back then with the results for you. For now, from all of the team on BBC | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
News at Six, we will Good evening, | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
the headlines on BBC Newsline: As the House of Commons debates | :00:14. | :00:26. | |
bombing Syria, at least ten MPs from Northern Ireland are set to back | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
military action in tonight's crucial vote. | :00:30. | :00:30. | |
But there are mixed views on the issue among the | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
No doubt we should hit them and hit them hard. Thousands of innocent | :00:34. | :00:43. | |
people will be killed because of it. It is a disgrace. | :00:44. | :00:44. | |
Police say they've made a significant breakthrough | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
in their investigation of shootings carried out by a secret army unit. | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
A warning about scam emails targeting young people - one girl is | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
blackmailed after receiving a disturbing image online. | :00:54. | :01:00. | |
Access to indecent images online is traumatising for children. As much | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
as death and mutilation. The Catholic Church calls for | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
Newry Council to remove a giant TV screen erected outside | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
the city's cathedral. Rugby's recently crowned world | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
champions, The All Blacks, are Dublin-bound to take on Ireland | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
next year. And temperatures will be up and down | :01:14. | :01:25. | |
will be the next few days. The rain will come and go. I will see you | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
later in the programme. The majority of Northern Ireland's | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
MPs are expected to vote in favour Since late this morning, | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
the Commons has been debating the government's motion to bomb sites | :01:33. | :01:39. | |
controlled by so-called Islamic The SDLP have criticised the | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
Prime Minister for referring to opponents of air strikes | :01:43. | :01:52. | |
as "terrorist sympathisers." BBC Newsline's Mark Simpson has | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
been listening to the debate. How have those comments from David | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
Cameron affected todays's debate? I suppose the question being out | :01:59. | :02:12. | |
here in Westminster tonight is will those comments mean David Cameron | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
now loses the vote, no. Has he, though, lost some goodwill? | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
Particularly on the Labour benches and may be the Northern Ireland | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
benches in terms of the SDLP, the answer there is yes. As we can here | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
now. David Cameron refused today to apologise. I feel it would have been | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
better for him to do so because none of us are terrorists, who have been | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
going through the no lobby tonight against mate air strikes. I am not a | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
pacifist. I was one of the few people who called for bombing in | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
Bosnia long before it is government policy and I am certainly not a | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
supporter of terrorism from Northern Ireland. I hope the Prime Minister | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
will apologise to me privately and publicly accused people like me | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
tonight who might have been going against the motion, might have been | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
supporting terrorism, I take it very personally. No sign of that | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
apology. Not yet. Kate Hoe drawing on that experience in Belfast and so | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
did the Belfast MP Nigel Dodds when he spoke this afternoon. You know on | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
these benches all too well the consequences of terrorism being | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
appeased and indulged. Terrorism must be faced up to. It is not a | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
choice choice between political initiatives and fighting terrorism, | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
both go hand-in-hand and that is way it is important. This motion talks | :03:41. | :03:47. | |
about action now. Next, MPs are still talking in there and will be | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
talking for the next 3.5 hours. We expect that vote at 10pm. David | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
Cameron as things stand at the moment has a working majority of | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
around 17. The smart thinking it is he will enhance the majority in | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
terms of the overall vote with the help of those eight DUP MPs and two | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
Ulster Unionist MPs. The meeting we don't know in terms of Northern | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
Ireland, of course SDLP will fought against, is what will happen with | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
Lady Sylvia Hermon. She says she will make her mind up at the very | :04:19. | :04:20. | |
last minute. While the politicians continue their | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
debate on military action, we've Not Westminster, but still, here, | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
debate over a drink. Should Britain take military action | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
against so-called Islamic State Well, I am always a great one for | :04:33. | :04:45. | |
talk before action. A trying time is all about talking. What are they | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
going to do, let them rule the world? Go get them and take them | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
out. No doubt we should hit them hard. Take it from me. Wherever you | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
go, opinion is next. It will put London at risk, you never know, even | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
Derry. I think we sometimes have to go in and say this is it. I would | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
be... You never know what is going to come out of it later on if you do | :05:11. | :05:12. | |
bomb Syria. A big threat, yes, | :05:13. | :05:13. | |
but one made even bigger by military If we sent warplanes to Syria now | :05:14. | :05:25. | |
and then one bomb astray and we see a child died on the street, then | :05:26. | :05:33. | |
that is their opportunity, they are looking for. They will record | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
themselves... So you believe by bombing the so-called Islamic State | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
in Syria, they are playing into their hands? Young people are | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
leaving from Europe. Why are they going there, because they are using | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
this propaganda. I think the opponents of bombing have won the | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
argument. I think David Cameron has to resort to calling them | :05:55. | :06:02. | |
sympathisers of terrorism, that shows you how weak his cases. But | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
those working in the media have witnessed a transformation in the | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
way public opinion grows and ships with millions now sharing their | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
experiences and thought on the internet. There is an awful lot more | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
opinion out there, some of that informed and so on but not so much | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
informed, and some of that outright propaganda but people have that | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
large platform when they can get the information from so many different | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
sources, and they can, make their own opinions and have their own | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
debates and that is not happening at the minute. I think that we don't | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
need another conflict that cost millions of taxpayers pounds. I | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
think, obviously, France and America have asked for help, if we, as | :06:44. | :06:50. | |
Labour help, we would expect it. However, -- ask for their help. One | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
thing is for sure, opinion is divided. | :06:56. | :06:57. | |
Other news in brief, and the man who died in yesterday's | :06:58. | :06:59. | |
road crash on the A1 was Eugene McNally, who had recently retired | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
Two other men were also injured in the two-vehicle collision close | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
Their injuries were not life-threatening. | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
A convicted Garda killer has been sentenced to 12 years | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
for repeatedly stabbing his estranged wife in front of their | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
Pearse McAuley also pleaded guilty to other charges, including falsely | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
A man's been arrested over a hammer attack on a Bangor community worker. | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
Aaron McMahon was assaulted in the Clandeboye Road area last week. | :07:32. | :07:44. | |
Detectives have revealed that a witness has contacted them with | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
significant new information in their investigation into a secret army | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
unit. It is alleged the unit shot unarmed civilians in Belfast in the | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
early 1970s. A member of the public phoned the police shortly after | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
their appeal for witnesses to two killings and other shootings. Our | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
Home Affairs Correspondent, Vincent Kearney supports. | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
43 years ago, members of a secret army unit used unmarked cars to | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
There were 40 members of what was called the Military Reaction Force. | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
Two years ago, a BBC Panorama programme broadcast claims | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
by former members who said the unit had shot unarmed civilians as part | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
They spoke on condition that their identities were disguised. | :08:25. | :08:33. | |
We were not there to act like an army unit. | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
We were there to act like a terror group. | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
We were not a death squad. We were there to do a job, to eliminate an | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
enemy that was worthless. After the programme was broadcast, | :08:49. | :08:49. | |
the Director of Public Prosecutions instructed | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
the PSNI to investigate the claims. This morning, the police issued | :08:53. | :08:53. | |
an appeal for anyone with information about the army unit's | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
alleged activities to come forward. They also released maps showing | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
the locations, dates and times of 18 shooting incidents, including | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
the killings of 44-year-old Patrick McVeigh in May 1972, and 18-year-old | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
Daniel Rooney four months later. Hours after making the appeal, | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
the detective leading the investigation said there'd been | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
a potential breakthrough. Today, I have had significant new | :09:18. | :09:29. | |
information into my investigation. A member of the public, a witness, as | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
phoned in 43 years later and that gives me great encouragement and I | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
would appeal to anyone, 43 years later, whatever information you | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
have, it may not significant to you but it could be highly significant | :09:43. | :09:44. | |
domain investigation, please come forward. What can you say about that | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
witness? It has provided me with significant new information, a new | :09:51. | :09:51. | |
line of enquiry. That news has been welcomed | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
by the daughter of one of the men I am delighted to hear it. The more | :09:57. | :10:05. | |
the merrier. It is very good. I am glad to hear it. It could be a vital | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
piece of information that could lead to a prosecution. | :10:10. | :10:10. | |
The MRF operated in West Belfast for 18 months | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
All records of its activities were destroyed. | :10:13. | :10:30. | |
A 15-year-old boy has been hit by a car and is in a critical condition | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
in hospital. He was on his way home from school when he was knocked down | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
on by a car and is in a critical condition in hospital. He was on his | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
way home from school when he was knocked | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
Next, another warning about staying safe on the internet, and the danger | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
of sinister individuals or groups who prey on young people online. | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
Our reporter Ita Dungan has been looking at the case | :10:57. | :10:58. | |
a tablet like this will be on many Christmas list this year. It will | :10:59. | :11:06. | |
provide many hours of fun, entertainment and education but it | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
can also be used to scam or blackmail a child and their parents | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
and that is what happened to 113-year-old girl from North Down | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
yesterday. When she -- 113-year-old girl. She clicked on an e-mail and | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
an indecent image came up her tablet shut down and this message | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
appeared. Complete with police force logos, it says you are accused of | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
viewing banned pornography including child pornography and rape. It goes | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
on to say that now you have viewed it, you could face prison for up to | :11:39. | :11:45. | |
five to 11 years. In thick legal language it then says this find. | :11:46. | :11:54. | |
13-year-old did not pay but it has affected her deeply. Access to these | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
images online is very traumatising, every bit as colonising as death or | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
mutilation. The first step is not to be frightened to talk to someone | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
about it. Talk to a parent, talk to a teacher. If you don't feel you can | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
do that, talk to our ChildLine service on the first step is not to | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
be frightened to talk to someone about it. Talk to a parent, talk to | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
a teacher. If you don't feel you can do that, talk to our ChildLine | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
service on oh you can prevent something like this by educating | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
about what is a weird looking e-mail? What should you click on? If | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
you don't know who a person is, pay close attention to it. Never trust | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
links in an e-mail. Type in the address of a site before you visited | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
rather than relying on the ink in the e-mail and clicking on it. The | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
message is, if you are buying a tablet for your child, put | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
restrictions in place and sit down and explain to them what a dodgy | :12:52. | :12:53. | |
e-mail could look like. The young entrepreneurs who are | :12:54. | :13:02. | |
talking their products straight to market. | :13:03. | :13:04. | |
There's controversy in Newry over a new big TV screen TV | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
The local council says it will help create a social hub. | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
The church says it wasn't consulted about the plan, | :13:13. | :13:14. | |
Newry Cathedral is one of the city's most iconic buildings and its | :13:15. | :13:26. | |
newest neighbour is at the heart of a holy row. We just want it moved. | :13:27. | :13:33. | |
It has to be moot. There is an absolute outcry by the parishioners | :13:34. | :13:41. | |
here in Newry. -- moved. As residents on Hill Street, there was | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
absolutely no consultation. As part of the planning application, the | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
planners have the responsibility to publicly advertise the applications. | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
It was in all of the local press. It is obviously in the shadow of the | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
cathedral. People aren't happy with that, what is your answer to that? | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
My view is that this is the event space for the city centre. The | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
council intended using this for a large number of events. We think the | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
location is perfect for all of the events that we will be organising. | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
Work is ongoing but the big screen will be up and running from the | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
start of next week. It's cost around ?110,000 and the council says it | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
will show a range of things from Christmas films to football at next | :14:28. | :14:30. | |
summer as European Championships. Public opinion remains divided. I | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
think is a bit of an eyesore to be honest with you. It's blocking the | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
view of our beautiful cathedral and a ticket should. I think it is a | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
billion payday. Social media is giving it a hard time at the minute. | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
If it improves the town centre or city centre it has to be good. Try | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
something different. I don't like the position. People on Hill Street, | :14:55. | :15:06. | |
as you see, very little shops around, more people back on Hill | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
Street the better. Times Square, perhaps not, but people in Newry | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
could be glued to a TV of a different kind this Christmas. | :15:16. | :15:17. | |
The BBC programme the Apprentice should have been in Belfast today, | :15:18. | :15:19. | |
because hundreds of young business people were | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
School pupils were selling products they'd designed, produced and | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
marketed themselves in a scheme run by the Young Enterprise charity. | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
Our Education Correspondent, Robbie Meredith, was there. | :15:31. | :15:38. | |
There are hundreds of students at St George's Market this morning, from | :15:39. | :15:45. | |
around 70 school run companies all of whom have set up and are running | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
their own business. Here is something high-tech. Adam, tell me | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
what you are selling. This is called the carb. It is a Bluetooth tracking | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
device which you would use quite often. So if you have keys? Even | :15:59. | :16:06. | |
pets that run around the house a lot. So he had taken this idea to | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
set up a company, what have you learnt from that? How to perform | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
professionally in front of business people. Like someone from the | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
apprentice, Adam, thanks. We have gone from something high-tech to | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
something traditional. Some gifts will comment particularly handy this | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
year. Tell us what your son. Christmas logs for anyone who wants | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
to buy them and they can be personalised. You have also set up | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
as a school to design and market them but there have been some speed | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
bumps. Tell about that. Some of our equipment didn't come in time, so we | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
had to drive up to Belfast one night to get the stock because we couldn't | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
do it without it. We left it a wee bit to the last minute so we need to | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
organise our time better. Lisa, thank you very much. Good luck. I am | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
also here with Carol that Simon is the CEO of the Young Enterprise. You | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
organise this. -- Carol that Simon. This is about giving young people | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
the opportunity to build skills for life and work. Give exposure to | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
business. We want to create a business economy and more | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
entrepreneurs but we also need young people who are skilled. We | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
constantly hear from the CBI and other organisations for the need for | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
young people to come work ready for them and that is what it is about. | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
Thank you. St George's Market today, lots for sale, lots of interest, I | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
might even start my Christmas shopping before Christmas Eve this | :17:32. | :17:32. | |
year. A unique world record is being | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
remembered in Scotland this year - the achievement of this group | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
of Irish miners. 60 years ago, | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
the Tunnel Tigers as they were known worked deep underground cutting out | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
rock for hydro-electricity schemes As Kevin Sharkey reports, their work | :17:47. | :17:48. | |
was part of a long tradition Immigration is part of Irish history | :17:49. | :18:06. | |
and tradition. Work and wages from abroad needed to sustain these | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
communities. High stakes and sometimes even higher risks | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
underground. In Scotland in 1955, this dangerous work give one group | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
of dollars a chance to set a world record. Among them, Colin | :18:20. | :18:30. | |
Gallagher, then and now. The dangers, and there was no safety. | :18:31. | :18:40. | |
You could wear a helmet or go without a helmet. Now you can't. | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
Other immigrants who also worked in tunnels across the UK are still in | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
all of the world record. They drilled through solid rock for 567 | :18:50. | :18:57. | |
feet and seven days. They never, ever in the history of mankind would | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
ever be done again. It was a superhuman effort. They worked for | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
me, supermen. -- were to me. This landscape of Donegal is not unlike | :19:10. | :19:15. | |
Scotland, rugged and imparts difficult to make a living from. But | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
in the middle of the last century, change came to Scotland, the advent | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
of hydroelectric systems that changed the life of Scotland and the | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
lives of communities here in Ireland. The people that worked in | :19:29. | :19:34. | |
Scotland, especially the people from Donegal, they sent the money home | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
through wires. They loaded the financial foundation of this country | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
even. But the benefits to some communities came at a cost for | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
other. Danger and death sometimes never far apart, in a poignant case, | :19:50. | :19:56. | |
two friends, one lived, one died. He was driving it out from the tunnel. | :19:57. | :20:06. | |
He asked me for a cigarette and they gave him a cigarette. He came out, | :20:07. | :20:15. | |
the next load came out, he was dead. Many tunnel workers are now living | :20:16. | :20:22. | |
retired in their homeland, but their contribution to Scotland will be | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
showcased at the new visitor centre being opened by southern and | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
Scottish energy and they have decided to acknowledge their work. | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
Back in Ireland, these communities still face challenges but they find | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
inspiration to front the sacrifices of immigrant workers on the road | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
less travelled in search of a better future. And a rainbow in the middle | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
of it all. Stephen Watson is here with the this | :20:51. | :20:51. | |
evening's sport - and Stephen, The World Cup is not long over, | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
and today came confirmation that reigning champions New Zealand are | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
Dublin-bound. Ireland will play both the | :20:59. | :21:00. | |
All Blacks and beaten World Cup finalists Australia in Novemeber | :21:01. | :21:02. | |
of next year. Meanwhile, Ulster's Franco Van der | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
Merwe has told BBC Newsline he's confident the team can halt | :21:07. | :21:08. | |
its recent run of poor form. Ulster lie seventh in the Pro12 | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
table after eight rounds of fixtures, level on points with | :21:13. | :21:14. | |
Edinburgh, their opponents at I think it happens to any sportsman. | :21:15. | :21:29. | |
You go through a sticky patch, but looking back at the Leinster game, | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
there was something that the guys showed, a lots of passion that the | :21:34. | :21:36. | |
guys showed. A lot of enthusiasm they showed on the day. If we can | :21:37. | :21:44. | |
show some of this week, we've had three games really going well for us | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
winning with bonus points, hopefully we can take the confidence into the | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
game, but it is important for us to play well. Friday's game is live on | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
BBC Two. Just a little over two years ago, | :21:56. | :21:57. | |
as a teenager, a freak accident on the rugby field | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
left David Ross wheelchair-bound. But | :22:01. | :22:02. | |
despite sustaining serious spinal injuries, the Moira man refused to | :22:03. | :22:03. | |
give up on the sport he loved. David now has his sights set on | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
the Paralympic Games, and has called on one of Ulster's most capped | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
players to help get him there. Just a week and a half after a | :22:10. | :22:21. | |
lengthy rehabilitation period in Musgrave Marcos Buttle, David Ross | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
was back in action. The first time I would've seen it was in 2012, | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
watching the TV, flicking it on. I would never have thought I would be | :22:33. | :22:37. | |
playing it, but eight months after that I had an accident playing rugby | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
which left me in a wheelchair. It was a freak accident. I don't blame | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
it. These things happen. You take it and adapt so that is what I'm doing | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
playing this board has definitely been a huge help to my physical and | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
mental well-being. And just how competitive does it get? Who better | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
to ask them a former Irish international? It has been great | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
crack. I didn't know what to expect but it is usually competitive and | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
physical which is great. That is what rugby is all about and taking | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
hits and shaking hands afterwards, no different here. The pinnacle in | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
the sport and the dream for David is to become a Paralympic in. I think | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
that is the ultimate goal for anyone with a disability. Just to get to | :23:25. | :23:32. | |
that level, I can't put it into words what I mean. Just thinking | :23:33. | :23:41. | |
about it is crazy. Rio come too soon to him but he will be pushing hard | :23:42. | :23:43. | |
to make the games. Ballymena United are through to | :23:44. | :23:46. | |
the first final It took a dramatic extra time winner | :23:47. | :23:48. | |
to overcome neighbours Larne 3-2. Linfield or Carrick await | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
in the County Antrim Shield final. This game came to life with just 14 | :23:55. | :24:09. | |
minutes of the 90 remaining. Stewart McMullen's superb strike looked to | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
have sealed victory for the championship side and a place in the | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
County Antrim decider. But Ballymena had other ideas. Willie Faulkner | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
equalising in the final minute to force extra time. Soon after, the | :24:26. | :24:35. | |
visitors took the lead. Lively substitute Darren Henderson putting | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
Glenn Ferguson's side ahead. The quickest to react when Faulkner's | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
shot was parried. But within five minutes, Lauren were level. Conall | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
McGrandless capitalising on some poor Ballymena defending to bundle | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
it into the net. Just when it look like the game would be settled on | :24:58. | :25:05. | |
penalties, Ballymena found a winner. Sealing a place in the final where | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
they will play either Linfield or Carrick Rangers when their semi was | :25:11. | :25:13. | |
postponed because of a waterlogged pitch. | :25:14. | :25:14. | |
Wladimir Klitschko has confirmed he wants to fight | :25:15. | :25:16. | |
Fury became world heavyweight champion. | :25:17. | :25:20. | |
The contract for the fight included a clause for a rematch. | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
He will be in training. The weather is next with Cecelia Daly. Thank | :25:28. | :25:34. | |
you. Some nice weather today. It will be chilly tonight but for a | :25:35. | :25:37. | |
while it was quite pleasant this afternoon. One of our original | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
weather watchers captured this shot on the north coast earlier today, | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
even the seagulls are happy that it has finally stopped raining. Chilly | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
tonight but not as cold as it was five years ago during the big freeze | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
when the River Foyle had slabs of ice on top of it. Temperatures | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
tonight quite warm in comparison but it will get close to freezing | :25:59. | :26:02. | |
especially across parts of the west towards the north coast where there | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
will be some frost. The frost won't necessarily be everywhere, mourning. | :26:08. | :26:09. | |
That is due to the weather front that will throw cloud up across | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
Belfast, County Down and Armagh tomorrow. Dry weather for tomorrow | :26:14. | :26:21. | |
night. Frost to begin with, especially in the West and up | :26:22. | :26:23. | |
towards the north coast. Everywhere will see some dry weather at some | :26:24. | :26:27. | |
stage of the day but it won't necessarily lust. To begin with | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
tomorrow morning, you might need to scrape your car windscreen in the | :26:32. | :26:37. | |
West. Apache frost and temperatures by the time we get to 9am might be | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
frost free. Cloudier skies creeping up over County Down and Armagh and | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
up towards Belfast, the threat of some rain. Hopefully nothing too | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
much, it will move away later in the day. Cooler everywhere,. | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
Temperatures into single figures, six or seven Celsius, about the time | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
of year. Still very light winds which is good and tomorrow night | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
will turn chilly again with one or two showers in the breeze. | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
Temperatures could get close to freezing in between, the risk of | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
frost and icy patches. Moving on to Friday, a reasonable amount of dry | :27:14. | :27:16. | |
weather through the day. The breeze picking up again and with that | :27:17. | :27:22. | |
milder air, rain returns later in the day and through Friday night, so | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
it is unsettled this weekend. The better of the two days looks Sunday. | :27:27. | :27:34. | |
Enjoy your evening. Thank you. Tonight's news is at a later time of | :27:35. | :27:38. | |
10:55pm because of the extended vote in the House of Commons. From us, | :27:39. | :27:40. | |
good night. | :27:41. | :27:42. |
