Good evening. This is BBC Newsline with Sarah Travers. The headlines: | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
Calls for an inquiry after a woman is repeatedly stabbed at a north | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
Belfast Health Centre. By the end of September, the City | :00:23. | :00:32. | |
Hospital's A & E could be temporarily closed. I'll have the | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
latest reaction. An outbreak of new tree disease in | :00:35. | :00:37. | |

Forest Park to find out more. The remarkable discovery made by a | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
turf-cutter in an Irish bog. The dancehall on the border locals | :00:45. | :00:54. | |
hope to turn into a shrine to the showbands. It's the most talked- | :00:54. | :00:59. | |

copping in golf's last major of the year. -- Rory McIllroy. | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
And it's not all wet news this weekend - there may even be a | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
glimpse of sunshine. Somewhere normally associated with | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
well-being turned into a scene of horror yesterday when a woman was | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
stabbed repeatedly in a north Belfast health centre. It happened | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
within minutes, leaving the 40- year-old lying in a pool of blood | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
in front of shocked social workers and members of the public. Today, a | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
man was charged with attempted murder but the attack's led to | :01:26. | :01:35. | |
calls for an inquiry. Chris Page has more. | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
It's believed Mary Reynolds was stabbed more than 20 times at this | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
well-being Centre in north Belfast. She is in a stable condition in | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
hospital. It is believed the accident happened during and | :01:49. | :01:59. | |
:01:59. | :02:00. | ||
appoint an with social services. people are going into a situation | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
like this, their safety has to be guaranteed going in and coming away | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
from it, and that is the responsibility for social services. | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
A few hours after the attack, a man was arrested, and today he was in | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
court. He appear in a court accompanied by four guards. He is | :02:17. | :02:24. | |
charged with attempting to Mother Mary McReynolds. The accused is 23. | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
He is also charged with trying to cause grievous bodily harm and with | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
having an offensive weapon, specifically, and knife. | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
The heaving at Belfast magistrates' court lasted less than two minutes. | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
He did not speak but nodded to confirm he understood the charges. | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
There was no bail application and the district judge remanded the | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
accused in custody until next month. The Chief Executive of the Belfast | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
Health Trust has told the BBC that the City Hospital's Accident and | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
Emergency department must close temporarily by the end of September | :02:54. | :03:00. | |
to ensure the safety of patients. A shortage of senior doctors means | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
rotas can't be filled. Unions and some health professionals have | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
reacted angrily, with the Royal College of Nursing accusing the | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
Trust of failing to consult those who work on the front line. Our | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
Health Correspondent, Marie-Louise Connolly, is at the City Hospital. | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
The move is being described as temporary but is that likely to be | :03:19. | :03:28. | |
the case? It's hard to imagine that management will revert back to what | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
is currently in place now. After leaving patients and staff through | :03:35. | :03:42. | |
what will undoubtedly be a very difficult transformation process, | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
bringing services here all work to the Royal Victoria Hospital side. | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
However, the man at the helm of this great ship says he has no | :03:50. | :03:57. | |
other option. Unless he can recruit senior medical staff to run his | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
accident and emergency department here it the city, he must come up | :03:59. | :04:05. | |
with a contingency plan. We believe that if we are not able to mitigate | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
the staff shortages we know we may have at the end of September, we | :04:08. | :04:15. | |
need to plan to actually close at the accident and emergency services | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
at Belfast City Hospital on a temporary basis from the end of | :04:18. | :04:23. | |
September, and plan from now until then to see if we can mitigate | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
those staff shortages to avoid that. How will the Royal Victoria | :04:27. | :04:34. | |
Hospital cope with the extra patients - where will it put them? | :04:34. | :04:40. | |
In an open and honest interview, he was realistic. He said that it | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
would not be easy but there is a plan place. People will be directed | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
to go to the Royal Victoria Hospital, that will be their major | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
hot site, as he described it. That will be the a major into a Kania, | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
where the public will call and be examined, and their decision will | :04:58. | :05:04. | |
be made - whether to admit them to the Royal Victoria Hospital, or, if | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
you're a cardiac or I haematology patients, you could be redirected | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
back here to the City Hospital. That is good news for staff because | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
it means beds may remain open here, it just will no longer be | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
considered a major play so where patients are going to be admitted. | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
Was there not going to be consultation on the potential | :05:24. | :05:31. | |
closure of the department? That's right. That consultation are still | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
going to happen, and my understanding is that will happen | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
during the second week of September. They are BMA and various members of | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
the public will be involved. Some are saying that that is ironic, | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
that there will be consulted then, considering the contingency plans | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
that are being put in place just now. What we are looking for is the | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
plan. Please, will somebody talk to us about the plan and allow us to | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
help you to put that plan together and discuss the options you have | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
for the options -- the problems you have. I do not think that is | :06:08. | :06:16. | |
unreasonable. It is important to say that the City Hospital's A&E | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
department is open for business tonight, and that will remain the | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
case until at the end of September. People can still come along here to | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
the accident and emergency ward unless we hear any different. | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
A schoolboy, who's accused of attempted murder, has been refused | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
bail at the High Court. The 14 year-old has been charged in | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
connection with a shooting at a caravan in the Lagmore area of West | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
Belfast. It's believed to be linked to a feud in the traveller | :06:39. | :06:47. | |
community. Kevin Sharkey reports. A man was shot in the leg in his | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
caravan on Monday. Four people have been charged with attempted murder | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
including the schoolboy. The 14- year-old is currently being | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
detained at this juvenile justice centre. At a High Court today, his | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
defence team said the boy comes from a settled travellers family. | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
He is still at school. The defence said he could be looked after at an | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
address well away from many bad influences. Mr Justice McLaughlan | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
asked if there were malevolent forces within the boy's family | :07:17. | :07:25. | |
encouraging him. He said, people would be talking about parenting | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
issues. The person who shot into the caravan was wearing a balaclava. | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
The police said was a schoolboy, the defence say the description | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
does not match the 14 euros. Mr Justice McLoughlin said he accepts | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
that the evidence is circumstantial. He said it first appears that the | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
boy it is the gunmen and that is a serious case and the public has to | :07:48. | :07:58. | |
:07:58. | :07:59. | ||
be protected, so he refused bail. Still to come on the programme. | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
There's no other car like it in the entire world, so what is it doing | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
in County Antrim? Find out later in the programme. And, do you come | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
here often? Celebrating the romance of the dancehalls. | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
A serious woodland disease has been found in one of our best known | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
forest parks. It's a new strain of the infection that's led to | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
thousands of trees being felled across Northern Ireland. This time | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
the affected area is Tollymore Forest Park outside Newcastle. Our | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
environment correspondent Mike McKimm has been following this | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
story and he joins us live now. So, Mike, for all those travelling to | :08:34. | :08:42. | |
Tollymore this weekend - what does this mean? Let me start off by | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
saying straightaway that the park is still open and that does not | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
affect people coming here at the weekend or the rest of the holidays. | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
What it this three here - it says it all. Effectively, this tea is | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
dying. Here to explain more about what is going on here, what is | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
going on here? You can see the foliage of the T showing symptoms | :09:05. | :09:13. | |
of the disease, turning from green to bronze. What is causing that is | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
a disease that is in the soil. It attacks the Ritz -- attacks the | :09:18. | :09:25. | |
Ritz and kills the tea. Overall, there is about two hectors of these | :09:25. | :09:32. | |
trees. They all have to come down? There are about two hectors within | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
the Labour Forest which will have to be felt. To put that in | :09:36. | :09:43. | |
perspective, it is less than one half of 1% of the area. People are | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
being asked to stay away from many areas that are signposted like | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
this? This is different to some other tree diseases that actually | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
spread through the air. This is spread through the soil, and we | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
need people to keep back from the soil. These are quite exotic and | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
ornamental trees. People have teas like this, including leylandii, | :10:07. | :10:17. | |
does it include them? There are also Leyland cypress, or leylandii, | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
but they are not attract -- attacked by this disease. After the | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
winter and the cold weather, some of those trees suffer but it is not | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
due to this disease. Thank you very much. Some good news for gardeners | :10:31. | :10:38. | |
- not to worry if your leylandii is looking a bit off. I'm sure plenty | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
will be glad to hear that. There's a row at one of our biggest | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
further education colleges over relations between senior management | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
and some staff. The Foyle MP and all six local MLA's have asked the | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
Minister to step in and deal with the controversy at the North-West | :10:50. | :10:57. | |
Regional College. Here's Keiron Tourish. | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
The north-west college caters for 20,000 full and part-time students | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
across Berry. Last September, during the restructuring, 12 staff | :11:07. | :11:13. | |
took voluntary redundancy. A number of areas where merged. There have | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
been claims that with all the changes, it is led to a breakdown | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
in relations between management and staff. One former senior staff | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
member who was made redundant said he is concerned about the impact on | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
colleagues. I am sad to see the way it is gone. Have you an axe to | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
grind with the management? I don't have an axe to grind but they have | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
principles. I'll tell it as I see it. That is maybe wireman the | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
position I'm in. The story took a dramatic twist when the Foyle MP | :11:45. | :11:55. | |
:11:55. | :12:11. | ||
For example, the relations agency could carry out a behaviour audit. | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
We think there LRA should be brought in here. And they would be | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
having to co-operate with them. member of the board of governors | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
are represents almost one-third of the fund and 60 staff, insists | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
there is no crisis at the north- west College. I think it is | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
important that they bring us back to where it should be negotiated, | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
at the table with employers. We need all sides to re-engage again | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
at and resolve this the way it should be resolved, at the | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
negotiation table. No one from a college was available for interview, | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
but a spokesperson pointed out that it wasn't -- subject to an internal | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
audit process with which it fully complied. | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
The remains of a prehistoric body, estimated to be up to 3,000 years | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
old, have been discovered in a bog in the Republic. Experts are | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
examining the remains, which were found partially buried in a leather | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
bag just outside Portlaoise. They'll be removed to the National | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
Museum in Dublin for further examination in the coming days. Our | :13:05. | :13:15. | |
:13:15. | :13:22. | ||
Dublin reporter Jennifer O'Leary This is the Bob were for thousands | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
of years these human remains have been partially buried in a leather | :13:27. | :13:36. | |
bag. Chemicals in the ground make four or an ideal preservative. This | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
is the heel, this is it fits, but the torso and head, also in the bag, | :13:41. | :13:50. | |
did not survive. This is probably a ritual the position of a human | :13:50. | :13:58. | |
sacrifice. This suspicion is that this is probably a late prehistoric | :13:58. | :14:05. | |
burial, maybe I any age. They it was a bog worker who notice | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
something unusual. He applied the brakes and Parisian - - preserved | :14:11. | :14:19. | |
the body. We are well trained in spotting artifacts. We are | :14:19. | :14:29. | |
:14:29. | :14:30. | ||
delighted to have uncovered such a It seems that there is a tiny | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
percentage of the population that the recession hasn't touched, the | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
super rich, and a County Antrim business is making the most of that. | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
The company restores Rolls Royce and Bentley cars and says the | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
downturn in the economy has actually been a bonus because, at | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
the moment, vintage cars are seen as a solid investment. As Natasha | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
Sayee reports, the company is doing business with royalty, celebrities | :14:49. | :14:58. | |
and multi-millionaires around the world. | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
You have just got to say, it is a real beauty. This 1930s will Troy's | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
Bunsen to was lovingly restored bit by bit inimical workshop just | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
outside Lisburn. It is a ready for the road and both the Sultan of | :15:13. | :15:21. | |
Brunei and the royal family of tide and want to buy it. When people | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
find hard chips and stock markets, they invest in gold, art and | :15:25. | :15:32. | |
vintage cars. There is quite a considerable increase in the people | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
who have invested in cars. This company is expanding, taking on | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
more staff. Be say it is about selling the skills of Northern | :15:42. | :15:49. | |
Ireland as well as cars. The heritage of Belfast and the | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
shipyard and so on, those men are still there, their descendants are | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
still here. Engineering is in our blood and I could not honestly be | :15:58. | :16:06. | |
based in a better part of the world. The only use materials sourced | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
locally, which is another reason why they have got backing from the | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
Government. This has a vital contribution to make to the economy | :16:14. | :16:20. | |
here. James's enthusiasm and passion for this business says it | :16:20. | :16:27. | |
all. When we come across people like this, we are keen to help them. | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
The air are a number of projects in the pipeline, including this, | :16:31. | :16:37. | |
rebuilding and armoured Rolls Royce that was in the convoy when Michael | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
Collins was shot. There is a list of celebrity clients as well, | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
including Nicholas Cage and Chris Evans. At the million pounds, it is | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
like it like this will be the most expensive car I will ever be in, so | :16:51. | :17:01. | |
:17:01. | :17:02. | ||
I intent on enjoying the strive! - - intend. This filth absolutely | :17:02. | :17:10. | |
amazing. - - This feels absolutely amazing! | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
Next, to THAT wrist, and a prognosis on Rory McIlroy's chances | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
of success at golf's US PGA Championship. Doctor Stephen Watson | :17:15. | :17:21. | |
is here. I am no expert, but I can tell you | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
it looked painful. Rory McIlroy damaged his right wrist after | :17:24. | :17:29. | |
hitting the root of a tree early on in his first round. He was treated | :17:29. | :17:37. | |
on the course, and later in hospital after completing 18 holes. | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
He has strained the tendon in his lower right arm. The medical advice | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
is that playing on will not cause any more further damage. The | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
question, is can he cope with the pain? Well, Rory teed-off in his | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
second round today, but, as Austin O'Callaghan, reports it has not | :17:51. | :18:01. | |
:18:01. | :18:02. | ||
quite gone according to plan. Less than one day after it that | :18:02. | :18:08. | |
shot, Rory McIlroy was back out on the course. Six television cameras | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
followed his every move. It was not until a few moments before he | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
starred time that Rory McIlroy decided to play. The forearm is | :18:19. | :18:23. | |
heavily strapped. It did not appear to give him too much trouble early | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
on, but in temperatures of 40 degrees there were moments when his | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
game appeared to falter. He found the water at one of the par threes, | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
and if the injury was holding up, at times his putter certainly | :18:37. | :18:44. | |
wasn't. This was a triple bogey on the par-three 8th hole. At times it | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
looked like he was not enjoying its. Another dropped shot left him in | :18:49. | :18:57. | |
danger of mixing - - missing the cut. He steadied his finish and | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
carded a round of 73 for three over par. He looks like being the only | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
Ulsterman to make the cut with Darren Clarke on 14 over par, and | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
Graeme McDowell at nine over. Dublin road racer Derek Costello is | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
still critically ill in hospital after a high speed crash at the | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
Ulster Grand Prix races yesterday. He was treated for trauma to the | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
head at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast. Organisers say they | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
have been doing everything they can to make the Dundrod circuit as safe | :19:25. | :19:35. | |
:19:35. | :19:41. | ||
as possible. There has been a lot more safety bail spots. We have | :19:41. | :19:51. | |
been taking trees, poles and hedges, taking them down. It is on going. | :19:51. | :19:58. | |
There are risk assessments done. We will be looking at the area where | :19:58. | :20:02. | |

bringing couples together for generations. It is called the | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
Rainbow Ballroom of Romance and the community in Glenfarne are hoping | :22:33. | :22:38. | |
to turn it into a museum dedicated to the showband era of the 1960s. | :22:38. | :22:41. | |
Our district journalist Julian Fowler has been along to find out | :22:41. | :22:49. | |
more. At a crossroads on the road between | :22:49. | :22:54. | |
Enniskillen and Sligo stance the Rainbow Ballroom of romance. In its | :22:54. | :22:58. | |
heyday it attracted all the top show bands. For generations people | :22:58. | :23:05. | |
have been coming here to enjoy the music, to socialise and to look for | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
love her. This was an innocent age when men and women like opposite | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
sides of the hall and soft drinks and tea were served at the mineral | :23:13. | :23:22. | |
ba. They came on bicycles, in cars and walking. They dance for five | :23:22. | :23:31. | |
Arras and they went home. It was a celebration of life. The man behind | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
the success was John McGivern, who also met his wife you. The it means | :23:36. | :23:43. | |
an offer lots for me to see the young people here. Maybe meeting | :23:44. | :23:48. | |
their future husband! Not everyone could pluck up the courage ask a | :23:48. | :23:54. | |
girl to dance. Occasionally there would be a ladies' choice, and that | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
is when you put on your best smile and hope that's your number would | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
come up and some poor Ladywood take pity on you and drag you around the | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
floor with happiness and joy. It didn't happen too often, which is | :24:08. | :24:14. | |

dating and come down here. Meet people here at the ballroom of | :24:38. | :24:45. | |

Now, for all the weekend plans, let's find out what the weather is | :25:17. | :25:27. | |
up to over the next few days. Here We are certainly to a few | :25:27. | :25:32. | |
reasonable days. Things will be a little bit better over the weekend, | :25:33. | :25:37. | |
though hardly perfect. At least most of today's rain is beginning | :25:38. | :25:47. | |
:25:48. | :25:49. | ||
to clear away. If you are heading out, drier weather is on the way. | :25:49. | :25:55. | |
There may be a few breaks in the cloud in the early ours of the | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
morning, but by morning the blanket of cloud will have booked him again | :25:58. | :26:08. | |
and there will be drizzle. There is an meteor shower tonight, of though | :26:08. | :26:13. | |
unfortunately we will not have conditioned as good as that. Most | :26:13. | :26:20. | |
of us will start off Saturday with that being grey and misty. The | :26:20. | :26:26. | |
weekend overall will be drier and it will be a little bit brighter. | :26:26. | :26:36. | |
:26:36. | :26:37. | ||
So, low cloud to start off with drizzle. Things will improve as the | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
day goes on and the afternoon will be largely dry, and a bit of a | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
breeze. So, very gradually we will see some brightness breaking | :26:46. | :26:56. | |
through as the breeze picks up. Many places will have a fairly dry | :26:56. | :27:06. | |
:27:06. | :27:06. | ||
afternoon. When the sun does come through, it will kill very pleasant. | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
- - it will feel very pleasant. On Sunday there will be sunshine | :27:10. | :27:15. | |
around, but there will be some showers, too. One or two of them | :27:15. | :27:19. | |
could be quite sharp, but in between the sun will shine. It will | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
not be a brilliant weekend, but better than it has been. | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
Finally, a reminder of the stories making the headlines: Sinn Fein has | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
called for an inquiry after a woman was repeatedly stabbed at a North | :27:30. | :27:33. | |
Belfast health centre. A man was in court today accused of | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
trying to murder the woman. The incident happened during the | :27:36. | :27:44. | |
woman's appointment with Social Services. | :27:44. | :27:47. |
