Hi, I'm Hayley and

this is Newsround.

Keep watching for all of this.

# Stood a lonely cattle shed...#

We catch up with boys

from the King's College Choir.

And all the action from

the Last Jedi premiere!

What will you be doing

on Christmas Eve?

Watching festive films,

maybe putting out a mince pie

for Father Christmas?

Well, these boys have a very

important job to do before they can

go to bed.

They are singing for people

all around the world!

Let's meet them.

Hi, Newsround.

We sing in King's College choir

which started over 500

years ago.

Christmas is a very special time

for us because we sing

in a service called

Nine Lessons and Carols.

And it takes place right here in

King's College Chapel in Cambridge,

it first took place in 1918.

This service is broadcast live on

the radio in Christmas Eve

and millions of people listen to it

every year.

The service starts with a boy

singing a solo of Once In

Royal David's City.

Nobody knows who's going

to do the solo until

right before it begins

when the conductor

at somebody to do it.

Before the service I feel

excited and nervous.

Yeah, it's all mixed

emotions, really.

There is always something

to help you with

your nerves.

I usually take really deep

breath and think about how

amazing the service

is going to sound.

I used to love how I can just

imagine when we are singing people

just smiling on the other

side of the radio.

Before the service I feel proud

to sing with this choir

because it's really, really famous.

I feel really Christmassy because

it's just really building up to

Christmas.

We can't wait for Christmas Eve.

Merry Christmas Newsround.

Thanks, boys.

Next up, mobile phones in school -

should they be allowed?

In France a new law is aiming

to ban phones in primary

and secondary schools.

Kids wouldn't be able

to look at or touch them

until after school has finished.

Should that be the law here?

We'll want to know what you think.

Head to our vote at Newsround

online to have your say.

And now we're heading

to a galaxy far, far away.

Get your light sabers ready,

because Star Wars is back!

Ayshah's got more.

Watch out for the flashes.

Newsround.

May the Force be with you.

I only know one truth.

It's time for the Jedi to end.

Guess where we are,

we are at the Star Wars

European premiere!

CHEERING

I used to watch

Newsround all the time.

What do they have to look forward

to in this movie from you?

Some fun fights.

Some fun creatures I get

to work with, and, some

fun new spaceships.

They are the real fun stuff.

What does this film mean

for the new generation of fans?

These films from the beginning

were meant for children.

People forget that.

They say No, it is for

48-year-old nerds.

No, it's for children.

It just so happens that it appeals

to the child in all of us I

guess.

I was seven when I first saw

Star Wars and Princess

Leia meant the world to me,

because I hadn't seen many

iconic female superheroes.

And now I get to be part of a group,

a tribe of very powerful

female characters.

I've got my nephews here

who are young and they

are passionate Star Wars fans,

and they are the children

of my brother who's nearly 50

and he is the world's

greatest Star Wars fan.

So it is for such a wide audience.

Despite the

fact that I am in it I think

it is one of the best

Star Wars films ever made.

I can't wait for that!

That's all from me for now,

but I'm back with more top stories

in just over half an hour.

Bye bye.
