Good morning. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:16 | |
Ayshah here with Tuesday's Newsround. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:18 | |
Coming up in the next five. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:19 | |
This is the UK's next Prime Minister. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:21 | |
She'll move into Downing Street tomorrow. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:22 | |
And the monkeys who are smarter than we thought. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:26 | |
First our top story this morning. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:32 | |
Theresa May will become the UK's second female Prime Minister | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
on Wednesday, taking charge of the country at one | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
of the most stormy times in recent political history. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
But who is she? | 0:00:39 | 0:00:40 | |
I've been taking a look. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
She's been described as confident, hard-working and unflappable. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:47 | |
Theresa May has long been tipped as a future | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
Prime Minister and yesterday, we found out that she'd get the top | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
job sooner than we thought. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
We are going to give people more control over their lives | 0:00:55 | 0:00:59 | |
and that's how, together, we're going to build | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
a better Britain. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
But why are we getting a new Prime Minister | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
in the first place? | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
There was a chance for someone else to be the Prime Minister | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
because the man who does the job at the moment, | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
David Cameron, decided to give it up after the result of that big vote | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
we had about whether we should stay in the European Union or not. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
A vicar's daughter from Oxfordshire, she went to a state school before | 0:01:21 | 0:01:24 | |
going on to study geography at Oxford university. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
It's where she met her future husband, Phillip, who she's been | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
married to for the last 36 years. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
The 59-year-old has been Home Secretary for the last six | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
years, which is a big job in the government. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:39 | |
It means she is in charge of things like police, keeping the country | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
safe and immigration. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
She's got the backing of the current Prime Minister David Cameron. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:49 | |
On Wednesday, I will attend the House of Commons | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
for Prime Minister's Questions and then, after that, | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
I expect to go to the palace and offer my resignation so we'll | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
have a new Prime Minister in that building behind me | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
by Wednesday evening. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
So far, Conservative MPs have rallied round their new leader. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
But rival political parties have called for another general election | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
to let the British public decide who runs the country. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:13 | |
Mrs May's supporters have been clear. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
There will be no election until 2020. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:17 | |
For now, Theresa May is preparing to lead to the UK as the country's | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
second ever female Prime Minister. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:31 | |
Now if you've ever dreamed of winning gold | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
at the Olympics then listen up. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
A big campaign is being launched today to find | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
future stars of Team GB. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:39 | |
Among the people behind it is Olympic legend | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
Sir Steve Redgrave. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:42 | |
He spoke to Newsround earlier. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
So, Sir Steve, welcome to Newsround. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:45 | |
It's good to be here. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
The last time you won a gold medal was back in 2000 Sydney. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
Shall we take a look at that moment? | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
Why not? | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
COMMENTATOR: Great Britain on the line. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
Here we go. | 0:02:57 | 0:02:58 | |
Great Britain get the gold medal. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:00 | |
It's just incredible. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
What was it like to win that gold medal at that moment? | 0:03:02 | 0:03:07 | |
Absolutely amazing, competing at five different Olympics, | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
winning a Gold at each one was amazing. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:18 | |
Now you've got a campaign to get the next generation at the 2020 | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
Olympics. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:22 | |
Tell me a bit about that. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:23 | |
I got involved in sport of rowing through a small comprehensive school | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
I went to because, as I was an intake of new students, | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 | |
the head of the English department saw I had big hands and feet, | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
and as a youngster that means you are going to grow into a big | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
person and rowing suits big people. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
I launched a campaign called Sporting Giants in 2007 and that's | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
been really successful and this is our biggest campaign | 0:03:39 | 0:03:43 | |
to Discover Your Gold, and if anybody out there | 0:03:43 | 0:03:46 | |
is interested in watching the Games this time and thinking, | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
"I fancy a bit of that, I think I could win an Olympic gold | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
medal," this is your opportunity. | 0:03:53 | 0:04:00 | |
Hashtag Discover Your Gold, and you will be assessed | 0:04:00 | 0:04:02 | |
and if you have got the potential you will be guided | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
into different areas. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:06 | |
There's five programs with it from Paralympics, speed, giants, | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
and it could be skiing. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:10 | |
You could be rowing. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:11 | |
You could be a sprinter. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:12 | |
Or doing watersports. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:13 | |
That's brilliant. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:14 | |
Thank you very much for joining us at Newsround. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
A pleasure to speak to you. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
Euro 2016 champions Portugal have returned home to a heroes welcome. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:25 | |
Thousands of fans lined the streets of the capital Lisbon. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:29 | |
12 years ago, Portugal hosted the Euros and famously lost | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
in the final to Greece, so finally Cristiano Ronaldo | 0:04:32 | 0:04:34 | |
and his team-mates could show off the trophy. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:44 | |
The six-time Olympic champion is in the Jamaican team | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
despite pulling out of their trials with an injury. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
He plans to prove his fitness at the Anniversary Games | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
in London later this month, the scene of his 2012 triumphs. | 0:04:54 | 0:05:01 | |
Capuchin monkeys like this one aren't just cute, | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
they're clever too and brainier than scientists used to think. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:06 | |
The primates have learnt over time how to use stone hammers as tools | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
to break into cashew nuts for food. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
But researchers studying them in Brazil have now found tools | 0:05:12 | 0:05:14 | |
dating back 700 years. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:15 | |
Much earlier than previously thought. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
We can, for the first time, look back into the behaviour | 0:05:19 | 0:05:23 | |
of monkey species. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
All our research, our ambitions to look back on the past, | 0:05:26 | 0:05:31 | |
it's always been human focused and monkeys and other primates, | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
we don't know much about how their tool use has involved | 0:05:34 | 0:05:39 | |
in the species, so this is a window back into the past. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:44 | |
That's all from me. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:45 | |
Newsround's back this afternoon. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:49 | |
Don't forget to check out the website for all the rest | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
of the day's stories. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:55 | |
Bye-bye. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:58 |
