Plans for inquests into some of the most controversial killings | :00:16. | :00:21. | |
A tweet deleted - but the heat hasn't gone away over | :00:22. | :00:28. | |
A blow to Hazel Stewart's battle to keep the pension benefits | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
The tough conditions facing vegetable farmers, | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
at the mercy of the markets and the weather. | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
And after a couple of bright showery days tomorrow looks a bit more | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
A radical plan by Northern Ireland's most senior judge to deal | :00:47. | :00:57. | |
with inquests into some of the most controversial killings of | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
And the reason is that the Stormont Executive failed to sign off | :01:01. | :01:07. | |
The Lord Chief Justice Sir Declan Morgan wanted funding for a five | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
year programme to hear the inquests, but a proposed bid for the money | :01:13. | :01:20. | |
wasn't even discussed by the Executive. | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
Our home affairs correspondent Vincent Kearney | :01:23. | :01:23. | |
Dozens of outstanding legacy inquests remain to be heard. They | :01:24. | :01:36. | |
include some of the Troubles's most controversial dealings. -- killings. | :01:37. | :01:46. | |
A plan has been announced to break the logjam. All inquests could be | :01:47. | :01:53. | |
heard within five years. Among those who welcomed the announcement was | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
the daughter of one of those killed in Barry Murphy in 1971. The Lord | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
Chief Justice was very, very positive. He gave the families in | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
that room that hope. It was not just Barry Murphy families, it was loads | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
of victims. But the plan is now on hold. It is an established that the | :02:12. | :02:22. | |
plan was spoken to with Declan Morgan, and the secretary of state | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
released more than ?10 million of funding. The government has promised | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
to do with the past. But the issue wasn't included on the agenda for | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
discussion at the Executive last meeting in Derry in March. Their | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
discussion, no agreement, no funding. Last week, the judge in | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
charge of the Coroner's Court broke the news in the letter to legal team | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
strips and Tingley families who met Declan Morgan early this year. He | :02:50. | :02:59. | |
said the Lord Chief Justice is still awaiting a decision, and as a result | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
the letter said it is unclear when Sir Declan Morgan's plan can be | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
implemented. It is understood the Lord Chief Justice bitterly | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
disappointed by the Executive's failure to act on the proposal. This | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
man's son was with him on the day he was killed. He is now seriously ill | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
in hospital and family fears this delay will mean he does not see the | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
outcome of the inquest. It was promised before he died that the | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
case would be closed. And now I feel as if I am letting him down. Because | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
of what they promised him. He is not going to be seeing what he fought | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
for 445 years, for justice for his dad. Under executive rules, the | :03:45. | :03:54. | |
funding is proposed to make it onto the agenda for discussion. Arlene | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
Foster is accused of having blocked the discussion. The DUP said the | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
proposal would have impacted on the ability of the Executive to address | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
the needs of victims. In a statement, it said the issue will be | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
considered again by the new executive formed after this week's | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
assembly elections. Sinn Fein expressed concern that the Lord | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
Chief Justice's plan has been put on hold. It said the British Government | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
has a responsibility to fund the legacy inquests. | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
The First Minister Arlene Foster has issued a challenge to Sinn Fein | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
over Gerry Adams controversial use of the N-word in a tweet. | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
Mr Adams apologised yesterday for using the word in a reference | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
about a movie about slavery in America. | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
He later said he was comparing their plight to the treatment | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
The Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness said Mr Adams had made | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
Our political correspondent Enda McClafferty reports. | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
Even by his own admission, Gerry Adams lives life on the edge when it | :04:54. | :05:00. | |
comes to Twitter. But this latest tweet is one which just won't go | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
away. The Sinn Fein president had hoped his apology yesterday for | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
using the N word would draw a line under the controversy but today his | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
political opponents upped the ante. What it does is call in the very | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
serious question once again Gerry Adam's leadership of Sinn Fein and | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
his fitness to be a political leader in Ireland in this day and age. In | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
any other political party in many countries in the world in any | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
democratic society, someone countries in the world in any | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
remarks like that and then trying to defend them and try to explain them | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
away, it is usually the end of the political career. The DUP's First | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
Minister Arlene Foster then when they step further suggesting that | :05:43. | :05:49. | |
the leader needed to do more than a half-hearted apology. This is a big | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
challenge for the Sinn Fein leadership. Similar to Jeremy | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
Corbyn's challenge at the moment with Labour. Gerry Adams need to | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
step up to the mark and deal with this issue but everyone is watching | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
how he deals with it. In response, Sinn Fein said unlike the DUP they | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
have been unequivocal in word and deed in their opposition to racism | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
and described Arlene Foster's remarks as a cheap political swipe. | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
Jerry is just like the rest of us, I think it was an honest mistake | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
Jerry is just like the rest of us, I its credentials and standing up for | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
people who have been treated unjustly, marginalised, disseminated | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
against in the society right across clearly suggests to me that on this | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
occasion this was an aberration. clearly suggests to me that on this | :06:38. | :06:45. | |
think that this is something that no dance Gerry regrets. However | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
concerned Sinn Fein might be mad it has been covered in the US was it | :06:52. | :07:00. | |
has been covered by a large number of organisations. I think it would | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
damage Northern Ireland, creating the wealth that I want in Northern | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
Ireland. Any funny why he wanted to draw the comparison between the | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
blood of slaves in America and Irish nationals here Gerry Adams claimed | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
he was a founding member of the civil rights movement. | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
he was a founding member of the according to the commentator Brian | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
Feeney. In 1964, he was 18, and everyone knows who the founding | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
members work to set up the civil rights Association. Gerry Adams was | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
involved in protests about housing and tenant associations, and flat | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
and joined the Civil Rights Association but certainly wasn't | :07:38. | :07:39. | |
involved in founding the Civil Rights. The Sinn Fein president was | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
back on Twitter this morning, telling his 100,000 plus followers | :07:47. | :07:53. | |
what he was doing today. There seems to be one tweet still missing from | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
his account and it will follow him for much longer than he likes. | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
A man in his fifties died and five others were taken to hospital | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
after a three-vehicle crash in County Antrim. | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
The crash happened on the Collin Road between Ballyclare | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
A second man, a woman, two girls and a boy | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
Two of them are said to be in a critical condition. | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
A man has pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of his mother | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
The body of 69-year-old Margaret Evans was discovered in June 2014. | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
Margaret Evans was a well-known local businesswoman. The | :08:29. | :08:41. | |
69-year-old, known as Margo operated a hair salon for years before | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
stepping down in January 2000 14. Just months later, her badly beaten | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
body was discovered at her home. Her 32-year-old son was charged with her | :08:54. | :08:59. | |
murder. Initially he entered a not guilty plea and was held under the | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
Mental Health Act but today he pleaded guilty to manslaughter on | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
the grounds of diminished responsibility and was remanded back | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
into custody. He will be sentenced next month. | :09:12. | :09:12. | |
The convicted double-killer Hazel Stewart has been denied legal | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
aid in a financial case relating to the husband she murdered. | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
She wants to keep the police pension benefits which she received | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
A court case that was due to start tomorrow has been postponed. | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
Hazel Stewart and Colin Howell were jailed for murder. 25 years ago they | :09:29. | :09:41. | |
were having a affair with each other and killed their first spouses. | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
Trevor Buchanan and Lesley Howell. It looked like suicide with over two | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
decades passing before they were convicted. After the Buchanan death, | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
Hazel Stewart was on a police pension. Now the National Crime | :09:57. | :10:01. | |
Agency want her to repay that money under proceeds of crime legislation. | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
But the schoolteacher is challenging the agency. However, the court heard | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
today that she has failed to get legal aid. The case centres on money | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
which has since been tied up in the family home with her second husband, | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
with her head during the murder trial. He is also challenging the | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
National Crime Agency case. Kevin Sharkey, BBC newsline. | :10:25. | :10:26. | |
Tributes have been paid to the painter Basil Blackshaw | :10:27. | :10:28. | |
He was well known for his paintings of everyday subjects including | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
Our arts correspondent Robbie Meredith looks back | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
Bold, brilliant, and an arsonist who took a fresh look at everything | :10:39. | :10:53. | |
which surrounded him. Basil was the great figurative painter, giving it | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
all the sense of place. A painter who was so deeply rooted in the | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
Ulster countryside, particularly Antrim and North Down where he grew | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
up and really spent his whole career, so he is deeply embedded | :11:06. | :11:12. | |
into the landscape. Basil Blackshaw was one of our most distinctive and | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
talented artists with an international reputation. | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
Personally, he shunned the limelight, giving his first on | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
camera interview earlier this year for a BBC documentary. If you hadn't | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
been an artist, what would you might have been? A butcher. He once even | :11:28. | :11:36. | |
turned up at an exhibition of his own work with a paper bag over his | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
head so people would not recognise him but the influence he had on | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
other artists was enormous. He could have been the most important | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
European painter of the last 50 years if not one of. But arousal, | :11:47. | :11:56. | |
the Basil who I knew, wasn't interested in that. Basil | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
Blackshaw's life began and ended in his beloved County Antrim | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
countryside. It was a land he betrayed to the world. -- portrayed. | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
Commercial vegetable growers have been urged to band together | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
to have greater influence with the supermarkets. | :12:14. | :12:15. | |
Selling to the bigger concerns can be difficult and unpredictable. | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
Our agriculture correspondent Conor Macauley has visited one farm | :12:20. | :12:21. | |
A lots more farmers used to grow vegetables. Many got out because | :12:22. | :12:36. | |
they couldn't make it pay. Lead go up Paddy Flynn almost did that too. | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
This spring, faced with slim margins and rising wages, he almost pulled | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
the plug and laid off staff only the promise of a better price from | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
customers, including some supermarkets, kept him going. But | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
slim margins at and the lack of formal supply contracts push much of | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
the risk in this precarious as this on two men like Paddy. One | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
supermarket we were dealing with was only selling 25 to 30% of the line | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
we were doing into them. It was a bit late notice, the crop was | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
already on the ground, there was nothing we could do it, other than | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
put it back into the ground. Ten acres that's a huge cost. That's | :13:18. | :13:24. | |
?30,000. Yes, it is. The weather is the other big risk, especially Hale, | :13:25. | :13:29. | |
which batters the crop. It turned up as re-filmed right on cue. -- as we | :13:30. | :13:39. | |
filmed. This is a five acre field, one of Paddy's other crop. This film | :13:40. | :13:48. | |
protects the crop. This hail shower might have wiped out this crop, a | :13:49. | :13:53. | |
potential loss of ?50,000 -- ?15,000. The weather and fickle | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
demand of big buyers is why vegetable growers are being urged to | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
come together to produce a producers organisation. It is a cooperative | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
used to keep things down -- keep costs down by working together, on | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
negotiations for prices paid on their produce. Individuals fallen | :14:15. | :14:17. | |
billy macro smaller farmers don't have a voice against the larger | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
supermarkets and we find this would be a way forward, and it is | :14:22. | :14:28. | |
something that is popular and indeed happened in England. Supermarkets | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
like to trumpet their support for local produce, growers say that's | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
great, but the price they pay must reflect the cost and challenges | :14:36. | :14:36. | |
involved. The west link in Belfast has been | :14:37. | :14:48. | |
reopened following an incident at the bridge. Movement is slow and not | :14:49. | :14:54. | |
gods are expected, and disruption has happened to bus services as | :14:55. | :14:55. | |
well. 17 people, all pensioners, | :14:56. | :14:57. | |
have had a brush with a parking enforcement agency for putting | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
their mopeds on a pavement in The group from the Wirral | :15:01. | :15:02. | |
in Liverpool have been travelling None of us like to see this slapped | :15:03. | :15:17. | |
on a mode of transport. When we broke up and came down to breakfast, | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
we found that every single mopeds has got a parking ticket on it. 17 | :15:22. | :15:28. | |
mopeds were ticketed, one big fine for this group of fundraising | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
pensioners from the Wirral. Seven days, 500 miles, and a few hundred | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
quid raised. We think it will be over ?1000, we think. But when you | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
think, you know, ?1700 in parking fees... We are all pensioners, our | :15:45. | :15:51. | |
average age is about 70. If you add up all our ages, 18 of us, it comes | :15:52. | :15:58. | |
to 1241. We are cracking on a bet and our bikes are typically about | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
to 1241. We are cracking on a bet to 40 years old. Old mopeds, | :16:03. | :16:04. | |
basically. But as a bit of a challenge to write these things. | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
What has the company issuing these fines heard to say about this | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
question but I will find them. I have two e-mail for a response. They | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
have come through it all, including our four seasons in one day weather. | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
We've had breakdowns, a few little crashes, punctures, engine seized | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
up. One on a trailer over there. Generally we have survived. We've | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
managed. The company e-mailed the BBC, the fines have been cancelled. | :16:36. | :16:38. | |
The group can now get back on their bikes happy in the knowledge that | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
charity is a few hundred quid better off. | :16:43. | :16:43. | |
In under 48 hours the polls will open in the Assembly election. | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
Ahead of that for the last of our interviews with the main | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
party leaders, our political leader Mark Devenport went | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
to County Fermanagh to meet the DUP leader Arlene Foster relaxing | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
I don't spend enough time here, because we don't have enough time. | :16:58. | :17:08. | |
So not much time to mess about on boats? No, unfortunately not. So, | :17:09. | :17:15. | |
this is a bit of a luxury, then? Absolutely, but I love getting | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
this is a bit of a luxury, then? on the loch, but as it is very | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
beautiful, restful, peaceful. You are not a sailor yourself, then? No, | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
I don't have the doubles what's do you do to relax? With three kids | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
don't have much time for that, but walking is my great passion. Lots of | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
walking. This boat is a bit big for you, but I know that you do know how | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
to handle a canoe? Yes, I do, our local branch has a manual canoe down | :17:41. | :17:41. | |
on the local branch has a manual canoe down | :17:42. | :17:49. | |
here. That must take a while. Let's take it away. Do your colleagues | :17:50. | :17:58. | |
find a female leader hard to get used to? That's a question for them, | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
not me I have had tremendous my male colleagues and it has been very | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
not me I have had tremendous my male evident over the term since I have | :18:07. | :18:07. | |
become First Minister that they have evident over the term since I have | :18:08. | :18:14. | |
it is very much built evident over the term since I have | :18:15. | :18:16. | |
personality. Does that make you an easy or not? No. Argues | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
personality. Does that make you an self-effacing? It is a confirmation | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
personality. Does that make you an of the confidence my colleagues have | :18:25. | :18:24. | |
in me that we decided to of the confidence my colleagues have | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
that route. I suppose I'm the new phase of the DUP, the party leader, | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
now, and since 18th of December. That has been very humbling, I have | :18:33. | :18:34. | |
to say. Back to the left them a bit. That has been very humbling, I have | :18:35. | :18:40. | |
This is difficult stuff. I tell you That has been very humbling, I have | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
what, I think I'd rather have the hand on the tiller of the country | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
than this. You are rated people person, but you have a short fuse, | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
don't you? So I'm told. So I'm told. There is evidence. The macro is | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
there really, I can't recall when that was. Would you like to | :18:58. | :18:58. | |
elucidate? On the water, is that was. Would you like to | :18:59. | :19:07. | |
high watermark? That was a great occasion will and many pundits would | :19:08. | :19:14. | |
have put us less than 30 seats. We have fought for every seat, with 44 | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
candidates put forward, and I'm going out and about writing for | :19:20. | :19:25. | |
every of them. As far as the Euros are concerned, who is getting your | :19:26. | :19:34. | |
backing? Absolutely: Ireland all -- Northern Ireland all the way. If | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
Northern Ireland were to get knocked out, would you switch your | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
allegiances? I'm not even considering that. It is tremendous | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
to seem the Republic of Ireland, England and Wales and all at the | :19:48. | :19:56. | |
Euros. Having been to the stadium recently, the spirit behind them is | :19:57. | :20:01. | |
incredible. Everyone involved behind the green and white top army is | :20:02. | :20:08. | |
incredible. People from right across the community are now getting behind | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
the Northern Ireland team and I think that is wonderful, brilliant. | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
Arlene Foster, talking to Mark Davenport. | :20:15. | :20:16. | |
And at eight o'clock this evening, here on BBC One, | :20:17. | :20:18. | |
Martin O'Neill has hailed it as the greatest sporting achievement | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
Gavin Andrews is here with this evening's sport. | :20:23. | :20:29. | |
Gavin, he had to be referring to Leicester City. | :20:30. | :20:31. | |
Yes, Donna, Martin O'Neill, a former manager of the Foxes, | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
is one of the many respected figures in football to congratulate | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
current boss Claudio Ranieri on guiding Leicester | :20:38. | :20:46. | |
The sun shone on Leicester City manager driving into work this | :20:47. | :20:53. | |
morning. Claudio Ranieri's team now the best and brightest in Berkeley | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
by the Premier League. Lester was filled with straight Alistair | :21:00. | :21:01. | |
Darling, still in disbelief. As was this lifelong supporter, now living | :21:02. | :21:03. | |
and working in Northern Ireland. I couldn't stop shaking. And then the | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
final whistle went and it was just utter, utter elation. Disbelief. We | :21:11. | :21:16. | |
were the Premier League champions! And then I cried! Lester's rapid | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
rise from relegation favourites to league champions has been described | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
as the greatest fairy tale in sporting history. It has been | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
fantastic, absolutely phenomenal, and I suppose in this day and age | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
when you consider that money is of primary importance, then you have do | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
think that Leicester City's performance and the winning of the | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
championship has been just sensational. It is the stuff of | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
fantasy, which places the pride of the East Midlands at the heart of | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
the most improbable of sporting triumphs. | :21:50. | :21:51. | |
72 hours on, the fall out continues, following one of the most | :21:52. | :21:54. | |
dramatic concluding days in the Irish league. | :21:55. | :21:56. | |
Ards are promoted to the Danskebank premiership. | :21:57. | :21:58. | |
Ballinamallard meet Institute in a playoff, | :21:59. | :22:00. | |
and, controversially, Warrenpoint are relegated. | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
Ballinamallard town needed a win to maintain their place and they did | :22:04. | :22:13. | |
their part by scoring in maintain their place and they did | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
half. But this game, this season, all came down to this moment. The | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
referee blew his whistle, and awarded a controversial penalty. | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
Replay showed it should have been a free kick to one point instead, the | :22:27. | :22:35. | |
side Jody frustration for the referee. It was saved, then save the | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
game, but eventually the ball went in. Dungannon snatch the draw and | :22:40. | :22:50. | |
Ballinamallard went down. I need to watch my language. I am 100% sure | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
that the decision was spot on. Was it a 50-50 challenge? Our defender | :22:56. | :23:01. | |
wins the ball, he was lost to the ground in complete pain was the | :23:02. | :23:03. | |
attacker walks away. Let's face facts billy macro facts, it's not | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
about today. Prior to this, every week, week in week out, premiership | :23:11. | :23:17. | |
games out of ten of them, we are the centre of attention. Every week. | :23:18. | :23:27. | |
Warrenpoint won't be in the contention next week. That's because | :23:28. | :23:29. | |
of this contentious decision. Paddy Paddy Jackson scored 18 points | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
as Ulster strengthened their grip on a Pro12 play-off place | :23:34. | :23:35. | |
with a comprehensive victory A penalty try helped the hosts lead | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
10-6 at the break before Jared Payne and then Jackson crossed | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
in the second half. The win guarantees Ulster | :23:43. | :23:44. | |
a European Champions Cup place ahead of their final game | :23:45. | :23:46. | |
against the Ospreys. obviously delighted and a bit of a | :23:47. | :23:57. | |
relief, we knew how big this game was and how big the challenge was | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
against such a strong Leinster team and it was one of those days, things | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
clicked for us, and I'm happy for myself just getting kicks and the | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
triad BN. I felt comfortable moving around, so it was good. Now that we | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
have the wind, it is a bit of the weight of the shoulders, putting us | :24:15. | :24:16. | |
in a nice place. And you can see that final game | :24:17. | :24:17. | |
of the regular season Coverage on Saturday | :24:18. | :24:19. | |

glorious sunshine in between times. Here is the picture again. Castle | :24:44. | :24:48. | |

getting through as well but those clear slots will start to fill in | :24:58. | :25:00. | |
during the course of the night. This cloud urges its way in. A bit of a | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
southerly breeze, meaning it won't be too chilly in the countryside, | :25:05. | :25:08. | |

cloud around, and the breeze will become a again. There is a bit of | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
rain in the forecast for some, but not too bad. A bit of dry weather, | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
