of a legend around here. 15 years ago there were hundreds of

:03:52.:03:58.

pigeons hanging around Centre Court and they had the potential to

pigeons. Imogen looks after Rufus. Pigeons realise this is not a safe

:04:19.:04:23.

place for them to come and live. Still Rufus does not swoop down and

grab a pigeon and eat it? Now he does not. He is a non-lethal hop. --

among you will be familiar with Ronaldo the Newsround Parrot -

our World Cup predicting bird. Well, it's time for him to get

:05:11.:05:13.

off his perch for a second and let Rufus take over to tell us

:05:14.:05:16.

if he thinks Andy Murray will win Imogen, you have a Yes glove and I

:05:17.:05:20.

have a No glove. Will Andy Murray retain

:05:21.:05:26.

his Wimbledon crown? No. He says no. He is not very

good. He had not had his breakfast yet. According to risk this, Andy
