:00:27. > :00:31.Good evening. This is BBC Newsline. The headlines this evening: puts

:00:31. > :00:41.Catholic teenagers attacked by a loyalist gang, while working on a

:00:41. > :00:42.

:00:42. > :00:46.Belfast for location. Sean Quinn defiant after his

:00:46. > :00:50.insolvency claim that overturned. never had to mislead anyone in my

:00:50. > :00:57.life. And never misled anyone in 60 years.

:00:57. > :01:04.Harrowing evidence from the police officer who was with Stephen --

:01:04. > :01:07.Stephen Carroll. We hear from the family of the top motorcycle road

:01:07. > :01:10.racer, Martin Finnegan. 3.5 years after his death, the findings of

:01:10. > :01:13.the inquest into his fatal crash are revealed.

:01:13. > :01:23.And we can expect a drop in temperatures later this week. I

:01:23. > :01:25.

:01:25. > :01:28.will have the weather later in the Catholic teenagers have been

:01:28. > :01:32.reliving the terror of a sectarian beating in south Belfast. They were

:01:32. > :01:36.attacked by a gang while working as extras on a film location in the

:01:36. > :01:39.Village area on Friday afternoon. One of the teenagers says he was

:01:39. > :01:48.beaten, then stuffed into a rubbish bin. He and his friends have been

:01:48. > :01:53.telling us how they feared for their lives.

:01:53. > :01:57.This is the face of James, whose one day as a film extra ended in a

:01:57. > :02:01.century in beating. The 18-year-old Catholic and his friends had been

:02:01. > :02:05.hired by a production company to work in the loyalist Village area

:02:06. > :02:12.of south Belfast. But several hours into filming, the mood turned

:02:13. > :02:16.hostile, as a crowd of locals shouted sectarian abuse the stop

:02:16. > :02:25.they were shouting, you're not getting out with your lives.

:02:25. > :02:29.You're getting stabbed to. I did not think I would get out.

:02:29. > :02:33.James became separated from the other extras, as the film crew

:02:33. > :02:41.repaired -- prepared to leave the area. The other extras were

:02:41. > :02:45.attacked in a car, as it was driven away. James Turley was chased and

:02:45. > :02:50.set upon. He did not want to face the cameras today. He told me how

:02:50. > :02:55.he was assaulted, but inside of wheelie bin, before he escaped by

:02:55. > :03:05.flagging down a passing motorist. There is no doubt in my mind that I

:03:05. > :03:06.

:03:06. > :03:09.was really lucky to get out. I just can't believe it. Can you

:03:09. > :03:13.understand why people would be driven to do something like this?

:03:13. > :03:18.No, I do not know why anyone would do this to anyone.

:03:18. > :03:22.The film-makers had moved location today, to a city-centre bar. They

:03:22. > :03:26.said they had spoken to the village community before the shoot, and had

:03:26. > :03:30.not expected trouble. Health and safety is of paramount

:03:30. > :03:35.importance, so we did everything in advance to make sure. It is very

:03:35. > :03:39.difficult if you get a bad element turning up on set, deciding to

:03:39. > :03:43.cause trouble. It was an unfortunate incident, and it was

:03:43. > :03:49.isolated, Belfast is still a fantastic period to come and make

:03:49. > :03:55.films. A young lad was left for dead in a wheelie bin. That is a

:03:55. > :04:00.blight on the city. What we need to do is continue the work to ensure

:04:00. > :04:04.that does not happen again. community are resilient enough to

:04:04. > :04:13.pick themselves up from this. This is not reflective of our community,

:04:13. > :04:19.and these films do not represent us. We want to take lives for a word in

:04:19. > :04:27.this community. In a statement, the film crew said it was not the

:04:27. > :04:31.typical positive story of the film until -- film and television

:04:31. > :04:32.industry. We asked the police for an

:04:32. > :04:35.interview about this, but no-one was available.

:04:35. > :04:38.The High Court has ruled that the Fermanagh businessman Sean Quinn

:04:38. > :04:41.was not entitled to declare himself bankrupt in Northern Ireland.

:04:41. > :04:44.The southern bank to which Mr Quinn is hugely in debt has already begun

:04:44. > :04:47.proceedings to have him made bankrupt in the Republic's courts.

:04:47. > :04:55.Penalties there are much tougher. In a rare interview, the former

:04:55. > :04:59.billionaire has described the process as a sham.

:04:59. > :05:03.Sean Quinn has lost his billion- pound business empire. Today he was

:05:04. > :05:09.on the losing side again, this time in a court case over his bankruptcy.

:05:09. > :05:14.He declared himself insolvent here in November, over a huge debt owed

:05:14. > :05:19.to the former Anglo Irish Bank. But the Dublin-based bank challenged

:05:19. > :05:23.the move. It argued that Mr Quinn was not based in Northern Ireland,

:05:23. > :05:27.and have no right to go bankrupt here. It wants to us -- pursue him

:05:28. > :05:37.for bankruptcy. He argued he had workedfrom an office in this

:05:38. > :05:40.

:05:40. > :05:44.industrial estate in County He said on the balance of

:05:44. > :05:49.probabilities, they had been prepared to later than Mr Quinn had

:05:49. > :05:55.declared, and allowed him to bolster his case. He denied he set

:05:55. > :06:05.out to mislead the court. I have never misled anyone. I

:06:05. > :06:08.

:06:08. > :06:16.always paid my way, everything I promised I always did. There was

:06:16. > :06:20.never any question,... Mr Justice found in favour of the bank, and

:06:21. > :06:23.said Sean Quinn was based in Kent are given, and annulled the

:06:23. > :06:29.Northern Ireland bankruptcy. What does this mean for the former

:06:29. > :06:31.billionaire, Sean Quinn? It is likely he will now be bankrupted in

:06:32. > :06:35.the republic, which will prevent him starting a new business for

:06:35. > :06:40.five years. In Northern Ireland he would only have had to wait for one

:06:40. > :06:48.year. He will also be pursued for the money he owes to the Anglo

:06:48. > :06:57.Irish Bank. How will they get it back? I have grand kids now, and I

:06:57. > :07:01.have reminded myself that what Anglo Irish Bank has done for the

:07:01. > :07:06.Quinn Group is like someone taking a sledgehammer to a child's toy.

:07:06. > :07:13.Absolutely destroyed it. Today is not the last time they will face

:07:13. > :07:17.each other in the courtroom. The bank has already started other

:07:17. > :07:20.cases against him, here and in Russia.

:07:20. > :07:23.The trial of the two men accused of murdering Constable Stephen Carroll

:07:23. > :07:26.has heard evidence from police officers who were at the scene of

:07:26. > :07:33.the shooting in March 2009. One of them said when he realised

:07:33. > :07:36.his colleague was dead he did not know what to do.

:07:36. > :07:42.Constable Stephen Carroll was shot dead, when he and colleagues were

:07:42. > :07:47.responding to an emergency call about vandalism here in Craigavon.

:07:47. > :07:51.Two police cars attended that night, one was driven by Constable Stephen

:07:51. > :07:54.Carroll, and the other was sent from Portadown. Today the police

:07:54. > :08:00.officer who was the passenger of that car gave evidence, and was

:08:00. > :08:04.clearly distressed. He said he heard the shots and got back into

:08:04. > :08:12.his car, and just sat and looked down the cul-de-sac towards the

:08:12. > :08:16.other vehicle. He said he store Stephen Carroll's passengers at

:08:16. > :08:21.crouched at the side of the vehicle, and one was pointing a gun. He said

:08:21. > :08:26.he tried to move towards them, but the officer who had begun in that

:08:26. > :08:30.them. He said they obviously forgot we were there, but we spoke to them.

:08:30. > :08:38.We said, get into the can and we will get out of you. He said, my

:08:38. > :08:44.driver is dead. He said a bad moment, I was shocked, disbelief. I

:08:44. > :08:49.did not truly know what to do. Lots of ideas go through your head. Do

:08:49. > :08:54.you get out, do you stay in? He said, in the end I did not do an

:08:54. > :08:59.awful lot. The driver said she heard the cracks of the gunshot,

:08:59. > :09:05.and told her colleague to get in. She said she heard shouting coming

:09:05. > :09:11.from Constable Carole's car, my driver is dead. -- Constable

:09:11. > :09:17.Stephen Carroll. Others described how they tried to help paramedics.

:09:17. > :09:22.Stephen, they said, stay with us. His widow Kate, seen here with a

:09:22. > :09:32.white handbag, cried in court, as she heard details about her

:09:32. > :09:32.

:09:32. > :09:38.husband's fatal industries -- injuries. The two men deny the

:09:38. > :09:41.charges. Still to come: Should he stay or

:09:41. > :09:46.should he go? Talks on the future of the justice ministry. We have

:09:46. > :09:51.the latest. Beragh residents plead for urgent

:09:51. > :09:55.help before the floods come again. These are obviously the wrong

:09:55. > :09:59.pictures. Also there will be an inquest into the motorcyclist's

:09:59. > :10:03.death. Now the latest in the quest by Loreto Girls' Grammar in Omagh

:10:03. > :10:07.to get a new school. It has been lobbying for 20 years

:10:07. > :10:08.for new premises and hopes were raised by a succession of education

:10:08. > :10:11.ministers who said it was high priority.

:10:11. > :10:14.Two years ago, after Loreto refused to be rebuilt on the former

:10:14. > :10:17.Lisanelly army base in the town, the Department of Education said

:10:17. > :10:20.the school's plan did not comply with its rules.

:10:20. > :10:27.As Maggie Tagart reports, an Appeal Court ruling has brought good and

:10:27. > :10:31.bad news for the school. A new building for the grammar

:10:31. > :10:36.school was said to be urgent, and money to replace it seemed assured.

:10:36. > :10:41.But then the idea of a multi- school campus here, won the support

:10:41. > :10:44.of the Sinn Fein Education Minister. The school rejected the idea, and

:10:44. > :10:49.claimed the Department of Education had broken promises to rebuild. A

:10:49. > :10:56.review last year concluded it was justified in expecting the new

:10:56. > :11:00.school. They said the grammar school had a legitimate expectation,

:11:00. > :11:10.which was described as the icing on the cake as the board of governors.

:11:10. > :11:14.

:11:14. > :11:18.The school won backing on his other complaint, that it should not have

:11:18. > :11:25.been removed from a list of schools that take all the boxes for

:11:25. > :11:29.rebuilding. We're feeling vindicated, and we have got our

:11:29. > :11:33.judgment and costs completely covered. The judge said the

:11:33. > :11:36.Department of Education was wrong to have rejected the plans as non-

:11:36. > :11:40.compliant, which puts the school back on the list for rebuilding,

:11:40. > :11:45.but there were only to be a lot of talking between the school and the

:11:45. > :11:53.Department and tell that happens. We desperately need a new school,

:11:53. > :12:00.and that is our responsibility, to make sure we get proper facilities

:12:01. > :12:04.for the children. What are the chances in this financial climate?

:12:04. > :12:08.The school needs to be built, the money will have to beef found.

:12:08. > :12:13.Minister for Education says he is keen to move forward and the best

:12:13. > :12:16.interest of the young people in the area.

:12:16. > :12:18.The future of the Department of Employment and Learning has been

:12:18. > :12:21.raised at multi-party talks at Stormont Castle. Although the

:12:21. > :12:24.discussions have been called to deal with the future of the

:12:24. > :12:34.Department of Justice, cuts to the number of departments are also on

:12:34. > :12:36.

:12:36. > :12:46.the agenda. Mark Devenport joins me now from Stormont Castle, where the

:12:46. > :12:58.

:12:58. > :13:04.That is the department that deals with universities. It is involved

:13:04. > :13:11.because of the Alliance got enough votes, enough seeds to take that

:13:11. > :13:14.department back in their own right. That has led to accusations of

:13:14. > :13:19.unfairness and one of the ways in which the bigger parties are

:13:19. > :13:23.considering dealing with this is potentially doing away with that

:13:23. > :13:30.department altogether, splitting up its other functions to other

:13:31. > :13:35.departments, maybe to the Sinn Fein to control the education, and DUP

:13:35. > :13:37.would go to another department, and maybe that would resolve it.

:13:37. > :13:42.How is the Alliance Party responding?

:13:42. > :13:45.They acknowledge there is a problem injustice that has to be resolved

:13:45. > :13:49.and that streamlining might be a good thing, but they say they

:13:49. > :13:53.should not be a short-term fix like this. You shouldn't fix these two

:13:53. > :14:00.problems up like this because it is convenient, so they are resisting

:14:00. > :14:05.it, but the bigger parties are considering it. Two options involve

:14:05. > :14:10.doing away with that Department of Employment.

:14:10. > :14:12.Going by actor Justus, David Ford was given the job because no one

:14:12. > :14:20.could be trusted. Nothing is changing there.

:14:20. > :14:27.He would probably be safe, depending on the system they go for.

:14:27. > :14:33.That is because when there was those talks on the powers, Sinn

:14:33. > :14:43.Fein didn't want of the DUP justice minister to have take control, so

:14:43. > :14:48.

:14:48. > :14:51.that is why he is in that position. The independent Bishop Pat Buckley

:14:51. > :14:54.has been in court in connection with alleged sham marriages. The

:14:54. > :14:57.59-year-old, on the right of the picture, sat in the public gallery

:14:57. > :14:59.during a short hearing at Belfast Magistrates Court. He's accused of

:14:59. > :15:02.conspiracy to defraud the Home Secretary by facilitating foreign

:15:02. > :15:09.nationals to gain entry to the UK. There are 15 other defendants in

:15:09. > :15:13.the case. Pat Buckley says he's done nothing wrong. I have never

:15:13. > :15:20.knowingly celebrated what is commonly called a sham marriage.

:15:20. > :15:25.The decision by the PSNI and Public Prosecution Service to prosecute me

:15:25. > :15:30.is groundless. And is highly suspect. I think it represents an

:15:30. > :15:38.attempt by the establishment to silence a priest who has been

:15:38. > :15:41.working with the modernised for 36 years. -- with the marginalised.

:15:41. > :15:43.The biggest gas users in Northern Ireland could save tens of

:15:43. > :15:46.thousands of pounds in their annual bills through new price controls

:15:46. > :15:48.which were announced today by the Utility Regulator. Our business and

:15:48. > :15:52.economics editor Jim Fitzpatrick has the details.

:15:52. > :15:57.Tens of thousands of pounds of savings. Thankfully, we don't have

:15:57. > :16:01.those sorts of bills, but who does? Big industry, and they have big gas

:16:01. > :16:08.bills and energy prices in general are higher than the rest of the UK.

:16:08. > :16:12.They are regulating Phoenix Natural Gas by deciding how moderate can

:16:12. > :16:16.spend and invest and taking millions out of the company. For us

:16:16. > :16:22.domestic consumers what this could mean is �10 a year saved in gas

:16:22. > :16:26.bills. So not a massive amount for the domestic user but for the big

:16:26. > :16:30.industry, they reckon that 50 companies will be able to save

:16:30. > :16:36.�10,000 a year under these new measures. When will they see that?

:16:36. > :16:42.Not until 2013 because these will be finally agreed in the following

:16:42. > :16:46.months. Those will then kick in finally at that stage. The parent

:16:46. > :16:51.company of Phoenix Natural Gas is not happy because these measures

:16:51. > :16:55.could take 17% off the value of that company so they are not happy,

:16:55. > :16:58.and they could appeal to the Competition Commission for.

:16:58. > :17:05.would they put up an argument against the reductions? They are

:17:05. > :17:10.making healthy profits. They do have a good rate of return, however

:17:10. > :17:16.what they will say is that the disincentive for other companies to

:17:16. > :17:20.invest, we talked about the born market, but one of the rating

:17:20. > :17:25.agencies has signalled it may have to downgrade Phoenix Natural Gas

:17:25. > :17:31.because of these regulations, which could push the cost of debt up and

:17:32. > :17:35.could lead to higher gas prices. Ironic if.

:17:35. > :17:38.-- ironically. "Make our homes safe." That was the

:17:38. > :17:41.demand from residents in the flood- prone village of Beragh to Rivers

:17:41. > :17:44.Agency staff at a meeting last night. Work on a flood prevention

:17:44. > :17:47.scheme in the Tyrone village is due to begin next year, but local

:17:47. > :17:49.people say that's too late. Our district journalist Louise Cullen

:17:49. > :17:54.was there. Arriving for the meeting last night,

:17:54. > :17:58.people in Beragh quietly about what they wanted. We have been going on

:17:58. > :18:02.these promises for such a long time and no work has been started on the

:18:02. > :18:05.ground so we want people to make their commitments, stick to them

:18:05. > :18:12.and see work starting. They were told about the work going on

:18:12. > :18:17.already. Early-warning device has been tested and clearing the river.

:18:17. > :18:20.An old railway bridge is to be removed and there are plans to

:18:20. > :18:26.widen the bridge over the river but it won't happen quickly. Week are

:18:26. > :18:30.in the early stages of developing the over all option appraisal for

:18:30. > :18:34.the alleviation scheme. That is going to take time to be developed

:18:34. > :18:39.and we are exploring a lot of different ways of solving the

:18:39. > :18:45.problems it. That wasn't good enough for some. It is just like

:18:45. > :18:48.the last time. It is a step forward to where we want to get to. With

:18:49. > :18:53.work on the alleviation scheme expected to get under way next year,

:18:53. > :18:57.tonight's meeting was about answering some of the questions

:18:57. > :19:03.what form the scheme will take and what work needs to be done. But

:19:03. > :19:08.residents will not be certain and they will be watching the river

:19:08. > :19:12.bank anxiously every time it rains. The inquest into the death of one

:19:12. > :19:15.of Ireland's top motorcycle road racers concluded today in Belfast.

:19:15. > :19:18.With more on that, here's Stephen Watson.

:19:18. > :19:23.Martin Finnegan lost his life after a high-speed crash at the Tandragee

:19:23. > :19:26.100 road race in May 2008. Today, the inquest into his death found

:19:26. > :19:31.that in all probability a loose bolt caused the brakes on his

:19:31. > :19:34.machine to fail. His family, who spoke to me after the findings were

:19:34. > :19:43.revealed, said they were satisfied and that it was good day in

:19:43. > :19:50.extremely bad circumstances. As a motorcycle road racer, Martin

:19:50. > :19:54.Finnegan knew the higher risks involved in the sport. But when he

:19:54. > :19:58.lost his life after a crash at around 150 miles per hour, there

:19:58. > :20:03.was simply -- there was simply nothing he could have done. Brake

:20:03. > :20:07.failure was the reason given for his fatal accident. A verdict

:20:07. > :20:12.welcomed by his family. Why do you think it took so long to get the

:20:12. > :20:16.outcome? I am not going to put the blame on anyone but I think

:20:16. > :20:22.investigations should start immediately when a rider has an

:20:22. > :20:27.accident and, from there, it should be taken step-by-step, not in bits

:20:27. > :20:31.and pieces, and no reports written. You shouldn't have to as a family,

:20:32. > :20:38.as a young widow with children, go and find your own forensic experts

:20:38. > :20:41.to investigate. That should be done for you. It is their job to do it.

:20:41. > :20:46.Why do we have to get the truth ourselves? That is a shame, but we

:20:47. > :20:52.did get it, we are delighted, and the three-and-a-half-year us have

:20:52. > :20:55.been extremely difficult but today was worth it all. The case has cost

:20:55. > :20:58.the family thousands of pounds but today they believe the outcome

:20:58. > :21:00.clears Martin Finnegan of any rider error.

:21:00. > :21:03.Cliftonville returned to winnings way last night against Dungannon

:21:03. > :21:07.Swifts and this man had plenty to smile about. Barry Johnston scored

:21:07. > :21:16.a wonder-goal to give Cliftonville a much needed 2-1 win. Thomas

:21:16. > :21:19.Niblock reports. You are unlikely to see a more

:21:19. > :21:22.exciting finish to a football match in quite a while.

:21:23. > :21:27.After only one win in the last four games, Cliftonville knew their

:21:27. > :21:37.title ambitions depended upon three points against Dungannon Swifts,

:21:37. > :21:37.

:21:37. > :21:42.and three points they grabbed. To be fair, our new signing has

:21:42. > :21:49.just come on. He just let it off, he was lucky enough to touch it and

:21:49. > :21:59.hit it. Thankfully, it went in. Cliftonville took the lead in the

:21:59. > :22:02.

:22:03. > :22:08.first half. Dungannon Swifts made it 2-1. Then Cliftonville were

:22:08. > :22:13.reduced to 10 men. A second yellow card was given. Two minutes later,

:22:13. > :22:23.they were down to nine. Another player red-carded for this

:22:23. > :22:31.challenge. The home side held on in a frantic few minutes... Just about.

:22:31. > :22:35.It is complete chaos! Are Cliftonville good enough to win the

:22:35. > :22:44.league this season? At the minute, we need to improve

:22:44. > :22:50.vastly, I would say. We have had three clean sheets the whole season.

:22:50. > :22:54.That is not League title-winning form. We need to title -- tighten

:22:54. > :23:02.up defensively. We need to score goals. If we are conceding goals,

:23:02. > :23:09.we are not going to win the leak. Clean sheets win the league.

:23:09. > :23:15.Despite there -- despite a no clean sheet last night, there was delight,

:23:15. > :23:18.after their first win of 2000 well. A dramatic finish indeed!

:23:18. > :23:21.Ulster coach Brian McLaughlin has a near full-strength squad to choose

:23:21. > :23:23.from ahead of Friday's crucial Heineken Cup tie against Leicester

:23:23. > :23:27.at Ravenhill. Pedrie Wannenburg and Ian Humphreys are both carrying

:23:27. > :23:30.injuries but have been named in the squad for the Pool 4 clash.

:23:30. > :23:38.McLaughlin is now looking for his side to maintain the high standard

:23:38. > :23:43.set by their convincing recent wins against Munster and Edinburgh.

:23:43. > :23:46.I think that is what we have been trying to do. If you look at the

:23:46. > :23:50.performance against Munster and the performance last week, it is

:23:50. > :23:54.crucial that we are consistent. That we keep the same level of

:23:54. > :24:01.performance up. We do have to tinker with things, make things

:24:01. > :24:05.better, but when you need to be at your best, you have got if brokers.

:24:05. > :24:07.We will have more build up to the game later on this week.

:24:08. > :24:10.Londonderry's Olympic swimming hopeful Ryan Harrison has been

:24:10. > :24:13.suspended from his US college team. The reason being given by the

:24:13. > :24:16.University of Tennessee is a "violation of team policy".

:24:16. > :24:19.Harrison, in the third year of a swimming scholarship in the States,

:24:19. > :24:23.has issued a statement saying the suspension has nothing to do with

:24:23. > :24:32.illegal substances. And Swim Ireland have said his hopes of

:24:32. > :24:39.qualifying for the Olympics have not been affected. Less than 200

:24:39. > :24:45.days to go until the Olympics. And the torch will be coming soon.

:24:45. > :24:55.I applied for tickets, I am one of the millions that did not get any.

:24:55. > :24:57.

:24:57. > :25:03.I will moderate on the BBC! -- I The weather.

:25:03. > :25:07.To remind you the average for this time of year is 6 or 7 and 12 is

:25:07. > :25:12.more typical for the middle of April. We are expecting a fall in

:25:12. > :25:18.the temperature for the end of the week but not tonight. There is rain

:25:18. > :25:22.and drizzle, breaking out more widely tonight. It is fairly damp

:25:22. > :25:28.for some time tonight. A lot of that peters out before the end of

:25:28. > :25:34.the night but the cloud sticks. The temperatures will stay up so 7 or 8

:25:34. > :25:38.is the lowest, which is more of a daytime temperature. That mild

:25:38. > :25:42.weather lingers until tomorrow and the cloud hangs around, too. It

:25:42. > :25:48.will not be completely solid and there will be some breaks in the

:25:48. > :25:53.cloud. So perhaps a flicker of sunshine. Like today, there will be

:25:53. > :26:02.thicker patches of cloud, bringing showers, not amounting to much but

:26:02. > :26:07.can be quite wet. For most places, more dry than wet weather.

:26:07. > :26:13.Temperatures at around 10 or 11. The winds coming in from the South

:26:14. > :26:18.West, making it mild, and the wind will not be strong. As we head into

:26:18. > :26:23.tomorrow evening and night, there will be further rain and drizzle

:26:23. > :26:26.and a more organised area of rain will head South. This area of rain

:26:26. > :26:30.separates much cooler air which will be moving in from the North.

:26:30. > :26:35.The winds become quite strong tomorrow night and on Thursday we

:26:35. > :26:41.will still have some of that wet and windy weather. This is how the

:26:41. > :26:45.temperatures are expected to pan out. We are sitting up at 11 at the

:26:45. > :26:49.moment but it will dive between Thursday night and Friday morning.

:26:49. > :26:53.It will be cooler and more seasonal for the rest of the week. So mild

:26:53. > :26:58.initially on Thursday, but temperatures will fall during the

:26:58. > :27:04.day to around seven and the wind will be from the North West. There

:27:04. > :27:09.will be sunshine, but the clear sky is overnight may mean frost on

:27:09. > :27:13.Friday. It stays cool, largely dry, but cloudy, too.

:27:13. > :27:16.The weather is keeping us guessing all week.

:27:16. > :27:18.First, hot, then, cold. Finally a reminder of the stories

:27:18. > :27:21.making the headlines. A group of Catholic teenagers have

:27:21. > :27:27.been speaking of their terror after being attacked by a loyalist gang

:27:27. > :27:30.while working on a film set in the Village area of Belfast.

:27:30. > :27:40.Sean Quinn insists he has never misled anyone, as a Belfast court

:27:40. > :27:43.overturns his insolvency status. A murder trial has heard harrowing

:27:43. > :27:46.evidence from colleagues of Constable Stephen Carroll who

:27:47. > :27:49.attended the hoax call which lured him to his death.

:27:49. > :27:52.And in the row over a referendum on Scottish independence, the

:27:52. > :27:57.Westminster government has insisted that only it can decide on the date

:27:58. > :28:01.for a vote. Our late summary is at 10:25pm. You
