Ricky here with some great stories this Tuesday.

:00:11.:00:15.

First, a baby gorilla's been born with help from a maternity

:00:16.:00:18.

It's thought to be the first time such a baby animal's survived

:00:19.:00:22.

This man has delivered hundreds of babies, but now

:00:23.:00:29.

Professor David Carhill has delivered something original.

:00:30.:00:35.

This newborn baby gorilla is tiny and very hairy!

:00:36.:00:39.

Bristol Zoo asked for help from the local maternity hospital

:00:40.:00:42.

He had to carry out a three-hour operation to get

:00:43.:00:47.

I've helped lots of babies, but this one was quite special

:00:48.:00:56.

because even though it was quite small, it had a really strong grip.

:00:57.:00:59.

It looked it me with those kind of weird eyes that it's got.

:01:00.:01:03.

There were a few complications, but mother and baby are both

:01:04.:01:07.

11 days on, the baby gorilla - a girl - is thriving.

:01:08.:01:12.

She is being fed by zoo staff for a while until she is strong

:01:13.:01:15.

enough to meet the rest of the family.

:01:16.:01:18.

She is only allowed one visitor - the doctor who delivered her.

:01:19.:01:25.

Owain Doull is being tipped as a cyclist to watch in the future.

:01:26.:01:28.

I am chuffed to see Owain is here with us. Thank you. So much

:01:29.:02:16.

training. It is really intense. Talk is through what is going on to get

:02:17.:02:21.

you where you need to be. We are in the fine tuning phase. We've got the

:02:22.:02:25.

World Championships in ten days. Win to put the right things in the right

:02:26.:02:30.

places. Hopefully I will be in good shape to perform. How are you

:02:31.:02:35.

feeling, confident? Yeah, everything is going well so far. Numbers and

:02:36.:02:40.

training suggest we are on track for a good result. You get compared to

:02:41.:02:44.

Bradley Wiggins quite a lot. How does that feel and what is he say

:02:45.:02:48.

about that? It is one of the better comparisons to have. I think there

:02:49.:02:53.

is only one Bradley Wiggins. All I can do is keep working hard and be

:02:54.:02:58.

my own person. What is he like to spend time with? Here's a really

:02:59.:03:02.

good laugh. He is a character. He lifts meeting when he is around. You

:03:03.:03:08.

are only 22. How did you get into cycling? There was a local track

:03:09.:03:16.

down by me and Cardiff. Lots of people came through recycling there.

:03:17.:03:23.

What about tips for kids at home you want to get into cycling, is it

:03:24.:03:28.

easy? Yeah, it's really simple. All you need is a bike. Just ride it and

:03:29.:03:33.

enjoy it. It gives you a sense of freedom. It is not about winning, it

:03:34.:03:38.

is taking part. Best of luck with the Championships. Now, to another

:03:39.:03:42.

sport. Any good at dancing? Useless. Finally, how do you think it

:03:43.:03:46.

would feel to be picked to represent England at the world's biggest

:03:47.:03:49.

dancing competition? Martin met one team determined

:03:50.:03:51.

to get it right on the night! Dancing - all of us love to do it,

:03:52.:03:55.

but it turns out some are just Martin, what are you doing?

:03:56.:03:59.

Dancing! Just stop!

:04:00.:04:03.

OK, then. I'll be the first to admit it -

:04:04.:04:08.

I'm not that good when it comes However, this dance

:04:09.:04:12.

troupe in Birmingham - These girls and boys are just some

:04:13.:04:15.

of the squad representing Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland

:04:16.:04:20.

will also have their own troupes. So what does it take

:04:21.:04:26.

to be that good? You have to put in all the time,

:04:27.:04:30.

not just at the dance studio. You have to put it

:04:31.:04:33.

on at home as well. I get up, I go to school,

:04:34.:04:36.

I go straight from school to dance and then I go to bed.

:04:37.:04:39.

And I do that four days a week. Being a good dancer isn't just

:04:40.:04:42.

training hard, it's training better Before you do a step,

:04:43.:04:46.

you have to think how do I do this? You just have to get committed

:04:47.:04:51.

to it, and all my hard work has The World Cup will take place

:04:52.:04:56.

in Jersey in June this year. These guys will be going up

:04:57.:05:03.

against some of the best dancers They have big boots to fill,

:05:04.:05:06.

because Team England has won the competition for

:05:07.:05:12.

three years in a row. So what are they expecting

:05:13.:05:15.

it to be like? We do a lot of competitions

:05:16.:05:18.

and they are all really special. But getting to represent your

:05:19.:05:21.

country is almost even more special. I feel like the atmosphere

:05:22.:05:25.

is going to be amazing. It is not just about

:05:26.:05:27.

the competition, it's about being meeting

:05:28.:05:29.

the other dance schools. Representing England -

:05:30.:05:32.
