Good morning, I'm Ayshah, and I've got your Wednesday headlines. | :00:00. | :00:22. | |
A giant panda checking out her new home. | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
And the royals hit the DJ decks down under. This is Newsround. | :00:26. | :00:41. | |
First, to a very special birthday. 450 years ago today a man was born | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
who many say was the greatest writer ever to pick up a quill - playwright | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
William Shakespeare. Celebrations will be taking place up and down the | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
country to mark the anniversary, including a fireworks display in his | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
home town of Stratford-upon-Avon. He's credited with inventing | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
thousands of words we use today, like "swagger" and "fashionable", | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
but his legacy has far more to it than that, as Nel's been finding | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
out. Many people think William | :01:04. | :01:04. | |
Shakespeare was the greatest British writer of all time. We know that he | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
looks something like this, but because he worked so long ago much | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
of his life is still a mystery. Shakespeare wrote a block Astor | :01:11. | :01:12. | |
Place of his day, he wrote about good things and saplings, happy | :01:13. | :01:14. | |
things and scary things -- the blockbuster plays of his day. He | :01:15. | :01:20. | |
knew how to make people laugh and cry. You would sit and look at the | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
play and gasp. Shakespeare is thought to have invented over 2000 | :01:26. | :01:31. | |
words including horrid, lonely and majestic. He is also responsible for | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
phrases like in a pickle and vanished into thin a. Our language | :01:36. | :01:44. | |
would not be the same without him. Shakespeare is like learning a new | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
language when you read it. Shakespeare makes you laugh and | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
cry, that's important for a writer. Ray mac it has got old English, | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
which you may not understand. If you really think about it then you can | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
understand most of it. His work proves timeless. His plays and | :02:02. | :02:09. | |
hundreds of homes are taught in schools and performed in theatres | :02:10. | :02:21. | |
around the world. A day after David Moyes was sacked | :02:22. | :02:24. | |
as Manchester United manager the focus is now turning to who will | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
replace him. Ryan Giggs has been put in charge temporarily until the end | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
of the season with Netherlands boss Louis van Gaal and Borussia Dortmund | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
coach Jurgen Klopp some of the names suggested. But Bayern Munich manager | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
Pep Guardiola has ruled himself out of the job. | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
I am here, I am in Bayern Munich and I will stay two more years. We won | :02:41. | :02:50. | |
the Bundesliga, but I feel that our team can be better. | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
To last night's football, and Chelsea fought hard to hold Atletico | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
Madrid to a 0-0 draw in their Champions League semifinal first | :03:01. | :03:02. | |
leg. But at what cost? Goalkeeper Petr Cech took a tough fall in the | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
first half and had to be stretchered off. And captain John Terry also had | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
a nasty tumble after half-time and had to come off too. Both players | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
are out for the rest of the season, and Frank Lampard and John Obi Mikel | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
are suspended for next week's return leg too. | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
We had problems before the game, we had daughters during the game. We | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
lost for players during the game, two with injuries and two with | :03:29. | :03:40. | |
yellow cards. But we will fight. Sticking with sport, Newsround's off | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
to meet Andy Murray later today. And if you've ever wanted to ask him | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
anything now's your chance, because he's also taking part in a live | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
online chat. The Wimbledon Champion will be taking questions from | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
youngsters across the UK live at 2pm today. You can find out how to ask | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
him a question on the BBC Get Inspired website. | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
Now, to some DJ-ing Down Under for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. | :04:03. | :04:10. | |
They took to the decks while visiting a music project in Adelaide | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
on day 17 of their tour of Australia and New Zealand, though young Prince | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
George wasn't with them for this visit. The couple also watched rap, | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
hip hop and Aboriginal dance performances, and chatted to young | :04:21. | :04:21. | |
artists. Next, a female panda bred in | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
captivity has been successfully released into the wild in southwest | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
China. Zhang Xiang is enjoying her new surroundings and gaining weight. | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
It's part of a continuing programme, which aims to release more | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
captive-bred pandas into their natural habitats. Giant pandas are | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
one of the world's most endangered animals with only around 1,500 | :04:37. | :04:46. | |
living in the wild in China. As well as being Shakespeare's | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
birthday today, it's also St George's Day, celebrating the patron | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
saint of England. But how much do you know about St George? The | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
Newsround website is the place to go try our quiz all about him. | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
That's all from me, Leah's back in Newsround HQ this afternoon. | :05:01. | :05:02. |
