That's all from the BBC News at Six. We can | :00:00. | :00:15. | |
Good evening, the headlines on BBC Newsline: The partner of a man shot | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
dead in West Belfast says those who murdered him are cowards. | :00:21. | :00:31. | |
Everyone in the community knows exactly who it is and these people | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
are getting away with it. Cowboys with guns. | :00:37. | :00:37. | |
killer Robert Howard could have been charged with Arlene Arkinson's | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
At Stormont, a programme for Government document is given | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
Also on the programme tonight: Ryan Giggs remembers a talented | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
Strabane footballer who was tipped for stardom with Manchester United. | :00:52. | :01:01. | |
As a player he was electric. His speed off the mark was frightening, | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
really. and it's underway on the North | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
Coast. Join me live at | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
motorcyclings NW 200. And there's a batch of rain heading | :01:14. | :01:15. | |
in later tonight and The partner of the man shot dead | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
in West Belfast last night has described the killers as cowards | :01:18. | :01:28. | |
and cowboys with guns. The 55-year-old man had been wounded | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
in a previous gun attack last year. Daniela Murray was leeward to his | :01:32. | :01:49. | |
death by a bogus order to deliver a Chinese takeaway. He arrived at the | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
address in Lady Street at about 10:20pm where he was shot in the | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
head as he sat in his car. Police believe the fake order was made from | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
this public phone box near the junction of the Antrim and | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
Cliftonville Road is just before 10pm. They have appealed for | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
information about any suspicious activity. Police say Mr Murray was a | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
well-known and had a lengthy criminal record. In January, in an | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
unrelated incident, he spoke after witnessing a West Belfast car | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
accident as he held his two year old son. He actually jumped into my arms | :02:22. | :02:30. | |
and head-butted me. They murdered a man had been targeted before. In | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
March last year he was shot in the face by gunmen who came to his home. | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
This is the house in north Belfast were Daniela Murray was shot and | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
wounded just over a year ago. He strongly maintained his innocence | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
and said he was not going to leave his home, even though his partner | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
had wanted to and feared for his safety. His partner had to break | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
into her own house this morning because the keys are believed to be | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
part of the police investigation. She spoke of their battle to find | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
out why Daniel Murray had been attacked in the past. I never | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
thought a year ago I would be sitting in this position of having | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
to bury him. Never. It just doesn't seem really yet. It hasn't sunk in | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
at all. I keep thinking he's just going to come back. Having had this | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
attack before, when you prepared for something bad to happen? No. After | :03:25. | :03:31. | |
the last time, we went to every political party we could think of | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
and are no one knew anything about it. They were not giving us and this | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
is. We don't know who has done it all understand. -- all understand. | :03:40. | :03:47. | |
Everybody in the community knows and these people are getting away with | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
it. Cowboys with guns. You can't think of any reason, though there | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
was talk at the time he was dealing in drugs? That has always been said. | :03:57. | :04:02. | |
He has never, ever been convicted of drugs. There is no charge on his | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
record. It is the rumour mill is trying to justify what they've done. | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
The police have refused to speculative the motive for the | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
killing or the allegation that dissident Republicans were involved. | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
At the three shootings within 24 hours in North and West Belfast, | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
there have been fears of a gang culture on the streets. Clearly is a | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
matter of concern there have been three shooting incidents within | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
Belfast in the last 24 hours, however, we're not making a link | :04:29. | :04:30. | |
between those incidents at this time. We are keeping an open mind | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
and I would appeal to anyone with any information of any of those | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
incidents to come forward. They made us the content -- condemned by | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
politicians and Sinn Fein spoke to the police this morning. We asked | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
them what they are doing about it and they in turn are are pursuing us | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
to speak publicly on this. We have done it. If anyone has information | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
common matter how small that information is, you bring it | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
forward. They will be a postmortem on Mr Murray's Wadi tomorrow | :05:04. | :05:05. | |
morning. -- body tomorrow morning. A senior detective who briefly led | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
the inquiry into the disappearance of Arlene Arkinson in 1994 has told | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
an inquest that she was Norman Baxter also said the prime | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
suspect Robert Howard could have been charged | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
with her murder years earlier. Arlene Arkinson went missing after a | :05:22. | :05:33. | |
night out in August 19 94. She was just 15 years old. Eight years later | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
in 2002, this manner, now retired, Detective Superintendent Norman | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
Baxter took over the inquiry, determined to move things along. In | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
court, Norman Baxter said he found the inquiry in a vacant position, | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
neither closed nor open and fell to the Arkansas the family had not been | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
well treated. He assembled a new team team with resources and | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
although her body has never been found, in just over two mark of | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
months, he had charged Robert Howard with Arlene's murder. By 2002 | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
committee told the court, I would say she is a forgotten victim. That | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
is quite a terrible thing. And he added later, Robert Howard could | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
have been charged years earlier. Robert Howard was brought in for | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
interview, already on remand for the murder of 14 eight-year-old Hannah | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
Williams in 2001. Her body had been found in Kent, just as mixed Baxter | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
started on the Ark in some case. The court heard that after he was | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
charged with Arlene's murder, Howard lost control. Within a few hours, Mr | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
Baxter said Robert Howard asked to see him, extremely agitated and | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
totally dishevelled as well is very unsettled. He said he seemed to | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
indicate he may cooperate with the police to help find Arlene's body | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
and asked if he might serve any sentence in Maghaberry prison in | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
Northern Ireland which she thought that a better conditions than | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
prisons in England. Later, Howard was convicted of the murder of | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
Hannah Williams. He didn't stand trial in 2005 for murdering Arlene, | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
but was acquitted. The jury he had not known about his other crimes. He | :07:14. | :07:14. | |
died in prison in England last year. The SDLP says a new outline | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
programme for Government the party has been shown is a long way short | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
of something they can agree on. The parties have until Thursday | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
to respond to the document. Here's our political | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
correspondent, Gareth Gordon. They were no sooner in a they were | :07:30. | :07:43. | |
out with a document outlining a programme for Government, so what do | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
they think? We are very, very far off a substantial programme for | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
Government that meets the needs of all those people who express their | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
anger in this election. There are three tests. First, is a | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
progressive, three tests. First, is a | :07:59. | :08:06. | |
is a security situation, the one which caused the party to leave the | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
Executive. which caused the party to leave the | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
Nesbitt met the Chief Constable to discuss shootings, | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
Nesbitt met the Chief Constable to night's murder. We left the | :08:17. | :08:18. | |
Executive as a protest over murders on the streets and the denial by | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
Sinn Fein over the assessment regarding the IRA. It is | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
disappointing that the IRA are still in existence, but Sinn Fein and the | :08:27. | :08:28. | |
IRA will not dictate how we use our in existence, but Sinn Fein and the | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
mandate full stop it certainly does not encourage us back into the | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
Cammack executive, that there are other tests. What happens next? They | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
have been given unsought Thursday to make a formal initial response, that | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
is also the day the new Assembly meets for the first time, thus | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
beginning a fortnight long negotiation. But what have they been | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
asked to agree on? Sources close to the negotiations describe what will | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
eventually emerge as a framework programme for Government. At the end | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
of this year, a detailed programme for Government will be produced. | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
There will also be a Budget for the next 3-4 years and documents setting | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
out strategies on the economy, capital investment and social | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
policy. Sources say they have looked closely at the model that Scotland, | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
for a series of outcomes described by the Government wants to achieve | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
for a series of outcomes described over the next decade. They say this | :09:23. | :09:24. | |
is not a programme for one Assembly mandate. The impression is now | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
unavoidable that Sinn Fein and the DUP have decided that the way they | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
wants to go forward. The other parties have very big decisions to | :09:35. | :09:36. | |
make. A man has been jailed | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
for two-and-half years after pleading guilty to motoring | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
offences that include causing death Paul Nicholl, who is 50 | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
and from Carnkenny Road in Newtownstewart, | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
was two-and-a-half times over limit when his car crashed | :09:48. | :09:49. | |
into another vehicle near Sion Mills 62-year-old Patsy McCrory | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
was killed in the crash. Nicholl will also serve a further | :09:57. | :10:03. | |
two-and-a-half years on licence and was disqualified | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
from driving for six years. They're police Sergeant and a former | :10:07. | :10:20. | |
civilian member of staff are to be charged with gross negligence | :10:21. | :10:21. | |
manslaughter in connection with the death of | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
David McGowan, who was 28 and from the city, died a few hours | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
after he was arrested in Belfast on the 30th of May 2014. | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
Northern Ireland's Attorney General has said that a court was wrong | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
to rule that a Christian-run bakery unlawfully discriminated | :10:35. | :10:36. | |
against a customer when it refused to make a cake | :10:37. | :10:38. | |
John Larkin QC made the comments today at the Court of Appeal, where | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
the owners of Ashers Baking Company are seeking to overturn | :10:45. | :10:46. | |
the judgment, which was made by the County Court last year. | :10:47. | :10:56. | |
The family of a soldier killed in the welsh town of Brecon | :10:57. | :11:04. | |
are travelling there to give support to other relatives. | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
Two men in their twenties are being questioned on suspicion | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
of murdering Matthew Boyd who was originally | :11:10. | :11:11. | |
Private Matthew Boyd from the Royal Gibraltar Regiment was helping new | :11:12. | :11:22. | |
recruits in the Brecon Beacons. But it was on a night off in a nearby | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
town that he was found injured and unconscious. He was taken to | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
hospital, but later died. His family will tonight be at Brecon to support | :11:31. | :11:41. | |
his father. Tonight he will prepare to see Matthew and say his goodbyes | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
tomorrow, he is finding that very hard today. And you are the family | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
are hoping to be there to help him through that? Yes, myself and my | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
mother flying out of Dublin tonight. We feel that we need to be there to | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
him. Private Boyd was about to complete four years service was due | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
to renew his army contract. He was born in Northern Ireland before | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
moving to trouble also. -- Gibraltar. Charming, handsome, last | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
year was the first -- last time we spent the summer together and | :12:15. | :12:16. | |
Matthew had told us he would not be able to make it, but he came on a | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
surprise visit and spent a few days with us and I'm glad he managed to | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
do that. That was the last holiday we ever had with him. He managed to | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
get me on a banana boat! In nearly drowned me. He pulled me out and got | :12:33. | :12:40. | |
me back on board. Police are still holding two men in connection with | :12:41. | :12:42. | |
the death which happened in the early hours of Sunday morning. | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
Belfast Shipyard is preparing for a new launch. | :12:46. | :12:47. | |
Not a ship, but the world's most powerful tidal energy turbine. | :12:48. | :12:49. | |
It's just been assembled and our business correspondent | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
The turbine has taken a year to build and unlike other tidal units, | :12:55. | :13:08. | |
it will float on the water rather than be fixed to the sea bed. What | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
is painted yellow will appear above the surface. The yard last made a | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
ship 13 years ago and it is now reborn as marine engineering | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
business and the company behind this turbine nose of the importance of | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
new work. Iconic places like Harland and Wolff do we need to see new | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
businesses and industries started, so I think it is a very telling and | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
hopefully a good indicator that perhaps these are the beginnings of | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
new shoots that could see yobs like Ghana continue to be great | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
industrial players going into the future. In coming days, a famous | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
shipyard crane will lower 500 turners of new technology into | :13:51. | :13:56. | |
Belfast -- Belfast Lough, is destination after trials on the | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
Orkney Islands. Under the belly of this beast, rotor blades will extend | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
outwards to capture the par of the sea. The machine is a two megawatts | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
tidal turbine which is the largest to date. It is capable of generating | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
enough power for several thousand homeless and is probably similar in | :14:15. | :14:17. | |
scale to some of the large wind turbines use the onshore. The yard | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
faces challenging times and recently announced 60 job losses, about one | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
third of its core workforce. And as it prepares to launch this turbine, | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
it is seeking out new pipelines of work. Of course, this is a much, | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
much quieter place than when 35,000 people worked here in its heyday as | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
one of the world's great shipyards. But there remains a heartbeat at | :14:43. | :14:44. | |
Harland and Wolff. The Ulster University building | :14:45. | :14:51. | |
project in Belfast is one of the biggest in Northern Ireland, | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
but part of the new campus will open The delay will affect students | :14:55. | :14:57. | |
and staff transferring from courses at the university's | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
Jordanstown campus, as our Education Correspondent | :15:01. | :15:02. | |
Robbie Meredith reports. It is a two minute ?50 million | :15:03. | :15:14. | |
development which will change the landscape and Skyline of Belfast | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
city centre. But some of that change is happening more slowly than | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
expected. The old arts college part of the new campus has been rebuilt | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
and the building is going up opposite York Street computing, | :15:28. | :15:33. | |
engineering and social sciences business students from Jordanstown | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
in September 2000 18. The following reported today's Irish News, Ulster | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
University have said this part of the campus will not be ready to take | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
students and staff until a year later. That is in September 2000 19. | :15:46. | :15:51. | |
A statement, they said it was not unusual for major construction | :15:52. | :15:53. | |
projects to experience some delays and they remain in close contact | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
with the contractor. There have been some previous difficulties for the | :15:59. | :16:04. | |
university. Antrim and new but Abbey Council rejected plans to sell off | :16:05. | :16:06. | |
the Jordanstown site for private housing. They are appealing that | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
decision. Bring to grab 15,000 students and staff from Jordanstown | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
to hear will totally alter this part of the city. They will now be close | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
attention paid of the city. They will now be close | :16:19. | :16:20. | |
revised deadline for that move will be met. | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
of the biggest names in football, inclusing players like Ryan Giggs. | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
for greatness until injury cut short his career. | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
about the young man who came so close to achieving his dream. | :16:39. | :16:39. | |
about the young man who came were used as goalposts, it | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
about the young man who came obvious that the shy, Jimmy and | :16:47. | :16:48. | |
savour winger wearing his favourite Manchester United top stood out. | :16:49. | :16:51. | |
Adrian Doherty really caught the eye. As a player coming he was | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
electric. His speed, off the mark was frightening, really. Many of the | :16:57. | :17:04. | |
youngsters here dream of signing for a top Premiership club. Adrian | :17:05. | :17:06. | |
Doherty managed to achieve that dream. When he came back, there was | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
a coach over the. Jimmy dream. When he came back, there was | :17:13. | :17:26. | |
would spend hours practising in the back garden in Strabane and soon | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
found himself on his way to Old Trafford for a trial. Afterward, the | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
phone rang. Alex Ferguson rang me at home. He said he'd like to talk to | :17:35. | :17:42. | |
us, because he was really keen to sign Adrian. He said the reason was | :17:43. | :17:53. | |
because he said he wanted to bring young lads to trials and they have a | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
check list and Adrian was the only person to tick all the boxes. So is | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
that normally, we bring people over and coach them, but with Adrian, | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
that normally, we bring people over felt we wouldn't have to do that. So | :18:10. | :18:15. | |
that was a compliment. In this rare footage, Adrian Doherty played for a | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
derris select side that inflicted their first defeat on Dublin side | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
home farm in over 60 matches. He scored both goals, impressing the | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
crowd who were there to see a friendly between Derry City and | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
Nottingham Forest. Signing for Manchester United was the ultimate | :18:31. | :18:34. | |
for a teenager who was also wanted by Arsenal and Nottingham Forest. It | :18:35. | :18:40. | |
also brings pressure to. Manchester United have always find the best, so | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
that sort of age-group, 15, 16, 17, he is amongst the very best in | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
Europe. That is the way it is communal cut it like that and | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
sometimes it would have been like that. United do not sign a bad | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
players. They find the best, because they want to wait and the best and | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
the players and then have to get better with the better players in | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
the football club themselves, so you put him on that level and that is | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
the career that essentially could have had. Adrian Doherty played for | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
the Northern Ireland schoolboys against Brazil at Windsor Park | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
alongside them on the sub bench than I was a man who will go one to | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
manage at the highest level. Adrian was a fantastic player. The young | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
player I had heard about and I had played with him in Derry and we went | :19:25. | :19:31. | |
on to play together in the international team. He was an | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
incredible football player, from a really good family, good people. I | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
don't think I would never forget him. We shared a room where is to | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
travel will be played in the Northern Ireland under 16 team. He | :19:44. | :19:51. | |
was intelligent and a wonderful young player. A whole career in | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
front of him. So, how good was Adrian Doherty? To get an | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
indication, it is best to talk to those who played with him. I've come | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
to the United training facility outside Manchester to talk to a | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
young lad who played on the other wing. A certain Ryan Giggs. I would | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
play on the left, he would play on the right and we were quite similar. | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
In regards to the fight we liked to be people. But what sticks out is | :20:17. | :20:22. | |
his bravery. He was not big, like me copy was quite skinny, small framed. | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
But he would just take the ball and it didn't matter if it was going | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
through the back or tackling or fouling, he would just go up and | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
demand the ball again. He was a brilliant talent and it was a | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
pleasure to play with him at that time. He was one of those players | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
were you just watch and do something in training and you just end up | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
smiling so yourself, because you can't believe what you've just seen. | :20:47. | :20:48. | |
Ryan Giggs speaking there. And tomorrow, we'll focus | :20:49. | :20:50. | |
on Adrian Doherty's time For the first practice | :20:51. | :20:52. | |
of the North West 200, the top road racers | :20:53. | :21:00. | |
thankfully this year had Stephen Watson is overlooking | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
the grid in the sunshine. Hello. After some very difficult | :21:04. | :21:20. | |
years because of the weather, at last, a perfect day for practice. | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
The sun has been shining all day and the high-temperature 's were matched | :21:26. | :21:28. | |
by some very high speeds around this nine mile circuit on the closed | :21:29. | :21:34. | |
public roads between this town and others. Some riders going faster | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
than 200 mph. It was an encouraging day for a local man who is trying to | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
become the most successful rider in the history of | :21:45. | :21:45. | |
It helps me to relax, I always say we come here relaxed and it goes | :21:46. | :22:11. | |
fast straightaway, gone very well. We are not 1 million miles away. He | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
was the most consistent performer, be the fastest man of the day was | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
another local favourite, Michael Dunlop. The four-time winner here | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
topped the two per bike standings and along the way, smashed the two | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
and a miles per hour barrier through the speed trap. 203, which you | :22:28. | :22:34. | |
always talk about doing two and a mile an hour, I've never done that, | :22:35. | :22:41. | |
so to do 203 is steady enough. Also going well and leading the way was | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
Martin Jessup. But one of the stories of the day came from | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
44-year-old Michael Rutter. The 13 time north-westward as stopped the | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
class to the delight of the crowds on the coast. Some were old enough | :22:56. | :23:07. | |
to understand. I'm joined by an 11 times Northwest 200 winner here, so | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
many storylines today. Firstly, can Alistair Seeley winner number 16 at | :23:13. | :23:17. | |
the North West this year? He has six chances this year, so we has a good | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
history, and has been a winner here before. Realistically, you should | :23:23. | :23:25. | |
win one out of those six. But it will be very competent it. Yes, | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
very, because we spoke to Michael Dunlop earlier today and it was his | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
dad's record he is trying to take, so to take is that's record of | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
Michael Dunlop will not be easy. Michael Dunlop today fell at -- went | :23:42. | :23:48. | |
at 203 mph to the speed trap, one of many riders going at a frighteningly | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
fast speed. What's it like to travel on a motorcycle at that speed? | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
Unbelievable! The best feeling ever, and better than that, full of | :23:59. | :24:02. | |
adrenaline. No wonder we were there when it came in after that fastest | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
lap and the team or so happy. You spoke to him after he was so happy, | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
what an achievement for them. He's had a tough last year with no | :24:12. | :24:14. | |
results that he could compare to what he normally has and he's got | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
this year started off and the whole first night of practice in the | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
Superbike race, that is an achievement. It has been a slickly | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
run the day, helped by some lovely sunshine and the north coast, it | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
makes a difference. I thought about it early and spoke with people, this | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
is the best Tuesday practice we have had at the Northwest 200 for a long | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
time. I think Mervyn probably didn't know what was wrong today, by my | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
counting we even stopped early. Usually it is getting dark and we | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
are scraping through a few more minutes to get through, but it was a | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
great day. There's been some outstanding performances today, | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
we've got Michael Rutter being the fastest man in the production race. | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
Thank you very much. Then Wilson had a crush today, broke his leg, but | :25:06. | :25:08. | |
his team tells me he is in good spirits. | :25:09. | :25:21. | |
Local football Crusaders were the big winners at last night's | :25:22. | :25:23. | |
Northern Ireland Football League awards | :25:24. | :25:25. | |
The event staged at Belfast City Hall saw Billy Joe Burns pick up | :25:26. | :25:28. | |
Crusaders to back-to-back league titles was named manager | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
Several of Northern Irelands 1986 World Cup | :25:34. | :25:35. | |
squad were guests of honour on a night when Mal Donaghy | :25:36. | :25:38. | |
We'll have the result of tonight's Europa League play-off | :25:39. | :25:42. | |
between Cliiftonville and Glentoran on our late bulletin. | :25:43. | :25:44. | |
Finally this evening, Ulster have been dealt | :25:45. | :25:50. | |
The weather forecast is next with Angie Phillips. | :25:51. | :25:57. | |
A lot of dry weather to come after bit of a hiccup tomorrow morning and | :25:58. | :26:04. | |
it was mixed earlier today, for some of sorts shy, particularly towards | :26:05. | :26:10. | |
it was mixed earlier today, for some the North, while others were stuck | :26:11. | :26:12. | |
it was mixed earlier today, for some in the cloud for a time earlier | :26:13. | :26:15. | |
today. That cloud produced some showers. That has been edging away | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
westwards and it has cheered up quite nicely, with temperatures up | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
to 22 degrees. It is now quite a nice evening with sunshine to end | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
the day. But overnight, the clouds will gather and we have another | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
batch of rain heading our way and the breeze continues to pick up. | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
They will be a cold night, 10-12d and without moisture in the air, it | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
will feel a bit buggy. Tomorrow, things will eventually improve and | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
it is not looking like a good start for some parts. The north coast may | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
not be too wet, but Central and southern areas most prone to the | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
rain, not very pleasant and of course, it means you may need your | :26:56. | :26:58. | |
umbrella first thing that the Balmoral show. But by the afternoon, | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
hopefully you will be putting on your sunglasses. That's a drier, | :27:03. | :27:06. | |
brighter weather starts to move in from the north and eased as we go | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
into the afternoon. Still fresh on the coast, but that breeze, 16-17d, | :27:11. | :27:17. | |
in Atlanta the south and west, some could be seen 20, maybe 21 degrees. | :27:18. | :27:22. | |
It stays dry food tomorrow night, still a bit breezy, that breeze is | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
as often as we go into Thursday, for the most bar dry, pleasant spells of | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
summer, highs of 18-20d towards southern areas in the South West, | :27:33. | :27:35. | |
but as we head towards the weekend, the drag in air from the north, | :27:36. | :27:39. | |
pressure tries to build from the West and those of northerly is bring | :27:40. | :27:42. | |
the temperatures down, but the high brings a lot of dry weather. | :27:43. | :27:45. | |
Goodbye. | :27:46. | :27:49. |
