:00:00. > :00:10.Hi, I'm Ricky, with your last Newsround of the day.

:00:11. > :00:14.First, we know a lot of you love to swim, but is there a pool close by

:00:15. > :00:16.that you can use? Well, Rebecca Adlington, Great Britain's four-time

:00:17. > :00:19.Olympic medallist, says she is worried about the future of swimming

:00:20. > :00:24.in this country because too many local pools are closing down. She

:00:25. > :00:29.says we may well be missing out on future champions. Nel has this

:00:30. > :00:33.story. She has won four Olympic medals, two

:00:34. > :00:36.gold and two bronze. But now Rebecca Adlington is worried that there

:00:37. > :00:45.won't be young swimmers following her example. Britain's most

:00:46. > :00:49.successful Olympic swimmer for 100 years says she is worried about the

:00:50. > :00:50.future of her sport due to the number of local pools closing down.

:00:51. > :01:10.She says: here, the local council says it is

:01:11. > :01:13.investing in new facilities. But it's not just future swimming champs

:01:14. > :01:17.that Adlington is worried about. Swimming is a sport which can save

:01:18. > :01:28.lives. So how important is swimming to these kids? It is fun, and you

:01:29. > :01:37.get a lot of exercise. I like to come and swim and learn, because if

:01:38. > :01:41.I could endanger I will know to do. It is quite fun. The Government says

:01:42. > :01:45.it's up to local councils to decide how they spend their money. But in

:01:46. > :01:47.many parts of the UK, residents are fighting plans to close community

:01:48. > :01:50.baths. Thanks, Nel. And many of you have

:01:51. > :01:52.been telling us on the Newsround website that your local pool is

:01:53. > :02:18.pretty important. Big movie news now, and James Bond

:02:19. > :02:21.is moving in with Doctor Who. Well, almost! Pinewood, the British

:02:22. > :02:25.company behind the 007 films, are setting up a new studio in the Welsh

:02:26. > :02:29.capital, Cardiff, where the Time Lord is based. Pinewood is taking

:02:30. > :02:36.over a former solar panel factory for Bond's new home.

:02:37. > :02:40.And before we go, there's a saying, "you can't teach an old dog new

:02:41. > :02:43.tricks". But can you teach them how to board? Well, these pet owners

:02:44. > :02:47.certainly think so. They took to the coast in Brazil to take part in the

:02:48. > :02:50.Stand Up Dogs championships. But don't worry, only dogs that could

:02:51. > :02:54.show they weren't afraid of the water were allowed to take part.

:02:55. > :02:57.That's all from me. Leah's back here at 7:40 tomorrow.
