Hello - Martin here with your

Saturday morning news hit.

0:00:130:00:18

And great news from the Winter

Paralympics in Pyeongchang this

0:00:180:00:23

morning as Millie Knight has bagged

Paralympics GB its first medal.

0:00:230:00:25

The visually impaired skier took

silver in the downhill event.

0:00:250:00:28

Kate Grey is there for the BBC...

0:00:280:00:30

Hallo, Newsround!

0:00:300:00:32

Great news from Pyeongchang.

0:00:320:00:33

Britain have won their first medal

of these Paralympic games,

0:00:330:00:39

Britain have won their first medal

of these Paralympic Games,

0:00:390:00:42

and it's the silver medal

for Millie Knight and her guide

0:00:420:00:45

Brett Wild in the downhill.

0:00:450:00:46

And on their way to the medals

ceremony, I caught up with them.

0:00:460:00:49

Here is what they had to say.

0:00:490:00:51

Huge congratulations.

0:00:510:00:52

What a relief it is to get a medal

under your belt on the first day.

0:00:520:00:55

It's absolutely fantastic.

0:00:550:00:56

This time last year,

I sustained quite a severe

0:00:560:00:59

concussion on this slope,

where I crashed

0:00:590:01:00

into the finish line.

0:01:000:01:01

And to now cross the line today

as a Paralympic silver

0:01:010:01:04

medallist is amazing.

0:01:040:01:08

Were you nervous at the start?

0:01:080:01:09

Was that going through

your mind at all?

0:01:090:01:11

Yeah, I certainly was nervous,

but I guess that just

0:01:110:01:16

means I cared about it.

0:01:160:01:17

The moment we pushed out

that start gate, though,

0:01:170:01:19

all the nerves went.

0:01:190:01:20

So, Millie and Brett will be back

in action tomorrow in the super G

0:01:200:01:25

in the super G this time round.

0:01:250:01:27

They will be up against their

team-mates Menna Fitzpatrick

0:01:270:01:29

and Kelly Gallagher,

so lots more still to come

0:01:290:01:31

here and hopefully more medals.

0:01:310:01:33

An absolutely brilliant

start to the Games.

0:01:330:01:34

Well done, Millie.

0:01:340:01:35

And if you want to see more

from her, head online where you can

0:01:350:01:38

find out what happened

when Newsround challenged

0:01:380:01:40

Millie and Brett to

the ultimate friendhip test!

0:01:400:01:42

OK, time for a quick round-up

of some of what's happening

0:01:420:01:44

in the Six Nations today...

0:01:440:01:46

And Ireland could win

the championship this weekend.

0:01:460:01:48

The men in green are also well

on course to achieve the Grand Slam

0:01:480:01:51

if they beat Scotland,

which means winning every

0:01:510:01:53

match in the tournament.

0:01:530:01:58

Scotland know a victory this

afternoon would make them

0:01:580:02:00

the favourites to win

the Six Nations Trophy.

0:02:000:02:03

It's not going to be easy

because the Scots haven't got

0:02:030:02:06

the best away record

in this tournament.

0:02:060:02:08

The reigning Six Nations

champions England are up

0:02:080:02:10

against France in Paris tonight.

0:02:100:02:11

Owen Farrell will captain England

to fill in for the injured

0:02:110:02:17

hooker Dylan Hartley.

0:02:170:02:18

England will be looking to get back

to winning ways after being defeated

0:02:180:02:23

by Scotland two weeks ago,

and France, well, they are on good

0:02:230:02:26

form at the moment so it makes

for an intersting contest.

0:02:260:02:28

Just time for one final sports story

that made us chuckle this morning.

0:02:280:02:31

Here's the moment one

footballer made a wrong move -

0:02:310:02:34

when he tackled the referee.

0:02:340:02:36

Yes, he really did!

0:02:360:02:39

It happened in an Arabian Gulf Cup

semifinal last night.

0:02:390:02:43

While player Ali Salmin's error

probably did him no favours staying

0:02:430:02:45

on the right side of the ref,

it at least gave his Al-Wasl

0:02:450:02:48

team mates a laugh.

0:02:480:02:49

Whoops!

0:02:490:02:52

We're back just before 12.15.

0:02:520:02:53

See you then!
