Hello everyone, Joe here live at 1700 hours on BBC One. Stick around

:00:23.:00:32.

as here's what's happening this afternoon: the New Atlas that is

:00:32.:00:36.

the size of an elephant. Ice Age 4 is out in cinemas. We

:00:36.:00:40.

chat to the creators of the hit movies.

:00:41.:00:45.

This afternoon's been big news for John Terry. He's been found not

:00:45.:00:47.

guilty of racially abusing Anton Ferdinand after a week-long court

:00:47.:00:57.
:00:57.:00:58.

case in London. He was accused of using racially offensive language

:00:58.:01:01.

to Anton Ferdinand last October. If he'd been found guilty his career

:01:01.:01:05.

at Chelsea would have been under threat. But in the end the judge

:01:05.:01:07.

cleared him of the charges. Ricky's been outside the court this

:01:07.:01:10.

afternoon. This case boils down to an incident which happened in

:01:10.:01:15.

October last year during a Premier League match between Chelsea and

:01:15.:01:19.

Queen's Park Rangers. Queens Park Rangers were winning 1-0 and

:01:19.:01:24.

Chelsea were down to nine men. Ferdinand and John Terry exchanged

:01:24.:01:31.

insults. Ferdinand accused Terry of using racist remarks towards him.

:01:31.:01:37.

John Terry denied this. I am joined by BBC Radio 1 Newsbeat reported

:01:37.:01:43.

Jonathan Blake. What was it like inside the courtroom? It was very

:01:43.:01:50.

busy, it was packed. As the judge read out the verdict, John Terry

:01:50.:01:53.

just looked straight ahead and left the court very quickly when the

:01:53.:01:58.

judge said he was not guilty. As he did that, there was cheers from the

:01:58.:02:03.

public gallery. This has been hanging over John Terry for more

:02:03.:02:08.

than eight months, what will happen next? It has had an effect on his

:02:08.:02:13.

career, because he has lost the England captaincy. He has had to

:02:13.:02:17.

stand up and defend himself and admitted using those words on the

:02:17.:02:27.
:02:27.:02:32.

pitch, but not as an insult. But he could face an FA investigation.

:02:32.:02:35.

looks like Rangers could start season in the Scottish Third

:02:35.:02:45.
:02:45.:02:46.

Division. Today, clubs in Scotland voted that they should start next

:02:46.:02:49.

season there because they broke the rules. That means instead of here,

:02:49.:02:52.

They'll start next season all the way down here. It's all happening

:02:52.:02:55.

because they got themselves into massive financial problems. It

:02:55.:02:57.

means they'll be playing clubs like Montrose, Peterhead and Stranraer

:02:57.:03:00.

who usually have about 400 people watching. It'll now take Rangers at

:03:00.:03:03.

least three years to get back into Scottish football's elite.

:03:03.:03:06.

So the clubs decided what happened to Rangers but it was a tough

:03:06.:03:10.

decision. TV companies pay the top league a lot of money to show

:03:10.:03:12.

football games. Without Rangers, they won't pay as much. Rangers

:03:13.:03:16.

also have a lot of fans and clubs make money from selling tickets to

:03:16.:03:19.

their matches. But because they broke the rules, the other clubs

:03:19.:03:23.

wanted to teach them a lesson. Next to Syria and the United

:03:23.:03:26.

Nations has said they're "shocked and appalled" at reports of a

:03:26.:03:29.

deadly attack on a village in the north of the country which is

:03:29.:03:39.
:03:39.:03:40.

thought to have killed around 200 Next next to Belfast. There was a

:03:40.:03:44.

march in the Catholic area of the city by Protestants. Bricks and

:03:44.:03:47.

missiles were thrown at police. Marchers like this happen this time

:03:48.:03:54.

every year. If you want to know about the

:03:54.:03:58.

history behind the marches in Northern Ireland, had to our

:03:58.:04:06.

website. The world's biggest applause as

:04:06.:04:14.

gone on show at the British Library. It is 6 ft tall by 9 ft wide. It is

:04:14.:04:19.

massive. -- the world's biggest atlas.

:04:19.:04:25.

This is a library book and it has to be carried on a trolley. You

:04:25.:04:30.

need six people to lift it up. An atlas is a book of maps and this

:04:30.:04:35.

one is the biggest ever made. Each page is tallest than most grown-ups

:04:35.:04:42.

and open out it is wider than an elephant. The man turning the pages

:04:42.:04:45.

is Gordon. He made the book because he says computer maps are not big

:04:45.:04:51.

enough. He wants to show the world what the the view is like from

:04:51.:04:57.

space. Anybody could see this if we were astronauts in a spaceship.

:04:57.:05:05.

Given most of us won't be an astronaut, travelling the world on

:05:05.:05:09.

a spacecraft, this is about as close as you get. To make sure it

:05:09.:05:13.

is the biggest, the people from the Guinness Book of Records came to

:05:13.:05:16.

measure it. Imagine trying to fit that in your

:05:17.:05:26.
:05:27.:05:30.

school bag. More good news for Britain's

:05:30.:05:32.

cyclists this afternoon. This man, Bradley Wiggins, is still in

:05:32.:05:36.

overall lead of the Tour de France after today's 12th stage. But it

:05:36.:05:39.

was another Brit, David Millar who won today's race. Wiggins though is

:05:39.:05:42.

still the leader of the competition and that means he'll get to keep

:05:42.:05:43.

wearing the snazzy yellow jersey too.

:05:43.:05:46.

Next to a story with a woolly mammoth, a hyperactive squirrel and

:05:46.:05:50.

boy band, The Wanted. Ice Age 4 is in cinemas today in England and

:05:50.:05:53.

Wales, but it's already out in Scotland and Northern Ireland. The

:05:53.:05:56.

movie series has made a fortune, but as I found out it all starts

:05:56.:06:06.
:06:06.:06:06.

with a doodle. Ice Age, for 10 years of they have

:06:06.:06:15.

been packing out cinemas. Continental drift is their 4th

adventure and the usual characters are joined by some new ones on and

off the screen. When the directors hit a problem, they drafted in the

wanted to get a key part of the movie rights. We needed something

:06:31.:06:34.

musical that speaks to a contemporary audience. Every time

:06:34.:06:41.

we tried to make our own version, it did not sound right. As an

:06:41.:06:46.

animated film it is done on computers, but like the Acorn, big

:06:46.:06:52.

things have small beginnings. It starts with a pen and paper. What

:06:52.:06:57.

becomes important as you are drawing a character is what his

:06:57.:07:02.

attitude is an expression. Making a film like this involves a lot of

:07:02.:07:08.

drawing. They have fun creating characters for this one. We wanted

:07:08.:07:14.

to see the audience to see the characters as pirates. We groomed

:07:14.:07:20.

his hair slightly to make it look like a pirate hat. Surrender your

:07:20.:07:26.

ship or face my fury. It takes years to make an animated film like

:07:26.:07:31.

this, but they are big business. The films have made more than �1

:07:31.:07:36.

billion worldwide, and as long as artists keep coming up with new

:07:36.:07:39.

ideas, they could be around for another decade.

:07:39.:07:42.

There are some brilliant tips on how to draw cartoon characters like

sandpipers are the first to hatch in the UK. They are one of the

rarest breed of birds with only 200 left in the wild. The eggs came

from Russia as part of a breeding programme.

:08:12.:08:15.

Just a quick reminder to tune in to Match of the Day Kickabout tomorrow

:08:15.:08:18.

morning. This week it's all about the history of the beautiful game

:08:18.:08:22.

and it's fair to say one thing has come a long way - the rules.

:08:22.:08:28.

The rules of football. These are fine fellows are having a jolly

:08:28.:08:32.

good kickabout. At a time when people made up their own rules,

games could last up to two hours. Rather you than me. 1891, the
