Hi, Ayshah here, live from the Newsround studio this | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
Great Britain have been breaking records | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
Olympic superstar Adam Peaty broke the 50 | :00:18. | :00:23. | |
metre breaststroke world record for the second time | :00:24. | :00:25. | |
in a day as he reached the World Aquatics Championships | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
22-year-old Adam is the defending champion and after winning his | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
semi-final he is now the first person in the world to swim faster | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
Honestly, this morning I knew it was going to be hard to beat that, but | :00:37. | :00:52. | |
coming out tonight, I was a bit down because it's been such an emotional | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
last few days, so I thought I would do what I do, and I'm not going to | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
waste a day and an opportunity because I don't know if it will be | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
my last. I just went out there and did what I do. | :01:04. | :01:05. | |
everyday could be banned in 23 years. | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
to make them run will be replaced by electric cars. | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
The government say they are doing it because they want | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
Lots of people all over the UK live in tower blocks like these. | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
But since the massive fire at Grenfell Tower in London five | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
weeks ago, there have been concerns about how safe they are in | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
Ricky has been to meet Shania who lives in a tower block in London. | :01:32. | :01:51. | |
Hello, Ricky. How long have you lived here for? Basically a year. | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
What have we got here? This is the kitchen. Wow, what a view. This is | :01:58. | :02:05. | |
incredible. What is it like living here and having this view? I love | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
it. The Shard is there. After a long day at school, Chennai is home and | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
showing the round her flat in South London. I used to irritate my mum | :02:18. | :02:26. | |
with my friends. I have lived here for a year and I enjoy it. I like | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
the view, I like my bedroom and I like the bigger space, and it's got | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
a roof garden. I prefer it. Since last month's fire at Grenfell Tower, | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
people who look after other tower blocks around the country have been | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
working to make sure buildings are safe in the future and to make sure | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
a tragedy like that never happens again. What was it like when the | :02:49. | :02:56. | |
fire happened at Grenfell Tower? Did you see anything? Yes, I could see | :02:57. | :02:57. | |
the smoke. Yes, shocking. One of the big things that has been | :02:58. | :03:11. | |
talked about at the Grenfell Tower Fire is this stuff. It is called | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
cladding and it is wrapped around buildings to try and protect it from | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
the weather and to also change the appearance of the tower. Some | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
experts have said that the type of cladding used could have had a part | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
in making the fire at Grenfell Tower much worse. | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
The building here has the same type of cladding that -- but the company | :03:35. | :03:42. | |
that owns it said it would be taken off and replace. They say the fire | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
brigade have checked the building and say it to live in right now | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
because of all the other safety features, including sprinklers and | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
smoke alarms in every home. They told us to test our fire alarms, | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
both of them, and to be careful. We have been given a lot of advice. We | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
have sprinklers basically everywhere. Every room you going, | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
there is a sprinkler. We have been told we are safe and there is | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
nothing for us to worry about. Shania and her mum have heard a lot | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
about tower blocks since the fire at Grenfell Tower. Many people in the | :04:20. | :04:21. | |
blocks with cladding won the authorities to do more to make them | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
feel safe, but Shania and her mum say they are happy living here. | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
13 elephants stopped traffic as they spent half an hour | :04:29. | :04:36. | |
enjoying themselves, munching on bananas | :04:37. | :04:38. | |
It's not the first time that elephants have invaded the village. | :04:39. | :04:45. | |
They're highly respected by the locals who let them hang out | :04:46. | :04:47. | |
Newsround's back right here in about half an hour. | :04:48. | :05:04. | |
I've got two favourite shows on CBBC, | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
