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. |
