It's Tuesday, 20th November. I'm Nel. And I'm Ricky. Here's what's

:00:08.:00:13.

coming up in the next nine minutes. What next for Becks when he leaves

:00:13.:00:17.

Joe meets some very furry firefighters.

:00:17.:00:21.

And stuck Santa! We'll see if he claws his way out later in the show.

:00:21.:00:31.
:00:31.:00:41.

This is Newsround. But first, should women be allowed

:00:41.:00:44.

to become Bishops? That's what the Church of England is set to decide

:00:44.:00:48.

within the next hour. At the moment, women are only allowed to be

:00:49.:00:51.

priests, and there's been a big debate about whether they should be

:00:52.:00:56.

able to take the next step up. I've been looking at both sides of the

:00:56.:01:02.

argument. Throughout history women have had to fight to be seen as

:01:02.:01:08.

equal to men. Because of that, we can now vote, join the Army, we can

:01:08.:01:12.

even be Prime Minister. One thing women still can't do in England is

:01:12.:01:17.

be a bit. That all could change today as the leaders of the Church

:01:17.:01:22.

of England vote on the issue. It's 20 years since women were

:01:22.:01:25.

allowed to become priests. Some say there is though reason they

:01:25.:01:29.

shouldn't be allowed to take up the next step: We've got a lot of young

:01:29.:01:33.

women growing up in the Church. The message we are giving to them is we

:01:33.:01:37.

only want you to prepare the altar, put the flowers on, make the tea,

:01:37.:01:41.

clean the church, but that's all you're good for that. Is an

:01:41.:01:45.

unacceptable message. But many in the Church disagree over the issue.

:01:45.:01:49.

Why can't a woman be a Bishop or a priest? I believe that a woman can

:01:49.:01:54.

be no more a priest than I can be a mother. It is as basic to nature

:01:54.:01:58.

and to the way God ordered things as that. But they are allowed to

:01:58.:02:01.

become priests at the moment, so what's the problem with that?

:02:01.:02:06.

only do we not believe that women can be ordained as priests, or we

:02:06.:02:12.

have grave doubts about it, we must have equally grave doubts that they

:02:12.:02:17.

can be Bishop. The Church of England has the keen as its head.

:02:17.:02:21.

It is split into different areas known as diocese. Each area is run

:02:21.:02:25.

by a priest. The Church of England is part of a wider community, the

:02:25.:02:29.

Anglican church, which has tens of millions of followers worldwide. It

:02:29.:02:32.

may seem triesing that when it comes to being a Bishop men and

:02:32.:02:36.

women aren't seen as equals. But the Church of England is considered

:02:36.:02:40.

to be way ahead of other religions when it comes to giving women power.

:02:40.:02:44.

If the vote goes through today it could mean that we see female

:02:44.:02:48.

Bishops by 2014. On the Newsround website today your

:02:48.:02:56.

thoughts have been flooding in about this guy's next move. We've

:02:56.:03:01.

had so many comments. Manchester United says Benjamin in Liverpool

:03:01.:03:06.

says Kieran in if West Midlands. And we've got Chelsea, say Ashley

:03:06.:03:09.

and Matthew. They're all answering the big question: What next for

:03:09.:03:11.

David Beckham? It's after the former England captain announced

:03:11.:03:21.

he's leaving his club, LA Galaxy, in America next month. David

:03:21.:03:27.

Beckham, where is he heading next? The most famous man in sport is on

:03:27.:03:35.

the move. Real Madrid, AC Milan and LA Galaxy. He was once England's

:03:35.:03:42.

Captain. David Beckham started his career as a 14-year-old trainee

:03:42.:03:45.

here at Manchester United. The midfielder went on the make 398

:03:45.:03:50.

appearances for the club, winning six Premier League titles a

:03:50.:03:54.

Champions League and the attention of the world. At 37 Becks is

:03:54.:03:57.

certainly no spring chicken. He isn't quite ready to hang up his

:03:57.:04:07.
:04:07.:04:17.

boots just yet, but in a statement So where next? I've come down to

:04:18.:04:22.

the BBC sports HQ to find out what the footie experts think. Chris,

:04:22.:04:28.

what do we think of David Beckham's options? David Beckham is a massive

:04:28.:04:32.

name, a global brand. He has offers from Australia, from China, where

:04:32.:04:37.

he is a God. He's a God in Asia. He could play in the Premiership. He

:04:37.:04:41.

has plenty of options. For now he says he wants a new challenge and

:04:41.:04:49.

is keeping us all hanging. David's wife, Spice Girl Victoria Beckham

:04:49.:04:53.

has cracked America. Her fashion label is hugely successful. With

:04:53.:04:57.

New York as the fashion capital of the world she might hold the key

:04:57.:05:03.

that their next move. He's made it clear he isn't ready to quit the

:05:03.:05:07.

beautiful game just yet. Ricky, that voice, I don't know what to

:05:07.:05:17.
:05:17.:05:28.

say. I'm sorry about that. It Let's go to Pakistan now to update

:05:28.:05:31.

you on a story we told you about in September. A Christian schoolgirl

:05:31.:05:34.

who was accused of burning pages of a religious text book has been

:05:34.:05:37.

cleared of doing anything wrong. 14-year-old Rimsha Masih was facing

:05:37.:05:47.
:05:47.:05:47.

jail. Tulip Mazumdar is in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan.

:05:47.:05:52.

Some of Rimsha's neighbours had accused her after tearing pages out

:05:52.:05:56.

of a textbook which concern children use to learn about the

:05:56.:06:01.

Koran and setting fire to them. Doing anything bad to Islamic

:06:01.:06:05.

religious texts here in Pakistan is a very serious offence. Rimsha and

:06:05.:06:08.

her family have been in hiding because a small number of people

:06:09.:06:14.

here have threatened to hurt her. But now judges at a top court have

:06:14.:06:21.

decided there isn't enough evidence to charge Rimsha and she's been

:06:21.:06:24.

declared innocent. A religious leader has been accused of putting

:06:24.:06:29.

the burnt pages into Rimsha's bag so she would get into trouble. He

:06:29.:06:33.

will now face trouble. At the start of the show we showed

:06:33.:06:36.

you a very stuck Santa. He usually comes down the chimney, but Father

:06:36.:06:39.

Christmas got into trouble when he decided to abseil instead. He got

:06:39.:06:43.

his beard stuck in the rope trying to get into a shopping centre in

:06:43.:06:46.

Reading! Keep watching until the end of the programme to find out if

:06:46.:06:49.

he got down. Next, fire dogs. Not the name of a

:06:49.:06:51.

new Disney animation, but the new super-skilled detectives London

:06:51.:06:59.

Fire Brigade are looking to recruit. Joe's got this one. Arson is a big

:06:59.:07:02.

problem in London. Almost half of all fires are started deliberately

:07:02.:07:06.

in the capital, and catching criminals a big job. Before the

:07:07.:07:10.

police can investigate whether or not a fire was started deliberately,

:07:10.:07:16.

the Fire Brigade need to send in their crack team of vectors - Sam

:07:16.:07:21.

and Ross co. Sam and Ross co have been fire dogs at London Fire

:07:21.:07:27.

Brigade for eight years. It is their job to search fire-damaged

:07:27.:07:30.

build position find flammable substance which is may have been

:07:30.:07:35.

used to start a blais. There are only 14 fire dogs in the whole

:07:35.:07:39.

country. But soon they'll be retiring and the Fire Brigade are

:07:39.:07:43.

on the lookout for a new team of highly-skilled officers to replace

:07:43.:07:49.

them. First, they have to put protective equipment on. Here's the

:07:49.:07:58.

test. Mick is going to going to pour a tiny spot of substance on

:07:58.:08:07.

this rag. It is up to Sam to find That's amazing. What was that, 40

:08:07.:08:12.

seconds? 40 seconds to search the whole room. Sam is retiring. Will

:08:12.:08:19.

it be sad when he hangs occupy his boots? Very sad, he will want to

:08:19.:08:25.

carry on working but very the have to retire them at eight. Murphy is

:08:25.:08:29.

only a puppy but he is already auditioning. All the indications

:08:29.:08:34.

are good. He really wants to climb, jump, run around and get involved

:08:34.:08:43.

in what we're doing. Soon Sam and Rosco will be on the next call-out.

:08:43.:08:46.

Murphy could be part of the next generation of fire dogs.

:08:47.:08:49.

OK - Santa update time! And you can stop worrying. Phew! Rescuers
