Hi there, Newsrounders. Ricky and Sonali here with your official | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
countdown to the weekend. Yes, we are full of that Friday feeling | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
today. On the way, Tulisa tells us why she's hooking up with Gary | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
Barlow again, and it doesn't involve The X Factor. And, Hayley | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
goes really wild. But first, America is bracing | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
itself for one of the most powerful storms to strike the mainland in | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
three years. Hurricane Irene left a trail of destruction when it passed | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
over the Caribbean. Tomorrow it's expected to reach America's east | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
coast, home to millions of people. And huge waves have already begun | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
washing up on some beaches. This is the damage caused so far by | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
Hurricane Irene. In the Caribbean, some homes were flattened, others | :00:58. | :01:06. | |
completely washed away. The USA is the hurricane's next stop. The | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
storm is expected to hit North Carolina tomorrow before heading | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
north and arriving in New York on Sunday. More than 65 million people | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
live along its predicted path. Hundreds of thousands of families | :01:16. | :01:25. | |
have been told to leave their homes. You are advised to leave the area | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
immediately. People in North Carolina are stocking up with | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
supplies and boarding up their houses. In New York City, the mayor | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
has ordered people living near the coast to move to higher ground. | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
Hurricanes are common at this time of year in America, but if Irene | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
hits, it will be the biggest storm for 20 years. Pictures taken from | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
space show Irene is a massive 700 miles wide. Wind speeds have hit | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
115mph, and officials are also worried the storm will whip up | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
walls of water along the coast called storm surges. Hurricanes | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
change quickly, so it's impossible to tell exactly where this storm | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
will hit and what damage it'll do. But no-one here is taking any | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
chances. Next up, a little Newsround | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
exclusive for you. We have some very exciting news about this | :02:09. | :02:16. | |
year's Children In Need single. We've had an exclusive look behind | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
the scenes. Tulisa and Gary Barlow have teamed up with the likes of | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
Chipmunk and Tinchy to cover an old song called Teardrop. There are so | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
many acts on the charity record that when I asked Tulisa about it, | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
even she was a bit confused! You are recording the main chorus, | :02:31. | :02:38. | |
how many acts of there in total? many, I do not know. The list kept | :02:38. | :02:46. | |
changing every time I was asking them. Two days later, it would | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
change. It was only a couple of days ago, I asked Gary Barlow about | :02:52. | :02:58. | |
Chipmunk. I said, get him on the record! And he is here. | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
Now it probably isn't feeling like a fabulous Friday if you're a | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
Scottish footy fan. No, for the first time in more than 50 years, | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
there are no Scottish sides left in Europe after Celtic, Rangers and | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
Hearts crashed out of Europa League qualifying last night. Celtic may | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
get lucky, though. The side that beat them last night, Swiss side | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
Sion, have been accused of having five players that shouldn't have | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
been on the pitch. If found guilty, Celtic will take Sion's place. | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
We'll know by Tuesday. Four English sides - Stoke, Fulham, Birmingham | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
and Spurs - did make it into the group stages of the Europa League, | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
though. Tottenham are set to play Shamrock Rovers, who made history | :03:31. | :03:37. | |
as the first Irish side to get this far in Europe. If you want to see | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
the rest of the draw, head over to our website. | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
And while we're talking footy, this seems like a good time to tell you | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
about tomorrow's Match Of The Day Kickabout. It's a tale of two | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
cities as we look ahead to Sunday's London versus Manchester match-ups. | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
Paz grabs an exclusive chat with the Little Pea, Man United's Javier | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
Hernandez. We've got this season's most criminal kits. And we | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
celebrate some of the strangest sendings-off you'll ever see. | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
That's tomorrow, 7:40am on the CBBC Channel and again at 11:40am on BBC | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
Two. Last month, we were all getting | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
excited about the London Olympics being just a year away. Now we can | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
get excited about the Paralympics too. That's because Monday marks a | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
year to go until the likes of our very own Ellie Simmonds get to | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
defend their title. Don't forget, Team GB's Paralympic team did | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
seriously well in Beijing four years ago. Ellie got two golds in | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
the pool, and Britain came second overall, with more than 100 medals. | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
There'll be 20 events altogether in London, including athletics, | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
wheelchair tennis, archery, rowing and judo. And tickets go on sale | :04:39. | :04:48. | |
next month, so if you missed out on Olympic ones, here's another chance. | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
Really excited that it is a year to go, because it will go so fast, and | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
it is the biggest event in my career. It will be amazing, but it | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
is also scary, because it will be so soon, and there will be a lot of | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
pressure on us all. Now, if you think you've had a busy | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
summer holiday, I bet it's nothing compared to our Hayley's. She's | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
spent the past six weeks on a highly-important mission to suss | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
out the most exciting, thrilling or downright crazy things you guys | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
have been doing on your break. If you've missed any of her adventures, | :05:19. | :05:29. | |
:05:29. | :05:34. | ||
they're on our website. Here's her I am on the hunt for the craziest | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
summer holidays, and it is starting to get wild. Leo and his mates are | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
spending their holiday on a bush craft survival course in this | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
forest in Oxfordshire, and they are living in the wild. You have been | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
sleeping, eating, everything here. What has it been like? Pretty fun, | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
I have loved it, every single second. We have been sleeping | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
outside, eating outside, we made fires, we made shelters, and we | :06:06. | :06:15. | |
even had a bath in the cold light. -- cold lake. Why did you decide to | :06:15. | :06:21. | |
come in the wild? I really liked the idea of surviving in the wild | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
with hardly anything apart from trees and grass, and maybe some | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
things that you have got in the backpack. Is it fun as well? Yes. | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
First, we need to get in our camouflage and concealment. As | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
usual, that means covering me in lots of paint. Then we have to trek | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
through lots of pretty rough terrain. We have to forage for wild | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
fruit, and we need to build our own shelter for the night. The most | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
important thing it is too light a fire to keep us warm and eat our | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
snacks. You are spending your holiday here in the wild, how is it | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
going? It has been wicked, I have loved every single second. It is a | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
lot better than being stuck in a classroom. | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
My favourite of her adventures is when she went in a plane with a 12- | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
year-old pilot. That's it, outta time. Have a great | :07:17. | :07:20. |
