Hello, Ricky here. We are live just after five with Tuesday's jam- | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
packed Newsround. Stay away you are for the latest, including Doctor | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
Who, will he be a Hollywood superstar? And the dog that loves | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
surfing. First, the footballers raising | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
money for the famine in East Africa. Earlier this year we showed you | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
pictures of families leaving their homes and walking to refugee camps | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
in search of food and water. Thousands of people have died and | :00:51. | :00:56. | |
millions are still suffering, with Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia are the | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
worst hit. A new appeal is about to be launched. This time, the Premier | :00:59. | :01:05. | |
League is getting involved with the young football stars of the future. | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
Premier League football is big business. Companies pay millions to | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
get their names on advertising boards. But on one weekend you will | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
see something very different. That is why these children have come to | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
Downing Street. It is not every day that you get to test your skills in | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
front of the Prime Minister. These guys are here for a very special | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
reason. They have joined football stars Patrick Vieira and Niall | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
Quinn to launch a new appeal to help those affected by the famine | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
in East Africa. In the last weekend of November, the Premier League | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
will donate free advertising on the pitch and inside football | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
programmes so that charities can appeal for more money. These guys | :01:42. | :01:49. | |
have been busy raising cash as well. Lottie raised nearly �500 after | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
seeing Newsround's report from Kenya. There was a lady and she | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
walked for miles to get to the local well. Then there wasn't | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
anything there. She had to go back to her children without anything. | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
And the kids got to grill money man Chancellor George Osborne. We are | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
going to help save many children's lives. That is a great thing. Your | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
school has been particularly good at raising money. I want to say | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
thank you. When I was in Kenya, at the Dadaab refugee camp, everywhere | :02:21. | :02:28. | |
I went there were football fans. Chelsea, Arsenal, Man United. | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
Anyone for Tottenham Hotspur? It is scenes like this that inspired the | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
Premier League to get involved. go to Africa and you see the | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
passion there, they love the Premier League. It is the biggest | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
lead in the world. It is important that it was part of it. British aid | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
is already getting food to more than 2 million people hit by | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
drought. It is hoped that football power will help even more. | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
After more than a year without rain in some places, the autumn rains | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
have arrived in the region. You can still watch Newsround's special | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
programme, Children of the Drought, by heading to the website. | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
Next, this volcano and the Democratic Republic of Congo in | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
Africa has been shooting lather hundreds of metres into the sky. It | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
is thought to be the biggest eruption for more than 100 years. | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
It looks so amazing that Park Rangers have even set up a camps so | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
that tourists can enjoy the fireworks from a safe distance. | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
Two girls had a ride to remember after spending hours hanging upside | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
down when the roller-coaster they were on got stuck. The ride came to | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
a standstill when they were in the air at an amusement park in China. | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
A rescue team used a ladder to get them down. Luckily, they were not | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
hurt. Now to a discovery of fossils that | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
have got scientists in South America in a right flap. The find | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
of the old remains could help them find out lots about the ancient | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
relatives of these guys, whales. Leah has been finding out why | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
people are so excited about a load of old bones. | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
I'll admit, it doesn't look much. But this dusty old desert on the | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
coach -- coast of Chile is that home of a frantic race to keep an | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
amazing discovery safe. Paley apologists, or fossil experts, have | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
been an covering an incredible selection of fossils that they | :04:17. | :04:25. | |
reckon is a pretty big deal. There has never been a find of this | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
size or diversity anywhere in the world. It is one of the very | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
special parts of the Atacama region. Whales, the giants of the ocean. | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
And they are some of the most mysterious animals on the planet. | :04:40. | :04:47. | |
But these aren't any old whales. They are 7 million years old. Being | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
so old, the scientists are not sure what they could look like. We | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
thought we would use our imagination. Maybe they had three | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
pawns? Maybe a huge fin on their back? Or what about a massive set | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
of teeth? Probably not! But with the discovery of these 80 fossils, | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
some of them complete skeletons, scientists hope to find out more | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
than they have ever known before about ancient whales. Add to that | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
the sharks, crocodile and seal fossils that were found nearby, and | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
that is why this record find is so interesting. | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
If you are a Doctor Who fan, prepared to get excited. Remain is | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
the Time Lord's adventures are going to be turned into a film. A | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
top director has said he is working on turning the hit series into a | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
full-length film. We might have a bit of a wait, because he reckons | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
it will take two to three years to transform The Doctor onto the big | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
screen. I want you to forget Strictly and | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
the X Factor. The real talent was on show at a special competition in | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
London last again. It was the first ever dance Proms. Press Packer | :05:52. | :06:02. | |
:06:02. | :06:07. | ||
I am Emily and tonight I am going to be performing at the first ever | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
Dance Proms right here at the Royal Albert Hall. The dance we are | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
performing is called Carmen. Most of them performed on point, which | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
is hard because you're standing on your toes the whole time. These are | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
the point shoes, they are different from normal ballet shoes because | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
they have a cardboard layer. They have a block at the end that | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
supports the toes when you are on point. They are hard to break in. | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
It's quite hard to stop yourself from getting dizzy. Dancers used a | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
technique called spotting, way you focus your eyes on a fixed point. I | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
keep my eyes fixed on the door frame to stop myself from getting | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
dizzy. There are more than 400 people dancing, including the stars | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
from Strictly. How do you cope with backstage nerves? That is a hard | :06:55. | :07:01. | |
one! Even now, after so many years of performing, they are still there. | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
But you need that to be a performer. It is so important to have a | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
nervous energy before you go on. always have to make sure that we | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
know that dance Inside Out. When you are 100% sure in what your feet, | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
arms and legs are doing, you are halfway there. I really want to be | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
a professional dancer. So performing with professionals from | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
the Royal Ballet and Strictly has been a real treat. | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
Finally, a certain dog. That always goes down well in the Newsround | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
office. Meet Mango, a two-year-old labrador that likes to catch waves. | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
She became a star after her owner posted a video on the internet of | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
her learning to surf in Newquay. She might even enter a contest in | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
the United States. That is all we have time for tonight. Head over to | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
the website to let us know what adventures Doctor Who should get up | :07:55. | :07:59. |
