Hello, Ore and Hayley here with We're in a slightly different | :00:32. | :00:40. | |
Newsround studio this afternoon. The big clear up has begun in the | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
parts of the country hit by the devastating flooding this week. | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
Large bits of the south-west and north-east of England were left | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
underwater as rivers burst their banks. In North Wales, hundreds of | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
people were forced to leave their homes in the tiny city of St Asaph. | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
A charity fund has been set up to help those affected and energy | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
companies are working hard to restore power. We went along there | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
yesterday to see how the families were coping after watching water | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
flood into their homes. Many were put up at temporary rescue shelters. | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
The floodwaters have started to recede now. And we've sent Nel to | :01:06. | :01:14. | |
St Asaph to see how they're coping with the big clean up. 24 hours ago, | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
where I'm standing was completely under water. But things are | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
improving. Now, as the water levels go down, the tough job of the | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
clean-up has begun. More than 400 homes were damaged in the floods | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
here at St Asaph, and lots of families have had to find somewhere | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
else to stay Foster I've come to meet Lucy and her family leave. | :01:36. | :01:43. | |
What did you notice when you came down into the living room? | :01:43. | :01:50. | |
noticed where the water was here. It came up to about here. It was | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
brown and dirty. There was stuff coming in that we didn't even know. | :01:55. | :02:02. | |
People's belongings. Where did you spend the night? Upstairs, because | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
we've got pets and all of our precious belongings are here. We | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
just couldn't go anywhere else. it's not only the water and mud | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
that's the problem. The flood water can be contaminated with foul | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
sewage and other material. The effect of that can be long lasting. | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
It can end up with mould growth and a long lasting smell, so it's | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
essential that things are thoroughly cleaned. The weather | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
forecast for the next few days is better and hopefully the worst of | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
the flooding is over. But for Lucy, her family and hundreds like them | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
across the country, it may be at least a few months before things | :02:38. | :02:48. | |

Stay with us some -- for some exciting movie news. How did you | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
get to school today? Some health experts think we are not getting | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
enough regular exercise. Today, schools and companies have been | :03:02. | :03:04. | |

journeys. Andrew says he walks to Keep them coming in. The Duke and | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
Duchess of Cambridge have been in Cambridge today. It might surprise | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
you given their title, but it's the first time William and Kate have | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
visited the city since their wedding. Hundreds of fans turned | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
out to meet them, including one lady who gave the Prince a babygro | :03:49. | :03:59. | |
:03:59. | :03:59. | ||
He was one of the world's first supercelebs. David Livingstone, a | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
daring and mysterious explorer in Africa during Victorian times. He | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
travelled all over the continent, went missing for six years and even | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
helped to end slavery. Now a new exhibition about his life has | :04:10. | :04:17. | |
He was a doctor from a small village in Scotland, but David | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
Livingstone spent lots of his time in Africa. At that time people in | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
the UK didn't know much about Africa and travelling was much more | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
difficult. He was a bit of a celebrity during his life and gave | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
talks to people about his time abroad. He was so famous, people | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
even collected cards with his photo on. Although he was born almost 200 | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
years ago people still remember him, especially for his part in ending | :04:40. | :04:50. | |
:04:50. | :04:50. | ||
slavery in Malawi. He changed people's attitudes in the way they | :04:50. | :04:59. | |
relate to one another, irrespective of colour, ethnicity and social | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
background. He went missing in Africa for six years but was found | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
by another explorer, Henry Morton Stanley, who famously went up to | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
him and said, Dr Livingstone, I presume? The exhibition includes | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
the hats the men are thought to have been wearing when they met. It | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
also has some of the things Livingstone collected on his | :05:15. | :05:23. | |
travels. People have put a different spin on his life, and | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
we're still doing that now. Our exhibition is very much a 21st | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
century perspective on Livingstone, revisiting some of what you might | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
call the myths. Dr David Livingstone helped bring education, | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
free trade and religion to Africa and he discovered more about the | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
continent. This exhibition celebrates his life and work and | :05:39. | :05:49. | |
:05:49. | :05:52. | ||
lets people get to know him a Finally, it cost hundreds of | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
millions of pounds and has got film fans around the world seriously | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
excited. The Hobbit is the new movie by Lord of the Rings director | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
Peter Jackson, and has just had its world premiere in New Zealand's | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
capital, Wellington. But there's been controversy, too, as Leah's | :06:03. | :06:12. | |
It is hard to believe that a film set to earn millions at the box- | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
office was written 75 years ago. The Hobbit was originally written | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
as a children's fantasy book by JR R Tolkien, the man behind the Lord | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
Of The Rings trilogy. At now, just like those stories, The Hobbit has | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
had a Hollywood makeover. JR R Tolkien, who wrote the habit, is | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
such an inspirational character. The book has influenced so many | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
people, JK Rowling was influenced when she wrote the Harry Potter | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
series. People have travelled around the world to come to New | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
Zealand for the premier. It took the actors two hours to just walk | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
down the red carpet, it was that big. An unexpected journey is the | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
first of three Hobbit films and cost more than �300 million to make. | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
It follows habit on a mission to find treasure Garbutt by a dragon. | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
And getting the film to the cinema wasn't simple either. Filming was | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
delayed a month after a row over actors' wages. There was a fire on | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
set and Peter Jackson, the man behind the Lord Of The Rings movies, | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
had to take over after the original director walked out. But that | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
didn't stop the thousands of fans that turned out for the premiere in | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
Wellington, New Zealand. The country is expecting a huge boost | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
in tourism, as people come to see the locations used in the movie. | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
Hello, Wellington, where have you been, precious? After years of | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
anticipation and the big build-up to one of the most talked-about | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
films of the year, it appears that Hobbit fever has officially taken | :07:42. | :07:52. | |
:07:52. | :07:53. | ||
That looks totally amazing. If you want to see more pictures of that, | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
head over to the Newsround website to see a whole picture gallery from | :07:56. | :08:02. | |
that premiere in New Zealand. My cousin's field is in that film. | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
I'm sure your cousin will be fallen over... | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
You will be able to see it in cinemas here from December. Finally, | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
you've heard of the saying - no crying over spilt milk. Well, there | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
may have been a few tears for these police officers in Belgium who got | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
sprayed with milk during a protest. Thousands of angry dairy farmers, | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
accompanied by hundreds of tractors, descended on the Belgian capital | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
Brussels to protest against falling dairy prices and sprayed milk all | :08:27. | :08:37. | |
:08:37. | :08:45. | ||
over riot police and the European parliament. That's going to smell! | :08:45. | :08:49. |
