:00:21. > :00:24.First up, have you ever dreamt of showing off your footballing
:00:25. > :00:29.Well, for some lucky schoolkids, that dream is about to come true,
:00:30. > :00:32.because in a few hours' time pupils representing all 20 Premier League
:00:33. > :00:35.teams will compete in the finals of the Premier League schools
:00:36. > :00:38.It's all taking place at the Etihad Stadium,
:00:39. > :00:51.the home of Manchester City, and Martin is there for us now.
:00:52. > :01:00.Just behind me, revelations are well underway for the Premier league
:01:01. > :01:12.schools tournament, hosted by champions Manchester city. But today
:01:13. > :01:20.is about the clubs being the presented by children, over 10,000
:01:21. > :01:28.children from 1300 schools have played in regional tournaments to
:01:29. > :01:34.play in these finals here. Her big day for the children. These are the
:01:35. > :01:41.top 20 teams that have won the right to play on this pitch. You have got
:01:42. > :01:48.Premier league referees in charge. The children will walk through the
:01:49. > :01:55.same entrance, use the dressing rooms and come out on the pitch to
:01:56. > :02:00.the Premier league anthem. And what else is up for grabs? At huge prize,
:02:01. > :02:06.a mini replica of the Premier league trophy. That is amazing. I want the

:02:22. > :02:24.tournament later this afternoon. Good luck if you're playing today.
:02:25. > :02:26.Next up, we're talking mummies: have you ever wondered what's
:02:27. > :02:29.lurking beneath those bandages? Well, the British Museum has used
:02:30. > :02:31.ground-breaking techniques to reveal amazing details
:02:32. > :02:34.about the people inside them. Using a state-of-the-art CT scanner,
:02:35. > :02:37.scientists were able to discover the mummies' age,
:02:38. > :02:39.what they ate and how they died. The BBC's Pallab Ghosh has
:02:40. > :02:41.been to unravel the mystery. This is how we're used to seeing
:02:42. > :02:45.mummies, entombed in their burial caskets.
:02:46. > :02:48.The CT scans enable us to see right through the casket
:02:49. > :02:51.and even through the bandages. Here's the body
:02:52. > :02:55.of a 40-year-old woman buried with her precious amulets.
:02:56. > :03:01.It's the first time that this has been seen for 4,000 years.
:03:02. > :03:03.The aim of the study is to learn more about the people underneath
:03:04. > :03:07.the bandages and, in a sense, bring the mummies back to life.
:03:08. > :03:11.Next to a massive new study on how mobile phones affect your brain:
:03:12. > :03:14.it's thought that around 70% of 11- and 12-year-olds own a phone.
:03:15. > :03:18.The Government's Department for Health hope to recruit 2,500
:03:19. > :03:20.children to take part in the research.
:03:21. > :03:23.They want to find out more about how phones affect thinking
:03:24. > :03:28.Thousands of secondary-school children are setting off for special
:03:29. > :03:32.tours of battlefields in Belgium and France to remember the hundredth
:03:33. > :03:37.It's all part of a government programme designed to help teachers
:03:38. > :03:40.and students understand the conflict and to encourage them to share
:03:41. > :03:45.Sport, and Manchester United's players are
:03:46. > :03:49.being warned that life will be tough under new manager Louis Van Gaal.
:03:50. > :03:51.The Dutchman was revealed as the new boss yesterday
:03:52. > :03:56.He has managed Ajax, Barcelona and Bayern Munich and has vowed to
:03:57. > :04:01.Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is looking forward to seeing him
:04:02. > :04:08.He deserves this, because his career was a fantastic career.
:04:09. > :04:12.And to come now for the first time to England and for a
:04:13. > :04:17.club like Man United, I think it's something that his career deserves.
:04:18. > :04:20.And I think for the Premier League, for him to come
:04:21. > :04:27.Sao Paulo, the country's largest city, where the World Cup kicks
:04:28. > :04:30.off in a matter of weeks, was hit by an unusually heavy hailstorm.
:04:31. > :04:32.The hailstones covered the streets like snow,
:04:33. > :04:36.and loads of people decided to take pictures and even play in the ice.
:04:37. > :04:46.The hail left many roads flooded or coated white.
:04:47. > :04:49.Next to the noisy new arrival at the Science Museum in London:
:04:50. > :04:54.It's the largest horn speaker in the UK and was built 80 years ago.
:04:55. > :04:56.The instrument took eight months to restore.
:04:57. > :04:59.a little different from the tiny speakers in your smart devices!
