
and make Syria and my family proud. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
Best of luck, girls! | 0:02:14 | 0:02:15 | |
I hope you smash it. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:21 | |
Now to cricket, and the Ashes. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:22 | |
It wasn't good news for England
yesterday but today they're | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
fighting back, on day four
of the second test. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
The teams play five tests over
the course of the competition. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
Australia won the first test,
and England need to do really well | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
over the next day and a half to win
the second. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:37 | |
Now to a lovely tale of a police
officer who rescued a dog | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
after Hurricane Irma. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:42 | |
He's now brought him back to the UK
from the British Virgin Islands. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:51 | |
Meet Buddy, the lucky labrador
cross, who is now living in the UK. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
Sit. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:55 | |
Good boy. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:56 | |
Buddy is a stray. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:03 | |
He won the heart of a police
officer called John Harvey. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
John was sent from Suffolk Police
to the British Virgin Islands | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
to help people after the devastation
of Hurricane Irma. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
He put his paws around my thigh
and just wouldn't let me go, really. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
I was trying to leave
and he was walking with me | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
on his back legs and I just thought,
you know, I'd like to | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
bring him home if I can. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
And give him a chance
of a better life, really. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
Buddy spent 21 days in Washington,
DC in the US, where vets checked | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
that he was healthy and fit,
before he was allowed | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
to travel on to the UK. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
It looks fantastic,
really good to see him, | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
he was excited, I was excited. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
And it was kind of the start
of the next chapter. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:42 | |
This hand, ready for new adventures
together. But it can all get a bit | 0:03:42 | 0:03:47 | |
exhausting... LSM! | 0:03:47 | 0:03:53 | |
Imagine owning somewhere
as fancy as this! | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
But without having to spend loads
and loads of money to buy it! | 0:03:55 | 0:03:59 | |
Thousands of people across the world
joined together to buy this | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
thirteenth century French castle. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:03 | |
It cost 500,000 euros to buy,
but some people only paid around | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
£45 for a share. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:11 | |
They're now planning to fix it up
and restore it to it's former glory. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:17 | |
We've put humans on the moon,
sent a rover to Mars and now we've | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
sent pizza to space. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:21 | |
Astronauts on the International
Space Station had their | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
very own pizza party. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
The toppings - pepperoni,
tomato sauce, cheese | 0:04:28 | 0:04:32 | |
and olives, were all sent up
on a special supply ship. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
Commander Randy Bresnik said
the pizzas were "flying saucers | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
of the edible kind". | 0:04:37 | 0:04:38 | |
Well that's just one
of the best quotes ever! | 0:04:38 | 0:04:43 | |
Come back after The Zoo to find
out why this beautiful | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
rainbow is record breaking. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:52 | |
Go online for some skiing Santanas
and take a lot at the supermoon | 0:04:52 | 0:04:57 | |
pictures. Goodbye. | 0:04:57 | 0:05:01 |
