Afternoon, everybody. We are live, it is just after five, we are

:00:23.:00:28.

wearing matching blue shirts and this is Newsround. We are here with

:00:28.:00:32.

the biggest stories of the day. Here is what is on the way. Pirates

:00:32.:00:35.

of the Caribbean star Keira Knightley talks about her fight

:00:35.:00:40.

against dyslexia. And find out why there will be no change of

:00:40.:00:44.

direction for One Direction. They should get some new shirts!

:00:44.:00:48.

First, to Belfast. For the last two nights, police have been involved

:00:48.:00:51.

in violent clashes on the streets. It's been sparked by religious

:00:51.:00:56.

parades which have been in the city every summer. So far, more than 60

:00:56.:00:59.

police officers have been injured. There are warnings that more

:00:59.:01:05.

violence could follow. Bricks, petrol bombs, stones and

:01:05.:01:10.

fireworks. Thrown at police by rioters last night. Since rioting

:01:10.:01:15.

broke out on Sunday, more than 60 officers have been injured. The

:01:16.:01:19.

clashes in the Carlisle Circus area of Belfast are a reminder of what

:01:19.:01:27.

Northern Ireland looked like in there 1970s and 80s. For many years,

:01:27.:01:31.

there were clashes between mainly Protestant loyalists, he wanted

:01:31.:01:35.

Northern Ireland to remain part of Britain, and nationalists, mostly

:01:35.:01:40.

Catholic, who wanted to be part of the Republic of Ireland. Since 1998,

:01:40.:01:43.

when a peace agreement was signed, the relationship between the

:01:44.:01:48.

communities has improved. During their annual marching parades,

:01:48.:01:53.

tensions are still high. Marches by Protestant and Catholic groups

:01:54.:01:58.

happen right across the UK. But they are a huge part of history and

:01:58.:02:01.

culture in Northern Ireland and often provoke anger. That is

:02:01.:02:05.

because the BRITs frequently take marchers through areas of the city

:02:05.:02:08.

that are traditionally home to the other side. The problems this week

:02:08.:02:13.

stem from a march that happened in July, when a parading a loyalist

:02:13.:02:17.

band was filmed outside a church playing a song that Catholics find

:02:17.:02:20.

offensive. Tensions have been growing ever since and boiled over

:02:20.:02:26.

on Sunday. We spoke to a BBC reporter in Belfast to find out if

:02:26.:02:29.

the clashes will continue. violence of the last couple of

:02:29.:02:33.

nights has been particularly nasty, with police warning somebody could

:02:33.:02:37.

get killed if it doesn't stop. There is another big march planned

:02:37.:02:41.

for Belfast at the end of the month. That is why local politicians know

:02:41.:02:45.

that they've got to try to find a solution, and fast. A commission

:02:45.:02:49.

was set up in 1998 to oversee the parades and try to prevent violence

:02:49.:02:54.

on both sides. It has had an effect. Clashes like the ones we have seen

:02:54.:02:59.

this week are rare. Police are saying they have already arrested

:02:59.:03:02.

some rioters. They are bracing themselves for another night of

:03:02.:03:07.

trouble. It seems even the biggest movie

:03:07.:03:11.

megastars had problems growing up. Keira Knightley has revealed how

:03:11.:03:16.

having to learn her lines helped her cope with dyslexia. She is

:03:16.:03:20.

promoting her new film, Anna Karenina. She says having to look

:03:20.:03:24.

at Scripts gave her extra focus. think dyslexia is one of those

:03:25.:03:28.

things that is like a wall in front of you. It's very, very difficult

:03:28.:03:34.

to see over it. It is hard work, but it does not mean you are stupid.

:03:34.:03:37.

It means you work in a different way and you have to find a

:03:37.:03:42.

different way you work in. There are not many bigger fans of a milky

:03:42.:03:48.

brew than CBBC's Iain and Hacker. Like most of us who have built on

:03:48.:03:53.

our cereal, they don't think about how it made its way to the

:03:53.:03:57.

breakfast table. But it's been the centre of a storm between farmers

:03:57.:04:01.

and the companies they sell to. Today they agreed on a new code of

:04:01.:04:05.

practice which should mean they are finally making some progress.

:04:05.:04:10.

The British countryside. It might appear a peaceful place, but this

:04:10.:04:15.

summer it has been at the centre of a very noisy row. Dairy farmers

:04:15.:04:20.

have been leaving the field to protest about the price of milk.

:04:20.:04:23.

Earlier this summer, three of the main processing companies that buy

:04:23.:04:27.

milk from farmers and sell it to shops said they were going to cut

:04:27.:04:31.

the price they paid farmers by up to four pence a litre. A small

:04:31.:04:36.

price that makes a big difference. One litre of milk costs farmers 30p

:04:36.:04:41.

to produce. On average, the companies that buy it only paid and

:04:41.:04:46.

26p. That means they are losing money. Added to that, the cost of

:04:46.:04:50.

feeding animals has gone up. It means lots of dairy farms are

:04:50.:04:54.

struggling and hundreds have had to close. Today's code is an agreement

:04:54.:04:58.

between farmers and milk processing companies. They have both agreed to

:04:58.:05:02.

work more closely. It should mean that they get more notice about

:05:02.:05:06.

price changes and will be able to shop around for the best deal.

:05:06.:05:09.

Farmers are telling me they want transparency. They want to

:05:09.:05:13.

understand why they get the price they do for milk. The voluntary

:05:13.:05:16.

code of practice is a massive step forward for that. Today's news does

:05:16.:05:19.

not necessarily mean that the milk that you bite will get more

:05:19.:05:24.

expensive. Some supermarkets like ASDA and Morrisons had agreed to

:05:24.:05:27.

pay more for their milk. Today's coat might not solve all the

:05:27.:05:32.

problems. But, as milk keeps making the headlines, farmers are hoping

:05:32.:05:39.

that people will think more about how milk makes its way to their

:05:39.:05:43.

fridge. Let's get you up to date with the

:05:43.:05:47.

action from day six at the Paralympic Games. Six medals for

:05:47.:05:51.

Paralympics GB so far. There was bronze in the Boccia and Daniel

:05:51.:06:01.
:06:01.:06:02.

Brown took gold in the archery. Sophie Wells picked up a silver in

:06:02.:06:06.

the dressage. Ellie Simmonds, the poster girl of Paralympics GB, will

:06:06.:06:11.

be in action tonight looking to secure her third gold medal.

:06:11.:06:17.

Earlier this morning, Prince Harry was in the crowd, cheering hair on.

:06:17.:06:22.

A wheelchair fencing got under way today. Gabby Downs is just 14 and

:06:22.:06:31.

will be going for gold. We have signed up Great Britain's touche-

:06:31.:06:34.

ing teenager to tell you about her sport.

:06:34.:06:38.

Wheelchair fencing is different because we are clamped into the

:06:38.:06:45.

frame. We cannot move. Also, we have a different target area. In

:06:45.:06:48.

able-bodied fencing, you could hit the whole body. In a wheelchair

:06:48.:06:55.

fencing, you can only hit the upper body. You hit the opponent with the

:06:55.:06:59.

edge of your blade, which then goes through the wire into my box. It

:06:59.:07:06.

lights up when you hit the opponent. By Jack it stops me getting hurt

:07:06.:07:13.

when I get hit. -- my jacket stops me getting hit. I got into fencing

:07:13.:07:18.

by going to a sports camp for children with disabilities. I got

:07:18.:07:23.

talent-spotted. I was asked to do fencing and I thought it was

:07:23.:07:27.

something to do with fences! I had a go and I realised what it was and

:07:28.:07:33.

now I cannot live without it. The thing I am most excited about his

:07:33.:07:37.

staying in the athletes village and living for a week there with all of

:07:37.:07:40.

the different countries and sports. Also, being able to compete at such

:07:40.:07:45.

a high level for the first time. People should watch because it is a

:07:45.:07:48.

fast and exciting sport. There is always something happening with not

:07:48.:07:54.

many breaks. You might even see me there.

:07:54.:07:59.

Paralympic GB are in second place, with a total of 69 medals. 20 of

:07:59.:08:09.
:08:09.:08:09.

them are gold medals. China are One Direction fans can breathe a

:08:09.:08:13.

sigh of relief. The boy band have won a court battle to keep their

:08:13.:08:18.

name. A punk band in the US, also called One Direction, said they had

:08:18.:08:22.

the name first. They have agreed to rebrand the band and they will now

:08:22.:08:26.

be called Uncharted Shores. It doesn't have the same ring to it!

:08:26.:08:31.

It's not the first time that an X Factor group has got into trouble

:08:31.:08:35.

over their name. Little Mix had to change from Rhythmix after finding

:08:35.:08:38.

out that a music charity had the name.

:08:38.:08:41.

I'd like to introduce you to my friend the funnel web spider, which

:08:41.:08:45.

happens to be the deadliest in the world. Usually, the advice is not

:08:45.:08:49.

to get too close. Now people in Australia are being asked to try

:08:49.:08:55.
