Good morning, I'm Naz with Thursday's Newsround.

:00:00.:00:09.

Something BIG is happening beneath the streets of London.

:00:10.:00:14.

And how this little bear got in and out of this locked car.

:00:15.:00:27.

First up, a new day and a new Prime Minister.

:00:28.:00:31.

It's the first full day in the job for Theresa May.

:00:32.:00:35.

She took over from David Cameron last night and says she wants

:00:36.:00:40.

to build a UK for everyone. Here's what happened.

:00:41.:00:45.

We will make Britain a country that works not for a privileged few

:00:46.:00:49.

That was the moment the new Prime Minister

:00:50.:00:53.

walked into her new home, 10 Downing Street.

:00:54.:00:56.

Mrs May has taken over as Prime Minister.

:00:57.:01:03.

The last person in charge was David Cameron.

:01:04.:01:04.

He decided to resign after the big vote when the UK

:01:05.:01:07.

He is one of the youngest prime ministers this country has ever had.

:01:08.:01:15.

After six years and 62 days in Downing Street, and when you were

:01:16.:01:19.

probably having your tea, David Cameron said his final words

:01:20.:01:21.

It has been the greatest honour of my life to serve our country

:01:22.:01:25.

as Prime Minister over the last six years.

:01:26.:01:31.

Now, whenever there is a change of Prime Minister or Government,

:01:32.:01:34.

the person leaving and the one taking over have to go

:01:35.:01:37.

David Cameron, his wife and children went to Buckingham Palace

:01:38.:01:44.

to see Her Majesty and officially stepped down from his job.

:01:45.:01:48.

Theresa May was next to see the Queen and that

:01:49.:01:50.

She became the new Conservative Prime Minister.

:01:51.:01:55.

Mrs May left the palace and returned to 10 Downing Street,

:01:56.:01:58.

where she started picking her top team.

:01:59.:02:01.

One is Boris Johnson, who many thought would be

:02:02.:02:03.

Now she is there, she will start work as only the UK's second

:02:04.:02:10.

Sorting out how the UK leaves the European Union.

:02:11.:02:18.

But don't worry about Larry, the Downing Street cat, he will be

:02:19.:02:21.

Next, something BIG is happening beneath the streets of London.

:02:22.:02:29.

Deep underground the UK is buiilding a giant new underground

:02:30.:02:31.

Here's CBBC's super scientific reporter Fran Scott on what goes

:02:32.:02:35.

I'm right in the centre of London at Farringdon station.

:02:36.:02:39.

And it might look like everything is normal here but beneath my feet,

:02:40.:02:43.

the biggest building project in Europe is going

:02:44.:02:45.

The massive project to build this new train line for London

:02:46.:02:57.

And in the summer of 2012, while London was hosting

:02:58.:03:00.

the Olympics, massive machines started digging.

:03:01.:03:02.

It has taken well over 20,000 workers, over 100 million hours

:03:03.:03:05.

of work, and they've had to move millions of tonnes of mud

:03:06.:03:08.

The digging finally finished right here, where the tunnelling machine,

:03:09.:03:17.

called Victoria, broke through to reach this -

:03:18.:03:20.

what will become the new Farringdon underground station.

:03:21.:03:25.

Now, they're working on getting seven new stations ready to open

:03:26.:03:28.

So, how do you go from this...to this?

:03:29.:03:37.

Chloe is one of many engineers working to make that happen.

:03:38.:03:42.

So, an essential part of any railway is the actual track.

:03:43.:03:45.

We're going to lay ours right here where we are walking.

:03:46.:03:49.

So we won't be able to walk here in the future?

:03:50.:03:52.

No - trains will be running through this tunnel,

:03:53.:03:54.

picking up passengers and taking them to their destinations.

:03:55.:03:59.

Chloe, this looks incredible. What is it?

:04:00.:04:02.

This is a temporary shaft, it won't be part of

:04:03.:04:04.

We use them during construction to bring materials in and out

:04:05.:04:09.

quickly and safely. You just crane them in?

:04:10.:04:11.

Yeah, pretty much. That's brilliant!

:04:12.:04:16.

This is one of our escalator tunnels here at Farringdon.

:04:17.:04:19.

What you can see now is the final concrete lining being put on top

:04:20.:04:22.

This will eventually be one of the access points into the tunnel.

:04:23.:04:30.

There are lots of parts that make up a working station,

:04:31.:04:32.

but this one will not be ready for us to use for another 2-3 years.

:04:33.:04:36.

Which is a good job because there are still lots to do.

:04:37.:04:40.

To footy - and could this man be the next England manager?

:04:41.:04:53.

He's Sam Allardyce, current manager of Premier League club Sunderland.

:04:54.:04:55.

If the English Football Association like his grand plan -

:04:56.:04:58.

he'll pick up from where Roy Hodgson left off -

:04:59.:05:00.

after England were knocked out of Euro 2016 by Iceland.

:05:01.:05:03.

But Sunderland say they want their manager to stay.

:05:04.:05:15.

Do you think Sam the right man for the England football team? Let us

:05:16.:05:18.

know what you think. Jo Pavey will compete in her fifth

:05:19.:05:23.

Olympics Games this summer after being selected to represent

:05:24.:05:25.

Team GB at the Rio. She's 42 and will be

:05:26.:05:28.

the oldest British woman Some people in Colorado in America

:05:29.:05:30.

are used to seeing grizzly bears, but somehow, THIS bear

:05:31.:05:40.

managed to lock itself in a car, despite not

:05:41.:05:41.

breaking any windows... Don't worry, though,

:05:42.:05:43.

the bear was unharmed. That's all from me, Newsround's

:05:44.:05:45.

back this afternoon.
