:00:00. > :00:13.Good morning, guys. Welcome to Thursday's Newsround with me, Ricky.

:00:14. > :00:19.We have a bit of this on the way. The callers sold a car is a. A sneak

:00:20. > :00:24.peek at what happened when The Simpsons and Lego collide. -- the

:00:25. > :00:29.huge hall that swallowed up cars and houses.

:00:30. > :00:35.But first. How much housework do you do? Well, children in Spain could

:00:36. > :00:38.soon be told they have to help out more at home by law. The country's

:00:39. > :00:41.government's thinking of introducing rules instructing all kids to help

:00:42. > :00:44.with the household chores. So could that idea catch on here? Here's

:00:45. > :00:48.Martin. Cooking dinner, mopping the floor, doing the dishes, cleaning my

:00:49. > :00:54.room. I'm not a fan of doing the housework. Oh, no. I prefer chilling

:00:55. > :00:58.out in front of the telly with a nice cup of tea. But children in

:00:59. > :01:04.Spain might not be able to relax so easily. The Government there has

:01:05. > :01:07.drafted some guidelines on how kids should behave - and one of these

:01:08. > :01:14.says everyone should help out with chores at home! But what do you guys

:01:15. > :01:23.think about this? Meet Jasmine, Kayden, Caitlynn and mum Kelly. I

:01:24. > :01:28.think it is a bit pathetic because kids will think that they cannot

:01:29. > :01:31.then do what they want, because you have got school, you have got

:01:32. > :01:45.homework, but you have got to do your chores. I think the Government

:01:46. > :01:51.is right about it. We should get the housework done. I think it should be

:01:52. > :01:59.down to the parents to teach them to do the housework. What gets all the

:02:00. > :02:11.chores started in the house? My mum, she tells us to get the chores done.

:02:12. > :02:15.If you do not like doing housework, don't worry, guys. We have not heard

:02:16. > :02:22.any plans for such guidelines in the UK, but it does not mean that nobody

:02:23. > :02:33.else will ask you to do the chores. Come on, Martin, let's get cleaning!

:02:34. > :02:37.And we want to know what you think about chores. Should all kids help

:02:38. > :02:42.out with the housework? Head online to the Newsround website to have

:02:43. > :02:46.your say. Now, imagine being able to trace your family back to where they

:02:47. > :02:49.lived more than a thousand years ago. Well, a group of scientists

:02:50. > :02:53.claim they can do just that using state of the art DNA testing. They

:02:54. > :02:56.say they can pin-point the exact village or tribe where your

:02:57. > :03:00.ancestors used to live as far back as the year 1,000. They do it by

:03:01. > :03:03.comparing the DNA sample - which carries info about who we are - to

:03:04. > :03:07.others from around the world. Next, coming back from holiday is never

:03:08. > :03:10.nice but imagine having to wait for hours before you're even allowed out

:03:11. > :03:13.of the airport. That's what's happening to thousands of people

:03:14. > :03:17.coming into the UK after a computer glitch, that means passport details

:03:18. > :03:20.have to be typed in manually, caused huge delays. Officials are still

:03:21. > :03:23.trying to fix the problem. The BBC's Chris King's been at one of the

:03:24. > :03:25.airports affected. Normally when you arrive at passport control, they

:03:26. > :03:28.take your passport, they scan it, it verifies that you are who you say

:03:29. > :03:32.you are, then they let you go on your way, but yesterday afternoon,

:03:33. > :03:35.there was a computer glitch, and it was not one that could be solved by

:03:36. > :03:40.turning the computer off and on again. So, when passengers got off

:03:41. > :03:46.the plane at Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Birmingham, Manchester,

:03:47. > :03:58.Stansted, they were greeted by large queues. Next to the mystery over how

:03:59. > :04:01.part of a street collapsed. It happened in Baltimore, America when

:04:02. > :04:04.a pavement and wall slid onto rail tracks below. Around a dozen parked

:04:05. > :04:09.cars were sucked into the ground, but luckily no one was injured. It's

:04:10. > :04:12.not clear what caused it - but the area has been hit by heavy rain this

:04:13. > :04:15.week. In sport, Chelsea's Champions League dream is over, after they

:04:16. > :04:18.lost their semifinal second leg 3-1 to Athletico Madrid. Fernando Torres

:04:19. > :04:21.put Chelsea ahead first - but Atletico equalised just before

:04:22. > :04:25.half-time to set up a final against their city rivals Real Madrid.

:04:26. > :04:28.Meanwhile, it's bad news for two of the stars who helped England reach

:04:29. > :04:31.the World Cup. Tottenham winger Andros Townsend has been ruled out

:04:32. > :04:35.of the tournament with an ankle injury. Team-mate Kyle Walker is

:04:36. > :04:38.also a big doubt due to a bad hip. And finally Springfield is set to

:04:39. > :04:41.get a plastic make over for the 550th episode of The Simpsons. To

:04:42. > :04:45.celebrate 25 years on air, Homer, Marge and the whole family will find

:04:46. > :04:48.themselves turning into pieces of Lego. The trailer for the episode,

:04:49. > :04:52.which airs in the UK later this year, has just been released. The

:04:53. > :04:55.writers from the show say after so long on air finding fresh storylines

:04:56. > :04:59.to keep people watching is the biggest challenge. That's all from

:05:00. > :05:01.me, Newsround's back right here in about half an hour.
