Hi! Ore here with your Monday afternoon Newsround. On the way: | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
Joe looks into plans for a fast food ad ban. | :00:14. | :00:19. | |
And the seven mile-long dolphin super-pod! | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
First up - junk food. A group representing most UK doctors says | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
they want big changes to the way fast food and fizzy drinks are | :00:25. | :00:30. | |
advertised as part of their plans to get us in shape. At the moment | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
one in three kids will leave primary school overweight and they | :00:33. | :00:43. | |
:00:43. | :00:44. | ||
want that to change, as Joe's been finding out. Advertising - it is | :00:44. | :00:50. | |
big business. This year it is expected companies will spend �17.2 | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
billion in the UK to get people interested in their product, but | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
the advertisements you see could be about to change. A group of doctors | :00:59. | :01:08. | |
want advertisements for unhealthy foods banned before 8pm at night. | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
One in four adults are classed as obese in the UK, and experts | :01:12. | :01:22. | |
predict that will double by 2050. A group is calling on the government | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
to treat unhealthy foods the same way it treat smoking - no | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
advertisements. They have also recommended the price of fizzy | :01:31. | :01:39. | |
drinks goes up by 20%, and they want to limit the amount of fast | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
food places. This proposal would mean the advertisement breaks on | :01:45. | :01:53. | |
shows like the X Factor would be junk food free. One of the things | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
we don't know is whether it will really work because it has not been | :01:56. | :02:02. | |
done before, but it might change the way people behave and the | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
things they buy. The proposals have been criticised as unbalanced, | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
saying plans are already under way to improve public health. The | :02:13. | :02:21. | |
government is being asked to do more to change the shape of Britain. | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
Well, you guys have been joining in the conversation on the Newsround | :02:24. | :02:34. | |

touch. Next, Prime Minister David Cameron has arrived in India for a | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
special three-day tour. The PM has travelled to the country to try and | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
build better working and trade relations between the UK and India. | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
Over the past decade India has become one of the world's biggest | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
economies, but they still have strict rules about letting foreign | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
businesses in. Now to Dartmoor in Devon where | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
archaeologists say they've discovered jewellery dating back | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
4,000 years underground. The team of experts found the treasure | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
buried alongside the remains of a skeleton, which they think is from | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
the bronze age - around 2,000 BC! It's rare to find earring studs and | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
beads in such good condition, as the Dartmoor soil is usually too | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
acidic to preserve things. If you're 13 or under and a budding | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
writer, the BBC 500 Words competition is giving you the | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
chance to prove what you can do with 500 words! Last year thousands | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
of kids wrote stories about everything from Justin Bieber to a | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
chocolate dinosaur! Hayley has been to meet this year's head judge | :03:58. | :04:05. | |
Richard Hammond. Tell me about this competition. For one thing, it is | :04:05. | :04:13. | |
for everybody to join in. Basically we want stories to come in 500 | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
words and it is up to you. It is a terrifying brief because it is | :04:18. | :04:25. | |
entirely up to you. Anything? Literally, anything. Take one thing | :04:25. | :04:32. | |
in your life. I am excited at looking at some really thrilling | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
writing from these incredibly exciting young imaginations. | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
Finally, some very lucky tourists in California got a shock when | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
their boat was surrounded by a super-pod of dolphins. The boat's | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
captain said he could see the group of creatures stretching for seven | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
miles. Marine experts think they all came to the area because it's | :04:49. | :04:51. |
