It's Thursday 11th October. You're watching Newsround with me, Leah.

:00:11.:00:14.

And me, Nel. Stick around as we have a jam-packed show for you

:00:14.:00:16.

today including some of this: Newsround speaks to the Prime

:00:16.:00:26.
:00:26.:00:27.

Minister about plans to remember the First World War. Olly Murrs

:00:27.:00:30.

tells us why The X Factor isn't The Fix Factor.

:00:30.:00:40.
:00:40.:00:51.

Hayley's finding out the secrets First, it's being described as the

:00:51.:00:56.

biggest doping scandal ever to hit the world of sport. The seven-times

:00:56.:00:58.

Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong has been accused of

:00:58.:01:02.

taking drugs to help him win. The US anti-doping agency say they have

:01:02.:01:05.

proof that he cheated on a massive scale, and I've been finding out

:01:05.:01:14.

Lance Armstrong. He's been called a sporting legend and a hero. He won

:01:14.:01:17.

the Tour de France seven times, six of those victories after beating

:01:17.:01:26.

cancer. Armstrong created these LIVE-STRONG yellow wrist bands.

:01:26.:01:29.

They became huge fashion items and raised lots of money for his

:01:29.:01:32.

charity. Well, today's report could wipe all of this away.

:01:32.:01:35.

Armstrong has already been given a lifetime ban from cycling, and has

:01:35.:01:41.

had his Tour de France titles taken The US anti-doping agency say they

:01:41.:01:48.

have clear evidence that Armstrong They also say that it was the most

:01:49.:01:50.

sophisticated, professional and successful doping program the sport

:01:51.:01:58.

has ever seen. Today's news is covering the front and back pages.

:01:58.:02:00.

There are claims Lance carried out blood transfusions in hotel rooms

:02:00.:02:05.

to hide traces of drugs in his body. The report also says he bullied his

:02:05.:02:15.
:02:15.:02:16.

teammates into taking banned A large number of former team-mates

:02:16.:02:21.

have come forward to say that they have seen him using drugs, and they

:02:21.:02:25.

have suggested that the use of drugs was not limited just to Lance

:02:25.:02:32.

Armstrong himself. It's been a brilliant summer for Britain's

:02:32.:02:35.

cyclists, from Bradley Wiggins on the road to Chris Hoy in the

:02:35.:02:38.

velodrome. Lots of people say that the sport has moved on from the

:02:38.:02:41.

days of performance-enchancing drugs. All I know is that we are

:02:41.:02:43.

all racing clean. It was a different sport back then.

:02:43.:02:47.

Lance Armstrong denies that he ever did anything wrong, but he says he

:02:47.:02:49.

won't fight against the charges any more. The American became famous

:02:49.:02:52.

for an amazing sporting comeback. These claims might be too damaging

:02:52.:02:58.

2014 will mark an important anniversary - 100 years since the

:02:58.:03:03.

First World War. Today the Prime Minister, David Cameron, told

:03:03.:03:08.

Newsround his plans to mark the day of remembrance. In a moment we'll

:03:08.:03:11.

hear from the Prime Minister. But first I've been looking at why

:03:11.:03:17.

people should care about something It was known as the Great War. 135

:03:17.:03:22.

countries fought in it, and more than 15 million people died. It

:03:22.:03:29.

started between the major powers in Europe on July 28th 1914. Back then,

:03:29.:03:31.

countries like Britain and Germany had great empires controlling large

:03:31.:03:36.

parts of the world. Soldiers came from as far as India, Australia and

:03:36.:03:41.

South Africa to fight. It was also the first war that used modern

:03:41.:03:46.

inventions like tanks, machine guns and aeroplanes. One hundred years

:03:46.:03:49.

on, the graves of those who died are still visited by hundreds of

:03:49.:03:59.
:03:59.:04:03.

I always think that a country that forget its past has no future. I

:04:03.:04:09.

think we have to pause to reflect. All we are asking for his two

:04:09.:04:17.

minutes a year to pause and reflect on the sacrifices made by people.

:04:17.:04:20.

To prepare for the anniversary of the First World War, people in the

:04:20.:04:24.

UK have been asked how they want to make it special. Eight out of ten

:04:24.:04:27.

say we should ring bells across the country, and even postpone sporting

:04:27.:04:32.

events as a mark of respect. think it would be quite important.

:04:32.:04:36.

It would be like this was, emotional, but nice, because it

:04:36.:04:41.

will be paying you respect. really catches your attention and

:04:41.:04:44.

makes you think about what people were really fighting about and if

:04:44.:04:48.

it was worth it. Well, in the last few hours, Hayley interviewed the

:04:48.:04:50.

Prime Minister, David Cameron, at the Imperial War Museum in London.

:04:50.:04:53.

He told Newsround how his great grandfather fought in the Second

:04:53.:04:56.

World War, and how he plans to spend �50 million to remember the

:04:56.:05:06.
:05:06.:05:08.

It's very rare that we get the chance to speak to a prime minister,

:05:08.:05:15.

but me, Jacob and Chelsea are going to ask him a few questions. Hello,

:05:15.:05:19.

nice to meet you. I think there are things to learn from the First

:05:19.:05:25.

World War and the Second World War. How did we allow the breakdown of

:05:25.:05:28.

diplomacy in countries that were neighbours and quite good friends,

:05:28.:05:33.

that they would go towards such a death toll. We must never stop

:05:33.:05:37.

learning from history. Well, today, we've been asking you on the

:05:37.:05:43.

Newsround website how we should remember the First World War. A lot

:05:43.:05:47.

of you guys have been in touch. Alicia in Slough wants a street

:05:47.:05:50.

party with stalls selling poppies, and thinks there should be a guest

:05:50.:05:53.

of honour like the Queen. And Saiba from Manchester thinks we should

:05:53.:05:56.

wear red and black clothes to show our respect to the people who died

:05:56.:06:03.

in World War One. Moving on now. A bit of sport now,

:06:03.:06:06.

and they've been winning games left, right and centre, and have won more

:06:06.:06:09.

titles than any other British Premier League team. Last night,

:06:09.:06:11.

Arsenal ladies retained their Continental Cup crown with a 1-0

:06:11.:06:14.

victory over Birmingham City, with midfielder Kim Little hitting the

:06:14.:06:19.

late winner. So, for a team that doesn't always gets its fair share

:06:19.:06:22.

of the limelight, we sent Hayley along to find out the secret of

:06:22.:06:32.
:06:32.:06:35.

If you are an Arsenal fan, you might be feeling let down after the

:06:35.:06:40.

last few tees -- seasons. Unless, of course, you are an Arsenal

:06:40.:06:50.
:06:50.:06:59.

They have won 12 women's Premier League titles, 11 FA Cups and 10

:06:59.:07:03.

Premier League Cups. That means they have won more titles than any

:07:03.:07:07.

other British Premier League football team. Can you tell me why

:07:07.:07:15.

you are so successful? We trained hard, listen to our coaches. And we

:07:15.:07:20.

enjoyed ourselves on the pitch. have got special players that can

:07:20.:07:26.

go and win football teams. We managed to gel as a team, and that

:07:26.:07:30.

works of the pitch as well as on the pitch. But although they're so

:07:30.:07:33.

successful, women's football is just not as popular as men's and

:07:33.:07:39.

that means the players don't get as much support or as much money.

:07:39.:07:45.

have something like 600 people here today, whereas the men would get

:07:45.:07:49.

60,000. So that tells you where the money is coming from and where it

:07:49.:07:56.

is going. Kelly Smith, had she been born male, with her talent, would

:07:57.:08:01.

probably be on the same salary as a van Persie. We have already seen

:08:02.:08:06.

women's football on BBC One and BBC Two this year, and the Olympics

:08:06.:08:10.

shone a massive light on the things they can do. But from what I have

:08:10.:08:14.

seen today, the Arsenal Ladies can certainly teach the boy is a thing

:08:14.:08:18.

or two. Thank you very much. Finally: Olly

:08:18.:08:21.

Murs says he's frustrated that people are accusing the X Factor of

:08:21.:08:24.

faking things for extra drama. He was speaking about last week's

:08:24.:08:27.

incident in which judge Louis Walsh caused Gary Barlow to stormed off

:08:27.:08:36.

live on air. Did you see it? It was amazing. There have been over 1,000

:08:36.:08:39.

complaints from viewers about the show this season, but the former

:08:39.:08:44.

contestant and presenter told Joe it's not rigged or staged. Does it

:08:44.:08:48.

frustrate you and people say that it is reg? Yes, because I have been

:08:48.:08:54.

part of the show. It does get feisty. But it is about the

:08:54.:08:57.
