secret talks with the British Government. In court, his solicitor | :01:34. | :01:37. | |

officer Todd the court there was evidence linking him to the murder | :01:43. | :01:46. | |

hospital. Claire Savage reports. In the air, on the water and along the | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
shoreline at Lough Ree, the search continues. The 30-year-old landscape | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
gardener from Portadown was on a fishing trip with two friends when | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
accident happened. The man who died on Thursday was David Warnock on | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
which Hill. He was a former club captain of Armagh hockey club. He | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
was engaged with a four-year-old son for the P had been due to play in a | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
league Cup Final next Saturday. It is likely to be postponed as a mark | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
of respect. Team-mates at his club have described him as a superb | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
player. Someone of his stature and ability is irreplaceable, both as a | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
friend and Perth. He could have played for, I will go as far as to | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
say, any team in Ireland if you chose to. It was not in his nature. | :03:03. | :03:11. | |
This was his home club. It is said the rescued man is in a stable | :03:12. | :03:13. | |
condition in hospital and his injuries are not life-threatening | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
will stop The Alliance MLA Anna Lo says she won't be labelled as a | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
nationalist after telling a newspaper her personal preference | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
would be for a United Ireland. The party's European candidate rejected | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
criticism of her remarks, claiming it came from people incapable of | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
seeing beyond sectarianism. Here's our political editor, Mark | :03:30. | :03:38. | |
Devenport. Anna Lo got a standing over Asian from Alliance activists, | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
after being described as a one-woman publicity machine. -- a standing | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
ovation. Was this good publicity or bad publicity? She said she would | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
not be reduced to a label. When I decided to get involved in politics, | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
I did not join Sinn Fein or the SDLP. No, I join the Alliance party | :04:01. | :04:10. | |
because my motivation is not a united Ireland but the United | :04:11. | :04:18. | |
Northern Ireland. It was argued that Alliance is not just in | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
middle-of-the-road party, splitting the difference between unionists and | :04:22. | :04:29. | |
nationalists. We are not the more drugs -- moderates in Northern | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
Ireland politics. We are there to smash the mould. There is only one | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
way we will smash it and by convincing more and more people to | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
step forward and to step forward and two boat Alliance. The message of | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
Alliance is that they have no need to worry about the fallout from the | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
remarks of Anna Lo. It will only become clear once voters have given | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
their verdicts. And now here's the weather with Bara | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
Best. We still have a few scattered | :04:56. | :05:07. | |
showers. During this evening and overnight, many will begin to die | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
away. As temperatures fall close to freezing tonight, any showers that | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
to remain will fall asleep and snow, especially over the high ground. -- | :05:16. | :05:23. | |
as sleek. It will be chilly to start on Sunday. There will be fog and the | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
odd patch of ice. There may be some slippery surfaces. Sunday is not | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
going to be too bad. More in the way of sunshine and fewer showers in the | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
forecast. To begin with, a few showers here and there as we go | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
towards the afternoon. It will brighten up nicely and most of the | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
winds will die out. It will die out. It'll be a mixed bag across Britain | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
and Ireland. Tomorrow will be a much better picture for us all. Some good | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
spells of sunshine to enjoy. Temperatures will be held back into | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
the high single figures for many of us. One or two places will reach | :05:59. | :06:06. | |
double figures by the afternoon. There will be the odd shower. Many | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
of us will stay dry with highs of seven, eight Celsius. Largely dry | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
conditions tomorrow evening and overnight into Monday. It will not | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
stay the same for long. More rain on Monday. There will be southeasterly | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
winds. On Tuesday and Wednesday it will be an improving story. That's | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
it for now. BBC Newsline will be back tomorrow. | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
