on CBBC, and this is on the way. Mo Farah challenges Usain Bolt to a

:00:17.:00:24.

race. And Doctor Who's TARDIS in a living room! This is Newsround.

:00:24.:00:29.

OK, first, we are talking about you. We have done a huge survey about

:00:29.:00:33.

your lives and ask you a lot of questions from, who are your heroes

:00:33.:00:38.

to, what job do you want to do when you are older? We spoke to a group

:00:38.:00:44.

of researchers, and they spoke to over 1600 of the children out there

:00:44.:00:48.

all over the UK aged between eight and 12 years old. Some of the

:00:48.:00:52.

children got back to us with the results, and first we want to know

:00:52.:00:55.

what you want to do when you are older?

:00:55.:01:02.

The world of work is a few years off yet, but what do you want to do?

:01:02.:01:09.

Head of a business in the City? Or a career on the football pitch? When

:01:09.:01:14.

it comes to the boys, 24% of those who took part say they want to be a

:01:14.:01:19.

footballer. 6% want to join the police force, only 4% want to be a

:01:19.:01:24.

games designer. And the girls? Most said they wanted to be a teacher,

:01:24.:01:30.

followed by a hairdresser. Only 8% said they wanted to be an actor.

:01:30.:01:40.

Just 7% wanted to be a singer. And we also ask the children, who

:01:40.:01:43.

are your heroes? 41% of children said it was a member of their

:01:43.:01:50.

family. Top of the list was mum and dad. They also said, 13%, said One

:01:50.:01:53.

Direction where their heroes! We also gave them a list of famous

:01:53.:01:59.

people, we asked who they would like to be like? Boys said they wanted to

:01:59.:02:05.

be like David Beckham, girls said they wanted to be like Rhianna.

:02:05.:02:08.

Loads more information on the survey, guys, over on the website,

:02:08.:02:15.

take a look. Next up, we are talking about wet weather for a change! From

:02:15.:02:19.

a heatwave to flood warnings, heavy rain has fallen across parts of the

:02:19.:02:24.

UK, causing problems in areas like Newcastle, Leicestershire, and a

:02:24.:02:28.

mother and her kids had to be rescued from a river in North

:02:28.:02:31.

Yorkshire yesterday. Experts say the extreme weather we have had so far

:02:31.:02:36.

this year has caused a record number of landslides. The rest of the week

:02:36.:02:40.

will see spells of thundery weather with warm sunshine in between. The

:02:40.:02:44.

Met Office says the hot weather could return in August, but it will

:02:44.:02:49.

be unsettled. Typical school holiday weather!

:02:49.:02:53.

One is the world's fastest man, the other is a double Olympic champion,

:02:53.:02:57.

but what would happen if Usain Bolt took on Mo Farah in a race over 600

:02:57.:03:02.

metres? It is a challenge both athletes are up for, and now has

:03:02.:03:06.

been finding out who would come out on top.

:03:06.:03:11.

They were two of London 2012's biggest stars, masters of the track

:03:11.:03:15.

and the best in the world at what they do. Coming second is not

:03:15.:03:20.

something Mo Farah or Usain Bolt are used to hearing, but after the

:03:20.:03:26.

lightning Bolt accepted a challenge from Mo, that is about to change.

:03:26.:03:34.

The Jamaican sprinter has six gold medals, specialising in sprints. Mo

:03:34.:03:39.

is a long distance specialist, winning gold in the 5000 metres and

:03:39.:03:44.

10,000 metres last summer. Mo has proposed a distance of 600 metres,

:03:44.:03:49.

but whose style would be better suited? Every day of the week Mo

:03:49.:03:54.

Farah would win that, because it is, essentially, an aerobic event.

:03:54.:03:59.

He has got to get rid of the lactic acid that will build up, he will do

:03:59.:04:04.

that better than Usain Bolt. Top speed will not be important. For 400

:04:04.:04:08.

metres, Bolt will be 20 metres in front. By 600 metres, he will be

:04:08.:04:13.

gasping, on his knees. So is that if the science, but who do you think

:04:13.:04:20.

will win? Mo Farah, because Usain Bolt will not have the stamina.

:04:20.:04:25.

think Usain Bolt, he was really good, really fast. It depends on

:04:25.:04:30.

what type of race, but Mo Farah is very good at long distance. A date

:04:30.:04:34.

for the race has yet to be set, but if and when it goes ahead, tickets

:04:34.:04:40.

would be likely to sell-out even faster than either of them run.

:04:40.:04:44.

Now, if there is a sporting showdown you want to see, head over to the

:04:44.:04:48.

website and let us know. Next, do you know the name for a Doctor Who

:04:48.:04:55.
