Good morning, guys. Welcome to Thursday's Newsround with me, Ricky.

:00:00.:00:13.

We have a bit of this on the way. The callers sold a car is a. A sneak

:00:14.:00:19.

peek at what happened when The Simpsons and Lego collide. -- the

:00:20.:00:24.

huge hall that swallowed up cars and houses.

:00:25.:00:29.

But first. How much housework do you do? Well, children in Spain could

:00:30.:00:35.

soon be told they have to help out more at home by law. The country's

:00:36.:00:38.

government's thinking of introducing rules instructing all kids to help

:00:39.:00:41.

with the household chores. So could that idea catch on here? Here's

:00:42.:00:44.

Martin. Cooking dinner, mopping the floor, doing the dishes, cleaning my

:00:45.:00:48.

room. I'm not a fan of doing the housework. Oh, no. I prefer chilling

:00:49.:00:54.

out in front of the telly with a nice cup of tea. But children in

:00:55.:00:58.

Spain might not be able to relax so easily. The Government there has

:00:59.:01:04.

drafted some guidelines on how kids should behave - and one of these

:01:05.:01:07.

says everyone should help out with chores at home! But what do you guys

:01:08.:01:14.

think about this? Meet Jasmine, Kayden, Caitlynn and mum Kelly. I

:01:15.:01:23.

think it is a bit pathetic because kids will think that they cannot

:01:24.:01:28.

then do what they want, because you have got school, you have got

:01:29.:01:31.

homework, but you have got to do your chores. I think the Government

:01:32.:01:45.

is right about it. We should get the housework done. I think it should be

:01:46.:01:51.

down to the parents to teach them to do the housework. What gets all the

:01:52.:01:59.

chores started in the house? My mum, she tells us to get the chores done.

:02:00.:02:11.

If you do not like doing housework, don't worry, guys. We have not heard

:02:12.:02:15.

any plans for such guidelines in the UK, but it does not mean that nobody

:02:16.:02:22.

else will ask you to do the chores. Come on, Martin, let's get cleaning!

:02:23.:02:33.

And we want to know what you think about chores. Should all kids help

:02:34.:02:37.

out with the housework? Head online to the Newsround website to have

:02:38.:02:42.

your say. Now, imagine being able to trace your family back to where they

:02:43.:02:46.

lived more than a thousand years ago. Well, a group of scientists

:02:47.:02:49.

claim they can do just that using state of the art DNA testing. They

:02:50.:02:53.

say they can pin-point the exact village or tribe where your

:02:54.:02:56.

ancestors used to live as far back as the year 1,000. They do it by

:02:57.:03:00.

comparing the DNA sample - which carries info about who we are - to

:03:01.:03:03.

others from around the world. Next, coming back from holiday is never

:03:04.:03:07.

nice but imagine having to wait for hours before you're even allowed out

:03:08.:03:10.

of the airport. That's what's happening to thousands of people

:03:11.:03:13.

coming into the UK after a computer glitch, that means passport details

:03:14.:03:17.

have to be typed in manually, caused huge delays. Officials are still

:03:18.:03:20.

trying to fix the problem. The BBC's Chris King's been at one of the

:03:21.:03:23.

airports affected. Normally when you arrive at passport control, they

:03:24.:03:25.

take your passport, they scan it, it verifies that you are who you say

:03:26.:03:28.

you are, then they let you go on your way, but yesterday afternoon,

:03:29.:03:32.

there was a computer glitch, and it was not one that could be solved by

:03:33.:03:35.

turning the computer off and on again. So, when passengers got off

:03:36.:03:40.

the plane at Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Birmingham, Manchester,

:03:41.:03:46.

Stansted, they were greeted by large queues. Next to the mystery over how

:03:47.:03:58.

part of a street collapsed. It happened in Baltimore, America when

:03:59.:04:01.

a pavement and wall slid onto rail tracks below. Around a dozen parked

:04:02.:04:04.

cars were sucked into the ground, but luckily no one was injured. It's

:04:05.:04:09.

not clear what caused it - but the area has been hit by heavy rain this

:04:10.:04:12.

week. In sport, Chelsea's Champions League dream is over, after they

:04:13.:04:15.

lost their semifinal second leg 3-1 to Athletico Madrid. Fernando Torres

:04:16.:04:18.

put Chelsea ahead first - but Atletico equalised just before

:04:19.:04:21.

half-time to set up a final against their city rivals Real Madrid.

:04:22.:04:25.

Meanwhile, it's bad news for two of the stars who helped England reach

:04:26.:04:28.

the World Cup. Tottenham winger Andros Townsend has been ruled out

:04:29.:04:31.

of the tournament with an ankle injury. Team-mate Kyle Walker is

:04:32.:04:35.

also a big doubt due to a bad hip. And finally Springfield is set to

:04:36.:04:38.

get a plastic make over for the 550th episode of The Simpsons. To

:04:39.:04:41.

celebrate 25 years on air, Homer, Marge and the whole family will find

:04:42.:04:45.

themselves turning into pieces of Lego. The trailer for the episode,

:04:46.:04:48.

which airs in the UK later this year, has just been released. The

:04:49.:04:52.

writers from the show say after so long on air finding fresh storylines

:04:53.:04:55.

to keep people watching is the biggest challenge. That's all from

:04:56.:04:59.

me, Newsround's back right here in about half an hour.

:05:00.:05:01.
