Good afternoon. You are tuned into Tuesday's Newsround. On the way:

:00:11.:00:15.

I'm one of the guys. I don't get treated any differently. Prince

:00:15.:00:20.

Harry opens up about life in the Army. Stayed chilled - snow days

:00:21.:00:26.

continue for many. This cat isn't so sure. This is

:00:26.:00:32.

Newsround. First to Afghanistan where Prince

:00:32.:00:35.

Harry's given an incredible snapshot of his life in the Army.

:00:35.:00:40.

For five months, he's been working as a helicopter pilot, but he's now

:00:40.:00:44.

left the country. In a rare in- depth interview, he shows us where

:00:44.:00:49.

he's been living and talks about his Army work and how she shot at

:00:49.:00:53.

enemy Taliban fighters. UK troops have been in Afghanistan for over

:00:53.:00:57.

ten years and were originally sent to defeat the Taliban who Britain

:00:57.:01:00.

and America thought were protecting terrorists who attacked the USA.

:01:00.:01:06.

Since then, 440 British troops and thousands of Afghans have died and

:01:06.:01:10.

the war continues. To keep Harry and his colleagues safe, the

:01:10.:01:14.

interview is only being shown now he's left the country. He wears the

:01:14.:01:17.

same uniform as everyone else, eats the same food and puts his life on

:01:17.:01:21.

the line like others. The man the Army calls Captain Wales can never

:01:21.:01:29.

quite escape the fact he's a prince. For me, it's not that normal

:01:29.:01:32.

because everyone has a good old gawp. That's one thing I dislike

:01:32.:01:37.

about being here. There are plenty of guys that have never met me,

:01:37.:01:42.

they look at me as a prince, rather than Captain Wales. This tent is

:01:42.:01:51.

what Harry calls home. This is my bed. That's it - made! Prince Harry

:01:51.:01:54.

was forced to leave Afghanistan early because some newspapers

:01:54.:01:57.

revealed he was there. It could have made the people and those

:01:57.:02:01.

around him a target. This time he agreed to be interviewed if the

:02:01.:02:07.

press was quiet. Being pulled out ot that point, being dragged away

:02:07.:02:12.

from the guys, it wasn't done in the wrong way but it was just...

:02:12.:02:16.

When Army work calls, he drops everything. As you can see, Prince

:02:16.:02:21.

Harry was well and truly in the thick of it during his time in

:02:21.:02:25.

Afghanistan,working as a gunner on an Apache, supporting fellow troops

:02:25.:02:28.

on the ground during dangerous missions and firing against the

:02:28.:02:31.

Taliban when necessary. He's the first member of the Royal

:02:31.:02:36.

Family to be involved in military action since his uncle Prince

:02:36.:02:40.

Andrew who fought during the Falklands in the 1980s. On his

:02:40.:02:43.

return to the UK, being an uncle himself is one thing he's looking

:02:43.:02:48.

forward to. I'm thrilled for both of them. It's about time and I

:02:48.:02:53.

can't wait to be an uncle. This tour is likely to be the last time

:02:53.:02:57.

Harry will serve there and he admits he's not sure how long he'll

:02:57.:03:03.

stay there. Whether he remains Captain Wales or returns to being

:03:03.:03:08.

Prince Harry. Moving on, another snowy day and schools staying

:03:08.:03:13.

closed. The snow is still hanging around and hundreds of schools

:03:13.:03:16.

remain closed. Let's take a trip around the

:03:16.:03:21.

country to see what is going on with the help of some BBC reporters.

:03:21.:03:24.

These conditions could be pretty bewildering for parents. For

:03:24.:03:28.

example, the school behind me is open today. The children are in

:03:28.:03:31.

their classrooms. Just 200 yards away on the other side of the

:03:31.:03:34.

playground, the neighbouring school's shut.

:03:34.:03:39.

This part of the country, today is all about the big dig. The snow's

:03:39.:03:43.

largely stopped falling, but this is a very typical scene, helped on

:03:43.:03:48.

by Max the Dog and this couple trying to get their car out.

:03:48.:03:52.

were here yesterday. There was snow and now we can show you there's a

:03:52.:03:56.

lot more and the difference between today and yesterday, it's

:03:56.:04:02.

constantly coming down today, really blizzardly coming down.

:04:02.:04:06.

warm guys! The latest Comic Relief celeb challenge has been reveal and

:04:06.:04:16.
:04:16.:04:17.

it's tough. Greg James and Chelsee Healey will brave the river in

:04:17.:04:23.

Africa. Something fishy coming up at 6.50. Leah has the lowdown.

:04:23.:04:29.

We are at the fishmongers. We have sea bass and mackerel. I'm here

:04:29.:04:33.

fishing out the facts on a story that there are warnings we should

:04:33.:04:39.

be eating less of a certain type of fish. Find out about that at 6.50.

:04:39.:04:43.

Second thoughts, where do I get some chips for my fish?! Oh, yes, I

:04:43.:04:47.

could do with some. Finally, this is why the Internet was created, so

:04:47.:04:51.

we could watch clips of cats doing silly things in the snow. This is

:04:51.:04:55.
