In Cassius Clay Becomes Muhammad Ali, sports journalist Clare Balding describes how, Muhammad Ali, as a Muslim, refused to fight in the war in Vietnam and how his defiance connected him to people all over the world. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Icons: The Greatest Person of the 20th Century, a documentary series celebrating the achievements of the most influential figures of the era.
In Muhammad Ali's Comeback, sports journalist Clare Balding describes the first time Muhammad Ali lost a professional fight when he fought against Joe Frazier in 1971, and his subsequent comeback against George Foreman. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Icons: The Greatest Person of the 20th Century, a documentary series celebrating the achievements of the most influential figures of the era.
How ya goin'? This page is for making your very own Bluey. Read a fruit-batty story, color in a keepy-uppy ballon, and drop Bluey off at school. All you need is a cereal box, paint, glue, and this Make Your Own Bluey template. Did you know that Bluey is a 6-year-old blue heeler? She has three spots on her back. Her bedding has bone pics on it and her bed has a big B!
When it comes to gathering water data, the “employee of the month” may look a little on the “green and cubical” side. Alongside Yorkshire rivers, there are multiple green boxes working hard to gather data on river quality that should, in a couple years, be available for river users and potential swimmers to access through an app that tracks pollution.
Though there are currently apps that show pollution data, that information is old and outdated. This upcoming app is special, because it will use live data from an on-site sensor to provide real-time pollution levels in the water. It’s not meant to tell people “safe” or “not safe” or “swim” or “don’t swim,” but it can give people what they need to make an informed decision... mostly.
The green boxes have a big shortcoming: they’re unable to detect some really nasty bacteria like E.coli, which can only be measured in a lab. But don’t worry, old-school scientists are on the case, manually taking samples to send away for analysis. These findings will be used to build a data set that will be combined with green box data, and AI learning will infer when E.coli (and other bugs) are present in the river.
So, today, we celebrate a beautiful marriage — one of traditional testing, new technology, and AI. It may not be the pairing you’re rooting for on Love Island, but it shows great promise for water safety!
If humans have the Olympics, robots have their own ultimate showdown: the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing, China. It’s a high-energy mix of sport and science where humanoid robots sprint, box, and compete in athletic challenges designed to test just how “human-like” they really are.
But this isn’t just for fun (though it definitely looks fun to watch). Engineers use the competition to push their robots to the limit — testing speed, balance, coordination, and decision-making. Every stumble or success helps them figure out how to build smarter, stronger machines for the future. There’s prize money and recognition on the line too, which helps fuel a fast-growing robotics industry already backed by billions of dollars.
And no, this doesn’t mean robot athletes are about to take over your school sports day. Experts say humanoid robots are still mostly heading toward factories and specialized jobs — not everyday life. So for now, the biggest robot “athlete” you’ll probably meet is still your vacuum cleaner doing laps around the living room.

Teamwork makes the swing work! Mum and Dad are putting together a brand-new swing seat. Can you sort out the stages it’s built in... with no squabbling? First, cut out the pictures and then paste them in the right order (use the words in the boxes to help you!).
Inspired by Season 2, Episode 24 "Flatpack": With Mum and Dad assembling the flatpack furniture, the kids improvise games with the discarded wrapping materials. As the flatpack swing-seat takes shape, so does Bluey and Bingo’s mini-world.
Help Doctor Bluey through the maze to her patient, collecting her doctor thingymajigs along the way!
Top Tip: Recycle some old boxes and decorate them to make a doctor surgery for your teddies. Use the bits and bobs from your doctor set too!
