:00:00. > :00:10.It's the weekend, Ayshah here with your headlines. Including a

:00:11. > :00:17.record-breaking Sport Relief total. We take a look at the loos of the

:00:18. > :00:20.future, that could change the world. First - just how important is your

:00:21. > :00:23.toilet to you? We're being completely serious here, because for

:00:24. > :00:27.lots of people around the world, a toilet is a luxury they don't have.

:00:28. > :00:30.It's thought that 2.5 billion people on Earth haven't got a working loo,

:00:31. > :00:34.and it means really serious diseases spread easily in poorer countries.

:00:35. > :00:38.Now a big event is taking place in India aiming to invent the toilet of

:00:39. > :00:44.the future, which could change the lives of billions.

:00:45. > :00:47.We use them every day and probably couldn't imagine life without one.

:00:48. > :00:50.But in the developing world, billions of people don't have

:00:51. > :00:53.toilets. One of the main problems is that in some countries, there simply

:00:54. > :00:57.isn't the water available to flush the waste away. Living without

:00:58. > :00:59.toilets can lead to poor health and really serious diseases such as

:01:00. > :01:05.cholera and typhoid. They're illnesses that we don't find in this

:01:06. > :01:08.country - and they can be deadly. That's why the richest man in the

:01:09. > :01:12.world, Microsoft founder Bill Gates is using his charity, the Bill and

:01:13. > :01:15.Melinda Gates Foundation, to set a challenge for inventors to come up

:01:16. > :01:28.with radical designs to make a new kind of loo that doesn't need fresh

:01:29. > :01:35.water to make it work. We use the contraption like this to

:01:36. > :01:49.carry the waste through the system. Solar power creates hot air. Then

:01:50. > :01:54.the sludge covers these balls. And then it goes into this bag.

:01:55. > :01:57.At the moment, these new toilet designs are still being developed

:01:58. > :02:00.but it's hoped that with loads of experts working together they'll

:02:01. > :02:02.invent a toilet of the future, to help make poorer countries healthier

:02:03. > :02:06.and safer places to live. It was a record-breaking total

:02:07. > :02:09.raised for Sport Relief last night - over ?51 million pounds! One of the

:02:10. > :02:13.highlights of the night was Clash of the Titans, which saw Seb Coe's team

:02:14. > :02:16.beat John Bishop's, going head to head with a sport packed programme

:02:17. > :02:18.of track cycling, rhythmic gymnastics and synchronised

:02:19. > :02:25.swimming. Even though her team lost, Helen Skelton said it was great fun.

:02:26. > :02:29.When they phoned me and Bish said "come and play on my team", I

:02:30. > :02:33.thought: yeah, all right, this will be a good laugh. But I didn't

:02:34. > :02:36.realise I'd have to swim against an Olympian. I was petrified to get in

:02:37. > :02:39.that pool alongside Amy Williams. But we had a really good time. Our

:02:40. > :02:43.rhythmic gymnastics was probably the highlight. I had to throw the ball,

:02:44. > :02:48.do a forward roll and catch it. The ball hit me on the backside, but I

:02:49. > :02:50.just styled it out and pretended I still had the ball!

:02:51. > :03:06.All today you've been telling us your favourite moments.

:03:07. > :03:13.Thanks so much for all those comments.

:03:14. > :03:17.Next, we're in the year of code - a big effort to get you guys learning

:03:18. > :03:20.the language of computers. One way is through code clubs - special

:03:21. > :03:24.after-school classes where experts teach how to build apps and make

:03:25. > :03:28.games! The aim is to get one in every single school - it's a big

:03:29. > :03:31.task that needs the help of a very important person.

:03:32. > :03:35.It was a very competitive line-up and an even tougher panel. Among the

:03:36. > :03:40.hopefuls to be patron of Code Club were: Skype founder, Niklas

:03:41. > :03:48.Zennstrom. Why would you like to work at Code Club?

:03:49. > :03:51.I made some software, called Skype. The brains behind YouTube, Chad

:03:52. > :03:54.Hurley. And even the man who invented the Web, Tim Berners-Lee.

:03:55. > :03:58.What would you bring to the table? I invented the World Wide Web.

:03:59. > :04:03.But they did not make the mark. Only one man did.

:04:04. > :04:04.I suppose I know some influential people.

:04:05. > :04:07.Like who? My mother.

:04:08. > :04:13.ALL: You're hired! Prince Andrew has been patron of

:04:14. > :04:17.Code Club since 2012. But how has he been doing?

:04:18. > :04:19.Since you were hired as patron of Code Club, what have you brought to

:04:20. > :04:22.the role? I have brought quite a lot,

:04:23. > :04:25.actually. Encouraging people to take up coding. And that's really

:04:26. > :04:32.important. Young people should look and see where their local Code Club

:04:33. > :04:36.is and join it. You were the first Royal to write

:04:37. > :04:45.some code. Have you talked any other Royals? I have not, as a matter of

:04:46. > :04:53.fact. That is partly because I have not had the time to do it. I work

:04:54. > :05:00.for Code Club two of them. Tell me about what you're doing.

:05:01. > :05:10.Well, we are trying to make this flapping bird. What else have you

:05:11. > :05:16.learned? I have learned to make games.

:05:17. > :05:22.From September, young people will be taught how to use code in class.

:05:23. > :05:25.Sport now: there's a massive showdown in the Premier League at

:05:26. > :05:28.lunch time. Arsenal against Chelsea will be Arsene Wenger's 1000th game

:05:29. > :05:33.in charge of the Gunners. He's called it the biggest game of the

:05:34. > :05:37.season for his side. Unfortunately, there is also a lot

:05:38. > :05:40.of suffering in 1000 games. What you want is the next moment of

:05:41. > :05:44.happiness. That means you're always looking forward to the next game,

:05:45. > :05:54.which will hopefully bring a moment of happiness.

:05:55. > :06:01.Last Newsround update before 2pm - see you then.
