:00:25. > :00:28.First, a major international meeting to try and sort out a peace

:00:29. > :00:33.agreement in Syria is back on after it was nearly cancelled. Civil war

:00:34. > :00:36.has been raging in Syria for nearly three years between government

:00:37. > :00:39.forces and the people who want them out of power. Syrian opposition

:00:40. > :00:43.groups had threatened to pull out of the talks after the head of the

:00:44. > :00:46.United Nations invited Iran to join in. Iran supports the Syrian leader

:00:47. > :00:49.President Assad. Now, the UN has withdrawn Iran's invitation, so the

:00:50. > :00:54.talks should still go ahead tomorrow.

:00:55. > :00:57.Yesterday we told you about an attempt to wake a sleeping

:00:58. > :01:00.spacecraft ahead of a daring mission to land on a speeding comet.

:01:01. > :01:05.Scientists faced a nervous wait to see if it worked. Well, yes, it woke

:01:06. > :01:11.up. It sent back a simple message saying, "Hello, World". So now it is

:01:12. > :01:15.ready to speed off for an encounter with a rocky ice-ball, to try and

:01:16. > :01:21.find out how water came to our planet.

:01:22. > :01:26.We could definitely see the signal, it is up there. You can see it on

:01:27. > :01:34.the screen. It is a big success for everybody. Now it is up to us to

:01:35. > :01:36.drive it to be cobbled. -- the comet.

:01:37. > :01:41.Toys - you probably can't get enough of them, but last year the number of

:01:42. > :01:44.toys sold in the UK went down. So, what are toymakers doing to turn

:01:45. > :01:48.things around this year? Well, BBC business reporter Steph McGovern is

:01:49. > :01:52.at a huge toy fair in London and might be able to shed some light on

:01:53. > :01:54.it. She sent us this report this morning.

:01:55. > :01:57.Welcome to the UK's biggest toy fair. There are 280 companies with

:01:58. > :02:01.all of their products here. We sold about 364 billion toys last year,

:02:02. > :02:06.which works out at about 38 toys for every single child in the country.

:02:07. > :02:10.But can you believe we are not spending as much money as we have

:02:11. > :02:14.done in the past, and it is because we are not spending money on what we

:02:15. > :02:20.call "pocket money toys", things worth less than ?5. We are saving up

:02:21. > :02:27.our money and spending them on bigger toys like the one behind me.

:02:28. > :02:39.Have a look at this doll. She talks and you can ask her questions. What

:02:40. > :02:46.is the BBC? Hmm. That is a tough one. I don't know. But I would like

:02:47. > :02:49.another chance. As you can see there are tonnes of different toys here,

:02:50. > :02:53.cars, pianos that make music, raspberry outfits you can dress up

:02:54. > :03:01.in, and it certainly is full of lots of different toys. They hope this

:03:02. > :03:06.will help the industry to do better this year.

:03:07. > :03:11.And we want to know what you think about this. Here is what you have

:03:12. > :03:30.been saying. Thank you for all of those comments,

:03:31. > :03:32.keep them coming. In tennis, 19-year-old Eugenie

:03:33. > :03:38.Buchard is through to the semifinal of the Australian Open after pulling

:03:39. > :03:41.off an unlikely victory. Buchard won against Ana Ivanovic in a three-set

:03:42. > :03:46.thriller and will now face Li Na in the semis. The teenager is the first

:03:47. > :03:47.Canadian to get to this stage in the Open.

:03:48. > :03:51.Reigning men's champion Novak Djokovic is due on court in a few

:03:52. > :03:54.minutes' time for his quarterfinal against Stanislas Wawrinka. The

:03:55. > :03:57.winner of that match will play Czech Republic's Tomas Berdych, after he

:03:58. > :04:09.beat David Ferrer just a few minutes ago, fighting off a comeback from

:04:10. > :04:12.the Spaniard to win in four sets. Jamaica's bobsleigh team have

:04:13. > :04:15.qualified for a place at the Sochi Games next month. The sun-kissed

:04:16. > :04:18.Caribbean country first competed in Olympic bobsledding in 1988 but

:04:19. > :04:21.crashed out on their final run. It later inspired a movie called Cool

:04:22. > :04:24.Runnings. It will be the third Winter Games for Jamaica.

:04:25. > :04:27.Last up, something you definitely don't see every day... Dancing air

:04:28. > :04:30.crews! That's right. These flight attendants at Shanghai Airport took

:04:31. > :04:33.holiday entertainment to a whole new level when they decided to surprise

:04:34. > :04:40.travellers by busting some hip hop moves in the terminal to celebrate

:04:41. > :04:45.Chinese New Year. You are unlikely to find cowboys on

:04:46. > :04:51.ski slopes, right? You do in Colorado in America. Over 100 after

:04:52. > :04:55.the slopes. They had to race down the gates and even survived a few

:04:56. > :05:00.jumps, too. By the look of things, they handled it pretty well.

:05:01. > :05:01.These are is back later this afternoon,
