Leah and Ricky here with Friday's Newsround. Stick with us two for a

:00:31.:00:36.

smoother ride in to the weekend. We've got the low-down on the Brits

:00:36.:00:38.

2012. And find out about the robot giving

:00:38.:00:42.

Justin Bieber a run for his money. First up to the news that more than

:00:42.:00:45.

500,000 chickens in the UK are still being kept in cramped

:00:45.:00:53.

conditions, despite a recent change in the law. You might remember I

:00:53.:00:56.

reported on new rules that came in in January that made it illegal for

:00:56.:00:59.

farmers keep hens in tiny cages. It's called battery farming and was

:00:59.:01:03.

seen as a cheap way to produce eggs for supermarkets. Today it's been

:01:03.:01:08.

revealed that up to 30 farms across Britain have ignored that law. Some

:01:08.:01:11.

farmers say it's because replacing the cages can cost them thousands

:01:11.:01:14.

of pounds, money they simply can't afford. But animal rights groups

:01:14.:01:20.

are angry and say there should be no excuse. We are very surprised,

:01:20.:01:29.

really shocked, that's 30 farmers are still using these illegal cages.

:01:29.:01:34.

It was agreed 12 years ago across Europe to ban these cages and that

:01:34.:01:39.

ban came into force on the 1st January this year, so farmers have

:01:39.:01:43.

had a huge are not have time to get ready for this and quite frankly,

:01:44.:01:48.

it is a scandal that some of them have failed to do so.

:01:48.:01:51.

The government says they are disappointed that not all farms are

:01:51.:01:54.

listening to the rules and they have given farmers that have not

:01:54.:01:57.

changed their cages until the start of February now to get rid of them.

:01:57.:01:59.

We'll keep you right up to date on Newsround.

:01:59.:02:03.

It's the biggest night of the year for music fans and it always throws

:02:03.:02:06.

up a few surprises. Last year Tinie Tempah stole the show, Adele made

:02:06.:02:10.

everyone cry and it was held at the mammoth O2 Arena for the very first

:02:10.:02:14.

time. I was in London last night for you to find out who was up for

:02:14.:02:24.
:02:24.:02:27.

It is getting quite exciting now because the nominations are

:02:27.:02:31.

starting to filter through and Ed Sheeran has four nominations,

:02:31.:02:36.

Jessie J has got three, and both of them on the red carpet. Every

:02:36.:02:41.

single award I have won so far, be taught me beforehand, so I said for

:02:41.:02:48.

the Brits, I want the surprise. I don't want to know beforehand.

:02:48.:02:54.

Sheeran is just 20. He is up for best male, best song, best album

:02:54.:02:58.

and best break through. He is mates with Rupert Grint, the Harry Potter

:02:58.:03:08.
:03:08.:03:08.

# I am going to pick up the pieces It is scary how much like me he is.

:03:08.:03:13.

We wear the same clothes, we say the same things, we watched the

:03:13.:03:19.

same things. Are you make squares might yeah. We were going to do

:03:20.:03:23.

something at the team awards because he won Best Actor and I won

:03:23.:03:33.
:03:33.:03:34.

best single fare we were going to switch! That could have been funny!

:03:34.:03:40.

We have got JLS! You have been nominated for best single.

:03:40.:03:47.

# She makes Me wanna #. Very excited! We will never get

:03:47.:03:53.

bored of being nominated for a Brit. It is extra special for us because

:03:53.:04:01.

we Co wrote this song. Hopefully, I here is to another Brit.

:04:01.:04:06.

Top marks for your trainers! Jessie J, joining me now on the

:04:06.:04:10.

carpet for the nominations 2012. You have been nominated for three

:04:10.:04:16.

awards. Get in. What do you think you are going to win? Nominating

:04:16.:04:21.

isn't about winning, it is about participating and knowing that your

:04:21.:04:27.

hard work has paid off. The standard of music in the UK is so

:04:27.:04:32.

high right now that whoever wins, I am going to be proud of them

:04:32.:04:36.

because they will probably be a mate. All of the nominations have

:04:36.:04:42.

been announced. The biggest showbiz event in the calendar takes place

:04:42.:04:48.

in February. We will be there and we hope you can join us.

:04:48.:04:55.

Give me some gossip. JLS told me they might do a duet with the

:04:55.:04:59.

Saturdays at the wedding. A Dell will be performing at the Brits

:04:59.:05:04.

again so we can expect even more tears -- a Dell. Jessie J said she

:05:04.:05:10.

would shave her head in a couple of months for charity. Justin Bieber

:05:10.:05:16.

was not at the Brits last night. He was busy over at a big technology

:05:16.:05:20.

show in Las Vegas. He was unveiling a new state-of-the-art portable

:05:20.:05:23.

speaker that's also a dancing robot. And he seemed pretty impressed at

:05:23.:05:32.

its funky moves. When you think of getting to school

:05:32.:05:36.

each morning, there's a few options open to you. You could take the bus,

:05:36.:05:40.

walk or even get on your bike. But this month one group of kids in

:05:40.:05:44.

Scotland will be testing out a rather different mode of transport.

:05:44.:05:47.

From Monday, it's all aboard the school boat for pupils at Plockton

:05:47.:05:57.
:05:57.:05:58.

High. Then normal bus route has a slight obstacle: 100 tons of rock

:05:58.:06:08.
:06:08.:06:08.

and earth that fell from a cliff onto the road. The bus would now

:06:08.:06:11.

have to do a 140 mile detour every morning and again at night. This

:06:11.:06:15.

week they've been taking the train. But there's only one of those a day,

:06:15.:06:18.

which means not arriving at school until 11 in the morning and missing

:06:18.:06:21.

loads of lessons. I have only got three subjects this year and I have

:06:21.:06:27.

actually missed two of them already, so it is a bit of pain.

:06:27.:06:31.

The road could be closed for weeks or even months so these guys might

:06:31.:06:37.

have to get used to life on the ocean way.

:06:37.:06:43.

They are not experiencing as much trouble as this guy! This truck

:06:43.:06:47.

driver lost control of his lorry on an icy road and got stuck in the

:06:47.:06:51.

middle of the frozen lake. He managed to escape through the

:06:51.:07:00.

sunroof but the truck was trapped under over two metres of ice. I bet

:07:00.:07:07.

he got an icy reception when he got back to work! Just before we go,

:07:07.:07:10.

it's Friday the 13th, one of the most superstitious days in the

:07:10.:07:12.

calendar, and we've been taking your comments on the Newsround

:07:12.:07:16.

website about the superstitions you have. Whether it's not walking

:07:16.:07:19.

under ladders, black cats crossing your path, not opening umbrellas

:07:19.:07:22.
