Newsround. Coming up: why 1D are taking an unusual stand against | :00:09. | :00:11. | |
school bullies. And the debate on kids' coaching | :00:11. | :00:21. | |
:00:21. | :00:22. | ||
First to Greece, where people watching TV last night got a bit of | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
a shock when the country's equivalent of the BBC was switched | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
off in the middle of a programme. The government pulled the plug on | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
the public funded ERT network, saying it wasted too much money. | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
It's sparked big protests and strikes across the country - another | :00:36. | :00:45. | |
reminder of the Greece's financial This was the moment the oldest TV | :00:45. | :00:51. | |
channel in Greece went off air. Turned off mid-show by the Greek | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
government - a drastic move to try and make savings by the people in | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
charge of a country gripped by massive money problems. Switching | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
off the channel was just another reminder of how bad things have got | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
for Greece. They've borrowed billions of pounds over the last ten | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
years and are desperately struggling to pay it all back. It's meant loads | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
of people losing jobs, schools and hospitals being closed and a huge | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
rise in homelessness- something Newsround witnessed first-hand when | :01:15. | :01:25. | |
:01:25. | :01:28. | ||
Leah went there in 2011. One of the signs of the big money troubles is | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
the rows of shops closed and buildings half finished. Now adding | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
their names to the list of unemployed are the 2,500 staff from | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
the TV station they turned off - the Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation, | :01:38. | :01:45. | |
or ERT. As of this evening, you will be seeing black on the channels, ERT | :01:45. | :01:51. | |
is closing. They've been suspended for now but many are expected to | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
lose their jobs permanently. Straight after the screens went | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
blank, people gathered outside the headquarters to protest. Journalists | :01:57. | :02:04. | |
from rival stations have showed their support by going on strike. | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
The government say ERT will re-launch but as a much smaller and | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
cheaper to run broadcaster. But for now it seems Greek people will have | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
to get used to more scenes like this, and TV pictures like this. | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
Next - One Direction have taken a unique stand against bullying - by | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
launching their own nail varnish. Yes, the boys have put their names | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
to the new 1D Plus OD range. Each member has their own colour. Zayn's | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
is green, Harry's blue and Niall is purple. They want kids in America to | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
carry them in their pencil cases to remind them to be nice to each | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
other. Failure at big tournaments is | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
something England footy fans have got pretty used to over the years. | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
But last night the next generation of stars suffered a big | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
embarrassment, losing their third straight game and going out of the | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
European U21 Championships. Manager Stuart Pearce blamed the players for | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
not being good enough - reigniting a big debate about the talent coming | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
through and the quality of kids' coaching. | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
Another tournament, another disappointment - losing to the | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
lowest ranked team competing and rock bottom of the group, with no | :02:53. | :03:01. | |
points. Is It's a result made all the more shocking by the fact that, | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
with the World Cup in Brazil exactly one year away, it was hoped some of | :03:05. | :03:12. | |
these guys were the big hopes to take England glory. Their failure's | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
sparked a much wider debate about whether coaching of kids in England | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
is up to scratch. Stuart Pearce's job was made harder across many | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
players withdrew, he had a squad in Israel, but the real issue is I this | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
play is good enough, are we producing enough skilful young | :03:30. | :03:40. | |
:03:40. | :03:41. | ||
players -- are English players good enough? The FA claim this is the | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
solution - St George's Park, a brand new coaching centre aimed at | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
developing the national youth teams and coaches. And it can't come soon | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
enough, with the number of young English players playing in the | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
Premier League reaching an all-time low last season. Of every minute of | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
every game played - English youngsters were on the pitch for | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
only 2% of the time. That's below countries like Germany and France, | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
nations with more recent success at major championships. Investment in | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
youth and success in championships is a problem affecting all the home | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
nations. But as far as England are concerned, the FA say the big prize | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
of winning a tournament could take 15-20 years to achieve. So there | :04:10. | :04:17. | |
could be lots more of this, and not much of this to look forward to. | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
England's women will be hoping to show the boys how it's done at their | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
own Euros in July. And we want your help to interview the coach Hope | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
Powell. Send your questions for Hope into the Newsround website. We'll | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
put the best ones to her next week. Finally Prince Charles and his wife, | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
the Duchess of Cornwall, have made a very usual Royal appearance - in the | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
Beano! The pair guest star in the latest edition of the famous comic, | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
during which they visit the notoriously rowdy Bash Street | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
School. Beano editor Craig Graham said Charles and Camilla were | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
thrilled to be featured in the long-running comic. | :04:48. | :04:51. |
