0:00:26 > 0:00:28First up, Wimbledon, and Britiain's number oneJohanna

0:00:29 > 0:00:37Ayshah's in London now to tell us what happened.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40Hi, Ricky.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43Yes that's right - she'd got further in the competition

0:00:43 > 0:00:45than any other British female for almost forty years,

0:00:45 > 0:00:48by reaching the semi finals.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50She went into the match yesterday as the favourite

0:00:50 > 0:00:53against Venus Williams but it wasn't enough to get her through.

0:00:53 > 0:00:54Here's what happened.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57A huge ovation for Jo Konta and her first Wimbledon semi-final.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Hopes were sky high for Johanna Konta, but this was the moment her

0:01:00 > 0:01:06Wimbledon journey ended.

0:01:06 > 0:01:07There it is.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10She was playing against American Venus Williams,

0:01:10 > 0:01:14who has won this competition five times in the past, so it was never

0:01:14 > 0:01:21going to be an easy match.

0:01:21 > 0:01:22What a serve.

0:01:22 > 0:01:24Venus' powerful serve and years of experience of performing

0:01:24 > 0:01:27at the top level proved too much for Konta.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30She lost the first set and after that never managed

0:01:30 > 0:01:32to get back in the game.

0:01:32 > 0:01:37And there's the first blow to Venus Williams.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39Well, the credit as to go to Venus and the way

0:01:39 > 0:01:41she was able to play today.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43I don't think I did too much wrong.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45She really did just dictate the match from the very

0:01:45 > 0:01:50beginning till the very end.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53So I had few chances to get a good foothold in the match and again,

0:01:53 > 0:01:57when I did have those chances, she did very well to take them away

0:01:57 > 0:01:59from me, so all credit to her.

0:01:59 > 0:02:01Although she didn't win, she has proved she is amongst

0:02:01 > 0:02:04the world's rest and we're pretty sure this won't be the last

0:02:04 > 0:02:13we see of Johanna Konta.

0:02:13 > 0:02:14So disappointment, but there's plenty more

0:02:14 > 0:02:17action here at Wimbledon - later today is the men's

0:02:17 > 0:02:25semi-finals and I'll be right back here at 8.15am.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28This is a vital time for butterflies according to nature expert

0:02:28 > 0:02:30Sir David Attenborough.

0:02:30 > 0:02:32Scientists say there are fewer and fewer of some

0:02:32 > 0:02:35of the UK's most common types.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38But the good news is 2017 looks like bieng a good year

0:02:43 > 0:02:46But the good news is 2017 looks like being a good year

0:02:46 > 0:02:48and Mr Attenborough wants people to help the group Butterfly

0:02:48 > 0:02:51Conservation by taking part in a big butterfly count this summer.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Next up, she's big, blue and a bit boney.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56The Natural History Museum in London has a new star resident.

0:02:56 > 0:02:57Jenny's been investigating.

0:02:57 > 0:02:58Ah, Dippy.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00You might have spotted him on a school trip.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03The diplodicus has been the rock star of the Natural History Museum

0:03:03 > 0:03:05for nearly 40 years.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08But, now, it's out with old and in with the blue.

0:03:08 > 0:03:12Meet Hope, the Balaenoptera musculus, better known

0:03:12 > 0:03:14as a blue whale.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16It's the largest animal on Earth.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18Weighing up to 200 tonnes, that's almost 30 African elephants.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21And measuring in at a lengthy 30 metres, or two double-decker

0:03:21 > 0:03:26buses, if you prefer.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29The lower jawbone is the largest single bone to be grown by any

0:03:29 > 0:03:31organism on the planet.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33And they can live to well over 100 years.

0:03:33 > 0:03:34That's a whaley long time.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37Blue whales were hunted almost to extinction in the 1900s.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40But were also one of the first species humans decided to save.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42So, by introducing Hope, the museum once visitors to think

0:03:42 > 0:03:45more about protecting animals, not just their history.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47Look at the size of the space.

0:03:50 > 0:03:51Hope is that for us.

0:03:51 > 0:04:01She will inspire people and she is gorgeous.

0:04:02 > 0:04:05It's taken the team months to put together Hope's 221 bones.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07They had to use special technology like 3-D printing

0:04:07 > 0:04:11and work with teams of engineers and conservationists.

0:04:11 > 0:04:20But, don't worry if you missed Dippy, he's set for his first-ever

0:04:28 > 0:04:30UK tour to visit the fans early next year.
