Hello, it's Saturday morning, I'm Leah and you're live | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Cuba watching Newsround because we have been giving exclusive access to | :00:00. | :00:22. | |
strictly. We will be speaking to all of the finalist -- keep watching. | :00:23. | :00:31. | |
First this morning, to a country where women | :00:32. | :00:33. | |
But now in Saudi Arabia some things may be about to change. | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
Today women there will be making history and are voting for the first | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
It's what women here in the UK fought for years to do. | :00:41. | :00:49. | |
But in Saudi Arabia, in the Middle East, voting has been | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
something that only men could do - but now things are about to change. | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
Haifa Al Habwabi was one of the first to put | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
For Saudi Arabia, we are really a small country, so for me | :01:04. | :01:11. | |
Sometimes you can see tears in my eyes because | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
Women will be able to vote and also stand for elections - | :01:16. | :01:25. | |
so they will decide how the streets are looked after and how | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
But they still can't vote in the big elections to decide | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
who will run their country, and it's the only place in the world | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
Women may now be able to vote in Saudi Arabia, but there | :01:38. | :01:45. | |
is a still a long way to go before women and men there are equal. | :01:46. | :01:55. | |
The Strictly semi final takes place tonight, | :01:56. | :01:57. | |
so we sent Ricky to the ballroom to chat with hot favourites | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
Georgia May Foote and Jay Mcguiness. | :02:01. | :02:02. | |
Georgia, I know you were in the dance off last week. | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
How did that feel to finally have that spotlight shining on you? | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
Just had to come back this week and try harder. | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
A bit like tonsillitis but your whole pharynx, | :02:18. | :02:27. | |
Did you think you would get to this point? | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
When I look back at week one and the absolute mess | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
And now my footwork has got sorted, I can't believe how well | :02:37. | :02:46. | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back right here at 11.45 - | :02:47. | :02:52. |
