Morning, guys, Ricky here with your Newsround

this Saturday morning.

Coming up!

We check out the next big Saturday night singing show!

And what've you got planned for the sunny weather?

First up, it's the Queen's official birthday today.

To celebrate the day, Trooping the Colour will take place

later with Prince William playing his part -

here he is rehearsing earlier in the week.

400 musicians, 200 horses and 1,000 troops take part.

The Queen has also given out special honours today,

with Harry Potter author JK Rowling getting a special Companion

of Honour Award for services to literature.

It's going to be a scorcher of a weekend with loads of sunshine

for many parts of the country.

And we want to know what YOU'VE got planned to enjoy the good weather.

Maybe a BBQ, maybe meeting your friends in the park,

or even heading to the seaside?

Well, head on over to Newsround online and let us know

what you've got planned.

Now could this guy be on his way back to the Premier League?

Apparently Cristiano Ronaldo wants to leave Real Madrid.

The former Manchester United forward has had an amazing few seasons -

winning three Champions Leagues and breaking loads of goal-scoring

records, but he's been accused of not paying the right amount

of money to the Spanish government - an accusation that is making him

think about his future there.

Are you enjoying the Voice Kids but missing Britain's Got Talent?

Well, a brand new singing show starts tonight on BBC 1.

30 choirs and singing groups will be battling it out

for a big prize of ?50,000.

Martin's got this one.

This is Pitch Battle!

Expect colourful costumes, cool dance moves, and

some amazing vocals.

So, let's find out what Pitch Battle is all about.

# Makes me feel this way!

It is vocal groups, amazing vocal groups,

very varied vocal groups, from Gospel choirs to a cappella,

competing, basically, to be crowned the best vocal group

of Pitch Battle.

Mel Giedroyc will be joined by judges choirmaster Gareth Malone

and American singer Kelis, so get your voices ready

to sing along this weekend.

Last up, why did the sea lion cross the road?

To stop traffic, of course!

This pretty large mammal was caught on camera right in the middle

of a main road in Chile, South America.

Apparently sea lions sometimes go off on an adventure

searching for food.

That's all from me, Newsround's back at 11.50.

of the day's stories.
