0:00:23 > 0:00:26this lady - she's called Andria Zafirakou, and she was up

0:00:45 > 0:00:47whatever your circumstances, whatever your troubles, please know

0:00:47 > 0:00:50that you have the potential to succeed in whatever your dreams

0:00:50 > 0:00:56may be, and that is a right that nobody should take from you.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Well done, Andria!

0:00:59 > 0:01:02Next, for some of you when you look out the window this morning,

0:01:02 > 0:01:04it might look like a winter wonderland, even though it's spring.

0:01:04 > 0:01:07Hundreds of schools in South West England

0:01:07 > 0:01:10have a snow day today, as up to 40cm has fallen and some

0:01:10 > 0:01:13roads are really difficult to walk or drive on.

0:01:13 > 0:01:17Weather forecasters say temperatures should get warmer by tomorrow.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21Time to catch up on some football news.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24In the FA Cup, Chelsea will play Southampton in the semi-finals.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Chelsea beat Leicester City in extra time.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29Pedro was the hero of the day, his header winning the match.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31Southampton managed two goals as they beat Wigan

0:01:31 > 0:01:352-0 in their match.

0:01:35 > 0:01:36The other semi-final will be between Tottenham

0:01:36 > 0:01:38and Manchester United.

0:01:38 > 0:01:44Next, we've been travelling around the UK hearing some

0:01:44 > 0:01:46of your amazing real-life stories.

0:01:46 > 0:01:47Today, we're hearing from Daniel and Sabrina,

0:01:47 > 0:01:49who managed to do something incredible, all thanks

0:01:49 > 0:01:56to learning first aid.

0:02:04 > 0:02:11I feel really happy that I've saved someone who I love.

0:02:15 > 0:02:19In July, after school, on the last day, we came upstairs

0:02:19 > 0:02:23to say hello to our grandmother.

0:02:23 > 0:02:25Straightaway we saw her on the floor.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28We saw that she couldn't breathe so we opened up her airway,

0:02:28 > 0:02:32we put her in the recovery position.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35I was seeing if she wasn't choking on her tongue or anything,

0:02:35 > 0:02:38or anything was blocking her throat.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41I was worried.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43I didn't know if I was doing it right.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47I was a bit calm, all because of Cub Scouts, I knew what to do.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51When the paramedics came, they were shocked on who put

0:02:51 > 0:02:53them in this position, and their words were

0:02:53 > 0:02:56that we are diamonds.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59I found it quite easy to learn because all you had to do

0:02:59 > 0:03:04is move her arms and legs and open up airways.

0:03:04 > 0:03:09Afterwards, we got to meet Prince Harry because what of we've done.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13I didn't know who he was before.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15Prince Harry was quite amazed about what we had done.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18I think more children should learn first aid because you don't know

0:03:18 > 0:03:20when someone's going to collapse, fall unconscious

0:03:20 > 0:03:28or maybe even faint.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Well done, guys, and inspiring story.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35Can you make the noise of a cow?

0:03:35 > 0:03:36How about a horse?

0:03:36 > 0:03:41Or a cat?

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Well, a teenager in Ghana can do all of them and many more.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Listen to this...

0:03:46 > 0:03:54MAKES COCKEREL NOISE.

0:03:56 > 0:03:58Justice Osei discovered he had the unusual talent

0:03:58 > 0:03:59of copying animal noises.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01He can do about 50 different species, and is trying

0:04:01 > 0:04:04to get a world record.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07Now from one odd story to another - bananas and strawberries,

0:04:07 > 0:04:09which one would you say is a berry?

0:04:09 > 0:04:10The answer might surprise you.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13Here's this week Big Question.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15Right, what to have for lunch today.

0:04:15 > 0:04:16Hmm...

0:04:16 > 0:04:17Banana...

0:04:17 > 0:04:18A berry?

0:04:18 > 0:04:19What?!

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Excuse me, I think you'll find you've got your sign wrong.

0:04:22 > 0:04:23A banana isn't a berry.

0:04:23 > 0:04:24No, I think you'll find I haven't.

0:04:24 > 0:04:25What?!

0:04:25 > 0:04:28I'm so confused.

0:04:28 > 0:04:36This week's big question is...

0:04:36 > 0:04:38"How is a banana a berry, but a strawberry isn't?"

0:04:38 > 0:04:39I mean, what?!

0:04:39 > 0:04:40Let's ask an expert.

0:04:40 > 0:04:41Hi, I'm Gemma, and I'm a botanist.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43A botanist is a scientist who studies plants.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45Botanists call different fruit types different names.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49A banana is what we call a berry because this fleshy

0:04:49 > 0:04:53part contains the seeds.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55You might not even notice them when you eat them,

0:04:55 > 0:04:57because they're really tiny, but in wild bananas

0:04:57 > 0:05:00they're quite big.

0:05:00 > 0:05:05A strawberry, on the other hand, is not what we call a berry,

0:05:05 > 0:05:08because the seeds are on the outside of this fleshy red part,

0:05:08 > 0:05:10you can see them here.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13So there are fruits like strawberries and raspberries

0:05:13 > 0:05:16which we all think of as berries because that's what they've been

0:05:16 > 0:05:18called for hundreds of years.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21But if you want to get scientific, botanically speaking, a banana

0:05:21 > 0:05:27is a berry and strawberry isn't.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30And it turns out there are more unexpected berries,

0:05:30 > 0:05:32including kiwis, tomatoes, and even cucumbers.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34Well, there you have it.

0:05:34 > 0:05:42But if you ask me, it's all a bit bananas.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45Before we go this morning, we all know dogs love

0:05:45 > 0:05:48going for walkies - and they love it even more

0:05:48 > 0:05:50if there are lots of them!

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Almost 1000 tiny sausage dogs and their owners got together

0:05:52 > 0:05:58in Greenwich Park in London over the weekend.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Only on Newsround!

0:06:00 > 0:06:06We're back at 4.20pm.
