Leah here, with your top stories live this Tuesday afternoon. | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
We meet the latest Esports superstars, and... | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
Say hello to Julia - Sesame Street's big new character. | :00:14. | :00:24. | |
First, one of the most important people in Northern Ireland has died. | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
Martin McGuinness was Deputy First Minister | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
He was a significant figure who once supported violence | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
in Northern Ireland, but later helped bring peace there. | :00:38. | :00:39. | |
Northern Ireland. One of the foraging nations that make up the | :00:40. | :00:52. | |
United Kingdom. It is a place which has been mostly peaceful for almost | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
20 years. In the years before that, life was very different. The country | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
was divided, and torn apart by a conflict known as the Troubles. | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
There were bombs going off, there were bomb scares. | :01:06. | :01:07. | |
We might be going into the city centre, and you would have had | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
So, was it scary when you went in Belfast with your | :01:12. | :01:18. | |
It was and it wasn't, because you became so used to it. | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
But I remember being in Belfast with my granny and I was maybe | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
about your age, and I was running down the street because there | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
You live a very different way than I did in Northern Ireland. | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
At this time, Martin McGuiness supported violence in | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
Northern Ireland as a way to bring about change. | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
Martin McGuinness always wanted to achieve one thing. He wanted | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
Northern Ireland to no longer be a part of the United Kingdom, but | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
instead a part of Ireland. When he was a young man, he tried to achieve | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
that by being a senior figure in something called the Irish | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
Republican Army, the IRA. The IRA killed lots of people and frightened | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
many more. But as Mr Maginnis got older, he turned to peace and to | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
talking. That's why some people love him and other people hate him. But | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
there is no doubt he is a massively important figure in the history of | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
Northern Ireland, and rose to be one of its most senior politicians, the | :02:25. | :02:25. | |
Deputy First Minister. And if you want to find out more | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
about Martin McGuinness and Northern Ireland, | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
there's lots of information online. Now, you might recognise some | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
of these players behind me from French football team Paris St | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
Germain. But they've had a big | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
new signing recently, and the strange thing is, | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
they won't even set We've been speaking | :02:40. | :02:41. | |
to some of the players Have you heard about football giant | :02:42. | :02:53. | |
Paris Saint-Germain's top new signing? No. Well, it's not one | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
player, it's a whole team. This is the club's new Esports team. They | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
live and train full-time in Germany. Most kids, they have the dream of | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
becoming one day a professional video game player. The funny thing | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
is, they don't actually play a football game. We went to the | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
stadium, we met the players, and everything is cool. It is one of the | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
best things that I've ever done. They play. League Of Legends, the | :03:22. | :03:30. | |
world's most popular video game. So what does a professional video game | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
do? The image of the game in his room playing at nights, it is not | :03:36. | :03:42. | |
true for professional gamers. We always give priority to the team | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
over an individual trying to become a star. We have to practise for 14 | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
hours a day. There is a lot of strategic thinking also that you | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
have to do. I really believe that Esports is going to be the next | :03:56. | :04:03. | |
thing, as big as a football. In the work of League Of Legends, you can | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
see stadiums which are full. I would invite you to just watch a match, it | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
is really amazing. Next, more should be done to protect | :04:12. | :04:13. | |
England's old trees. The Woodland Trust says they should | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
have the same rights They say that having more trees | :04:17. | :04:18. | |
is good for our health Finally, meet a new character who's | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
being welcomed on to the famous Her name is Julia, | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
and the interesting thing about her is that she has autism, | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
which means she sees the world a bit differently to other people, and can | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
find it difficult to communicate. Newsround is back | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
tomorrow with Ricky. Hey, lifebabblers, today we're | :04:39. | :04:49. | |
talking about a feeling we all experience sometimes, but one which | :04:50. | :05:12. | |
is usually not very nice - jealousy. So whether you feel a little pang | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
every now and again | :05:19. | :05:22. |
