Hey there, half-termers. School may be out this week, but Newsround is

:00:22.:00:26.

still very much on the ball. Sonali and Ricky in the studio with your

:00:26.:00:30.

headlines tonight. Coming up: The hunt is on to find a great

:00:30.:00:33.

white shark which killed a diver in Australia.

:00:33.:00:37.

And have you seen this satellite? If so, scientists want to know

:00:37.:00:41.

where. First to Turkey, where rescuers are

:00:41.:00:43.

searching for survivors after a big earthquake struck yesterday

:00:43.:00:47.

afternoon. The 7.2 magnitude quake hit the area called Van, in the

:00:47.:00:53.

east of the country near the border with Iran. 265 people are known to

:00:53.:00:57.

have died and more than 1,000 have been injured, but those numbers are

:00:57.:01:05.

expected to rise. Terrified but alive. After being

:01:05.:01:08.

trapped in a tiny space in freezing conditions, 13-year-old Yunus was

:01:08.:01:14.

pulled out from the rubble. Rescuers have been using picks,

:01:14.:01:20.

shovels, even their bare hands to look for survivors of the quake.

:01:20.:01:23.

Many people's homes were made of clay bricks so they didn't stand a

:01:23.:01:27.

chance. People are scared. Tens of thousands chose to spend the night

:01:27.:01:32.

outside in the freezing cold, worried about aftershocks. Food

:01:32.:01:35.

stations are being set up to help those who've been made homeless and

:01:35.:01:40.

water and blankets are being shipped out. Earthquakes are a big

:01:40.:01:44.

risk in Turkey because the country sits on fault lines. 12 years ago,

:01:44.:01:50.

two quakes killed almost 20,000 people. This time around, rescuers

:01:50.:01:55.

don't know how many survivors are still trapped. What they do know is

:01:55.:02:00.

time is running out to recover many more people from the rubble.

:02:00.:02:03.

Next, protestors camped outside one of the world's most famous churches

:02:03.:02:06.

- and one of London's top tourist attractions - say they could be

:02:06.:02:09.

there for several months. St Paul's Cathedral has been losing thousands

:02:09.:02:14.

of pounds a day since it closed its doors on Friday. Church bosses say

:02:14.:02:17.

it's not safe to let tourists in while there are so many people

:02:17.:02:23.

protesting outside. It's the first time the church has been shut since

:02:23.:02:26.

the Second World War. The protesters are unhappy with the way

:02:26.:02:29.

banks and governments around the world are using and spending money,

:02:29.:02:38.

and say they want things to change. Now, it's the result we can't stop

:02:38.:02:42.

talking about. A result that has rocked the Premier League and made

:02:42.:02:45.

quite a statement to the world. Everyone knew Manchester City were

:02:45.:02:48.

good - but no one thought they were good enough to beat the most

:02:48.:02:51.

successful team in Premier League history, 6-1. But they did. What

:02:51.:02:54.

makes the result so amazing are the stats. Anyone who isn't a United

:02:54.:02:58.

fan may want to hit record right now so you can use these facts to

:02:58.:03:03.

gloat. Let's do them in date order. First up, it's the worst defeat

:03:03.:03:06.

EVER for Manchester United in the Premier League. It gets worse. It's

:03:06.:03:11.

the worst loss for the Red Devils at their home ground since 1955.

:03:11.:03:14.

The most successful team in English footy haven't had six goals scored

:03:14.:03:18.

against them since 1930. And wait for it, it's the first time arch

:03:18.:03:23.

rivals Manchester City have scored six in the derby since 1926! Sir

:03:23.:03:27.

Alex Ferguson wasn't even born then. He has called the result his

:03:27.:03:37.
:03:37.:03:44.

''worst ever day'' at the club. is a defeat and a bad defeat. The

:03:44.:03:48.

impact will come from the impact -- from the embarrassment. We will

:03:48.:03:53.

expect an impact, without doubt there will be a response. City have

:03:54.:03:56.

now proved they're serious contenders for the Premier League

:03:56.:03:59.

title. We've been in Manchester to see how the results gone down.

:03:59.:04:03.

been supporting United since I was two, but this was the worst thing I

:04:03.:04:08.

could remember about it. It got to 5-1 and I turned it off, I couldn't

:04:08.:04:15.

watch any more. I think city can win the league this year. By miles.

:04:15.:04:20.

City will win the league, because they have got rue Strong players

:04:20.:04:28.

and a great manager. -- really strong players. Instead of going to

:04:28.:04:33.

school saying city have lost, we can go to school saying, we know we

:04:33.:04:35.

can beat you. Passengers in Bristol had a lucky

:04:35.:04:38.

escape today after the entire roof of their double decker bus was

:04:38.:04:44.

ripped off after they hit a tree. 18 people were hurt and seven had

:04:44.:04:49.

to be taken to hospital in the collision.

:04:49.:04:52.

Next, to a hunt that makes looking for a needle in a haystack an

:04:52.:04:55.

absolute doddle. Scientists are looking for whatever is left of

:04:55.:04:58.

this - a German satellite called ROSAT that crashed back to Earth

:04:58.:05:01.

yesterday. They reckon it probably broke into about 30 pieces and as

:05:01.:05:04.

there have been no reports of anyone being hurt, it may have

:05:04.:05:08.

landed somewhere in the ocean in South East Asia.

:05:08.:05:11.

We're taking you to Australia now, where the hunt is on to find a

:05:11.:05:14.

great white shark which killed a diver over the weekend. It's the

:05:14.:05:17.

third deadly attack off the western coast in the last two months, and

:05:17.:05:20.

scientists say it's possible all the victims were attacked by the

:05:20.:05:28.

George Wainwright was an experienced diver. The 32-year-old

:05:28.:05:32.

went into the sea this weekend but never made it back. He's the latest

:05:32.:05:36.

victim of a shark attack. It happened 500 metres off Rottnest

:05:36.:05:41.

Island in Australia. Sharks attacks do happen in this area, but what's

:05:41.:05:44.

strange is the number of attacks that have taken place in the past

:05:44.:05:49.

two months. Some people are wondering if one shark is to blame

:05:49.:05:53.

for all three deaths. There's now a catch-to-kill order to try to hunt

:05:53.:06:03.

it down. Within an hour of this being known, the fisheries minister

:06:03.:06:07.

issued an order to allow the fisheries officers to try to catch

:06:07.:06:11.

or destroy that shark. Sharks like the great white are protected

:06:11.:06:13.

species and aren't usually caught and killed. Conservationists say

:06:13.:06:16.

the government is over-reacting. They say it's impossible to tell

:06:16.:06:19.

which shark carried out the attack. They want people to be more careful

:06:19.:06:22.

in the sea. But with three deaths in two months, authorities say they

:06:22.:06:30.

need to protect the public before For the second week in a row, the X

:06:30.:06:34.

Factor lost out to Strictly when the two shows went head to head on

:06:34.:06:37.

Saturday night. Although the ITV show is still pulling in more

:06:37.:06:40.

viewers overall, Strictly on the BBC managed to pull in an extra 1.5

:06:40.:06:45.

million viewers while both shows overlapped for 15 minutes. This

:06:45.:06:49.

Sunday saw Sami Brookes pack her bags on the X Factor, and my

:06:49.:06:51.

favourite celeb impressionist - Rory Bremner - was voted off

:06:51.:06:56.

Strictly. Finally, it's nearly Halloween and

:06:56.:07:00.

what I want to know is, what will you do with your pumpkin? Over in

:07:00.:07:06.

America, this giant one came to a very messy end. They're also being

:07:06.:07:12.

used as footballs for elephants and orangutans at the Los Angeles Zoo.

:07:12.:07:17.

What is wrong with the traditional way of doing things?

:07:17.:07:19.
