0:00:35 > 0:00:38First up, if you've been missing the football over the summer,

0:00:55 > 0:00:58We are in Utrecht, which is one of seven cities where games

0:00:58 > 0:01:01at Euro 2017 are being played.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04The stadium where England meet Scotland later is about a ten-minute

0:01:04 > 0:01:07drive away and just over there is one of the official

0:01:07 > 0:01:11fanzones, that's where supporters from all the different countries

0:01:11 > 0:01:15can meet up and watch the games on big TV screens.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18Tonight's match is a big one because, when it comes to football,

0:01:18 > 0:01:19England and Scotland don't really get on.

0:01:19 > 0:01:23There's a real big rivalry.

0:01:23 > 0:01:25Two players to look out for, Scotland's Jane Ross,

0:01:25 > 0:01:27she's a very good attacking player and could cause

0:01:27 > 0:01:28England some problems.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31For England, look out for defender and captain Steph Houghton.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33She takes a brilliant free kick.

0:01:33 > 0:01:38The game kicks off at 7:45pm.

0:01:38 > 0:01:42And you can go online for loads more information.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45A big clean-up is taking place today in Cornwall in the south-west

0:01:45 > 0:01:48of England after really heavy floods swept through the village

0:01:48 > 0:01:50of Coverack.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53People living there saw hailstones the size of 50 pence pieces,

0:01:53 > 0:01:56and some people even had to be lifted

0:01:56 > 0:01:58from their houses by helicopter.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Although there is a lot of cleaning up to do,

0:02:00 > 0:02:03luckily no-one has been hurt.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06When was the last time you spotted a butterfly in your garden?

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Well, one pretty famous man is on a mission to make sure

0:02:09 > 0:02:13there are more around, and he needs your help.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17Peacock, Red Admiral, Tortoise Shell.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20Just some of the UK's most common types of butterfly.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24Scientists say there are fewer and fewer around now.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Step in Sir Attenborough.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29He is president of a butterfly conservation charity and they just

0:02:29 > 0:02:33launched a big butterfly count.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37Last year was the fourth-worst year on record in terms of butterflies.

0:02:37 > 0:02:42But what people can do is to go into the garden or an open place,

0:02:42 > 0:02:47some sunny place, and start looking around for 15 minutes and tell us

0:02:47 > 0:02:51how many butterflies they saw and what type they were.

0:02:51 > 0:02:56Even if they don't see any at all, that's an important

0:02:56 > 0:02:58piece of information.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01And that will give us a lot of very valuable statistics

0:03:01 > 0:03:04to know what's happening.

0:03:04 > 0:03:08It is hoped that this year's warm weather could help

0:03:08 > 0:03:11the butterfly population bounce back.

0:03:11 > 0:03:12Have I seen any?

0:03:12 > 0:03:14No, it's a bit early, it's not warm enough.

0:03:14 > 0:03:15Butterflies like the warm weather.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18And when they come up, of course, they are very important

0:03:18 > 0:03:22because they actually fertilise plants, pollinate them.

0:03:22 > 0:03:25So hopefully you and Sir David will see more of these guys

0:03:25 > 0:03:27in the future.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Now, it's safe to say that Johanna Konta was

0:03:31 > 0:03:34one of the stand-out British players at Wimbledon this year.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37The 23-year-old become the first British woman to reach

0:03:37 > 0:03:41the Wimbledon singles semi finals in almost 40 years.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Ricky caught up with the history maker herself.

0:03:48 > 0:03:49CHEERING

0:03:49 > 0:03:52It's over.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54British tennis history is made.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57Wimbledon is more special, because it's home, it's my home slam.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00Not many tennis players get to say they have a home slam,

0:04:00 > 0:04:03so I feel very fortunate with that.

0:04:03 > 0:04:08It's been 39 years since a British woman can say,

0:04:08 > 0:04:11"I'm a Wimbledon semifinalist."

0:04:11 > 0:04:14I got to be a part of so many incredible matches, I got

0:04:14 > 0:04:15to have some epic battles.

0:04:15 > 0:04:20I got to play on Centre Court and Court One and to really

0:04:20 > 0:04:23play in front of a crowd that was so supportive

0:04:23 > 0:04:26and so excited for me.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31After an hour and 50 minutes, somehow, Johanna Konta

0:04:31 > 0:04:38has forced a final set.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41It's a fun sport to be a part of at whatever level.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44It's also a really social sport and you can do it with your friends,

0:04:44 > 0:04:47you can play with your family, so I think it does have a place

0:04:47 > 0:04:49in a lot of people's homes.

0:04:49 > 0:04:52And to another sporting success story.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54Some good news for England's cricket team, they reached

0:04:54 > 0:04:56the Women's World Cup final after a very exciting

0:04:56 > 0:04:58two-wicket win over South Africa in Bristol yesterday.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Let's see the moment they won.

0:05:02 > 0:05:06Two to win.

0:05:06 > 0:05:07And the first ball short.

0:05:07 > 0:05:12They'll now face Australia or India in Sunday's final.

0:05:12 > 0:05:13Now to an amazing story.

0:05:13 > 0:05:15Zion is a ten-year-old boy from America who was born

0:05:15 > 0:05:20with two hands, but when he was aged just two, doctors had

0:05:20 > 0:05:25to amputate them because he had a really serious infection.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27But 18 months ago, at the age of eight,

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Zion became the youngest person in the world to have

0:05:30 > 0:05:33a double hand transplant - giving him two new hands.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36He is making brilliant progress.

0:05:36 > 0:05:42Now I can get myself dressed without anybody helping me.

0:05:42 > 0:05:47Now I can get a snack out of the refrigerator

0:05:47 > 0:05:50without anybody helping me.

0:05:50 > 0:05:58I can heat up a sandwich and a piece of pizza all by myself.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01That's it from the morning team, we're back at 4:20pm.

0:06:08 > 0:06:12Hello, and... It's me, Hacker, the dog from the telly!
