:00:14. > :00:23.all about the new series of X factor. Plus, a classic fairy tale
:00:24. > :00:26.gets a modern make over. First, important face-to-face talks between
:00:27. > :00:31.the leaders of Ukraine and Russia have taken place to try to end
:00:32. > :00:34.months of fighting. Clashes between Ukrainian soldiers and rebels who
:00:35. > :00:38.support Russia have forced hundreds of children and their families into
:00:39. > :00:45.hiding. Each side claims the other -- blames the other for the trouble.
:00:46. > :00:49.If you suffer from asthma and hay fever like these children, you are
:00:50. > :00:53.not alone. Health experts say one in three people now has an allergy.
:00:54. > :00:58.Scientists say the numbers are going up so fast it is not just caused by
:00:59. > :01:03.genes from your parents. It could be what you eat or where you live. The
:01:04. > :01:21.X factor is back this weekend with a fresh judging panel. This is the new
:01:22. > :01:26.judging line-up. Mel B, Cheryl Cole having her make-up done, on the
:01:27. > :01:33.right, after a gap of three years, Simon. The time was right. We had a
:01:34. > :01:39.break. I do not think it is a bad thing. Let other people do it. Then
:01:40. > :01:46.we met, decided we both wanted to come back. Was it a case of you
:01:47. > :01:52.would both do it or need a review? Yeah. Why? As much as we play, I
:01:53. > :02:00.love working with him. We bounce off each other to do the best. You must
:02:01. > :02:07.have had to do a bit of making up. The US X factor. That is show
:02:08. > :02:11.business! How do you put it behind you? There are so many more
:02:12. > :02:18.important things in the world. You move on. Cheryl is right. People
:02:19. > :02:26.enter this show because they want a career. If we have a spat, who
:02:27. > :02:30.cares. If the X factor had been about before, would the Spice Girls
:02:31. > :02:35.have made it? Rain we would have audition, but whether we would have
:02:36. > :02:43.got through, I like to think we would! Not all of you would have got
:02:44. > :02:54.through but most of you! She is really fun. She laughed the whole
:02:55. > :02:57.time. These lights are really hot! A 15-year-old has caused a massive
:02:58. > :03:05.upset at the US Open. The American who is ranked over 1000th New World
:03:06. > :03:09.knocked out the world number 13 from Slovakia in the first round. She is
:03:10. > :03:14.the youngest person to win a US Open match in 18 years. The classic
:03:15. > :03:22.children's fairy tale that is getting a modern make over. Little
:03:23. > :03:26.red riding hood as a dance show. There was a little girl who lived in
:03:27. > :03:34.a village near the forest. She wore a red cloak so everyone in the
:03:35. > :03:40.village called her Little Red Riding Hood. It is one of my favourite
:03:41. > :03:47.stories. It is getting a revamp. The red hood is staying but there will
:03:48. > :03:52.be added ballet pumps. The national youth Ballet is jazzing up the old
:03:53. > :03:56.fable. It is very different to how it is normally seen. She is not a
:03:57. > :04:04.trials. She is an older teenage girl. -- she is not a child. I think
:04:05. > :04:12.she is feisty. She has a rebellious side. It attracts her to the wall.
:04:13. > :04:18.Everything goes off the rails. Eye on the bad guy. I am having fun with
:04:19. > :04:24.that. He is very confident. He knows what he wants. I think it has been
:04:25. > :04:31.really good to have this opportunity to explore different movements.
:04:32. > :04:36.Personally, I love jazz music. I am really loving it. It is one of my
:04:37. > :04:41.favourite stories being given a modern twist. Who knows, maybe I
:04:42. > :04:48.will get a fairy tale ending. I did ballet at school, I think I can do
:04:49. > :04:53.it. Maybe not. Just enough time to tell you about
:04:54. > :04:56.the Newsround website where there is more on the robot brain that can
:04:57. > :05:00.soak up all of the information from the internet.
