BBC's News at Six, it's goodbye from me. On BBC One | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
Good evening. The headlines on BBC Newsline: | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
as bomb threats are made to schools across Northern Ireland. | :00:21. | :00:29. | |
Anybody that can do this to kids I think, in my eyes, | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
Sinn Fein changing of the guard as new faces are | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
Another man is murdered in an ongoing gangland feud | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
A 16-year-old boy's in court charged with the murder of Gerard | :00:41. | :00:46. | |
A warm welcome for Prince Charles at the birthplace of the Orange Order. | :00:47. | :01:02. | |
The Euro 2016 countdown continues, with Northern Ireland boosted by a | :01:03. | :01:11. | |
visit from Wright Conroy. -- mock from Wright Conroy. | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
And not as warm tomorrow but still a pretty good day. | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
A series of hoax bomb calls to schools has been described | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
by the police as very serious and worrying. | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
Some of the schools closed following the telephoned warnings, | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
which were similar to calls made in Britain yesterday. | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
The hoax threats were received at seven schools. | :01:31. | :01:38. | |
The caller threatened that there was a bomb on the premises and said we | :01:39. | :01:51. | |
should make a firm called to warn anybody about it. Hundreds of | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
children were sent home. But we understand that there | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
was something unusual about how They were automated | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
recorded messages. The investigation is now UK wide. We | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
will work with our colleagues in other UK forces because similar | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
calls were received yesterday in England, 27 calls in total. The | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
threats have caused widespread disruption to schools across | :02:22. | :02:24. | |
Northern Ireland. Here at Lingfield primary in Banga, 400 young people | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
had to be evacuated and nursery classes were also suspended. | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
Parents, who were unexpectedly called in to collect | :02:33. | :02:34. | |
Upon collecting my child, I was informed it was a bomb threat | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
As an open call recorded message saying it's a bomb, it's a bomb. | :02:39. | :02:46. | |
These kids are just trying to learn an education. | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
They are very, very young, of primary age, ranging | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
Anybody that can do this to kids I think, in my eyes, | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
Among community leaders, shock, but also some relief. | :02:58. | :03:05. | |
I think people will not get intimidated by this sick behaviour | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
but it is also important that anyone with any information gives that to | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
police to make sure whatever individuals behind this are caught | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
so this will not be in click it on another school. | :03:21. | :03:22. | |
The schools which closed today will reopen in the morning. | :03:23. | :03:24. | |
Sinn Fein has revealed who its new ministers will be, | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
but we still don't know which departments they will take. | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
From Stormont we are joined now by our Political | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
What can we learn from them make up of this team announced today? May be | :03:37. | :03:46. | |
a little surprised that Conor Murphy was not a lot. He has often talked | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
about as a potential replacement for Martin McGuinness but didn't feature | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
in this announcement. Megan Fearon at 24 is the youngest MLA and it is | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
likely she will be a junior minister of though we do not know which | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
department she will have. Chris Hazzard could be in charge of | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
education if Sinn Fein hold onto that portfolio, that is what he | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
specialised in giving the other Assembly. Mairtin O Muilleoir could | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
be somebody who would fancy and economic brief, he is a this month | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
in with a background in the media and often visited the US, and | :04:26. | :04:33. | |
Michelle O'Neill, former Agriculture Minister, supplies a degree of | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
continuity with the old team. We do not know quite what jobs they will | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
be doing but Martin McGuinness was strong in talking about their | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
qualities. They are all of my friends, they are all highly | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
intelligent, they are all hugely dedicated Irish republicans and they | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
are back but by all our other colleagues who are just as | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
intelligent and just as determined. We could have filled these divisions | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
243 times over. There were still a mystery over the new Justice | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
Ministry, how would the parties resolve that? That is still unclear. | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
They have to resort that they cannot appoint other ministers and that | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
would trigger an election, but Martin McGuinness says that will not | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
happen and wheels will see an executive form tomorrow. Given that | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
negotiations have broken down irretrievably with Alliance, it | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
seems the only options are an independent Unionist MLA, Claire | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
Sugden, or a DUP minister. Reporters seized on these comment from Martin | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
McGuinness with a hint that there could be a minister who was neither | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
from the key or Sinn Fein. The make up of the next administration will | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
in the main key between the DUP and Sinn Fein. There will be further | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
discussions about that today, except to say that at the beginning of this | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
process I outlined that I had five particular departments I was | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
interested in. I didn't name them, that would not be a good negotiating | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
strategy. How will tomorrow play out? We expect the Assembly to sit | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
at noon tomorrow and then we'll get answers as to who the Justice | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
Minister will be and what portfolios did DUP and Sinn Fein would use. | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
Martin McGuinness claimed that phrase, in the main, was not part of | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
a script, he denied it was a step but we still have to hear about the | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
Justice Minister and whether Claire Sugden will be in the mix. | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
A 16-year-old boy has appeared in court charged with the murder | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
of Gerard Quinn in Londonderry at the weekend. | :06:53. | :06:54. | |
The teenager's relatives said they offered their deepest | :06:55. | :06:56. | |
Here's our North-West reporter, Keiron Tourish. | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
The 16-year-old boy was accused of the murder of Gerard Quinn | :07:04. | :07:05. | |
and with attempted grievous bodily harm with intent on a second man, | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
a brother of the victim, at Milldale Crescent | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
The court heard police were called to an incident where a man | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
When they arrived he was lying on the ground and had | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
Members of the public were trying to revive him. | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
Gerard Quinn was taken to hospital, where he had surgery. | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
A postmortem examination revealed that Gerard Quinn died from a stab | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
It caused immediate bleeding which the victim | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
A detective confirmed that prior to the incident which gave | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
rise to the two charges, there was a fight involving | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
the deceased, his brother and another 16-year-old individual. | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
She confirmed the accused raised the issue of self defence | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
A defence barrister said the accused's family wanted | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
to convey their deepest condolences to the Quinn family over | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
He pointed out that the 16-year-old was cooperating fully | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
He also said he hoped there would be no repercussions. | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
District Judge Barney McElholm conveyed his condolences | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
to the bereaved family and said this was a tragedy for all. | :08:14. | :08:22. | |
It's believed a man shot dead in Dublin's north inner city earlier | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
today was the latest victim of the gangland feud | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
between the Hutch and Kinahan families and their associates. | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
Our Dublin correspondent Shane Harrison joins me now. | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
What more can you tell us about this gun attack? Gardai say the shooting | :08:40. | :08:49. | |
happened at 10am at Avondale house flats, not far from O'Connell | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
Street. The victim was named at Gareth Hutch. Gardai sealed off the | :08:54. | :09:01. | |
murder scene and have appealed for witnesses or anyone with information | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
to come forward. It's believed this is the seventh murder in the ongoing | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
gangland feud that has now claimed that lives of three members of the | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
Hutch family, and although we talk about it as a feud, with one | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
exception, all the murders have -- that are alleged to have been | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
carried out work carried out why associates of the Kinahan family. | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
What do you know about this victim? He was a cousin of Gary Hutch, who | :09:34. | :09:41. | |
was murdered as part of this feud, and a nephew of Gerry Hutch. He was | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
known to gardai, a father in his mid-30s, he knew his life was in | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
danger and yesterday was in touch with a city councillor about moving | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
flats because he was worried for the safety of his son. Little did he | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
know that within 24 sees himself with the dead. | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
The father of a woman sentenced to two and a half years | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
on an IS terrorism offence says she's been the victim | :10:09. | :10:10. | |
Lorna Moore from Mountjoy outside Omagh was found guilty of failing | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
to tell the authorities that her husband intended to join | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
Mother of three Lorna Moore, originally from County Tyrone, | :10:20. | :10:31. | |
She was jailed for two and a half years for failing to tell | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
the authorities her husband was about to join | :10:37. | :10:38. | |
The court heard her husband Sajid Islam was part | :10:39. | :10:49. | |
in and around Walsall in the West Midlands, | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
that had heeded the militants' call and tried to get to Syria in 2014. | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
Lorna grew up here in Mountjoy, not far from Omagh. | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
After school she went to university in Manchester, | :10:59. | :10:59. | |
where she met her future husband, and eventually converted to Islam. | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
Lorna's father claims his daughter is innocent. | :11:06. | :11:07. | |
It was a miscarriage of justice, it couldn't have been nothing else. | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
My daughter didn't know where the man was going. | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
Somebody being accused of something they didn't do and getting two | :11:20. | :11:21. | |
and a half years for it, that she did not do. | :11:22. | :11:29. | |
She didn't know that the man was going to go away. | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
Passing sentence, the judge described Moore as a very | :11:34. | :11:35. | |
strong character who had told lie after lie. | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
He described some of her evidence is nonsense. | :11:38. | :11:39. | |
The court was told she had been planning to take her three | :11:40. | :11:41. | |
children to Syria to meet up with her husband, | :11:42. | :11:43. | |
something her father back home also denies. | :11:44. | :11:52. | |
Three women say they have "no regrets" telling the police | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
that they had broken the law by obtaining abortion pills. | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
Diana King, Colette Devlin and Kitty O'Kane all belong | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
They went voluntarily into a police station in Londonderry last night, | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
were questioned and later released pending a report | :12:06. | :12:07. | |
Three women who've deliberately put themselves at risk of criminal | :12:08. | :12:17. | |
prosecution say they did so with their eyes wide open. | :12:18. | :12:26. | |
The three women handed themselves in by appointment there at Strand Road | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
police station last night. They gave prepared statement to the police and | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
were questioned separately. A file has now been passed to the Public | :12:38. | :12:39. | |
Prosecution Service. What they claim they've done | :12:40. | :12:40. | |
is illegal in Northern Ireland - I was declaring to the PSNI that I | :12:41. | :12:52. | |
have had delivered, on numerous occasions, packets to my home on | :12:53. | :12:58. | |
behalf of other people which contain abortion drugs from abroad. Did you | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
hand them to other people? Yes. They've taken the step | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
after the recent conviction of a woman who bought such drugs | :13:08. | :13:09. | |
to induce a miscarriage. We first were wanting to show | :13:10. | :13:17. | |
solidarity with the woman who have been taken to court and we are so | :13:18. | :13:26. | |
angry, we are letting the police know there is a lot of woman like us | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
out here, a lot of women supporting women who have pregnancies that they | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
feel are crises. It's everybody's legal duty to obey a good law but we | :13:37. | :13:43. | |
also believe that it's everybody's moral duty to challenge a bad law. | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
The women weren't arrested but went to police officers, | :13:48. | :13:49. | |
who knew they were coming, and what they would say. | :13:50. | :13:51. | |
We have seen before with various women declaring that they have | :13:52. | :13:59. | |
broken the law and almost commanding to be prosecuted, this is part of a | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
strategy to change the door by breaking the law. | :14:06. | :14:06. | |
The next move rests with the Public Prosecution Service. | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
The GAA says it hopes to start building a new Casement Park stadium | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
in West Belfast next year, and start playing | :14:15. | :14:16. | |
A new planning application will be submitted soon. | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
But as BBC Newsline's Mark Simpson reports, the association insists it | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
first wants to hear the views of local residents. | :14:27. | :14:33. | |
The GAA had started gathering feedback about what size and shape | :14:34. | :14:44. | |
the new Casement Park should be. The last planning application was | :14:45. | :14:46. | |
overturned, and this time they hope the outcome will be different. The | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
submission of the application will be in the third quarter of this | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
year, we hope to start construction next year and the intent is to have | :14:56. | 2:47:08 | |
the stadium complete by late 2019. Really? We hope so. Critics said you | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
were too arrogant last time. I wouldn't accept the charge of being | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
arrogant but the GAA approached us in good faith the first time around, | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
lessons have been learned and we want to be good neighbours. We were | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
in the past good neighbours and I hope in the upcoming process and | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
when it is complete we can be good neighbours in the future. This was | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
the original design for the new stadium. A new one is being worked | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
on. The G8 said it doesn't have to have 38 thousand seats and they | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
won't demolishing nearby houses to build it. I want to say the G8 has | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
no intention and never had of knocking people's houses down, are | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
to sink he pulls homes. The GAA has no authority in relation to | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
compulsory purchase orders, so we will try to build a stadium with the | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
land available and can hope the leak do that. It is ambitious to have | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
this old stadium rebuilt and fully functioning in the next four years, | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
but the G8 site they are now confident the plan will work -- the | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
GAA say they are now confident. And tonight's BBC Spotlight | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
programme investigates the delay That's here on BBC One at 10:45pm | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
after our late news. The Prince of Wales was drawn by the | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Duchess of Cornwall today as he visited County Down and Armagh. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
One of the venues was an Orange Order museum at | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
The Prince was welcome to the cradle of the Orange Order by to lambast | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
runners and cheering children. He shook hands with Orange officials | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
and deaths as the band laid God Save The Prince Of Wales. Here it has | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
another name among marching bands, Derry's Walls. At Portaferry that | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Prince took part in a service marketing the installation of a | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
former church as an arts centre. He was joined by his wife at a sampling | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
of local produce in Portadown. It was lovely to meet them, my auntie | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
said we could bring her down and meet royalty. Then it was onto | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Ulster carpet, who are currently weaving a carpet Forum Buckingham | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Palace. I congratulate you on what you have achieved and I am glad to | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
discover that carpet destined for Buckingham Palace looks like it will | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
arrive on time so I'd hope the company goes from strength to | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
strength. It is a wonderful tribute to the skills and dedication of so | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
many of you there in this hour of Northern Ireland. But it was his | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
visit to the Orange Museum in Loch of that would grab the headlines. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
The order sees it as the royal seal of approval for the organisation -- | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
in Loughgall. This is the icing on the cake, the royal seal of approval | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
today. There was a private visit to a garden of remembrance to the 68th | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Orangemen who were murdered during the Troubles. The survivor of an | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
attack spoke of what it meant to him. The memory and the hurt are | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
still there, those will never go away. As he left locked all, a | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
schoolboy handed him a birthday card for his mother the Queen. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
The new Northern Ireland hospice in Belfast will open its doors | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
And in a first for Britain and Ireland, it will offer a special | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Our health correspondent Marie-Louise Connolly | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
They've managed to merge the old with the new and come up | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
It's been a labour of love for all concerned, and tomorrow | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
the doors of the new hospice just off the Antrim Road | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
While it's eager, brighter and will offer a better range of services, | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
the ethos behind hospice care will remain the same. According to staff, | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
while they are thrilled with this new building, it's now time to get | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
on with the job of looking after terminally ill men and women. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
It's all hands on deck to ensure the facilities are ready, | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
including a new dedicated area for dementia care. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Damian O'Neill is only 47, with a rare genetic | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
From tomorrow he'll become a day patient. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
I have to say, the staff are fantastic. They make it, they really | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
do. It's the first dementia-friendly | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
hospice service, not only This programme is about ensuring we | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
opened the access to hospice care to patients with dementia to make sure | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
we manage symptoms such as pain, give them access to rehabilitate | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
and, whether it's something for their enjoyment like music therapy | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
or creative therapy. While staff are getting familiar | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
with their new surroundings, it's reassuring that | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
old qualities will remain. That's what we try and bring to the | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
hospice, warmth, that's what we have brought from the old Olding Izzard | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
warmth and our care and love and compassion. I think that's nearly as | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
important as the drugs and care we go. -- we give. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Now the hard work begins of encouraging the government | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
to help them meet the ?1.6 million in building costs. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
The Northern Ireland football squad have had a special visitor. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
The Northern Ireland football team are in County Kildare this week | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
preparing for Friday's night's friendly against Belarus ahead | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
And they've had a special visitor to the camp. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Northern Ireland's football stars were left a little starstruck as | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Rory McIlroy even a golfing masterclass. They will do something | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
that no other Northern Irishman have done, play in the Euros, and to | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
spend a couple of hours and interact with them is a pleasure for me, | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
following the team the whole way through, fixation and being able to | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
see them before they go to France, it's a cool experience. Some speed! | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
No stage fright for some players who wanted to show off their golfing | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
progress. In front of the world's best -- pro-West. Even the manager | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
gave it a go. You see how little he's been perfect by Wayne and | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
success that he's had, but it was nice of him to tell the players what | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
he felt it meant to the people of Northern Ireland that Northern | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Ireland were going to the finals, and when someone like Roy says that | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
you it has a real impact, and I think it is a day the players will | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
always remember -- how little he has been affected by fame. Rory McIlroy | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
will play in the US Open but says he's flying straight to Paris for | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Northern Ireland's final group game against Germany, and the squad will | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
hope his success can rub off on them and he can inspire them to some big | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
results this summer. Not far from Northern Ireland's base | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
in Kildare, the Republic of Ireland held an open training session | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
at the Aviva Stadium. Around 5000 young fans turned out | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
to watch Martin O'Neill's men go A handful of theirs have yet to join | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
up with the Republic of Ireland squad but they are involved in the | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
contest in England this week, while James McCarthy sat out today's | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
sessions as a precaution, as he has a slight groin strain. This was a | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
chance for fans to interact with players but after today the focus | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
will be on two crucial friendlies in the next seven days. A manager has | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
to chop it down and it will be his decision at the end of the day and | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
what we have to do is train every day and make sure we catch the eye. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Martin O'Neill is likely to wait until the last minute to name his | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
final squad for the Euro Championships, that is set to be | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
announced following the friendly against Ella arose in the few weeks, | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
but be ordered that a visit from the Netherlands, who will be given some | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
much needed time after injuries, and another highly rated player could be | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
given a chance to force their way onto the team. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Boxer Katie Taylor today clinched her place in the Ireland | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
team heading to this summer's Olympic Games in Rio. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
The gold medallist in the lightweight division in London | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
four years ago, Taylor will now head to Brazil to defend her title. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
She confirmed her qualification for the Games with a unanimous | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
points victory over Victoria Torres of Mexico, to reach the semi-finals | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
And she'll head to Brazil as the big favourite for gold. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
Gold again. Cecilia Daly has a gold winning weather forecast. First lace | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
for the weather, probably the best day of the week but it will pick up | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
again at the weekend. Today a number of places in the best had | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
temperatures up to 19 degrees. It was cooler towards the north coast | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
due to mist and fog that lingered for a while but it has all gone now | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
a nice sunny evening, dry and clear tonight so it will get chilly again | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
in parts of the West and there could be fog first thing tomorrow. Farmers | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
enjoying the dry sunny weather today and tomorrow will be dry, still some | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
sunshine but not as much as today and probably the best of it through | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
the morning and the best through the day will be in the West. Dry to | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
begin with, still a little fog lingering around Lough Neagh, | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
temperatures will come up quickly in the morning sunshine so in two | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
double Euros for most places by the morning, and the morning will | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
probably have the best sunshine. In the West still some sunshine in the | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
afternoon, temperatures up to 16 degrees down on today and it will be | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
cloudy in the East and the end of the day and clearer, but it's dry. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
It will stay dry tomorrow night, some spots of rain by the morning, | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
then Thursday a disappointment, cool and cloudy with patches of light | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
rain on and off. That weather front will move away on Friday and then | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
high pressure will hold over the weekend and things start to warm up | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
with more sunshine. Still quite cloudy on Friday at getting sunnier | 2:47:09 | 2:47:08 | |
through the weekend. Not too bad at all. | 2:47:09 | 2:47:09 |
