Good morning! | 0:00:03 | 0:00:04 | |
I'm Jenny, live, with your Friday Newsround. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
Coming up in the next few minutes... | 0:00:06 | 0:00:09 | |
Your thoughts on two new saturday night singing shows. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:13 | |
What did Stonehenge sound like? | 0:00:13 | 0:00:14 | |
And the mysterious eggs washed up on a German beach. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:19 | |
First up, the last orca show will take place | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
at SeaWorld, in San Diego, in America this weekend. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:32 | |
The company has faced a lot of criticism over the last few years | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
about the treatment and welfare of its killer whales. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:39 | |
Martin has been finding out more. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
Graceful, powerful and intelligent, we're talking about orcas, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:47 | |
or killer whales as they're better known. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
For many years these whales have performed in shows across America | 0:00:50 | 0:00:53 | |
at amusement parks run by the company SeaWorld. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
But, not anymore. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:58 | |
In 2015 Californian authorities banned SeaWorld from breeding | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
Orcas in captivity. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:05 | |
And after a lot of pressure from celebrities and animal rights | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
groups, in 2016 SeaWorld announced that they were putting an end | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
to killer whale performance shows in their parks. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:15 | |
This weekend marks the final show at one of those parks | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
in San Diego in California. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:22 | |
SeaWorld currently has killer whale shows at two other parks in America, | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
in Texas and Florida, but they will be gradually phased out too. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:31 | |
Instead of performing tricks, the whales will now be used to help | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
teach people more about orca life. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
Animal rights groups have praised SeaWorld for making positive steps | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
in the right direction, but some still think more can be | 0:01:39 | 0:01:43 | |
done to help protect the animals' welfare. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
Some are suggesting the whales should be moved to sanctuaries | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
by the sea where they can live in an environment closer to that | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
of their natural homes in the wild. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:56 | |
The fight for killer whale rights seems set | 0:01:56 | 0:01:58 | |
to continue into the future, but things are definitely changing | 0:01:58 | 0:02:00 | |
for these underwater giants. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:06 | |
How's this for an epic mission? | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
William Lindesay, from England, has filmed the entire Great Wall | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
of China from the air, by drone - all 5,500 miles of it. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
He's been obsessed with the wonder of the world, since seeing it | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
in a school atlas as a child. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:22 | |
His travels have taken him all over north China and even to Mongolia. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:30 | |
And from the sight of one giant monument to the sound of another. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
The noises of Stonehenge from 3000 years ago has been recreated | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
in digital form using technology made for computer games | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
and virtual reality. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:38 | |
Visitors to the famous site in the south west of England will be | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
able to experience the sounds from the time the stone circle | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
was intact, which are thought to have been an important part | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
of Stonehenge when it was built. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:55 | |
If you've been missing The X Factor and Strictly Come Dancing, | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
fear not because this weekend sees the launch of two Saturday night | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
singing contests - new show Let It Shine | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
and ITV's version of The Voice. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
But with all these talent shows hitting our screens, | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
we wanted to know if you are still interested in watching. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:12 | |
Christmas is over, January is here and that sees the start | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
of a new BBC One singing show - but not The Voice. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:20 | |
After five years on the channel that's moved | 0:03:20 | 0:03:22 | |
to a new home on rival ITV. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:24 | |
The BBC has gone for its own big new music programme, | 0:03:24 | 0:03:26 | |
with Gary Barlow leading the search | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
for the cast of a Take That musical, in Let It Shine. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:35 | |
Both shows will go head-to-head in a battle to dominate | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
Saturday night telly. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:40 | |
But reality singing shows have had a bit of a difficult time recently. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:44 | |
December's X Factor final was the least watched | 0:03:44 | 0:03:45 | |
in the show's history. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
And last year's The Voice saw viewers vanishing. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
So, what do you guys think about the new shows about to start? | 0:03:51 | 0:03:56 | |
I would probably prefer the new show Let It Shine because I think it's | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
time for a new show. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
Some of these shows are getting quite repetitive. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
You see the same things. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
This new show is a new concept so it will be a lot better. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
It's happened with a lot of shows, like Strictly, I used to love, | 0:04:10 | 0:04:14 | |
Britain's Got Talent, I used to love. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:15 | |
Now, maybe it's because I'm getting older, and getting bored and I end | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
up just going off and watching something else on my phone. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:25 | |
I'm not too bothered about the TV shows but I would rather watch | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
movies like Harry Potter. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:33 | |
I think I might watch Let It Shine because I've already watched | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
The Voice so we know the theme of what it will be about. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:40 | |
The Voice, it's been on for a while, sometimes it can get repetitive. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
I think both of them will be great because I love the spinning chairs | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
on The Voice. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
I like that new show will be showing something different | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
than what we've already got. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:55 | |
I think The Voice is a good show because they don't judge | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
people on their looks, they judge people on how they sing. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:03 | |
I think I would prefer to watch the new show, Let It Shine, | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
because it is something different and I might not get bored | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
by something I might have seen a few years ago. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
I'm going to watch both of them because they both look good. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:17 | |
An injured baby elephant in Thailand has learnt to walk | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
again, with the help of a special swimming pool. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
The 5-month-old, called Clear Sky, is the first elephant to get this | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
kind of water therapy, after she lost her foot in a trap. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:35 | |
Despite most elephants loving the water, she was a little nervous. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
But her vet says she's already showing signs of improvement. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
A flood of plastic eggs containing tiny toys has been swept ashore | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
the German island of Langeoog after a fierce storm. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
The eggs seem to have come from a container | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
lost by a cargo ship. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:48 | |
Local children have been helping collect the unexpected | 0:05:48 | 0:05:50 | |
treasure before it becomes a hazard for wildlife. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:54 | |
