Hello, welcome to Newsround. Sonali and Hayley here with all Friday's

:00:19.:00:22.

news. Here's what's on the way today.

:00:22.:00:25.

The most famous frock in the world - Kate's wedding dress goes on

:00:26.:00:28.

display. And why scientists are excited

:00:28.:00:33.

about this monkey picking its toes. But first to some breaking news

:00:33.:00:36.

from Norway, where there's been a large explosion in the capital,

:00:36.:00:40.

Oslo. It happened in the last couple of hours next to some

:00:40.:00:43.

government buildings. These pictures were taken on someone's

:00:43.:00:47.

mobile phone and show the damage caused. We know that at least two

:00:47.:00:52.

people have died and eight people have been injured. The police there

:00:52.:00:55.

say they think it was a bomb, but nobody's claimed responsibility for

:00:55.:01:01.

it yet. We'll keep you updated on this later on the CBBC Channel.

:01:01.:01:04.

Next, we're talking about the famine in Somalia. One in three

:01:04.:01:07.

children there are malnourished - sick because they don't have enough

:01:07.:01:12.

food. Many are likely to die if they don't get help. The situation

:01:12.:01:15.

is made worse by fighting there that's gone on for years. The

:01:16.:01:18.

country is so dangerous, it's difficult to get aid in and very

:01:19.:01:22.

few journalists ever go there to find out what it's like. But one

:01:22.:01:25.

BBC reporter, Will Ross, HAS just been to Somalia. Here's what he

:01:25.:01:35.
:01:35.:01:38.

To move in Mogadishu you need men with guns. And plenty of them. The

:01:38.:01:41.

Burundi and peace keepers got ready to drive me to the outskirts of

:01:41.:01:47.

this battered capital. In heavily armoured vehicles, we passed

:01:47.:01:51.

through the government controlled areas where despite the war,

:01:51.:01:58.

businesses still booming. But the landscape is changing, almost every

:01:58.:02:02.

open space we passed was filled with makeshift shelters, the homes

:02:02.:02:12.
:02:12.:02:13.

for those fleeing the drought and Despite only being 400 metres from

:02:13.:02:20.

the front line, thousands are still pouring into this camp. Setting up

becomes clear once we have reached the clinic. Mothers queue,

children. When Sophia had absolutely no food or water in her

:02:46.:02:51.

village in the south, she caught a ride to Mogadishu on the back of

:02:51.:02:56.

her lorry -- a lorry with her five children. They keep coming. In the

:02:56.:03:01.

last nine days, this clinic alone has seen well over 1,000 severely

:03:01.:03:06.

malnourished children. The aid workers are struggling to cope. The

:03:06.:03:10.

hardest part will be getting food deep into the areas held by al-

:03:10.:03:16.

Qaeda Link rebels. With war and now a famine spreading, this is a

:03:16.:03:20.

daunting challenge. And the latest news from Somalia is

:03:20.:03:23.

that the United Nations is going to fly planes over the country to get

:03:23.:03:26.

food to people they haven't been able to reach before. Reports of

:03:26.:03:30.

the famine can be upsetting - if you find anything in the news is

:03:30.:03:32.

bothering you, there's advice on the Newsround website for how to

:03:32.:03:35.

deal with it. Next to a heatwave that's spreading

:03:35.:03:40.

over America and Canada right now. 22 people have died because of the

:03:40.:03:45.

extreme temperatures which, because it's humid, feel up to 46 degrees.

:03:45.:03:48.

Temporary fountains have been set up in city centres and policemen

:03:48.:03:52.

have been stationed at some outdoor pools to deal with the crowds. It

:03:52.:03:56.

should be cooler there by the weekend.

:03:56.:04:00.

If you're not a fan of Royals or big frocks, look away now! Yep, you

:04:00.:04:04.

may have thought the Royal Wedding was just one day of the year, but

:04:04.:04:07.

almost three months later, interest in that big day is still going

:04:07.:04:10.

strong. That's why over half a million people have already signed

:04:10.:04:13.

up to have a look at Kate's dress when it goes on display at

:04:13.:04:17.

Buckingham Palace from tomorrow. Can't wait? We've got the deets

:04:17.:04:20.

right here. It was the moment it seemed the

:04:20.:04:23.

whole country was waiting for - the first sight of the dress that

:04:23.:04:26.

transformed plain old Kate Middleton into the Duchess of

:04:26.:04:33.

Cambridge. And now you can take a close up gaze at the gorgeous gown.

:04:33.:04:37.

It cost a quarter of a million pounds to make, but you get a lot

:04:37.:04:41.

of dress for that. Made from material called satin gazar, don't

:04:41.:04:44.

you know, it has 58 buttons from the collar to the waist and hand

:04:44.:04:50.

stitched flowers cover the silk veil. Not enough for you? Well,

:04:50.:04:53.

Kate's shoes are also on display. The size five-and-a-halfs were

:04:53.:04:57.

covered by her dress on the day so now's your chance to have a proper

:04:57.:05:02.

snoop. And remember this? This little number, a tiara, was lent to

:05:02.:05:06.

the Duchess by the Queen. Now you can see just how sparkly 1,000

:05:06.:05:11.

diamonds really are. And last but not least, the wedding cake. Yep,

:05:11.:05:15.

the actual wedding cake. The top three layers have been replaced

:05:15.:05:18.

because two were saved and one was eaten, but the rest of the eight-

:05:18.:05:23.

layer monster is on display. Which we think, let's be honest, is just

:05:23.:05:28.

a little bit weird! And we're not done with the world

:05:28.:05:31.

of fashion yet. Or royalty. Because some Newsround viewers have been

:05:31.:05:35.

hanging out in a palace and doing a bit of fashion designing themselves.

:05:35.:05:39.

It's all part of a big project to get kids to think about making

:05:39.:05:44.

their own clothes. Here's press packer William.

:05:45.:05:49.

My name is William and I am here to see my design come to life on the

:05:49.:05:54.

catwalk. I got into contact with Kensington Palace to make a dress

:05:54.:06:01.

or jackets. I decided to make a dress. We were given instructions

:06:01.:06:08.

to include pearls, sequins, ribbons and feathers. I based it around the

:06:08.:06:14.

environment and recycling. The colours are more earth than normal

:06:14.:06:19.

royal dresses and the coin represents the Queen. I used a lot

:06:19.:06:24.

of inspiration from Lady GaGa. The thing that inspired me about Lady

:06:24.:06:29.

GaGa was how her mind works, it is so creative and so unique to

:06:29.:06:39.
:06:39.:06:41.

The Duchess of Cornwall has seen my design in she said it was very

:06:41.:06:46.

creative and she liked it. Today has been a great day, I chatted to

:06:46.:06:49.

the Duchess of Cornwall and have seen my designs come alive on the

:06:49.:06:52.

catwalk. What are you doing? Oh, I hate it

:06:53.:06:58.

when you get dirt under your nails. You're like this monkey. This

:06:58.:07:01.

mandrill has been filmed at Chester Zoo cleaning the dirt from its

:07:01.:07:06.

toenails! It's not just a pedicure story, it's also a big discovery.

:07:06.:07:09.

It's using a carved stick to do the cleaning and until now scientists

:07:09.:07:13.

didn't think monkeys like madrills were clever enough to use tools!
