We've got loads for you this afternoon, online and on TV. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
Blue Peter's Lindsay gets ready for her tough sports relief | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
challenge, and the baby gorilla born with help | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
This baby gorilla is the first in the UK to be born with help | :00:16. | :00:31. | |
She needed a three hour operation to bring her safely into the world. | :00:32. | :00:41. | |
Here's Ricky. This man has delivered hundreds of | :00:42. | :00:49. | |
babies but now Professor David Carhill has delivered something | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
original. This newborn baby gorilla is tiny and very hairy. Bristol Zoo | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
asked for help from the local maternity hospital after her mum | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
became ill. He had to carry out a three-hour operation to get the baby | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
out safely. It was very special, very different. I mean, I have | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
helped lots of babies but this one was quite special because even | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
though it's quite small, it had a strong grip, looked at me with those | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
weird eyes it's got. It was fun. There were a few complications, but | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
mother and baby are now doing well. 11 days on, the baby, a girl, is | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
thriving. She's being fed by zoo staff for now until she's strong | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
enough to meet the rest of the family. She's only allowed one | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
visitor - the doctor who delivered her. Thanks, Ricky. | :01:39. | :01:39. | |
Next, the government in Fiji is sending boats to hard to reach | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
areas to help people cut off by a powerful cyclone that | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
The storm and winds of over two hundred miles an hour, | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
caused lots of damage to the group of islands in the Pacific Ocean. | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
Thousands of people are now living in evacuation centres and many homes | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
She's a Blue Peter Presenter and used to tough jobs but now | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
Lindsey Russell says she's nervous but excited about her Sports Relief | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
She's going to Zorb in a plastic ball over 20 miles ons water. | :02:07. | :02:16. | |
After months of training, her mammoth task is just days away | :02:17. | :02:18. | |
I am here with Blue Peter presenter Lindsay and she's about to set off | :02:19. | :02:26. | |
on this epic challenge. You're the wave runner. We caught you literally | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
before you're about to head off to Northern Ireland. Minutes. It's | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
ready to go. They're packed and ready to go. How are you feeling? | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
Terrified, really, really nervous. This is officially, I think, the | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
biggest challenge of my life. I have never done anything this big on Blue | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
Peter. We're so used to adventures and challenges, but this one really | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
is huge, so I'm scared. I feel physically good, though. I have been | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
training for five months now and eating all the right foods. I have | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
been at the gym loads. I have done all I can. You have been training | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
for hours on end, on the treadmill. How long? The longest I did was a | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
six-hour run, which I don't recommend. That's just silly. So | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
have you all come to know each other? We're friends and enemies. | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
Sometimes I love the Zorb. Sometimes it's horrible. Weather conditions | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
have to be right for you to complete this challenge for Sport Relief. Lou | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
is it looking? We're looking good, but literally just for 24 hours. We | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
found a window. We set aside two weeks to do this, and we thought in | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
that time there has to be a day that's good, and it turns out there | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
is literally only 23, 24 hours where the wind is right. The sun is OK. | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
The tides are doing the right thing. The swells aren't too big, so we | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
think we have just hopefully found the perfect moment to do it. Tell us | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
where you're starting. I am starting in Northern Ireland. The idea is to | :03:51. | :03:59. | |
cross into Port Patrick, which is where my dad is. My school will be | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
there, my God brother and my cousins. I am half-Scottish, so it's | :04:05. | :04:11. | |
special to finish there. Represent Scotland. Just have a cup of tea | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
before you get into that car. Best of luck. I'll yo see you on the | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
other side. Bie, Newsround. Thanks, Lindsay. | :04:22. | :04:22. | |
Slugs - they're long, brown and slimy - and can | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
But scientists in Shropshire in England, have now fitted them | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
with trackers to work out where they go, so they can limit | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
Slugs are more active at night and will be out in the field and have a | :04:32. | :04:42. | |
number of tagged slugs which we relief. We'll go back every 20 | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
throughout the night. throughout the night. | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
That's all from the team today, but there's loads more online. | :04:50. | :04:51. | |
