Good evening and welcome to BBC Newsline.

Tributes have been paid across the island of Ireland

to the broadcaster Sir Terry Wogan, who died today at the age of 77

Sir Terry started his broadcasting career on RTE before moving

to the BBC where he established himself as a broadcasting legend.

Our reporter Lisa McAllister has been taking a look

Listen, lads, don't panic, don't panic, look, I'll tell

Will you talk amongst yourselves, listeners, for just a moment?

With his warm broadcasting style, dry wit and wry reflections on life,

over the years Sir Terry attracted a devoted fanbase of millions.

And to those who knew him, he was the most special of friends.

We went over last Thursday and chatted with the family.

It was a very sad day but a very quiet day.

There was a great calmness over the family and Terry

They phoned me this morning to say he had gone to his heavenly reward

and we are all enormously sad really, enormously.

But grateful for I have known a true gentleman

He started his broadcasting career at RTE before moving

across the water and joining the BBC in the late '60s,

where he soon became a popular fixture on both radio and TV.

But the Limerick man never forgot his roots.

He had a great part to play in our being on these shows,

the fact that he was Irish and we were Irish.

He never forgot where he came from even though I suppose a lot

of people just saw him as a presenter in the UK,

I think Terry was very aware of his roots.

I believe Terry was unique not only as a broadcaster but as a person,

because he had the most incredible sense of humour,

but he was also a very well read and intelligent man.

A tireless charity campaigner, he raised millions of pounds

And throughout his career, his laid back manner made it seem

as though nothing phased him, even when faced with interviewing

The booze is still important, yeah.

When asked by the Queen how long he had worked at the BBC,

he replied, "Your Majesty, I've never worked here."

I've had a loving family, I've had a loving wife.

I've had success in the material world.

Four prison officers have been injured in an incident involving

An investigation into what happened is now underway.

A new 20mph speed limit came into force around

The zone takes in May Street at the back of City Hall,

goes on as far as the Cathedral Quarter before going past the back

Drivers have been advised to keep a look out for new signage which has

been put in place to mark out the new limits.

Sport now and on the opening weekend of Gaelic football's

Allianz National Football League, there were wins today for,

among others, Monaghan, Tyrone and Derry.

Meanwhile Donegal travelled to Newry last night and came away

Paddy McBrearty was one of the stars in an impressive win over Down.

On the night Ryan McHugh also scored two goals,

as Donegal romped to a 17-point win over their out-of-sorts hosts.

Now, just time to tell you about a story we'll be bringing

Would you know what to do if your child or a child

They are more common than you think and they can affect children right

And that's coming up this week on BBC Newsline at 6:30pm.

Here's Cecilia Daly with a look at the weather forecast.

Are good evening. Storm Henry will bring gusts in excess of 70 mph to

parts of Britain and Ireland during the poorest on Monday. The winds

were gradually pick up tonight and it will be a mild night. Rain and

drizzle to come through some clearer conditions editing in from the west

by morning. When the first thing but the winds will increase as the day

goes on. This is storm Henry. He has been developing in the Atlantic

today. Moved closer to the UK and Ireland tomorrow and as a result all

these lines are an idea of how windy it is going to get. So by the end of

Monday, some really tightly squeezed lines there which will mean some

very stormy weather in places particularly through Monday evening

and night. A stormy start to the week. Balancing winds, possibly

disruption to power and travel and transport. The torture will be up

and down this week as well as different weather systems come

through from time to time. -- temperatures will be up and down. A

Yellow warning tomorrow. That could be upgraded to amber tomorrow they

treat was the north coast. Stay tuned to the forecast. Nine o'clock

in the morning there was strong winds so to kick in. It will be a

bright morning. Showers on and off through the day and increasingly

windy. Amber wind warnings for Scotland. Yellow wind warnings for

England and also the Republic of. Not so windy further south across

England and Wales. After a mild start in there now and it will get

colder as the decor is owned by showers are still falling as rain.

The main focus is the wind. Strongest likely to come tomorrow

evening and night with damage and a shattering quite possible. Still

windy on Tuesday although it will be a bit of a reduction. Showers

turning wintry in many northern and western areas Winter finally ease on

Wednesday. Dry and bright in many places for a time before the

explanation comes in from the West to bring milder, wetter and windier

weather on Thursday. Not as windy as tomorrow. Very much a mixed week of

weather once again. Particularly windy and stormy in places.

Tomorrow. Our next BBC Newsline bulletin

is at 6:25am in the morning. From everyone on the BBC Newsline

team, good bye.
