Who will be the next Pope? The selection process and what happens next

When a Pope dies or steps down, the new Pontiff is chosen by a group of cardinals who form a papal conclave or voting assembly. In a highly secretive process, they will vote by writing the name on paper and will continue four rounds of voting daily until a two-third majority is gained. The ballots are burnt after voting, with white smoke indicating they have picked the next Pope. Al Jazeera’s Rory Challands gives the details on who could be next.
