from the sports centre, here is richard. i, richard. salmonella di says he is ready for the challenge he will face as the new crystal palace manager. —— sam allen dyce. he has signed a two and half year deal and replaces the manager who was sacked on thursday. they say they are fortunate he was available. he was sacked by england after one game in charge after a newspaper sting. speaking to an in—house television station, users the cup is a lot going for it. the club itself seems to be very ambitious. certainly the chairman. they seem to be taking the club the right direction. i like the look of the squad. and that is probably the reason that i'm here, because i feel like the club can go forward from
12:32 pm
here and hopefully can help go forward. the former manchester united manager says he believes some of the club's great britain traditions have gone. he is currently in charge at sunderland after being sacked by united in 2014 after less than one season united in 2014 after less than one season in charge. he said the club tended to pick british managers and never seemed to throw their weight around in the transfer market. he says that has changed and united have spent a lot since sir alex retired in 2013. the west bromwich goalkeeper has signed a new deal at the club which will keep him at the hawthorns until 2019. foster recently made his 150th appearance for them. the defending pdc darts world champion gary anderson is due to the third round at the alexandra palace. if he did not drop a set in his win. he went

through four sets to nil. eddie lewis is also true. that is all your sports now. i will have more for you in the next hour. now it is time for click. this week a click christmas with digitaljumpers, this week a click christmas with digital jumpers, hatched technology and fighters. welcome to the annual get—together. with what everyone here. hello. i have got a little christmas
12:34 pm
gift for you. it is an egg. inside it is the latest robotic interactive toy. it has got loads of sensors and your child basically has to nurture the 999 child basically has to nurture the egg in order to hatchet and then it brea ks egg in order to hatchet and then it breaks its way out of the egg and then you teach it gains and care for it, basically. feed it and play with it. you are going to be a daddy, thank you. let's put it some are not on the table. we had some adventures this year. we've been all over the place and infact year. we've been all over the place and in fact it is a 52 week a year production. this is the kind of thing we have been doing this year.
12:35 pm
iam look thing we have been doing this year. i am look skywalker. have a billion pixels on display here. some of the most extraordinary athletes you will see the share. say hello to the robot mark two. it was‘s highest glass walkway. this is absolutely stunning. this week we're going to look back at some of our best bits from 2016 and we start with a really positive story in a place that you would not think there was any positivity at all. earlier in the yearjenna went to the border with syria to look at some of the innovation that is happening in the syrian refugee camps. that is right. i went to the biggest
12:36 pm
refugee camp in jordan. that is right. i went to the biggest refugee camp injordan. there are about 80,000 living there and it is about 80,000 living there and it is a community of makers. i was fascinated to find out. they are making some incredible technology at its very rudimentary things in the camp. the main street here is coggeshall ‘s lead a. it is a play on two things. there are several hundred shops lining the street and you can find everything from bridal dresses are vegetable shops, barbara shops and even quite a few mobile phone shops. technologies being used in inventive ways to eu ‘s daily life here. the camp as a community of makers and one of the most innovative people we met is this man. two years innovative people we met is this man. two years ago, innovative people we met is this man. two years ago, he fled the violence in syria with two family members. they all have disabilities and struggled to get around on the on paved roads. he wanted to more
12:37 pm
independence and design an electric bike around spare parts he found. giving refugees access to technology and education is the focus of the group called refugee opened where. 0ne group called refugee opened where. one of its start—ups is focused on fabrication technology, including 3-d fabrication technology, including 3—d printing. this man was an ambulance driver and lost his leg in ambulance driver and lost his leg in a bomb explosion. as well as customising his own prosthetics he helped a young boy who lost part of his hand in a fire. they were able to include elements of its favourite cartoon character in the design. although just 75 us dollars. he also helped to develop a 3—d printed system using feedback for another syrian refugee who was blinded by a sniper shot that went through his eyes. the echolocation system helps guide him to walk around unaided. it
12:38 pm
is planning to open fabrication labs ina is planning to open fabrication labs in a refugee camp in turkey and in the northern jordanian in a refugee camp in turkey and in the northernjordanian city. it is a small but positive step to harness the talents of people forced into excel and help integrate them into a new country. —— forcing textile. the next part of the programme i've had to clear the room because there isa had to clear the room because there is a serious danger to human life in this next item. is that not right? that is exactly right. 0ne this next item. is that not right? that is exactly right. one of the biggest gives people been getting is of course drones. for the next few christmases a star wars movie is going to be released as well. as it should be. combining to add what do you end up with? star wars drones. there is something special about these drones, isn't there? they are notjust learned that he did lie about. they can actually
12:39 pm
engage in combat as well. there are armed with guns which means you can fly them about and then press the fire button and then... you are going to get your best anakin skywalker on. it would be look skywalker in fact. when a shot is registered beget a rumbling in the controller and you get three lines there as well. feel the force. the force is strong in this one, certainly. you met an amazing flying man this year, too. yes, a man who flies like a bird. his name is eve and he has an apprentice cold beans. he is based out into buying and he is the get man. this met an apprentice called vince. we went up for a flight with
12:40 pm
him and saw what he does the training centre is based here in the desert outside to buy. today i'm going to watch him do his jet powered thing. how are you feeling? good, yes. in this hang—out, the team maintain the jet wings which are capable of flying at 189 mph. so you are not flying at 189 mph. so you are not flying solo any more? no. that is the big advantage now. i can have a friend with me in the air. vince has plenty of experience as a three—time world champion skydiver. i would see what he was doing as a pilot and a pioneer. i would see who
12:41 pm
he was. 0utside he was. outside the hangar, things are getting a bit noisy. 0ther getting a bit noisy. other right has arrived. with the chopper on the flight line, it is time for a chopper on the flight line, it is time fora him chopper on the flight line, it is time for a him to become thejet man. no flight would be complete without an inspirational soundtrack. as well as lacking doors, this particular one lacks seats in the back as well. 0k, particular one lacks seats in the back as well. ok, 20 seconds until launch. that is without a doubt the most
12:42 pm
bonkers thing i have ever seen. so we canjust bonkers thing i have ever seen. so we can just see bonkers thing i have ever seen. so we canjust see him in the bonkers thing i have ever seen. so we can just see him in the distance. he is flying formation with a helicopter. theirfears. he is going to fly parallel with helicopter right now. 0h, to fly parallel with helicopter right now. oh, my word. you will believe our man can fly. she has got about eight minutes worth of fuel. here he comes again. we'rejust coming into land now but he is going to land by a slightly different method. does in the distance out there we can see him. his parachute
12:43 pm
is deployed and he is going to land right back at his hangar. truly incredible stuff. as you can see we have reached that part of the christmas dinner now. i will crack on the. my most memorable moment of the year was when i visited the large hadron collider and had a jolly good cry. i'm having a moment. we were lucky to see inside the collider and the cms experiment. even better, we filmed the whole thing in 360 so you can take a peek inside, too. welcome to the largest particle physics laboratory in the world. right now you are standing inside the european organisation for nuclear research. and you have got a view that very few people will ever
12:44 pm
see. we are about 100 metres beneath the swiss french border and above you is just one of the experiments at the large hadron collider. it sells the largest machine in the world. ina sells the largest machine in the world. in a few minutes we will head up world. in a few minutes we will head up there yet on that cherry picker to see what happens when you smash particles together at close to the speed of light. before we do, let me show you what kind of kit you need to get things going that fast. here we are walking along part of the long circular tunnel that houses the lh c. that is it's next to you. the large hadron collider. that collection of magnets. it is a 27 kilometre long loop. there are four experiments on the lh c and ten accelerators in the complex, which together accelerate bunches of particles up to the speed of light. this catherine contains the cms
12:45 pm
experiment. a compact nuance, though there is nothing combat about it if you ask me. this is one of the places that helped to discover... that shiny pipe above you is connected to the tunnels we were justin and when the beans and particles are going fast enough, tiny adjustments are made to bring those beams together until right here, they collide. in an instant, the particles are smashed to pieces. it is these even smaller particles that the cms can detect. it is an enormous sense that looks for the fundamental blocks of the universe. by fundamental blocks of the universe. by using even higher energy the scientists hope to find other particles and explain mysteries like dark energy and stark matter, which makes up 95% of the matter in our universe. this is big science
12:46 pm
performed on the tiniest of scales. this is the click christmas table in 360. the brilliant thing about filming thing into the 60s is that you can do really weird things with the picture. but it can also feel like you genuinely are sat in the middle of our table if you go to the link on the screen now you will see us link on the screen now you will see us surrounding you about to eat you. the man behind the 360 show is this man, steve beckett. at the moment he is wearing a beautiful augmented reality christmas jumper. watched you think of this? it is a little bit scary. it's a bit scary. it's a bit scary. it is terrifying. from one engineering to another engineering marvel that spans two mountains in china, dan simmons went to china's
12:47 pm
old est china, dan simmons went to china's oldest national park. tucked away on the edge of this world heritage site, someone has decided to build a bridge. from the middle of nowhere to the middle of nowhere. unlike me, they hope the thousands of visitors that will come here won't be too scared to look down. 300 metres through the world's highest glass walkway. these are the final days of construction for this three—year project. more than 300 ingenious of worked through all weather conditions to build the awards longest glass bottomed bridge. a breathtaking 430 metres crossing the grand canyon. the walkway itself is
12:48 pm
just 60 centimetres thick so the challenge to keep everything stable has required some fresh thinking. 70 glass balls are to be positioned on springs along the walkway. they been designed to move to counter any swaying. these currently railings will persuade up to 800 visitors to keep changing direction, offsetting the resonance caused by hundreds walking at a constant speed. 0ur hosts were keen to showjust how safe i was. each panel of the walkway has three layers of toughened glass held together by the move. here goes. and it looks like you can see the top glass has shattered here. we are ok. that is it. do you know
12:49 pm
what, i think this might be safe. 0k, guys. we get the point. that has to be the finest shot that anyone in this programme i shot since, like, forever. 0ne anyone in this programme i shot since, like, forever. one of the other amazing things we saw this year was in zurich when laura and i travelled as you the world's first bionic games. it was incredible to see the latest in robotic arms, motorised wheelchairs, brain controls, and absolutely amazing day. but it was
12:50 pm
also a competition for people who created the devices. 66 teams from over the globe have been designing, building and training for this very unique competition. disabled athlete, cure known as pilots, will be competing using advanced assistive devices. it is the brainchild of this man, a professor for sensorimotor systems in zurich. it is an event for people with disabilities who are allowed to use any kind of technology and that technology helps them to better performing daily life activities. we are focusing on the challenges of daily life but allowing technology, we can include people with very severe disabilities. each of the six disciplines will have qualifiers in the morning before the grand finals in the afternoon. how do you win? simple. get round the course through the obstacles get round the course through the o bsta cles in get round the course through the obstacles in the shortest time while
12:51 pm
in carrying the lowest number of penalties. —— the team's leader, with the best ideas to help their pilot script, twist and balance their way along the obstacle course. the race is designed to test how well pilots can work with their proceeds as to com plete work with their proceeds as to complete tasks that would typically be challenging for them. this is the race where the mightiest tech in the world can be foiled by the humble clothes peg. what is the next challenge that you feel you could reason be overcome? the next thing that is a very big technical product is the touch sensitive nature of the fingers. there is no feedback at the moment in commercially available hands for getting the signal back to the body.
12:52 pm
the ultimate victor was this team. a group of biomechanical engineering stu d e nts group of biomechanical engineering students from delft university of elegy in the netherlands. together with their pilot, himself an expert on plus these is, they went for a more established body powered approach which means that physical movements like reaching forward or lifting your shoulders are used to control the device. but while this gold medal idea might have won the day, in the end, just crossing the line was enough to send more list teams home happy. —— most teams home happy. the wheelchair final was a much closer run thing for the four finalists and again you can really see the variety of ideas and designs. the hong kong team went for these caterpillar tracks which make short work of the rumble trips.
12:53 pm
that is not a full share. that is a real tank. that lack of suspension really gave the pilot a rocky ride on the uneven ground. and balance was the big issue as these chairs arrived at the stairs. really the climax of the event. with three pilots all reaching them at the same time. as the hong kong palate had to once again injobbing thrown time. as the hong kong palate had to once again in jobbing thrown about. this man showed off the weight shifting feature of this chair which ensured he did not topple over. in the final seconds, the swiss team came from third place to beat hong kong by just came from third place to beat hong kong byjust five seconds. that was a tiny snippet of what was
12:54 pm
a really special show. if you missed it or you would like to watch it again then it is still on high player. just scroll back to october. it is nearly time to go but we have to check when our hatchling here. it has hatched. we will wake it up. 0h. we will wake it up. oh. oh, dear. now it grows up and you teach it more things than one of the fun things you can do is teach it to speak so. you can say, happy christmas, spencer. hgppy christmas, spencer. happy christmas, spencer. it is for ages five and up and the side—effect of it hatching is these little tiny bits of plastic do break of so if you have young kids around, rbc be very wary that these are a choking hazard. take care. 0therwise, very wary that these are a choking hazard. take care. otherwise, it is really cute.
12:55 pm
0ne really cute. one more world first that we took pa rt one more world first that we took part in this. this year, kate and i hosted the very first live show in front of a studio audience. is anybody there? that was interesting. are you ready? i said, anybody there? that was interesting. are you ready? isaid, are anybody there? that was interesting. are you ready? i said, are you ready? let's go. hello. real people. now, if you were not lucky enough to be in the audience, don't worry, we recorded the whole thing and we will be showing the highlights and behind—the—scenes stuff from the live show in next week's show. thank you very much for watching the
12:56 pm
christmas special. there is only one thing left to do. the world's first 360 degrees cracker pull. merry christmas. hello. the latest satellite sequence tells a stormy tail. in between we have got this vale of cloud robbing many of some full on sunshine. the winds still noticeable across the northern half of scotland. the rain filling in later on in the day. further south, there is a fair amount of dry weather around and it
12:57 pm
is on the mild side. that is because we've got south—westerly breeze as which will dominate strongly course overnight. the rental is an across the northern half of the british isles. the priest of really quite noticeable in all parts. this is how we start christmas day morning. 11-14d we start christmas day morning. 11—14d or so. somewhere might break the record of 15.6 for christmas day. we have this weather front gradually toppling into western scotla nd gradually toppling into western scotland and eventually the north of england and wales. further north is to something a wee bit fresher. good afternoon. israel has condemned a vote by the un security council — calling for an end to jewish settlements on occupied palestinian land. the us abstained rather than vetoing the resolution as it usually does.
