Well, sort of. See you! | 0:00:00 | 0:00:08 | |
Good morning, and welcome to Newsround, I'm Ricky. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
First, a massive parade of Great Britain's Olympic | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
and Paralympic heroes is happening today in Manchester. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:22 | |
Loads of Rio 2016's stars are here in MediaCityUK today, | 0:00:22 | 0:00:25 | |
ahead of this afternoon's celebration through the city's | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
streets, before another parade in London tomorrow. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:32 | |
More than 150,000 people are expected to come out to watch, | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
and Paralympic swimming star Ellie Simmonds can't wait. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:40 | |
I'm very lucky that I've been able to go to three | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
after Beijing, and after London, and after Rio now, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
so it's going to be great, | 0:00:45 | 0:00:47 | |
and to come here today in Manchester and then London tomorrow | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
to thank the people that supported us through the summer | 0:00:50 | 0:00:53 | |
of the Olympics and Paralympics is going to be exciting. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:56 | |
Very exciting. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:57 | |
Well, let's just remind ourselves of those unforgettable Rio Games. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
Here's Jenny. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
It was a massive summer for our Olympic and Paralympic athletes. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
Years of training paid off, and they smashed it. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
It started in the swimming, | 0:01:09 | 0:01:10 | |
where Adam Peaty got the first gold for Team GB. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
Medal mania had begun. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
Gymnast Max Whitlock brought home not one but two gold medals, | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
six golds were won in the velodrome, with Laura Trott leading the way, | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
Mo Farah got the double double, Nicola Adams defended her title, | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
and the hockey team battled their way into the record books. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:32 | |
Team GB had aced it to second place in the medal table, | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
and it didn't stop there. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
From day one at the Paralympic Games, | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
the medals continued to roll in. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
Kadeena Cox got not one but two golds in two sports. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
15-year-old Ellie Robinson stormed to victory | 0:01:45 | 0:01:52 | |
in the S6 50m butterfly. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:59 | |
Jonnie Peacock held on to his T44 100m title, | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
and Hannah Cockroft added three goals to the tally. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
And, of course, cyclist Dame Sarah Storey became | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
the most successful British female Paralympian ever, | 0:02:05 | 0:02:06 | |
after winning three golds. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:08 | |
ParalympicsGB newly doubled the goals won four years ago | 0:02:08 | 0:02:11 | |
and also finished second in the medal table. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:12 | |
Incredible! | 0:02:12 | 0:02:17 | |
Well, the parade kicks off at 4:30, | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
and Jenny will be live from there in Newsround at 4:20. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:24 | |
Moving on to these incredible pictures of a Chinese space rocket | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
blasting off from the Gobi Desert in east Asia. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
It's sending two astronauts to China's new space station. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
They'll spend a month carrying out different experiments. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:38 | |
Now someone who knows just what it's like to be in space is this guy, | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
British astronaut Tim Peake. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:43 | |
He's been travelling the country meeting children | 0:02:43 | 0:02:44 | |
since returning from the International Space Station. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
This weekend, he met with Jenny here at Newsround HQ | 0:02:47 | 0:02:49 | |
to answer some of your questions. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
After six months floating in space, Major Tim Peake landed | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
at Newsround HQ to a reception that was out of this world. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:02 | |
Olivia, who is nine, from Leicester, wants to know, | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
what does it feel like to be able to float around? | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
Yeah, floating in space is really liberating, | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
it's fantastic, as you'd expect. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
When you first start, you're not very good at it, | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
and your legs and arms are flailing everywhere, | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
you kick things off. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:21 | |
When you get used to it, you can just push off with one finger | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
and float down the other end of the space station, it's great fun. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
This next one you've already spoken about it a little bit, | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
but it's something that pretty much everyone wants to know - | 0:03:30 | 0:03:33 | |
how did you use the toilet in space, | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
and how did you get rid of the waste from the ISS? | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
It's a big one, it is a big one. Yeah, important question. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
Right, so in space, to keep everything under control, | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
you must have airflow, airflow is the key, | 0:03:43 | 0:03:44 | |
so you have a little vacuum pump to the loo, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
and that creates the suction so you can pee into the tube, | 0:03:47 | 0:03:50 | |
and it keeps everything going in the right direction. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:52 | |
And the important thing is, when you finished being, | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
you keep the pump running for at least 30 seconds, | 0:03:54 | 0:03:58 | |
because otherwise, if you switch it off too soon, then it has not | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
all gone back into the bucket. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
We've got some questions from these guys, bear with us one moment. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
Do you take teddies into space? | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
Actually, I took a teddy, I've got two young boys, | 0:04:09 | 0:04:13 | |
so I took a small teddy in for each of them, | 0:04:13 | 0:04:18 | |
and my excuse was it was for my two small boys, | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
but I had them every night with me so...! | 0:04:21 | 0:04:25 | |
Now if you haven't caught up on this weekend's TV, | 0:04:25 | 0:04:27 | |
turn the volume down now. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
First up, on The X Factor, | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
we waved goodbye to 18-year-old Freddy Parker. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
He faced Saara Aalto in the Sunday sing-off. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
The vote went to deadlock, | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
and Freddy got the least number of votes overall. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:40 | |
Fans of the show were also treated | 0:04:40 | 0:04:41 | |
to the world-exclusive first play of Little Mix's new record. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
Over on Strictly, | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
BBC Breakfast presenter Naga Munchetty failed to impress | 0:04:46 | 0:04:50 | |
the judges after performing in the dance off against singer Anastacia. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:53 | |
Naga is the fourth celeb to leave the show. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back right here in about half an hour. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 |
