Hi, guys, Martin here with all the best stories

:00:00.:00:00.

The moment a young gymnast met her Olympic hero live on our show.

:00:00.:00:19.

and trying to solve a bit of an elephant mystery with Kate.

:00:20.:00:29.

We now know that more than 250 people have died

:00:30.:00:34.

following an earthquake on Wednesday morning.

:00:35.:00:36.

Thousands of people have been moved to temporary camps

:00:37.:00:38.

There have been more than 80 aftershocks since the initial quake

:00:39.:00:45.

on Wednesday and this has made it even harder for rescue teams

:00:46.:00:48.

to try to find survivors trapped in collapsed buildings.

:00:49.:00:51.

But teams say they will keep on searching until the

:00:52.:00:54.

And remember, if there's anything in the news that upsets you,

:00:55.:00:58.

there is always help and advice at Newsround online.

:00:59.:01:03.

So, Team GB won a massive 27 gold medals at the Rio Olympics.

:01:04.:01:08.

And it was this guy who started the medal rush -

:01:09.:01:11.

Adam Peaty takes Olympic gold for Great Britain.

:01:12.:01:23.

GB flags everywhere, absolutely everywhere.

:01:24.:01:27.

My face is everywhere coming into the town,

:01:28.:01:31.

you got shops putting your face up on the window.

:01:32.:01:35.

But that kind of support is, you know, invaluable and it means

:01:36.:01:38.

so much to me to have these people behind me.

:01:39.:01:46.

If you start to think about a million things,

:01:47.:01:53.

you're not going to be very efficient.

:01:54.:01:55.

So you literally just got the Channel everything and deal

:01:56.:01:57.

I think going out there I was quite nervous,

:01:58.:02:02.

because it was my first Olympic Games, I didn't know

:02:03.:02:05.

But thankfully I got over that quite quickly.

:02:06.:02:08.

I've made some amazing friends from across the world and those

:02:09.:02:17.

I think, you know, there's nothing more powerful than inspiring kids.

:02:18.:02:20.

Sport in general is a hugely powerful thing.

:02:21.:02:22.

You got kids coming up to you from anywhere and saying,

:02:23.:02:24.

I'm going to go swimming tonight because of what you've done and that

:02:25.:02:28.

in itself is a very amazing pleasure to have and hopefully will continue

:02:29.:02:31.

Now, on Newsround sometimes we like to make the odd dream come true.

:02:32.:02:41.

So when we heard the 16-year-old Olympic medallist Amy Tinkler

:02:42.:02:44.

was in town, we thought we'd bring her in to surprise

:02:45.:02:47.

It's funny, that, we've got a surprise for you.

:02:48.:03:00.

Ciara wants to be a gymnast just like you, she's working very

:03:01.:03:12.

Just the experience, to be able to share the podium

:03:13.:03:22.

with people who I'm sure you know are absolutely incredible.

:03:23.:03:25.

Have you got any advice for young gymnasts like Ciara

:03:26.:03:32.

to go and do what you've done and come back with a bronze medal?

:03:33.:03:36.

My coach said, go out there, you've got nothing to lose.

:03:37.:03:46.

Next, to Kate the elephant on the search for her long-lost keeper,
