'Nerd' emoji: Why Teddy is fighting back against the image

Emojis are a great way to add personality to a text message, but one boy from Oxfordshire thinks there's one that needs to be changed.

Ten-year-old Teddy has started a petition (which is a written request signed by lots of people) asking tech company Apple to remove the "nerd glasses" emoji from its keyboard.

He first noticed the emoji when texting his cousin, and went on to kickstart the campaign with the help of his teacher.
