Hi, guys, Ayshah here with all the latest from the Newsround team. On

the way: We see how they're preparing for the Glasgow

:00:11.:00:12.

Commonwealth Games on the other side of the world.

:00:13.:00:15.

Plus the sculpture that's got more to it than meets the eye. This is

:00:16.:00:23.

Newsround! First, though, to Ukraine in Eastern

:00:24.:00:26.

Europe, where there's been more violent protests overnight. Some

:00:27.:00:30.

people there are angry at the government for refusing to join the

:00:31.:00:33.

European Union, something they think could make their lives better.

:00:34.:00:36.

Protest leaders told crowds they would go on the attack again if the

:00:37.:00:39.

country's president didn't start listening. Yesterday two people died

:00:40.:00:41.

in clashes with police. Next, details of more cuts to

:00:42.:00:55.

Britain's armed forces will be announced later today with 1,400

:00:56.:00:58.

soldiers expected to lose their jobs. It's the fourth round of cuts

:00:59.:01:01.

by the Government, who want to reduce the number of soldiers from

:01:02.:01:09.

102,000 to just over 80,000. Moving on, the biggest names in TV

:01:10.:01:13.

were out in force last night. Ant and Dec were the biggest winners at

:01:14.:01:17.

the National Television Awards, but there were also prizes for some of

:01:18.:01:20.

your other favourite shows. It was a star-studded celebration at

:01:21.:01:24.

the O2 Arena last night. Everybody's favourite Time Lord

:01:25.:01:30.

scooped two awards. The time travelling adventure show picked up

:01:31.:01:35.

the best drama prize, and Matt Smith won an award for best drama

:01:36.:01:40.

performance. The shill -- show is still going strong after 50 years. I

:01:41.:01:46.

know. It still seems to be taking off like a rocket. It is an

:01:47.:01:54.

incredible thing, 50 years on. It is very special. Strictly won the prize

:01:55.:02:06.

for best talent show. And it was a bumper night for a -- Ant and Dec.

:02:07.:02:14.

They won best entertainers for 13th year in a row. And you can get a

:02:15.:02:22.

full rundown of the big winners from the National TV awards in our

:02:23.:02:31.

picture gallery on the web. It's just six months to go before

:02:32.:02:35.

the start of the Commonwealth Games. The Queen's Baton Relay has been

:02:36.:02:38.

making its way to all the nations and territories of the Commonwealth

:02:39.:02:41.

in the build up. BBC Presenter Mark Beaumont has been following the

:02:42.:02:45.

baton on its journey. Today he's joining us from number 30 on that

:02:46.:02:48.

route, the Seychelles, a group of islands in the Indian Ocean.

:02:49.:02:52.

Our people excited by the games in the Seychelles? Absolutely. The

:02:53.:02:59.

reception has been fantastic, as it has been everywhere I have been on

:03:00.:03:02.

this exciting journey around the Commonwealth. Yesterday the bats and

:03:03.:03:07.

went around the capital island here to tens of schools. This morning it

:03:08.:03:13.

went scuba-diving. It was taken underneath the water. I am with

:03:14.:03:18.

Felicity, 14-year-old swimmer who is coming to Glasgow this summer. First

:03:19.:03:23.

of all, what was it like to carry the Batten? I was really excited and

:03:24.:03:31.

proud to represent my country. The crowd was just cheering and going

:03:32.:03:36.

wild. They were, it was not. What is it like to represent... It seems we

:03:37.:03:50.

have a little bit of trouble on that line, which is such a shame. Oh,

:03:51.:04:03.

sorry about that. I apologise. Good stuff from Mark but hopefully we can

:04:04.:04:08.

hear from him later in the journey. In football, Manchester United might

:04:09.:04:11.

be on the verge of signing Juan Mata from Chelsea but on the pitch their

:04:12.:04:16.

troubles continued last night. They lost the second leg of their league

:04:17.:04:19.

cup semifinal to Sunderland on penalties. It was an incredible

:04:20.:04:30.

story. You could make a book out of the game today. For the fans it was

:04:31.:04:37.

a great night. We didn't play well enough tonight. Sunderland played

:04:38.:04:46.

well. Finally, there's lots of things you

:04:47.:04:50.

can make with paper, but how about this? Chinese artist Li Hongbo made

:04:51.:04:53.

these sculptures from thousands of sheets of paper. They appear firm at

:04:54.:04:56.

first, until this happens. They transform into very weird and

:04:57.:04:58.

wonderful shapes when stretched, almost like a slinky!

:04:59.:05:01.

That's all from me. Martin's here at

:05:02.:05:02.
