:00:08.:00:16.

what is on the way: I am here at Jodrell bank where we are about to

:00:17.:00:23.

meet the astronaut. And why it is another bad day to be a West Ham

:00:24.:00:32.

fan. First, how long can it last? There are still more than 100 flood

:00:33.:00:40.

warnings in place across Britain as heavy rain continues to cause

:00:41.:00:44.

flooding. South East England is most at risk. The ground is soaked

:00:45.:00:51.

through. In America there are signs the bitterly cold conditions could

:00:52.:00:56.

be easing. The freezing Arctic air has affected 50 states and more than

:00:57.:01:03.

119 million people. From posting YouTube videos about how to brush

:01:04.:01:08.

your teeth in space and playing the guitar in zero gravity. Chris

:01:09.:01:15.

Hadfield has become a global superstar. He is now back on Earth

:01:16.:01:19.

and we sent Martin to ask him some of your questions. I am here at

:01:20.:01:29.

Jodrell bank, where we are about to meet a very special guest, the

:01:30.:01:34.

astronaut who kept us entertained from up there in space. Chris

:01:35.:01:39.

Hadfield, thank you for speaking to us. We asked viewers to send in

:01:40.:01:43.

their questions and we have had tonnes. Are you ready? Yes. The

:01:44.:01:52.

first question is from Jasmine in Leeds and she asked, what is it like

:01:53.:02:00.

during take-off? It is an amazing experience. It is this power as if

:02:01.:02:07.

some giant had their hand or their foot in the small of your back and

:02:08.:02:12.

they are hurling you into space. It is really physical, but you know

:02:13.:02:18.

what is happening. You are leaving the earth. It is psychologically

:02:19.:02:22.

significant as well. It is an enormous day in your life. Was it

:02:23.:02:31.

hard to walk when you got back from space? It is really difficult to

:02:32.:02:37.

walk. Your balance system is so confused. It has been without

:02:38.:02:42.

gravity for so long. It is as if you have just got off a tumbling ride.

:02:43.:02:48.

If you close your eyes, you fall over. It takes a few days for your

:02:49.:02:57.

body to adopt that adapt. The third question is from Chloe in Northern

:02:58.:03:06.

Ireland. Would you ever live in space? I would rather live in the

:03:07.:03:13.

space, not so much space, but to be weightless. It is like somebody

:03:14.:03:19.

touched you on the head and said, you can fly. It is like you have a

:03:20.:03:26.

superpower. Of course I have friends and family on earth, but everyone

:03:27.:03:33.

would prefer weightlessness. Time for sport and it is not a good day

:03:34.:03:39.

to be a West Ham fan again. The team got another thrashing last night for

:03:40.:03:45.

days after losing 5-0 in the FA Cup. They were beaten 6-0 by

:03:46.:03:53.

Manchester City. Some people are calling for Sam Allardyce to be

:03:54.:04:02.

sacked as manager. The West Ham fans say nice things about you. Does that

:04:03.:04:09.

affect your determination? It is live, you get stick as a manager. I

:04:10.:04:13.

am getting stick at the moment, and that is the way this job is. Next,

:04:14.:04:23.

an important discovery about great white sharks. Scientists have

:04:24.:04:26.

discovered they live up to three times longer than they thought. They

:04:27.:04:31.

worked it out examining their bones. They found one live to 73

:04:32.:04:37.

years old. This afternoon we will find out who

:04:38.:04:42.

is nominated for one of Europe's's biggest prizes, the Brit award. The

:04:43.:04:49.

star-studded event will take place on the 19th of February in London

:04:50.:04:54.

and we will be live at the nominations this afternoon. I will

:04:55.:04:58.

be back in half an hour with your next update.
