See you. | 0:00:00 | 0:00:02 | |
Good morning to you, it's Monday and I'm Ayshah | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
with all of these great stories coming your way. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
We meet the musical family where absolutely everyone plays something. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:13 | |
And we check out the Formula One of the ice-skating world. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:16 | |
UK Prime Minister Theresa May will go to America this week to meet | 0:00:26 | 0:00:30 | |
Donald Trump to talk about how the countries will work together. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:34 | |
But it's been a tricky first weekend in the job for President Trump. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
His team have argued with the media over the size of the crowds | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |
who watched his inauguration. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:41 | |
Photos show large empty spaces when compared | 0:00:41 | 0:00:43 | |
to Barack Obama's inaguration, but Mr Trump says the crowd was much | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
larger than the media says and they aren't being fair to him. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:55 | |
The weekend also saw millions of people in America and around | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
the world protesting against Donald Trump. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
They were marching to show their support for a number of issues, | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
including gender equality and gay rights, which they say | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
they don't think Donald Trump will do enough to protect. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:15 | |
Now, some of you might play musical instruments, | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
but can you imagine coming from a home where everyone | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
is a top musician? | 0:01:19 | 0:01:23 | |
I play the violin. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
I play the cello. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:26 | |
I play the piano. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:27 | |
I play the violin. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:27 | |
I play the cello. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:32 | |
Meet the Kanneh-Mason family. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
They're all, you've guessed it, pretty musical. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
You guys come from a really musical family, don't you? | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
Yes. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:41 | |
Tell me a little bit about it. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
It's busy, and exciting. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:45 | |
It can be very noisy, and it can be kind of annoying when you wake up. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:54 | |
I'm rather used to it, when you always wake up | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
and I can always hear a noise and the sound of music. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
What do you love about music, and why? | 0:02:00 | 0:02:09 | |
I love music because it just has a lovely nice sound | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
with every instrument. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
What I love about music is the fact that everyone is different, it's not | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
like maths where the answer's always the same. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
What is it like, you all play musical instruments, | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
what is it like to play as a group? | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
When we all get together it's really nice, it's just really | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
noisy and I like that. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:29 | |
It's really nice playing with siblings because it's easy | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
to tell them what to do without putting it into | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
words, they just kind of know what to do next. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
You just look at people... | 0:02:37 | 0:02:38 | |
Yeah, and they just know what to do! | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
I couldn't leave this musical home without asking them | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
for one special request. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:46 | |
Would you play the Newsround theme music? | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
THEY PLAY THE "NEWSROUND" THEME. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:59 | |
Not bad, guys, not bad. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:09 | |
Now, to a sport that is the Formula 1 of the ice skating world - | 0:03:09 | 0:03:14 | |
long-track speed skating. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:15 | |
Great Britain dominated the sport around 100 years ago, | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
however as time went on the sport has almost died out here in the UK. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:21 | |
But BBC reporter Mike Bushell has been to check out | 0:03:21 | 0:03:28 | |
the new home for GB speed skating in the Netherlands. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
The frozen Fens in east England was the home of a traditional form | 0:03:30 | 0:03:33 | |
of ice skating called track speed skating, where people would race | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
each other on a frozen lake around a long track, | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
a test of speed and endurance. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:40 | |
However, in recent years the temperatures have risen | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
and the Fens rarely freeze over, meaning people can't skate on them. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
This meant the popularity of track speed skating dropped in the UK. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
However, here in the Netherlands, it's booming. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
And some of the UK's best long-track speed skaters are now training | 0:03:52 | 0:03:56 | |
here at this giant arena for their competitions. | 0:03:56 | 0:04:00 | |
So who better to try out this cool new sport than the BBC's | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
very own Mike Bushell? | 0:04:03 | 0:04:04 | |
And what's the point if you don't have the right | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
clothing for the job, hey? | 0:04:07 | 0:04:08 | |
Looking good, buddy! | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
Let's find out why people enjoy speed skating. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
I feel like I'm part of the wind! | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
The first couple of steps you really need to be explosive, | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
really get that speed up, because then the second bit | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
you can really accelerate on and really finish your stride. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
It's hoped that top facilities like this will encourage more people | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
to try out long-track speed skating. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
I love your style, Mike, but maybe leave it to the professionals! | 0:04:31 | 0:04:39 | |
Join me in half-an-hour and I'll show you the super-cool tools | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
the Dubai firefighters use in their jobs, including jetpacks! | 0:04:42 | 0:04:49 | |
It | 0:04:49 | 0:04:49 | |
It is | 0:04:49 | 0:04:49 | |
It is unbelievable. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:49 | |
It is unbelievable. See | 0:04:49 | 0:04:50 | |
It is unbelievable. See you | 0:04:50 | 0:04:50 | |
It is unbelievable. See you soon. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:55 | |
How many Blue Peter presenters does it take to change a light bulb? | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
No, that doesn't really work. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:05 | |
Why did the Blue Peter presenter cross the road? | 0:05:05 | 0:05:08 | |
Er...to get closer to you? | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 |
