Good morning!

0:00:100:00:11

I'm Jenny.

0:00:110:00:14

First on Newsround, Britain's Geraint Thomas has won

0:00:140:00:16

the first stage of the Tour de France in Dusseldorf, in Germany.

0:00:160:00:19

Watch out for the flashes.

0:00:190:00:21

The Team Sky rider clocked 16 minutes four seconds,

0:00:210:00:23

to take the yellow jersey.

0:00:230:00:24

Geraint said it was a childhood dream.

0:00:240:00:29

Last night's explosive episode of Doctor Who

0:00:290:00:31

wasn't just the end of the series, it was also the end

0:00:310:00:34

of Peter Capaldi's time as the 12th Doctor.

0:00:340:00:36

There are hints that the next Doctor could be a woman so who do

0:00:360:00:40

you think it should be?

0:00:400:00:43

Head to Newsround online to tell us who and why!

0:00:430:00:45

Tennis championship Wimbledon starts tomorrow.

0:00:450:00:47

George and Charlotte's mum, The Duchess of Cambridge,

0:00:470:00:49

will also start her new role as Patron of the Tennis Club.

0:00:490:00:52

She's been talking about her first memories of Wimbledon.

0:00:520:01:00

The first chance of going was queueing up on I think

0:01:000:01:03

it was People's Sunday or People's Monday, I think,

0:01:030:01:05

and being able to go into Wimbledon.

0:01:050:01:07

Be part of what is an amazing event, whether you're sitting

0:01:070:01:09

on Henman Hill or being fortunate enough to be in, and just

0:01:090:01:12

wander around the courts.

0:01:120:01:13

It's hugely special.

0:01:130:01:17

I was pretty fortunate that I managed to get to see some.

0:01:170:01:19

Now to the school kids in Australia, who are helping

0:01:190:01:22

to save rare earless dragons.

0:01:220:01:24

Getting up close with dragons at school.

0:01:250:01:29

While these little creatures definitely don't breathe fire, they

0:01:290:01:32

are one of the world's rarest reptiles.

0:01:320:01:36

And this is what an earless dragon looks like.

0:01:360:01:40

Everybody in Australia knows who Kim Kardashian is.

0:01:420:01:46

But I don't think there's many people that recognise a

0:01:460:01:48

grassland earless dragon.

0:01:480:01:50

These guys are critically endangered because of

0:01:500:01:52

things like farming and overdevelopment,

0:01:520:01:53

which has destroyed a lot of their habitat in Australia.

0:01:530:01:59

That's why researchers have asked to schoolkids to make life-size

0:01:590:02:01

models of the lizards, which will be put

0:02:010:02:03

out into dragon habitats.

0:02:030:02:08

Then they'll be monitored to see which

0:02:080:02:10

predators eat them.

0:02:100:02:11

The models are made from clay, so any attacks made

0:02:110:02:13

on the models we should be able to see.

0:02:130:02:17

Indents, bends in the models will be an indication that they were

0:02:170:02:19

attacked by a predator.

0:02:190:02:21

Researchers say the study will figure out the

0:02:210:02:24

safest places for earless dragons to live, so they can start to

0:02:240:02:28

rebuild the population of these incredible creatures.

0:02:280:02:31

They

0:02:370:02:37

They are

0:02:370:02:37

They are so

0:02:370:02:38

They are so cute!

0:02:380:02:40

Finally, it's been an exciting time for people living

0:02:400:02:42

in Olten, in Switzerland

0:02:420:02:43

because the World Office Chair Championships have

0:02:430:02:45

been taking place there.

0:02:450:02:46

Adults compete in crash helmets and knee pads,

0:02:460:02:48

some in fancy dress, to be crowned champion

0:02:480:02:50

and win about ?300.

0:02:500:02:51

Obviously not one to try at home.

0:02:510:02:52

That's all from the team for now, Newsround's back, right here,

0:02:520:02:55

about quarter past 12.

0:02:550:02:56
