Hi, I'm Ayshah, and this is Monday afternoon's Newsround.

0:00:040:00:06

Coming up in the next few minutes...

0:00:060:00:10

The Duchess of Cambridge is pregnant again.

0:00:100:00:14

The Red Arrows celebrate the opening of the UK's tallest bridge.

0:00:140:00:18

There's going to be another royal baby.

0:00:270:00:28

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are having their third child.

0:00:280:00:31

The news was announced earlier today.

0:00:310:00:36

Kensington Palace posted this.

0:00:360:00:39

And the Internet did this!

0:00:390:00:41

It's true, #royalbaby.

0:00:410:00:46

Prince George and Princess Charlotte are going to

0:00:460:00:48

have a new brother or sister.

0:00:480:00:51

And the Queen says she's delighted.

0:00:510:00:53

And Prince Harry said this.

0:00:530:00:55

Fantastic.

0:00:550:00:56

Great.

0:00:560:00:57

Very, very happy for them.

0:00:570:01:01

So with royal baby number three on the way, we have some questions.

0:01:010:01:05

Will the baby be king or queen one day?

0:01:050:01:07

Unlikely.

0:01:070:01:11

But they will be born fifth in line to the throne and they will bump

0:01:110:01:15

Prince Harry out of the top five.

0:01:150:01:16

If it's a boy, it'll be the first time a girl, Princess Charlotte,

0:01:160:01:21

has been ahead of a boy to be the leader of the Royal family.

0:01:210:01:24

Will there be any more royal babies for William and Kate?

0:01:240:01:27

Well, the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh had four children.

0:01:270:01:32

William's great, great, great, great grandmother,

0:01:320:01:35

Queen Victoria, had nine, so who knows?

0:01:350:01:39

And the huge question, what will the baby be called?

0:01:390:01:44

Loads of people have already been guessing.

0:01:440:01:46

Alice was a favourite for a girl last time.

0:01:460:01:51

Freddie, Alexander and Frederick are all names that came up for a boy.

0:01:510:01:54

So wow, what an exciting week for Prince George.

0:01:540:01:56

On Thursday he starts a new school.

0:01:560:02:01

And now the fantastic news, he will have another

0:02:010:02:03

little sister or brother.

0:02:030:02:06

Congrats, Duke and Duchess, from everyone at Newsround.

0:02:060:02:11

And while that announcement was happening, the baby's great

0:02:110:02:14

grandma was officially opening the new Queensferry Crossing.

0:02:140:02:18

Yes, the Queen was there at this giant bridge linking Edinburgh

0:02:180:02:21

and Fife in Scotland.

0:02:210:02:22

Check this out.

0:02:220:02:25

The Queen has cut a fair few ribbons in her time,

0:02:290:02:32

but not many as big as this one.

0:02:320:02:35

Schoolchildren cheered as she officially opened

0:02:350:02:39

the new Queensferry Crossing, a huge 2.7 kilometre bridge

0:02:390:02:42

connecting Edinburgh and Fife in Scotland.

0:02:420:02:47

First Minister, the Duke of Edinburgh and I are delighted to be

0:02:470:02:49

able to join you and the people of Scotland to celebrate this

0:02:490:02:52

extraordinary achievement.

0:02:520:02:57

After an opening ceremony with Scotland's First Minister,

0:02:570:02:59

Nicola Sturgeon, the Queen was treated to a fly

0:02:590:03:02

past by the Red Arrows.

0:03:020:03:06

She and her husband, Prince Philip, were driven across the bridge

0:03:060:03:09

but these are the only cars that will get to travel on it

0:03:090:03:12

from now until Thursday.

0:03:120:03:15

That's because since the weekend the crossing has been shut

0:03:150:03:18

to traffic to let people walk across it and get a look

0:03:180:03:20

at the incredible views on foot.

0:03:200:03:24

Tomorrow kids in the area will get their chance to cross

0:03:240:03:26

the bridge and Newsround will be joining them.

0:03:260:03:31

OK, so tonight is a busy one for most of the UK

0:03:310:03:34

when it comes to football.

0:03:340:03:37

England hope to take a big step towards qualifying for next year's

0:03:370:03:40

World Cup tonight when they play Slovakia.

0:03:400:03:41

They beat Malta 4-0 on Friday.

0:03:410:03:44

If they win later, it would move them five points clear

0:03:440:03:47

of second-placed Slovakia with just two games to go.

0:03:470:03:51

Scotland play Malta and are looking to keep alive their hopes

0:03:510:03:53

of qualifying for the World Cup.

0:03:530:03:57

Scotland go into the game third in Group F, four points behind

0:03:570:04:00

Slovakia and six behind England.

0:04:000:04:04

And Northern Ireland play the Czech Republic in Belfast.

0:04:040:04:06

A draw is enough for a play-off spot.

0:04:060:04:08

They're seven points clear of tonight's opponents with only

0:04:080:04:11

three games to play in Group C.

0:04:110:04:15

A nun from Colombia will perform in front of the Pope

0:04:180:04:20

when he visits her country later this week.

0:04:200:04:24

But Sister Maria isn't your average nun.

0:04:240:04:27

Rather than singing hymns, she's going to be rapping!

0:04:270:04:31

She says the cool thing about rap is that the words "stick

0:04:310:04:34

in your head easily".

0:04:340:04:40

She

0:04:400:04:40

She is

0:04:400:04:40

She is supercool!

0:04:400:04:41

Now, for those of you who went back to school for the first

0:04:410:04:44

time since the holidays, we hope you had a great time.

0:04:440:04:47

But if you were a little nervous, or if you don't start

0:04:470:04:50

until later this week and would like some advice,

0:04:500:04:52

just head to Newsround online.

0:04:520:04:53

There's loads of stuff to make sure you have some fun at school.

0:04:530:04:56

That's all your stories for this Monday.

0:04:560:04:58

Newsround's back at 7.40am tomorrow morning with Ricky.

0:04:580:04:59

Have you got a super skill or hidden talent?

0:05:050:05:07

Perhaps you're a super-fan of a pop star or celeb?

0:05:070:05:09

Oh, maybe you'd love to get your own back on a friend or family member.

0:05:090:05:12

Or give someone the best day of their life.

0:05:120:05:15

Are you nodding at the telly right now?

0:05:150:05:17

Great! Then CBBC wants to hear from you, cockers.
