Good evening. This is BBC Newsline with Mark Carruthers and Donna | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
Traynor. The headlines this Wednesday evening. A 14-year-old | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
boy is accused of being the gunman in an attempted murder in west | 0:00:18 | 0:00:22 | |
Belfast. New searches are planned to find | 0:00:22 | 0:00:31 | |
the body of the murdered teenager Arlene Arkinson. A senior official | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
is suspended. I will have the latest. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
Funding the future - the innovative products like this seeking Dragons | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
Den-style backing. The man with "bobble-hat" is back | 0:00:39 | 0:00:43 | |
at Windsor Park. But will the Faroes Islands be a "banana-skin" | 0:00:43 | 0:00:50 | |
for Northern Ireland? And after a disappointing day, are | 0:00:50 | 0:00:54 | |
we going to be stuck under grey skies for the rest of the week? I | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
will have the details. A 14-year-old boy's been in court | 0:00:58 | 0:01:02 | |
charged with attempted murder. A 49-year-old man appeared on the | 0:01:02 | 0:01:07 | |
same charge. It relates to a shooting on the outskirts of West | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
Belfast earlier this week. Lisburn Magistrates' Court was told the boy | 0:01:10 | 0:01:14 | |
needs to be remanded in custody for his own safety because of a feud in | 0:01:14 | 0:01:21 | |
the traveller community. Kevin Sharkey reports from the court. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:27 | |
John Delaney was attacked at this caravan. This morning at Lisburn | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
magistrates' court, two people were charged with attempted murder. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:38 | |
Thomas Dalton, 49, was remanded in custody. A 14-year-old boy, a | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |
arrested with him, appeared in court alongside Thomas Dalton. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:46 | |
Police told the court they believe the person who fired the shot | 0:01:46 | 0:01:51 | |
during the attack and who was wearing a balaclava was the 14- | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
year-old but the defence said the description of the attacker given | 0:01:54 | 0:01:59 | |
by the police did not match the schoolboy. The police objected to | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
the schoolboy being granted bail because of what was described as | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
the extreme nature of the violence involved and the type of items | 0:02:05 | 0:02:10 | |
found by the police during searches. The police have searched a number | 0:02:10 | 0:02:16 | |
of areas during the attack. -- following the attack. And number of | 0:02:16 | 0:02:26 | |
0:02:26 | 0:02:27 | ||
Machetes and Blades have also been found in two vans. Applying for | 0:02:27 | 0:02:32 | |
bail this morning, the defence said an address could be provided for | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
the schoolboy well away from the travelling community. The boy's | 0:02:35 | 0:02:40 | |
mother, in the public gallery, cried. The police said the | 0:02:40 | 0:02:45 | |
schoolboy was vulnerable who could be encouraged to join what was | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
described as an escalating feud within the travelling community. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:53 | |
The defence was told there when no conditions the judge could impose | 0:02:54 | 0:03:02 | |
to protect the schoolboy. She refused bail. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
Two men handed themselves into police this afternoon in connection | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
with the attempted murder. They are now under arrest. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
A new search for the remains of the missing Castlederg girl Arlene | 0:03:12 | 0:03:16 | |
Arkinson will start at the end of this month. The 15-year-old | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
disappeared in 1994. She's believed to have been | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
abducted and murdered. Her family met the police this morning and | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
said afterwards they're hopeful she'll be found. Our district | 0:03:25 | 0:03:32 | |
journalist, Louise Cullen, reports. 17 years on, Arlene Arkinson's | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
family is still looking ponces. Answers they hope will come from | 0:03:36 | 0:03:40 | |
fresh searches for her body. They Met Police days before the | 0:03:40 | 0:03:44 | |
anniversary of her disappearance and said they have never given up | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
hope nobody will be found. Arlene Arkinson was 15 when she | 0:03:48 | 0:03:53 | |
disappeared in 1994 after a night out with friends. She was last seen | 0:03:53 | 0:03:57 | |
in a car driven by Robert Lesley Howard. He was charged with her | 0:03:57 | 0:04:04 | |
murder. In 2005 he was acquitted. The jury did not know he was | 0:04:04 | 0:04:10 | |
already serving a life sentence. These police dogs will find her if | 0:04:10 | 0:04:16 | |
she is there. We know Robert knows where Arlene Arkinson is, and | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
whether he tells us or whether he doesn't, the third is going to | 0:04:20 | 0:04:26 | |
continue. It has taken six months to plan this operation. There will | 0:04:26 | 0:04:31 | |
be around 40 searches and they will involve trained dogs. At this | 0:04:31 | 0:04:36 | |
present I cannot comment because I do not want to disturb it and it is | 0:04:36 | 0:04:40 | |
personal between us. The search will start on would have been | 0:04:40 | 0:04:45 | |
Arlene Arkinson's 70th birthday. The sisters say they hope this will | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
be the year they can bury Arlene Arkinson along with her parents. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
A senior official in the Department of the Environment has been | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
suspended. The BBC understands that the chief executive of the Driving | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
and Vehicle Agency is no longer at his desk while disciplinary | 0:04:58 | 0:05:03 | |
proceedings are carried out. Our political correspondent joins me | 0:05:03 | 0:05:13 | |
now live. Martina, what more can you tell us? | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
This story broke this morning when at the Driver and vehicle Agency | 0:05:17 | 0:05:20 | |
issued a press statement saying beneficial had been suspended | 0:05:20 | 0:05:25 | |
pending a disciplinary proceedings. They did not name him but the BBC | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
understands it is Stanley Duncan, the chief executive of the Driver | 0:05:28 | 0:05:34 | |
and vehicle Agency. That is the agency that issues driving licences | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
and MOTs. What has the Department been | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
saying? Not a lot. They won't confirm the | 0:05:40 | 0:05:44 | |
name, nor will they say whether this official has been suspended on | 0:05:44 | 0:05:48 | |
full pay. They have simply said the suspension is to facilitate | 0:05:48 | 0:05:53 | |
disciplinary proceedings. Alex Atwood has said that the deeply a | 0:05:53 | 0:05:57 | |
lot -- detail and background will be available when there is an | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
outcome and that in the meantime we should not jump to any conclusions. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:03 | |
The police are investigating threats made to a member of Housing | 0:06:03 | 0:06:05 | |
Executive staff based in Ballynahinch. The incident has lead | 0:06:05 | 0:06:10 | |
to the closure two of its offices in County Down. Our district | 0:06:10 | 0:06:16 | |
journalist Francis Gorman reports. This is the Market House in | 0:06:16 | 0:06:21 | |
Ballynahinch. The Housing Executive has an office here one day a week. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:25 | |
Last month a man threatened a woman who works there. She is said to | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
have been extremely shaken by the incident, as were other members of | 0:06:29 | 0:06:33 | |
the public waiting to be seen. The Housing Executive decided to them | 0:06:33 | 0:06:38 | |
close the office here, and in Newcastle, also stopped by one | 0:06:38 | 0:06:44 | |
employee. There are a number of things, panic alarms, as Bedale for | 0:06:44 | 0:06:51 | |
contact with other plus members -- police members. We still want to | 0:06:51 | 0:06:56 | |
afford customers as a fishing degree of privacy that ensures | 0:06:56 | 0:07:01 | |
confidentiality but at the same time helps Darfield projected. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:05 | |
is an inconvenience for Housing Executive tenants. If they want to | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
a face-to-face meeting, they have to travel. But the Housing | 0:07:09 | 0:07:13 | |
Executive have said, following a review, both offices will reopen in | 0:07:13 | 0:07:17 | |
the next few weeks. The chief executive of the Quinn | 0:07:17 | 0:07:20 | |
Group says he fears a campaign of violent attacks against him and the | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
business could result in someone being killed. Paul O'Brien's car | 0:07:24 | 0:07:28 | |
was destroyed and part of his house damaged by arsonists. It was | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
apparently the latest in a series of attacks since Anglo Irish Bank | 0:07:31 | 0:07:36 | |
took control of the business from the Quinn family. Mr O'Brien says | 0:07:36 | 0:07:39 | |
he believes the violence has been orchestrated to try to get the | 0:07:39 | 0:07:44 | |
current management out. Sean Quinn, the group's former owner, has | 0:07:44 | 0:07:53 | |
unequivocally condemned the attacks. Some of Northern Ireland's | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
potential business successes faced an important deadline today, taking | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
the first step to securing the funding they need to make a go of | 0:07:59 | 0:08:02 | |
it. We're well used to watching Dragon's Den on the television but | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
it's not quite the same in real life. Companies need to learn how | 0:08:05 | 0:08:09 | |
to pitch an idea to the people with the money and persuade them they're | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
worth the risk. BBC Newsline's Will Leitch has been | 0:08:11 | 0:08:16 | |
finding out how it's done. The first step in business is | 0:08:16 | 0:08:26 | |
0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | ||
having a great idea. The second is raising enough money to get started. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:35 | |
One way is to find your own Dragon and get them to invest. But that is | 0:08:35 | 0:08:40 | |
easier said than done. So at the Northern Ireland Simon Spark, | 0:08:40 | 0:08:45 | |
surrounded by members of our previous business strengths, this | 0:08:45 | 0:08:49 | |
teaches them how to do it. Today is the deadline for applying. Then | 0:08:49 | 0:08:55 | |
that they will get the chance to pitch to the people with the money. | 0:08:55 | 0:08:59 | |
We are asking for the right amount of money, sometimes they have done | 0:08:59 | 0:09:03 | |
everything right and just needs to make it pitch perfect because the | 0:09:03 | 0:09:07 | |
firms will be making the investment and putting money into you and they | 0:09:07 | 0:09:13 | |
want to see money come out of it. These food products are FA Cup and | 0:09:13 | 0:09:18 | |
tasty way of adding nutrients to food, the brainchild of a Belfast | 0:09:18 | 0:09:22 | |
company. Last time it ran, the managing director joined the | 0:09:22 | 0:09:28 | |
programme, pitched to the Forum and it paid off. It is very reassuring. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:34 | |
These are intelligent people and they can spot, they have a good | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
track record and spotting what a good venture is and what can make a | 0:09:38 | 0:09:43 | |
good business, so that in itself is very good validation for something | 0:09:43 | 0:09:48 | |
that you have been working on. Stormont executive badly needs more | 0:09:48 | 0:09:53 | |
successful private companies. Ultimately it means it needs more | 0:09:53 | 0:09:57 | |
new jobs and less reliance on the public sector. All of this is just | 0:09:57 | 0:10:05 | |
one way that might happen. Still to come on the programme: The | 0:10:05 | 0:10:08 | |
pensioners keeping fit on a games console with a bit of help from | 0:10:08 | 0:10:12 | |
scientists at Queens University. Out on his own - why a Commonwealth | 0:10:12 | 0:10:22 | |
0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | ||
medal winning cycle team has parted Next to a village in county Antrim, | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
where the community feels it's now back on the map with the re-opening | 0:10:28 | 0:10:32 | |
of its only shop. When the shop in Ballygally near | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
Larne closed three years ago, local residents felt the heart had been | 0:10:35 | 0:10:42 | |
But they organised themselves and have now got back the shop, a | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
community hall and a sense of place. Our district Journalist Ciara | 0:10:45 | 0:10:50 | |
Riddell has more. A place to catch up again. When my | 0:10:50 | 0:10:54 | |
local shop was closed by a developer three years ago, this | 0:10:54 | 0:11:01 | |
place was left without its centre. The Vidic literally died overnight. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:06 | |
Visitors just drove through -- the Vidic victory died overnight. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:11 | |
Visitors had no cause to stop. It had a devastating effect. A group | 0:11:11 | 0:11:18 | |
of locals from the coastal village secured funding from the Big | 0:11:18 | 0:11:22 | |
Lottery Fund and the council, amongst others, and transforms this | 0:11:22 | 0:11:26 | |
car park into a thriving shop and community centre. The heart has | 0:11:26 | 0:11:31 | |
been brought back him. I think the village was on a life-support | 0:11:31 | 0:11:36 | |
machine up to then but now it is really flying again. You go into | 0:11:36 | 0:11:40 | |
the shop, people are there that you have not seen for maybe three years. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:46 | |
There is a bars. That is what we were after, getting the buzz back. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:51 | |
We lost our post office shortly after we lost our shop. We have a | 0:11:51 | 0:11:59 | |
12 mile round trip to get anything. We just lost everything. Having a | 0:11:59 | 0:12:04 | |
shot back, it has just been fantastic. Village SOS is open | 0:12:04 | 0:12:09 | |
again this year to rural areas. Funding is available but this time | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
a website has also been set up where communities can get | 0:12:12 | 0:12:16 | |
professional advice on how to regenerate their village. The first | 0:12:16 | 0:12:21 | |
thing I would say to them his visit the website, the specialised | 0:12:21 | 0:12:27 | |
website that we have set up, which will signpost them not only to the | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
experts but also to possible sources of funding and if they get | 0:12:30 | 0:12:35 | |
in touch with us at the Big Lottery Fund, we will also point them in | 0:12:35 | 0:12:40 | |
the right direction. As for this coastal village, local people say | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
they are looking forward to welcoming visitors again on their | 0:12:44 | 0:12:47 | |
way to the causeway. And you can find out how other | 0:12:47 | 0:12:50 | |

Northern Ireland. Amateurs are creating something using sharp | 0:13:20 | 0:13:29 | |
knives and glue. Our arts correspondent reports. They do not | 0:13:30 | 0:13:34 | |
call at the creative peninsula for nothing. This week, at a range of | 0:13:34 | 0:13:38 | |
classes allows even the rise of recruits to experiment in ceramics | 0:13:38 | 0:13:43 | |
and glass design. -- even the newest of recruits. The end results | 0:13:43 | 0:13:51 | |
are worth it. I have already made this one, which is least and some | 0:13:51 | 0:13:58 | |
shapes. -- some trees and some shapes. On this one I am joined a | 0:13:58 | 0:14:06 | |
little duck. The technique is to drive and then cut out the parts. - | 0:14:06 | 0:14:16 | |
0:14:16 | 0:14:16 | ||
- it design it. We are a chain to get some acid and do some more work. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:26 | |

-- itching. I started glass etching about 15 years ago. I really enjoy | 0:14:27 | 0:14:33 | |
their classes, it is nice. Usually I am working in a studio and it is | 0:14:33 | 0:14:38 | |
nice to get out and meet people. From glass to fabrics. In this | 0:14:38 | 0:14:47 | |
class they have been learning about changing the colour of clothes. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:53 | |
Some of the students were trying very elaborate designs. The | 0:14:53 | 0:14:59 | |
material is put in vinegar. need to think carefully about what | 0:14:59 | 0:15:03 | |
you will get if you mix the colours. Can I interrupt you and find out | 0:15:03 | 0:15:10 | |
how skilled you are at this job? am not skilled at all. There are | 0:15:10 | 0:15:20 | |
more workshops over the weekend. With computer technology, we can | 0:15:20 | 0:15:27 | |
play golf, bowling, Berry Hill skiing. Now, thanks to a little | 0:15:27 | 0:15:33 | |
adjustment, the fund and exercise benefit is juts -- is not just | 0:15:33 | 0:15:38 | |
confined to people who are young and fit. Scientists at Queens | 0:15:38 | 0:15:41 | |
University have developed special motion control software which | 0:15:41 | 0:15:51 | |
0:15:51 | 0:15:53 | ||
enables people with mobility problems to play the computer games. | 0:15:53 | 0:16:00 | |
That was very good. This woman is in her eighties. But she has really | 0:16:00 | 0:16:05 | |
taken to the new technology. She is moving her body and shifting her | 0:16:05 | 0:16:10 | |
feet and getting some gentle exercise. She is using her balance | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
to control the game, and she absolutely loves it. I really think | 0:16:14 | 0:16:24 | |
0:16:24 | 0:16:27 | ||
it is brilliant. It makes me feel younger. I will be the champion. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:34 | |
The battle is on, and the main challenger is even doing the moves | 0:16:34 | 0:16:43 | |
from the seat. My balance is improving. I can move without help | 0:16:43 | 0:16:53 | |
0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | ||
now. I would like to keep it. seems that the games are working, | 0:16:56 | 0:17:00 | |
and that the likes the scientists who are developing them. We are | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
trying to see how this new technology that allows you to use | 0:17:03 | 0:17:07 | |
your body can mean that we can develop games that are suited to | 0:17:07 | 0:17:12 | |
all the adults are they can use it to have fun and train their balance. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:22 | |
0:17:22 | 0:17:28 | ||
-- two older adults. It is fun and competitive. Very good. So it | 0:17:28 | 0:17:38 | |
continues. It looks very competitive. There is an important | 0:17:38 | 0:17:43 | |
night of football coming up. Stephen Watson is at Windsor Park, | 0:17:43 | 0:17:50 | |
where the weight the arrival of an unusual guest. -- they await the | 0:17:50 | 0:17:55 | |
arrival. It is a must-win game for Northern Ireland. They must beat | 0:17:55 | 0:17:58 | |
the Faroe Islands if they are to keep their qualification hopes | 0:17:58 | 0:18:02 | |
alive. The Faroe Islands Arab team that Northern Ireland have had | 0:18:02 | 0:18:09 | |
problems with in the past. The special guest you were referring to | 0:18:09 | 0:18:15 | |
is the sports minister of Sinn Fein. She will make her first appearance. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:19 | |
Controversially, she will not take her seat until after the national | 0:18:19 | 0:18:25 | |
anthem. Here to talk about the game is Michael O'Neill. It is this a | 0:18:25 | 0:18:31 | |
banana-skin? I think these games always are. They are not the games | 0:18:31 | 0:18:38 | |
where Northern Ireland get a result as easily as people think they will. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:43 | |
But I think they will be well organised. They are missing some | 0:18:43 | 0:18:49 | |
players, they will make life and difficult -- they will make life | 0:18:49 | 0:18:55 | |
difficult. The Northern Ireland manager Nigel Worthington played in | 0:18:55 | 0:19:00 | |
the game in 1991. The Faroe Islands have come on leaps and bounds since | 0:19:00 | 0:19:08 | |
then. That is correct. Even though they are part-time players, the | 0:19:08 | 0:19:12 | |
organisation has gone on to a new level. The key thing for Northern | 0:19:12 | 0:19:18 | |

so. I think the strikers will wonder about the bed. They will get | 0:19:51 | 0:20:00 | |
some freedom. -- the strikers will swap around a bit. David Healy will | 0:20:00 | 0:20:06 | |
get a chance. He has not scored in three years but you never know. The | 0:20:06 | 0:20:10 | |
Republic of Ireland are in action tonight, playing Croatia in a | 0:20:10 | 0:20:14 | |
friendly at the Aviva Stadium. Shane Warne became a Premiership | 0:20:14 | 0:20:21 | |
player today, smashing the transfer record and signing for �7 million. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:31 | |

the qualifiers. He is not 100 %, so we decided he should go back to his | 0:20:44 | 0:20:54 | |
0:20:54 | 0:20:58 | ||
club. It is better at the club decide. The goalkeeper has recently | 0:20:58 | 0:21:04 | |
signed to Aston Villa, but Robbie Keane's future as attracted | 0:21:04 | 0:21:10 | |
attention as it has emerged he will not stay at Tottenham Hotspur. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:16 | |
people are talking to the clubs, that is all I can say at the moment. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:21 | |
The next couple of weeks it will be sorted out. Tonight's game is an | 0:21:21 | 0:21:26 | |
important step for the Republic of Ireland players. They face a side | 0:21:26 | 0:21:30 | |
ranked in the top 10. It is a final test before the qualifiers next | 0:21:30 | 0:21:38 | |
month. Sadly at Windsor Park it has started to rain. It will be a | 0:21:38 | 0:21:43 | |
miserable night. One of our Commonwealth Games medal winning | 0:21:43 | 0:21:47 | |
teams has been forced to disband. The four members of the cycling | 0:21:47 | 0:21:51 | |
pursuit team have had to go their separate ways because of a lack of | 0:21:51 | 0:21:57 | |
funding. Cannot complain. Everything is going good. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:03 | |
things could be better, when he is not training at home, the 21-year- | 0:22:03 | 0:22:08 | |
old braces for an amateur team on the roads of France. Not what he | 0:22:08 | 0:22:14 | |
expected after last year's success in Delhi. Northern Ireland have won | 0:22:14 | 0:22:24 | |
the bronze medal. If we got a medal, we should have got funding. But now | 0:22:24 | 0:22:28 | |
because they pull the programme, we do not get a grant. It is | 0:22:28 | 0:22:34 | |
frustrating. You are always having to think about what you can do. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:39 | |
Travelling is the most expensive part of it. It is difficult. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:45 | |
Another member of the team is in a similar predicament. I thought I | 0:22:45 | 0:22:53 | |
would have got the ball rolling. We are all in the same situation. The | 0:22:53 | 0:22:57 | |
powers that be allocate money and we did not get a big chunk of it. | 0:22:57 | 0:23:04 | |
Thankfully there is a bit to keep me going. Martin says he is getting | 0:23:04 | 0:23:07 | |
enough money to pursue an individual career, but will be | 0:23:07 | 0:23:13 | |
spending most of his time away from home. Plans for a ballot Rome were | 0:23:13 | 0:23:21 | |
shelved last year. Lack of an -- plans for a special facility were | 0:23:21 | 0:23:27 | |
shelved. The bulk of the cash comes from the Irish Sports Council and | 0:23:27 | 0:23:37 | |
0:23:37 | 0:23:40 | ||
it has been reduced. It is down by over �100,000. All sports are | 0:23:40 | 0:23:49 | |
battling for the same vein. I just have to keep my head down. The | 0:23:49 | 0:23:54 | |
Olympics are pretty big. We may see these men win medals again, but it | 0:23:54 | 0:24:04 | |
is unlikely to be together. I bet the weather is much better in | 0:24:04 | 0:24:09 | |
Georgia where are three top golfers are playing. Darren Clarke, Rory | 0:24:09 | 0:24:12 | |
McIlroy and Graeme McDowell are getting ready to start in the last | 0:24:12 | 0:24:18 | |
major golf tournament. They will have the use sunscreen tomorrow | 0:24:18 | 0:24:21 | |
because the temperatures are expected to be in the High 30s. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:29 | |
will be hot for everybody. Last week, it was hot. You just have to | 0:24:29 | 0:24:34 | |
do your best, I will have to drink a lot of fluids and keep focused on | 0:24:34 | 0:24:39 | |
what I am doing, but the heat will be difficult. They it will | 0:24:39 | 0:24:44 | |
certainly not be hot tonight. Let us hope that Northern Ireland are | 0:24:44 | 0:24:54 | |
in red hot goalscoring form. Back to the studio. Not great there. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:58 | |

will be a breezing and damp conditions. It will be difficult | 0:25:18 | 0:25:22 | |
for the farmers, the last thing they need is heavy rain and strong | 0:25:22 | 0:25:29 | |
wind. We have had a bit of both. Not a great evening in store. It | 0:25:29 | 0:25:36 | |
will be a damp at times. We do not expect any torrential downpours. | 0:25:36 | 0:25:43 | |
The breeze should ease up. Cast your eyes over these temperatures. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:51 | |
15 Celsius. Not the most comfortable conditions. Quite | 0:25:51 | 0:25:55 | |
humoured tomorrow especially through the first part of the day, | 0:25:55 | 0:26:04 | |
and it will be damp at times. Quite Padraig -- quite a dreary start. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:10 | |
There is some uncertainty about the movement. It might cling onto part | 0:26:10 | 0:26:17 | |
of the counties in Londonderry and County Down. Not great news for the | 0:26:17 | 0:26:27 | |
0:26:27 | 0:26:29 | ||
Ulster Grand Prix. It might be damp at times. Moving further west, the | 0:26:29 | 0:26:34 | |
skies will brighten up for the second part of the day, | 0:26:34 | 0:26:42 | |
temperatures lifting to 20 Celsius. Not bad in parts of County Tyrone. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:49 | |
That is how things continue through the afternoon. There will be rain | 0:26:49 | 0:26:57 | |
in the West. Looking towards Friday, there is another band of rain | 0:26:57 | 0:27:02 | |
looking to spread its way end across Northern Ireland. Another | 0:27:02 | 0:27:08 | |
damp day in prospect. The temperatures will not be that bad. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:15 | |
Little consolation if you are under the rain. The Ulster Grand Prix | 0:27:15 | 0:27:23 | |
will be wet. At least I do not have to what are my plants. Before we go, | 0:27:23 | 0:27:29 | |
a reminder of the stories: a 14- year-old boy is accused of being | 0:27:29 | 0:27:34 | |
the gunman in a murder attempt in Belfast. Three other men have been | 0:27:34 | 0:27:40 | |
charged. New searches are planned to find the body of a missing | 0:27:40 | 0:27:45 | |
teenager. News footage of Manchester appears to show the | 0:27:45 | 0:27:49 | |
