Good morning, I'm Naz with Thursday's Newsround! | :00:09. | :00:14. | |
First up, a new day and a new Prime Minister. | :00:15. | :00:16. | |
It's the first full day in the job for Theresa May. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
She took over from David Cameron last night and says she wants | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
to build a UK for everyone. Here's what happened. | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
We will make Britain a country that works not for a privileged few | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
That was the moment the new Prime Minister walked | :00:30. | :00:38. | |
into her new home, 10 Downing Street. | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
Mrs May has taken over as Prime Minister. | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
The last person in charge was David Cameron. | :00:43. | :00:44. | |
He decided to resign after the big vote when the UK decided | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
He is one of the youngest prime ministers this country has ever had. | :00:48. | :00:56. | |
After six years and 62 days in Downing Street, | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
and when you were probably having your tea, David Cameron | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
said his final words as the leader of the UK. | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
It has been the greatest honour of my life to serve our country | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
as Prime Minister over the last six years. | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
Now, whenever there is a change of Prime Minister or Government, | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
the person leaving and the one taking over have to | :01:18. | :01:19. | |
David Cameron, his wife and children went to Buckingham Palace to see her | :01:20. | :01:31. | |
merger to and officially stepped down from his job. Theresa May was | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
next to see the Queen and that was her big moment. She became the new | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
Conservative Prime Minister. Mrs May left the palace and returned to ten | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
Downing St, where she started picking her top team. One is Boris | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
Johnson, who many thought would be the next Prime Minister. Now she is | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
there, she will start work as only the UK's second female Prime | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
Minister. Her biggest job? Sorting out how the UK weaves the European | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
Union. But don't worry about Larry, the Downing Street cat, he will be | :02:07. | :02:07. | |
staying right where he is. Next, something BIG is happening | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
beneath the streets of London. Deep underground the UK is buiilding | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
a giant new underground Here's CBBC's super scientific | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
reporter Fran Scott on what goes I'm right in the centre of London | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
at Farringdon station. And it might look like everything | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
is normal here but beneath my feet, the biggest building | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
project in Europe is going The massive project to build this | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
new train line for And in the summer of 2012, | :02:33. | :02:43. | |
while London was hosting the Olympics, massive | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
machines started digging. It has taken well over | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
20,000 workers, over 100 million hours of work, | :02:53. | :02:54. | |
and they've had to move millions of tonnes of mud | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
in the 42 kilometre route. The digging finally | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
finished right here, where the tunnelling | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
machine, called Tory, broke through to reach this - | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
what will become the new Farringdon Now, they're working on getting | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
seven new stations ready So, how do you go | :03:14. | :03:26. | |
from this... Chloe is one of many engineers | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
working to make that happen. So, an essential part of any railway | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
is the actual track. We're going to lay ours right | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
here where we are walking. So we won't be able to walk | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
here in the future? No - trains will be running | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
through this tunnel, picking up passengers and taking | :03:43. | :03:44. | |
them to their destinations. Chloe, this looks incredible. | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
What is it? This is a temporary shaft, | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
it won't be part of We use them during construction | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
to bring materials in and out You just crane them in? | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
Yes. That's brilliant! This is one of our escalator tunnels | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
here at Farringdon. What you can see now is the final | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
concrete lining being put on top of the orange | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
waterproofing. This will eventually be one | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
of the access points There are lots of parts that make | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
up a working station, but this one will not be ready | :04:17. | :04:24. | |
for us to use for another 2-3 years. Which is a good job because there | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
are still lots to do. Some people in Colorado in America | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
are used to seeing grizzly bears, but somehow, THIS bear | :04:32. | :04:39. | |
managed to lock itself in a car, despite not | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
breaking any windows... Don't worry, though, | :04:42. | :04:43. | |
the bear was unharmed. That's all from me, Newsround's back | :04:44. | :04:45. | |
right here in about half an hour. | :04:46. | :04:54. |
