:23:06. > :23:09.as a warm up tournament. And finally from me good luck to a
:23:10. > :23:12.really top man. Colin Magee from Burbage in Leicestershire has given
:23:13. > :23:16.up nearly 50 years to volunteering, getting thousands of young people
:23:17. > :23:20.into sailing. He is our BBC East Midlands Sport Unsung hero 2013

:23:29. > :23:35.I have met him, he is a great guy, and of course hope he scoops the
:23:36. > :23:38.title! Leicester played host to a visitor
:23:39. > :23:42.today who became famous floating around many miles above planet
:23:43. > :23:45.Earth. Yes, retired NASA astronaut Chris Hadfield was at the University
:23:46. > :23:48.of Leicester visiting the Space Research Centre. He became an
:23:49. > :23:51.internet sensation earlier this year with his series of videos about life
:23:52. > :24:05.on the International Space Station. Our reporter Navtej Johal went to
:24:06. > :24:11.meet him. Chris Hadfield here. One small video for him, one giant
:24:12. > :24:18.internet sensation for mankind. Chris was the first Canadian to walk
:24:19. > :24:22.in space and has orbited the planet 2500 times but these videos helped
:24:23. > :24:27.him become a social media phenomenon. He was at the space
:24:28. > :24:34.research Centre where he held a Q and A with some lucky students. It
:24:35. > :24:38.was a nice interaction, to see their studies and the areas they are
:24:39. > :24:45.becoming expert in and to increase my own understanding through their
:24:46. > :24:50.eyes. Until I was 12, I wanted to be an astronaut. Incredible. I am
:24:51. > :24:55.presenting in front of one of my biggest heroes. The most unusual
:24:56. > :25:00.thing on a space station is adapting to the fact you are weightless. You
:25:01. > :25:06.get so used to flying to touching something with your finger and
:25:07. > :25:11.flying across the room and moving effortlessly, you are adapted to
:25:12. > :25:16.having a superpower. What advice do you have two young and old to
:25:17. > :25:21.achieve becoming an astronaut? Physical fitness, you have to be in
:25:22. > :25:24.shape, and advanced technical education and we need people who
:25:25. > :25:27.have proven ability to learn complicated things as
:25:28. > :25:32.decision`making, proven ability to make decisions and stick with them,
:25:33. > :25:37.especially when the consequences matter. Wise words from a man who
:25:38. > :25:44.once said he wasn't destined to become an astronaut, he turned
:25:45. > :25:52.himself into one. What a bloke. I would love to fly.
:25:53. > :26:01.Christmas jumper day`to`day. It is cold in the studio. Mine is at the
:26:02. > :26:06.ready. We had a damp end to the afternoon and the weekend by
:26:07. > :26:12.daylight looks generally dry with decent sunny spells. You will notice
:26:13. > :26:18.a fresh breeze but thank you for this photograph from Haddon Hall. Do

:27:15. > :27:19.the west and then the rain will eventually arrive to end the
:27:20. > :27:24.afternoon. A breezy day with highs of 10 degrees. The rain pushes
:27:25. > :27:29.slowly through Saturday night but clearing away and we should be
