Evening. Ricky here with Thursday's Newsround. Sit back, because we've

:00:22.:00:25.

got a packed programme for you, On the way. You might have seen him

:00:25.:00:33.

online. Now we've got even more of the world's best surfing dog.

:00:33.:00:38.

I'm live in Manchester ahead of the Children in Need Rocks concert.

:00:38.:00:41.

But first tonight, the massive row over one of these - a handshake.

:00:41.:00:44.

According to the most powerful man in the footballing world, it's the

:00:44.:00:47.

best way to sort out racist abuse on the pitch. But lots of the

:00:47.:00:50.

game's biggest stars are furious with FIFA boss, Sepp Blatter. They

:00:50.:00:53.

want him to quit, saying his comments send out totally the wrong

:00:53.:01:00.

message about stamping out racism in football. Racism in football is

:01:00.:01:02.

big news right now. England captain John Terry's being

:01:02.:01:04.

investigated for apparently making a racist comment towards QPR's

:01:04.:01:12.

Anton Ferdinand during a match. He denies it. And just last night, the

:01:12.:01:14.

FA charged Liverpool star Luis Suarez with racially abusing

:01:14.:01:20.

Manchester United's Patrice Evra. But Suarez says he's innocent.

:01:20.:01:23.

famous footballers have been cueing up to slam Sepp Blatter's idea to

:01:23.:01:31.

just shake hands over racist abuse. Rio Ferdinand tweeted the man

:01:31.:01:35.

himself. He said, "I am astonished. I feel stupid for thinking that

:01:35.:01:40.

football was taking a leading role against racism." Blackburn striker

:01:40.:01:42.

Jason Roberts said, "I am absolutely disgusted, lost for

:01:42.:01:47.

words. I am absolutely fuming." Strictly Come Dancing star and ex-

:01:47.:01:55.

player Robbie Savage called for his head. "What planet is that guy on?

:01:55.:01:58.

That's a shocking statement from the leader of world football. For

:01:58.:02:03.

me, Blatter should go. Blatter out". Strong stuff, and with me on the

:02:03.:02:05.

sofa is former Premier League star Mark Bright. Mark, Sepp Blatter's

:02:05.:02:09.

comments have made a lot of people angry. He says he's been misquoted,

:02:09.:02:12.

but what do you think? He hasn't been misquoted. We have all seen

:02:12.:02:14.

the interview. We have heard it. He said during 90 minutes players can

:02:14.:02:18.

say what they want to each other as long as at the end they shake hands,

:02:18.:02:22.

and everything is good. That's not good. You can't racially abuse

:02:22.:02:28.

someone on the field. You're saying he's sending out a message to

:02:28.:02:32.

children too. Absolutely. He's the top of the football body. You can

:02:32.:02:36.

say what you want to another child while the game is going on, but at

:02:36.:02:42.

the end, just shake hands. No. In this country, it's an offence to

:02:42.:02:48.

racially abuse someone on the pitch. Have you had abuse on the pitch?

:02:48.:02:53.

had it every other week when we played from fans, from opponents.

:02:53.:02:57.

That's nearly been stopped. The France so much better now. We have

:02:57.:03:02.

all embraced the Kick Racism out of Football campaign. That's why it's

:03:02.:03:05.

so much better. Thanks for coming Let's get you some backstage access

:03:05.:03:09.

to what's going to be one of the best gigs of the year, Children in

:03:09.:03:13.

Need Rocks. In the next couple of hours, some of the biggest names in

:03:13.:03:16.

music will be onstage in Manchester. But we didn't want to wait until

:03:16.:03:20.

then, so Leah's there right now. What's going on?

:03:20.:03:30.
:03:30.:03:36.

Rehearsals are still going on. They started at midday with Gary Barlow

:03:36.:03:44.

on stage running through songs. Lady GaGa had three costume changes.

:03:44.:03:50.

Then the JLS boys arrived. I spent the day tracking them down.

:03:50.:03:55.

It looks a bit messy on stage there, but in a few hours, some of the

:03:55.:03:58.

biggest popstars in the world will be performing to raise cash for

:03:58.:04:02.

Children in Need. # Poker face #

:04:03.:04:07.

The world-class line-up includes Lady GaGa, JLS and N-Dubz.

:04:07.:04:10.

Thousands of fans have travelled from all over the country, and

:04:10.:04:14.

these two came all the way from Scotland.

:04:14.:04:19.

We had to get up early, which wasn't very good. I was pretty

:04:19.:04:24.

excited, and I couldn't sleep last night. And all of this was made

:04:24.:04:32.

possible by one man, X Factor judge Gary Barlow. Very excited. I got to

:04:32.:04:37.

get inside and start work. We got the call from Gary, which was

:04:37.:04:41.

incredible to be asked by somebody like Gary to be involved tonight.

:04:41.:04:46.

It was amazing. The only way to get access to the stars was to hang

:04:46.:04:51.

around the VIP entrance. So listen. I have been told the celebrities

:04:51.:04:54.

have arrived. They're here, but I have no access to the back-stage

:04:54.:04:58.

area, but I am going to give it a try for you guys.

:04:58.:05:06.

Can we just go back? No, there is no access backstage. Sorry. Dappy,

:05:06.:05:15.

it's Newsround. I can't get in. Can you sneak me in? Can I? Give me a

:05:15.:05:19.

hug first. Let me get my hair cut. As soon as

:05:19.:05:23.

I get my hair cut, I'm going to come back and do my best. Lovely. I

:05:23.:05:29.

am going to get in. Well, I'm sure Dappy will be coming

:05:29.:05:39.
:05:39.:05:39.

to collect me very soon. We're like best of friends. The fun kicks off

:05:39.:05:49.
:05:49.:05:59.

Nokia Lumia 800.00pm. It'll be on BBC One until 10.00pm.

:05:59.:06:09.
:06:09.:06:11.

Back to you, Ricky! $NEWLINE Now, there are some stories that

:06:11.:06:14.

need lots of explaining. This next one doesn't. So here's one minute,

:06:14.:06:21.

20 seconds of a surfing dog. dog had swum right out into the

:06:21.:06:26.

surf and seemed pretty happy. I put her on the board, and she rode back

:06:26.:06:32.

in. From that point, I realised we had a surfing dog. Now she's an

:06:32.:06:37.

internet star with thousands of fans, but she's had to work hard at

:06:37.:06:40.

her talent. Here she is learning the basics.

:06:40.:06:50.
:06:50.:06:55.

And after awhile, she was ready for OK. Not that big. Matt makes sure

:06:55.:07:01.

she's never out of her depth to keep her safe, and a doggy arm band

:07:01.:07:05.

would probably ruin her surf look, but Mango wants another surf

:07:05.:07:10.

challenge. Now she's mastered the Cornish waves, she's hoping to take

:07:10.:07:16.

place in a dog-surfing contest in the US. She just needs to save up

:07:16.:07:24.

Try asking your mum or dad to put this in your school lunch tomorrow.

:07:24.:07:29.

This is stilton mixed with real gold - no idea why, but it will

:07:29.:07:34.

cost �6 for a cracker-sized wedge. You're probably better sticking to

:07:34.:07:37.

cheddar, though, of course, other cheeses are available! That's it

:07:37.:07:42.

for tonight. And that's it for us in here. This is the last time

:07:42.:07:45.

we're broadcasting from this studio in London. From next week, we'll be

:07:45.:07:50.

coming live from our new home in Salford. Make sure you come with us.
