0:00:10 > 0:00:12Big minecraft news,
0:00:12 > 0:00:19And the song breaking even more records.
0:00:24 > 0:00:26He's one of Britain's greatest ever athletes -
0:00:26 > 0:00:29but on Saturday night, Sir Mo Farah will be
0:00:29 > 0:00:32competing in his last race at a major competition.
0:00:32 > 0:00:38Jenny's had a look back over his amazing career.
0:00:38 > 0:00:42Mo Farah celebrating a win has become a familiar sight,
0:00:42 > 0:00:46and he is hoping for yet another in the 5000 metres on Saturday,
0:00:46 > 0:00:49one of his last ever races before he retires.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53But, let's back up a moment and go back to the start.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57Mo moved from Somalia in Africa to England
0:00:57 > 0:01:00when he was only eight years old.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03He barely knew a word of English but it was here
0:01:03 > 0:01:06that he first realised he could run, and fast.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08From then on, there was no stopping him.
0:01:08 > 0:01:13His first major win came in 2011 when he took gold in the 5000 metres
0:01:13 > 0:01:16at the World Championships in South Korea.
0:01:16 > 0:01:21Mo moved to the US, and trained hard in some tough conditions.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23But, it paid off.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27He stormed the London 2012 Olympics, picking up two golds and of course
0:01:27 > 0:01:31celebrating with his famous Mo-bot.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34Mo took the double again at Rio.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37And another gold in last weeks 10,000 metres sealed his place
0:01:37 > 0:01:41as one of the greatest British athletes of all time.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Don't worry, it won't be the last we see of Mo,
0:01:44 > 0:01:47because he will be switching over to marathon running instead.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51But first he faces one of his last big challenges
0:01:51 > 0:01:54on Saturday in the 5000 metres.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57And if you've been watching the World Athletics Championships,
0:01:57 > 0:02:01you'll definitely have heard of this guy - Botswana's Isaac Makwala.
0:02:01 > 0:02:08What a journey he's been on.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11It is the story that has dominated these World Championships.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14And it could be about to have a pretty epic ending.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Tonight, Botswana's Isaac Makwala will have the chance
0:02:17 > 0:02:19to become a world champion.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23But just two days ago, the dream seemed over for him.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26He was one of a number of athletes affected by a stomach bug
0:02:26 > 0:02:30and stopped from competing for medical reasons.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33He missed the chance to run in the 400 metres and had to be
0:02:33 > 0:02:35monitored by doctors.
0:02:35 > 0:02:39But then he was given the chance to run a solo time
0:02:39 > 0:02:41trial in the 200 metres.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44He had to get the qualifying time, roared on by the crowd,
0:02:44 > 0:02:48he did it, booking him a place in the semifinals.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51I would like to thank the IAAF for giving me another chance.
0:02:51 > 0:02:57And the crowd was so amazing, they gave me belief.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01I want to thank this crowd, it is so amazing.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04It is not just the crowd that will be amazing if he smashes
0:03:04 > 0:03:09the 200 meter final this evening.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12Stargazers are getting ready to enjoy the spectacular
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Perseid Meteor Shower.
0:03:14 > 0:03:15But what is it?
0:03:15 > 0:03:17And how can you watch it?
0:03:17 > 0:03:20BBC Weatherman Simon King can explain.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24So it is the annual Perseid meteor shower over the next few days,
0:03:24 > 0:03:27and while it sounds quite technical, all it really means
0:03:27 > 0:03:30is a load of shooting stars up in the night sky.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33You might be lucky enough to see some.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36You will either have to be getting up early in the morning
0:03:36 > 0:03:37or staying up quite late.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41That is the best time to see it.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Tonight should be quite a good night actually.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45For England and Wales there will be some clear skies.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48Friday night, perhaps eastern England, but even then it might
0:03:48 > 0:03:49be still too cloudy.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52But for England and Wales tonight, those clear skies will give a great
0:03:52 > 0:03:56view of the night sky to catch those shooting stars.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59But for Scotland and Northern Ireland more cloud rolling in here,
0:03:59 > 0:04:01and some outbreaks of rain as well.
0:04:01 > 0:04:06So not particularly good there, good luck if you want to catch them.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Big news for Minecraft fans now, as the yearly conference,
0:04:09 > 0:04:11called Minecon, is being changed.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14It'll now be a free and interactive, live streamed show, called
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Minecon Earth, instead.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19The Minecraft team hope this will mean more people can take part.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22They're still encouraging fans to dress up, and submit
0:04:22 > 0:04:26their Minecraft-themed costumes online.
0:04:26 > 0:04:34Finally to this song.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Yep - we all know it.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39It's one of the catchiest tunes of the summer - Despasito.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42Well it's now the most watched video on YouTube of all time.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45It's been viewed more than three billion times.
0:04:45 > 0:04:52And it was only uploaded in January!
0:04:52 > 0:04:57That's all from me, Newsround's back at 7:40am tomorrow with Ayshah.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09We love CBBC. And we love The Next Step... And The Dumping Ground.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Can't wait for more episodes.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Whoo!
0:05:16 > 0:05:17My favourite programme is The Next Step.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22and I love dancing, too.
