where Alex and Tyler had a coaching challenge.

:00:00.:00:00.

Welcome to Newsround this Monday morning.

:00:00.:00:14.

First, some magical news for Harry Potter

:00:15.:00:18.

and the Cursed Child, which has won a record-breaking

:00:19.:00:20.

nine Olivier Awards - the top prizes in theatre.

:00:21.:00:24.

As well as winning Best New Play, Jamie Parker won Best Actor

:00:25.:00:27.

for playing Harry, while Noma Dumezweni got

:00:28.:00:31.

the Best Supporting Actress award for playing Hermoine.

:00:32.:00:36.

This is an extraordinary piece of theatre, but it's still small,

:00:37.:00:39.

I do feel from what people are saying, it's like, "Oh, gosh,

:00:40.:00:46.

I didn't know it was possible that the theatre could do that."

:00:47.:00:49.

Or did he write to you at the beginning? He was very classy. He

:00:50.:01:03.

sent a lovely bunch of flowers and said to enjoy it.

:01:04.:01:05.

Next to Australia, where scientists say two thirds

:01:06.:01:07.

of the Great Barrier Reef has now been devastated by

:01:08.:01:09.

A new survey of the reef shows that the latest damage is mainly

:01:10.:01:16.

in the middle section - and last year, the northern

:01:17.:01:19.

Bleaching happens when coral loses the algae that lives

:01:20.:01:22.

on it, and is caused by rising water temperatures.

:01:23.:01:26.

From the reef to the rainforest, where orangutans live.

:01:27.:01:29.

But they're facing a big threat from something called palm oil.

:01:30.:01:31.

Orangutans are found in Indonesia and Malaysia, but they are

:01:32.:01:37.

critically endangered, which means the numbers

:01:38.:01:38.

of them left in the wild have massively decreased.

:01:39.:01:42.

Carla has studied them for years now, and has

:01:43.:01:44.

They're basically my hairy relatives.

:01:45.:01:48.

They're just so beautiful, so smart and so incredible,

:01:49.:01:51.

So, what are some of the threats to orangutans?

:01:52.:02:01.

The major threats are deforestation and habitat loss.

:02:02.:02:04.

So, one of the problems is that the forest is cut down for

:02:05.:02:07.

things like oil palm, or palm oil plantations.

:02:08.:02:09.

That takes away the home for the orangutans and for

:02:10.:02:12.

There's a very great risk of them going

:02:13.:02:16.

extinct, maybe within the next ten years.

:02:17.:02:18.

So we're all very worried about that.

:02:19.:02:21.

It's a type of, well, oil, that we get from the fruit that

:02:22.:02:30.

It's used in lots, like up to half the things you find at

:02:31.:02:35.

the supermarket, from food to cleaning products.

:02:36.:02:40.

It's a massive business, worth billions of pounds.

:02:41.:02:42.

But many animals, like orangutans, pay the price.

:02:43.:02:45.

While some companies have agreed to stop clearing

:02:46.:02:48.

rainforests and produce palm oil safely, some conservationists say

:02:49.:02:50.

it's still a problem because the palm oil

:02:51.:02:55.

industry is now moving into other countries, where other

:02:56.:02:57.

They're unhappy about the way palm oil products are

:02:58.:03:02.

labelled, because it's sometimes unclear whether or not the palm oil

:03:03.:03:08.

has been produced in a way that's damaging to the environment or not.

:03:09.:03:11.

But with the huge demand for palm oil, farmers,

:03:12.:03:13.

companies and conservationists will have to work together to have a

:03:14.:03:16.

And if you want to read more about the issues around palm oil

:03:17.:03:22.

there's loads of info at Newsround online.

:03:23.:03:26.

At this time of year, you don't have to look too

:03:27.:03:28.

far in the countryside to see spring lambs.

:03:29.:03:31.

But while most sheep give birth to just one or two,

:03:32.:03:34.

at one farm in East Yorkshire things are going a bit differently.

:03:35.:03:39.

Sheep normally give birth to just one or two lambs,

:03:40.:03:54.

so shepherds here estimate it's a one in a million chance that this

:03:55.:03:57.

A scan revealed mum was first carrying just four,

:03:58.:04:02.

The lass that does nights was telling me about

:04:03.:04:16.

She said, the ewe with four's lambed.

:04:17.:04:19.

When I came with Debbieinto the shed, the fifth lamb

:04:20.:04:21.

They are now fed with supplements that are similar to baby formula.

:04:22.:04:25.

Which means she would normally only have two lambs.

:04:26.:04:33.

When she has five, she can't produce enough milk and have enough teats

:04:34.:04:36.

It just makes it that bit more difficult for her to do.

:04:37.:04:44.

As for mum, well, she's having a few Easter treats herself now

:04:45.:04:47.

That's all from me, Newsround's back right here in about half an hour.

:04:48.:05:03.

My favourite show on your channel is So Awkward

:05:04.:05:06.

because it's so funny and I love all the drama.

:05:07.:05:10.

My all-time favourite character is Jas

:05:11.:05:12.

because she comes up with all the crazy ideas.

:05:13.:05:14.

My favourite shows on CBBC are The Dumping Ground,

:05:15.:05:19.
