Morning, everyone.

0:00:150:00:16

Leah here with Monday's Newsround.

0:00:160:00:21

First up, Ant and Dec have dedicated their BAFTA win to the Queen.

0:00:210:00:24

The ceremony honouring top TV took place in London last night.

0:00:240:00:27

The duo accepted awards for Saturday Night Takeaway

0:00:270:00:29

and for best live event for the Queen's 90th birthday

0:00:290:00:31

celebration which they presented.

0:00:310:00:33

They couldn't believe Her Majesty hadn't ever won

0:00:330:00:35

an award before.

0:00:350:00:36

She's never won a BAFTA!

0:00:360:00:38

She's the Queen!

0:00:380:00:40

She was given an honorary fellowship a few years ago but she's

0:00:400:00:47

never won a BAFTA so tonight the Queen has finally won a BAFTA.

0:00:470:00:53

OK, let's get a quick round-up of today's top sports stories.

0:00:530:00:55

Spurs celebrated their last game

0:00:550:00:58

at their old White Hart Lane ground

0:00:580:01:00

after 118 years with a 2-1 win against Manchester United.

0:01:000:01:03

An early goal from Victor Wanyama put them ahead then Harry Kane made

0:01:030:01:06

sure of the win and of second place in the table.

0:01:060:01:09

There was a huge pitch invasion from fans at the end of the match.

0:01:090:01:12

Spurs will be playing home games at Wembley next year

0:01:120:01:14

while their new stadium is built.

0:01:140:01:16

But it was bad news for Hull who've been relegated.

0:01:160:01:18

They went a goal down after just two minutes in their match

0:01:180:01:21

against Crystal Palace and went on to lose 4-0.

0:01:210:01:23

The result means Palace stay in the Premier League.

0:01:230:01:26

And Liverpool are back up to third after two goals

0:01:260:01:30

from Philippe Coutinho helped them to thrash West Ham 4-0.

0:01:300:01:33

It means the Reds are just one win away from securing a Champions

0:01:330:01:37

League place next season.

0:01:370:01:40

If you've got a garage at home, what does it get used for?

0:01:400:01:44

Storing junk?

0:01:440:01:45

Keeping the bike warm?

0:01:450:01:47

Martin's been to meet two school pupils who have been

0:01:470:01:50

using their coding skills to create something big in their garage.

0:01:500:01:55

This might look like an ordinary garage but inside Beth

0:01:550:01:58

and Emily have been building something very special.

0:01:580:02:01

Meet Roy the Robot.

0:02:010:02:06

They built Roy from scratch and have just come back from America

0:02:060:02:08

where Roy competed at the Robotics World Championships.

0:02:080:02:11

They were one of the youngest teams there with 500 robots

0:02:110:02:14

from around the world.

0:02:140:02:17

Check out the awesome abilities on this robot!

0:02:170:02:19

They are back in the UK so I'm going to investigate

0:02:190:02:22

what this robot is all about.

0:02:220:02:25

What do you guys have to do to make Roy do his job?

0:02:250:02:30

First we had to design a robot that could pick up hex balls,

0:02:300:02:33

as many as four balls, and then stack them and get up

0:02:330:02:35

the bridge in one minute.

0:02:350:02:37

We've already programmed it to drive.

0:02:370:02:38

We've got a remote.

0:02:380:02:41

It looks a bit like what you use to play video games on the TV with.

0:02:410:02:45

We've changed our robot three times.

0:02:450:02:47

The first one didn't work so we changed it

0:02:470:02:50

to pick up three balls.

0:02:500:02:52

We wanted it to pick up four so we changed it again.

0:02:520:02:55

What was it like in America?

0:02:550:02:56

You competed against 500 different teams.

0:02:560:02:58

My favourite part is competing with the other teams

0:02:580:03:00

and getting to meet them and how their robot works.

0:03:000:03:03

So what's next for Roy?

0:03:030:03:05

We won't use Roy any more.

0:03:050:03:07

We'll make a new robot.

0:03:070:03:10

We found out in America what our new game is and the new game

0:03:100:03:16

is hoops instead of hex balls, so we need to try and get as many

0:03:160:03:20

hoops onto a pole as we can.

0:03:200:03:21

So watch out, robot makers.

0:03:210:03:23

There will be a new robot in town very soon.

0:03:230:03:33

And did you watch Eurovision on Saturday night?

0:03:330:03:34

It was won for the first time ever by Portugal.

0:03:340:03:37

The winner Salvador Sabral got a hero's welcome from thousands

0:03:370:03:39

of fans when he went back to Portugal.

0:03:390:03:41

But the singer was very modest, saying Portugal's real national hero

0:03:410:03:44

was still Cristiano Ronaldo.

0:03:440:03:45

Next up this man is set to go where no wingsuit

0:03:450:03:48

pilot has gone before - 40,000 feet in the air

0:03:480:03:50

to break four world records.

0:03:500:03:51

Ricky's got more.

0:03:510:03:57

This is Fraser.

0:04:010:04:04

He jumps out of planes in this special wingsuit for fun.

0:04:040:04:07

Yes, it's kind of a hobby.

0:04:070:04:14

And this week he's trying to break four wingsuit jumping world records.

0:04:140:04:19

He wants to fly at an altitude of 40,000 feet, that's higher

0:04:190:04:21

than the top of Mount Everest, the earth's highest mountain,

0:04:210:04:26

and he aims to glide at 250 mph wearing just his suit,

0:04:260:04:29

no other equipment.

0:04:290:04:30

That's very fast.

0:04:300:04:33

I jump all over the world but I train mainly in the UK

0:04:330:04:35

and I have a phenomenal team behind me who basically

0:04:350:04:38

pulled this all together.

0:04:380:04:41

He's carrying out the special world record attempt over Canada

0:04:410:04:45

and the US and hopes to raise money for an armed forces charity.

0:04:450:04:48

The suit has got a number of features.

0:04:480:04:50

First of all it is huge, which gives me a massive surface

0:04:500:04:53

area, which gives me the optimum shape and form to be able

0:04:530:04:56

to fly for a long time.

0:04:560:04:57

So what does it feel like in the sky?

0:04:570:05:00

All I can explain to you is that it's one of those sensations

0:05:000:05:04

that's really special.

0:05:040:05:05

Take all the pressure off your body, put yourself into a flat position,

0:05:050:05:08

and imagine you are a bird and you can fly

0:05:080:05:10

wherever you want to.

0:05:100:05:12

I see a point four or five miles away and I can target that

0:05:120:05:15

point and fly to it.

0:05:150:05:16

The suit actually inflates around me.

0:05:160:05:25

The airflow rushes into it.

0:05:250:05:26

It inflates and it is quite large and it allows me to actually glide.

0:05:260:05:30

Instead of falling at 120 mph I am falling at 30 to 40 mph.

0:05:300:05:33

Fraser has been training hard for this challenge and over

0:05:330:05:36

the years he has carried out 1300 wingsuit dives.

0:05:360:05:41

And talking of skydiving, a 101-year-old from Devon has become

0:05:410:05:43

the oldest person ever to do one.

0:05:430:05:46

Verdun Hayes, who fought in World War Two,

0:05:460:05:48

jumped 15,000 feet from a plane along with three

0:05:480:05:51

generations of his family yesterday afternoon.

0:05:510:05:54

He beat the previous record set by a man who was 35 days younger.

0:05:540:05:57

That's all from me.

0:05:570:05:58

Newsround's back at 4.20.

0:05:580:06:01

Today's Fave at Five is Hetty Feather. Yeah!

0:06:130:06:15

And coming up next we have got Roy and he's having

0:06:150:06:17

a whole load of egg fun today.
