:00:20. > :00:24.Hello, Team Newsround - welcome to your Thursday afternoon newsfest.

:00:24. > :00:26.I'm Ricky. And I'm Leah - and here's what we've got in store for

:00:26. > :00:30.you today. Find out why Leah's being followed

:00:30. > :00:36.around by phone zombies. And we see what happens when art

:00:37. > :00:40.But first to the fury that's been caused over those pictures of

:00:40. > :00:43.Prince Harry without his clothes on. The snaps were taken at a private

:00:43. > :00:47.party in a hotel and ended up online after an American gossip

:00:47. > :00:50.website published them. Millions of people around the world have

:00:50. > :00:55.already seen them, but Buckingham Palace has asked newspapers in this

:00:55. > :00:58.country not to publish them to respect Harry's right to privacy.

:00:58. > :01:02.I've been finding out why they're allowed to do that.

:01:02. > :01:05.What the palace say isn't fair is that if the photos of the Prince

:01:05. > :01:09.were put in newspapers for everyone to see, it would be an invasion of

:01:09. > :01:13.Prince Harry's privacy. There are laws in this country that should

:01:13. > :01:16.mean people have a right to keep details of their private lives just

:01:16. > :01:19.that - private. With so much interest in celebrities and cameras

:01:19. > :01:28.available on everyone's phones, anyone's got the ability to get

:01:28. > :01:31.snaps of people in the public eye, But when people are in private

:01:31. > :01:35.areas like their own home, they should have the right to keep what

:01:35. > :01:39.goes on there to themselves. So, because the snaps of the Prince

:01:39. > :01:42.were taken without his permission - in a hotel room, at a private party

:01:42. > :01:45.- then newspapers don't have the right to publish them.

:01:45. > :01:48.Earlier, I spoke to Paul Horrocks, who used to be the editor of the

:01:48. > :01:56.Manchester Evening News. I started by asking him whether famous people

:01:56. > :02:00.like Prince Harry can ever expect privacy. Everybody has a reasonable

:02:00. > :02:05.expectation of privacy. If you are going to breach that, if you are

:02:05. > :02:09.going to go against that rule, you've got to have a good reason to

:02:09. > :02:14.do it. That the reason normally is what they call the public interest.

:02:14. > :02:19.The public interest is about exposing wrongdoing, about exposing

:02:19. > :02:23.people who may mislead or tell lies. This has got nothing to do with

:02:23. > :02:27.that. But it is about what is and what is not private. People outside

:02:27. > :02:32.in the Street, celebrities or otherwise, the Royal Family or

:02:32. > :02:36.whoever, if it is a public place, they can be photographed. However,

:02:36. > :02:40.if they choose to be in a private place like a hotel room or office,

:02:40. > :02:43.somebody takes a picture, that is a problem.

:02:43. > :02:46.All day on the website we've been asking you whether you think camera

:02:46. > :02:56.phones are a good thing or whether they're bad for people's privacy.

:02:56. > :03:14.

:03:14. > :03:18.It's GCSE results day and thousands of teenagers in England, Wales and

:03:18. > :03:22.Northern Ireland had nervous moments opening envelopes. For the

:03:22. > :03:26.first time since the exams were brought in nearly 25 years ago, the

:03:26. > :03:29.number of A star to C grades has dropped. Some people say it's

:03:29. > :03:32.because there's pressure to be tougher on marking this year. By

:03:32. > :03:34.the time lots of you sit the exams, they'll be different. From

:03:34. > :03:40.September this year, there'll be less coursework and instead more

:03:40. > :03:42.focus on exams, as well as on spelling, punctuation and grammar.

:03:42. > :03:45.To South Africa now, where thousands of people have been

:03:45. > :03:49.attending special services to remember the 44 people who died

:03:49. > :03:53.during the recent protests there. Workers clashed with police at the

:03:53. > :03:57.Marikana platinum mine about their pay. Just a warning - you might

:03:57. > :04:00.find some of the details in my report upsetting.

:04:00. > :04:03.This kind of violence is something people in South Africa had hoped

:04:03. > :04:10.they'd put in the past. Last Thursday, 34 miners were killed by

:04:10. > :04:13.police at a town in the north-east of the country. The protests had

:04:13. > :04:18.been going on for a week, during which ten people and two policemen

:04:19. > :04:23.had already been killed. The miners are protesting about how much they

:04:23. > :04:26.get paid. They feel they should get more money for the work they do.

:04:26. > :04:30.Mining underground is a dangerous job and most of these miners are

:04:30. > :04:33.paid less than the average wage in the country. The police tried to

:04:33. > :04:36.keep the protest under control, but the situation turned violent.

:04:36. > :04:40.Protestors were armed with spears and big knives and are thought to

:04:40. > :04:43.have charged the police, who began firing their guns. People across

:04:43. > :04:53.the country are shocked and a big investigation has been launched to

:04:53. > :04:53.

:04:53. > :04:57.find out what happened. It is very heartbreaking for us to see them

:04:57. > :05:02.killing them like that. They are working hard and they work -- want

:05:02. > :05:05.money, but they can't get the money. This is a painful reminder of the

:05:05. > :05:08.years of apartheid in South Africa. Apartheid was a system that kept

:05:08. > :05:10.black and white people separate - with the whites in charge. The

:05:10. > :05:13.government ruled the country harshly and violent clashes between

:05:13. > :05:21.the police and the public were common. With more protests planned,

:05:21. > :05:28.leaders are worried there could be more violence. We believe that

:05:28. > :05:33.further deaths resulting from the protest, demonstrations, can be

:05:33. > :05:36.avoided. If only they would listen. Many workers still refuse to go

:05:36. > :05:39.back to work and with the mines losing business, there's no easy

:05:39. > :05:43.solution. But leaders say South Africa must learn lessons from its

:05:43. > :05:46.past and help people resolve their differences peacefully.

:05:46. > :05:49.OK, time to talk about the Paralympics. We're just days away

:05:49. > :05:53.from the opening ceremony and London is set to get even busier

:05:53. > :05:56.because it's thought these will be the first Paralympics to sell out.

:05:57. > :06:00.But if you're disabled, how easy is it to get to the Olympic Park?

:06:00. > :06:02.Hayley spent the day with a young wheelchair user and met up with

:06:02. > :06:12.Paralympic champion Tanni Grey- Thompson to put London's transport

:06:12. > :06:20.

:06:20. > :06:25.Hello, my name is Haley. Lovely to meet you. Tell me about yourself.

:06:25. > :06:28.Her my name is Callum, I'm 11 and I live in Purley and I have cerebral

:06:28. > :06:36.palsy so I have to be in a wheelchair. Her he is a difficult

:06:36. > :06:42.for you to get around? My dad has to lift me off. I can get a bit

:06:42. > :06:47.annoyed and frustrated. As a disabled person, you have to be

:06:47. > :06:51.quite patient, which I don't find easy. You have to plan ahead. When

:06:51. > :06:57.I'm on a train, I tell every single person in a uniform where I need to

:06:57. > :07:04.get off. It should be that you can go wherever you want with no

:07:04. > :07:11.trouble. London is famous for its red buses. What is your experience

:07:11. > :07:16.of them? I was in London once and we were standing in rain. The bus

:07:16. > :07:22.driver would not let us come on. He said there was no space for a

:07:22. > :07:27.wheelchair. My mum and dad were angry. It is not all about public

:07:27. > :07:35.transport. Sometimes pedestrian areas caused a problem. There's a

:07:36. > :07:41.big bug which might be wheelchair can't get over. -- bump. Can you

:07:41. > :07:46.see the Olympic rings? Yes. We have arrived at the Olympic Park. How do

:07:47. > :07:51.you feel it has gone? Better than I expected because they had ramps.

:07:51. > :08:01.you think this is especially for the Paralympics? Yes. They want to

:08:01. > :08:04.make it better for wheelchair users. What do you hope would happen?

:08:04. > :08:11.Want London to be more accessible. Make it easier for wheelchair users

:08:11. > :08:15.to get around. Thank you. Now, when things are damaged, like

:08:15. > :08:18.this holy painting of Jesus in a church in Spain, it's natural to

:08:18. > :08:22.want to fix them up. But for one woman with good intentions, things

:08:22. > :08:25.went a bit wrong. This is how the painting looked before it got

:08:25. > :08:30.painting looked before it got damaged. So she decided to tidy

:08:31. > :08:34.things up a bit, but this is what happened. The church reckon they

:08:34. > :08:44.should be able to patch it up, but maybe she should hold off any more

:08:44. > :08:45.

:08:45. > :08:48.maybe she should hold off any more running repairs. I like it now!
