will be joined by Bobby Lockwood. We have a brand-new kick in the bin.

:00:00.:00:00.

Good morning, guys. Ayshah here with some incredible stuff on the way,

:00:00.:00:11.

including... The dramatic rescue of the parachuter who passed out in

:00:12.:00:14.

mid-air. Plus, the couple who found a wild cat at their breakfast table.

:00:15.:00:16.

Only on Newsround. First, to more weather misery

:00:17.:00:24.

expected to hit parts of the UK over the weekend. Heavy rain is due

:00:25.:00:29.

across southern England with further flood warnings and huge tides,

:00:30.:00:31.

called coastal surges, expected to hit towns and villages by the sea.

:00:32.:00:36.

Strong winds and high tides are expected to cause damage on the west

:00:37.:00:40.

coast of England and Wales. Somerset is one area already flooded. BBC

:00:41.:00:47.

reporter Andrew Plant's been there this morning and says people are

:00:48.:00:54.

expecting things to get even worse. They are doing everything they can.

:00:55.:00:58.

This is one of their solutions, bags lined up all the way along the river

:00:59.:01:02.

of sand and a bit of plastic put over the top. It gives the river

:01:03.:01:07.

bank a few extra feet to try and contain whatever water might be on

:01:08.:01:10.

the way. This is a really good illustration of where all the water

:01:11.:01:14.

is running off the Somerset levels and where it ends up. There should

:01:15.:01:18.

be a big archway in the middle but it's so swollen that there is no

:01:19.:01:26.

archway visible. This is a tidal river. At high tide it begins to

:01:27.:01:29.

back-up. The fear is it will then spill-over. The first round of the

:01:30.:01:32.

Syria peace talks aimed at ending the war comes to an end today in

:01:33.:01:36.

Geneva, with little sign of any progress. The Syrian government and

:01:37.:01:39.

opposition are still deeply divided over key issues such as ending the

:01:40.:01:42.

violence and allowing humanitarian aid in to some areas. Lakhdar

:01:43.:01:48.

Brahimi says he hopes to see developments during the second round

:01:49.:01:53.

of talks, which start in ten days. This is the beginning of our

:01:54.:01:57.

process. It was necessary to let the two parties express themselves

:01:58.:02:04.

sometimes in very strong terms about their feelings, their hopes, their

:02:05.:02:09.

fears. Today is one of the most exciting days in the sporting

:02:10.:02:12.

calendar, transfer deadline day. Footy clubs have about 16 hours left

:02:13.:02:15.

to try and secure the signings they need for the rest of the season.

:02:16.:02:20.

Here to guide us through what's likely to happen is BBC sports

:02:21.:02:29.

reporter Mike Williams. What is likely to happen? This is the day

:02:30.:02:33.

that football fans look forward to all dread. All business has to be

:02:34.:02:39.

done by 11pm. It looks as though the Premier League leaders, Manchester

:02:40.:02:42.

City, you wouldn't think they'd need any players, they've scored 110

:02:43.:02:46.

goals this season already and have the biggest and strongest squad in

:02:47.:02:49.

the country, but they are believed to be in for two Portuguese players

:02:50.:02:56.

from Porto. A midfielder and Fernando is a defender. They'll be

:02:57.:03:00.

looking to bring them to the Etihad Stadium for ?40 million. Having --

:03:01.:03:06.

haven't some of the biggest signings already been done? Guess, the player

:03:07.:03:11.

who's gone for the most money so far and made the biggest headlines, Juan

:03:12.:03:17.

Mata joined Manchester United from Chelsea for ?37 million. He's

:03:18.:03:20.

already made an impact, Manchester United beat Cardiff 2-0. United fans

:03:21.:03:25.

will be hoping he can continue that form towards the end of the season.

:03:26.:03:29.

Chelsea have acted quick to replace them and have brought in an Egyptian

:03:30.:03:35.

winner from Basel, who they hope will replace Mata. Will there be any

:03:36.:03:43.

big prize -- surprises today? That could be. Plenty of clubs scrambling

:03:44.:03:46.

to get their business done before the window closes this evening.

:03:47.:03:50.

Arsenal were the big spenders last summer when they brought in Ozil.

:03:51.:03:54.

This year they've been pretty quiet, all they do have a rumoured bid in

:03:55.:04:01.

for Draxler, of Schalke. Will he bring him in before the deadline

:04:02.:04:05.

this evening? We shall see. The big story in London could see Dimitrov

:04:06.:04:09.

Berbatov leave Fulham and join Spurs. Spurs spent ?100 million last

:04:10.:04:14.

summer. They haven't spent any think this window. Will they bring in

:04:15.:04:20.

their old striker? Now if you think transfer deadline day is dramatic,

:04:21.:04:22.

I'm afraid it's nothing compared to this. This is the moment a British

:04:23.:04:26.

skydiver was knocked unconscious, seconds after jumping out a plane at

:04:27.:04:29.

more than 12,000ft up. James Lee passed out after colliding with

:04:30.:04:33.

another diver. Luckily he was rescued by quick-thinking friends

:04:34.:04:35.

who noticed and activated his parachute. He came around just as

:04:36.:04:40.

the parachute opened and landed safely. A family in Chile got a big

:04:41.:04:47.

shock when they went downstairs for breakfast, and found a puma in their

:04:48.:04:50.

kitchen! The two-year-old cat managed to lock himself in their

:04:51.:04:54.

house and caused a bit of a mess, as you can see. That's all from me.

:04:55.:05:00.

I'll see you soon.
