Afternoon, Newsrounders. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:04 | |
You're live with me Martin and some of this on the way. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
How to save a Tasmanian devil from extinction. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:12 | |
Plus why popstar Adele is wearing a disguise. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:16 | |
But first to the latest on what's been happening in France's | 0:00:33 | 0:00:33 | |
capital city, Paris. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:37 | |
It's a week since a series of attacks there. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
They were carried out by the extremist group Islamic State | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
and today world leaders meeting at the United Nations have agreed | 0:00:41 | 0:00:44 | |
a plan to try do everything possible to stop further attacks. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
Now loads of you have sent us questions this | 0:00:47 | 0:00:48 | |
week asking about what happened in Paris and what it all means. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:52 | |
So I took them to the BBC's expert on this subject, security | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
correspondent, Frank Gardner. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:55 | |
So, first off, Aditya and Jessica and actually a lot of other people | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
are asking why did Islamic State want to attack France? | 0:00:58 | 0:01:03 | |
The answer that so-called Islamic State have given is that | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
it's in retaliation, in revenge, for the French bombing | 0:01:06 | 0:01:10 | |
of their positions in Syria. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:14 | |
But the French are doing that to try and protect the local population. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
Cara, who's eight, says, what are the soldiers and policemen doing | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
to keep the people in Paris safe? | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
Cara, I think the main point of the soldiers and police | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
on the streets is to try and reassure the public, but also to | 0:01:28 | 0:01:33 | |
put off any terrorists who might think of maybe attacking again. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:40 | |
And when they see the police with guns, hopefully, | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
they won't want to attack. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
That's the main purpose of it. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:47 | |
So Victoria, who's 10, says, is it likely that the UK will get attacked | 0:01:47 | 0:01:51 | |
and if so, are we prepared for it? | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
That's something Liam, Hazel, Tana and lots of other kids have | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
been asking as well. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
There have been a number of attempted attacks, people trying | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
to do attacks in this country. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
Nothing like as big or horrific as Paris, but smaller and still | 0:02:04 | 0:02:09 | |
nasty attacks which the police and the spies have been able to stop. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:14 | |
But they say sooner or later there is a chance that | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
something might get through. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
What I would say is this, though. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
The chances of you or me or any of your friends being caught up | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
in it are very, very small. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
Tiny, in fact. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
Yes, there is a high chance there will be an attack somewhere | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
in Britain of some sort. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
Probably quite small, but the chances of you being caught | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
up in it or involved in it are very, very small indeed | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
so don't change your way of life. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
You can see Frank answering more questions on the Newsround website | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
and there's lots more on what's happening in Paris. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
Plus help and advice if anything in the news upsets you. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:52 | |
Now, the Premier League is back following the international break | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
and, in the early kick-off, Watford are taking on Manchester United with | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
the score currently 1-0 to Man U. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:02 | |
Later today, all eyes will be on the match | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
between Liverpool and Manchester City, when ex-Liverpool striker | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
Raheem Sterling comes up against his old club for the first time | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
since leaving them in the summer. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
I always think there is a pressure for the player to play against, not | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
only for Raheem, for every player to play a team they were at a lot | 0:03:17 | 0:03:22 | |
of years and maybe for James Milner it would be exactly the same. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:28 | |
It's part of the career of the player, another defending, | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
another shirt. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
Now to a special wildlife project to try and save one | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
of the world's most famous animals. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:38 | |
Tasmanian Devils live on an island off the coast of Australia but it's | 0:03:38 | 0:03:41 | |
taken lots of hard work to try and keep them from going extinct. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:47 | |
The Tasmanian devil. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
It can grow as long as 76 centimetres. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
But they are under threat from a deadly cancer that has | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
threatened them with extinction. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
The disease has caused the population of devils to crash | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
to 10,000 from an estimated 250,000 when the disease was first | 0:03:59 | 0:04:04 | |
discovered nearly 20 years ago. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
What happens is, it's transferred simply by touch, so the devil's | 0:04:07 | 0:04:12 | |
natural feeding behaviour and mating behaviour, whenever they | 0:04:12 | 0:04:16 | |
come into contact with each other, this disease can be transmitted, | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
and, thus the rapid decline. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:23 | |
It is a very nasty disease. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
After three months, we see symptoms. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:27 | |
After six months, those devils are gone. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:31 | |
But there is hope. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:33 | |
A group of 22 disease-free captive creatures have been flown 250 | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
kilometres from Sydney to their natural habitat in Tasmania. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:43 | |
They were then released into bushland, | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
surrounded by fencing to help protect them from any wild Tasmanian | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
devils infected with the disease. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
The project currently has 180 Tasmanian devils in the programme, | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
making it the largest captive population in Australia. | 0:04:55 | 0:05:01 | |
It's hoped if this first reintroduction is | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
successful, more of these endangered animals can be released to help save | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
the future of the species. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
Now, finally, the singer Adele has auditioned as herself | 0:05:10 | 0:05:12 | |
for a special BBC programme. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
Everyone else there thought they were competing in an Adele | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
sing-a-like contest but the star herself donned | 0:05:18 | 0:05:22 | |
a disguise and pretended her name was Jenny to take part. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
It was all for a special show about her. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:29 | |
And it didn't take long for the other contestants to work | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
out what was going on. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
# When the rain is blowing in your face | 0:05:33 | 0:05:37 | |
# And the whole world is... # | 0:05:37 | 0:05:43 | |
You are joking me? | 0:05:43 | 0:05:47 | |
# I could offer you a warm embrace... # | 0:05:47 | 0:05:52 | |
That's it for today. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
We're back tomorrow at 10. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:55 | |
Bye! | 0:05:55 | 0:05:58 |
