:00:51. > :00:55.A gay couple say they were forced to adopt children from England because

:00:55. > :00:57.of confusion over the law here. Northern Ireland will be turning

:00:57. > :01:05.pink this way. We will be having a special report from Milan.

:01:05. > :01:09.And today was probably the campest day of the week, also the man --

:01:09. > :01:17.mildest and it will get colder. -- today was probably the dampers

:01:17. > :01:21.today. The eternal general is reviewing the

:01:21. > :01:26.decision not to prosecute Gerry Adams over whether he withheld

:01:26. > :01:31.information from the police prosecuting his brothers. Liam Adams

:01:31. > :01:33.will be prosecuted next month for the sexual abuse of his daughter

:01:33. > :01:39.will be prosecuted next month for during the 1970s and 80s. Today the

:01:40. > :01:44.attorney general said he had accepted a request to review the

:01:44. > :01:48.handling of the case -- referring to Gerry Adams.

:01:48. > :01:52.His brother's trial finished last week. Since then Gerry Adams has

:01:52. > :01:56.been caught up in the fallout. There were questions about wife in nine

:01:56. > :02:00.years the Sinn Fein president kept secret confession his brother had

:02:00. > :02:02.made about the sexual abuse of his daughter, and whether in doing so,

:02:02. > :02:07.he would do it -- guilty of a daughter, and whether in doing so,

:02:07. > :02:11.criminal offence. The policing board said the matter had been

:02:11. > :02:15.investigated, a file has been sent to the Public prosecution service

:02:15. > :02:22.recommending no prosecution. It had come to the same conclusion. But

:02:22. > :02:28.today the director of public custody -- public prosecution said that he

:02:29. > :02:31.had decided to look at it again. He was asking the attorney general to

:02:31. > :02:40.independently reviewed the matter. was asking the attorney general to

:02:40. > :02:43.There are questions as to why they did not follow up lines of enquiry

:02:43. > :02:47.and interviewing Gerry Adams about this knowledge of sexual abuse of a

:02:47. > :02:53.child. I think it is right that there is an opinion -- independent

:02:53. > :02:56.review. The intervention of the Director of Public Prosecutions has

:02:56. > :03:02.ensured the questions will remain current. It is not Barra McGrory's

:03:02. > :03:06.first involvement with this case. In 2007, while Gerry Adams was giving a

:03:06. > :03:09.police statement in which he did not mention his brother's confession,

:03:09. > :03:16.Vista McGrory was his then solicitor. It was to be two years

:03:16. > :03:20.later in 2009 before Mr Adams made a second statement to detectives

:03:20. > :03:24.telling them about the confession. Under cross-examination at his

:03:24. > :03:26.brother's trial in April this year, a prosecution barrister put it to Mr

:03:26. > :03:46.Adams that... In response, Gerry Adams said he

:03:46. > :03:52.thought Gerry Adams had police's -- has his nieces allegations since 19

:03:52. > :03:57.97. We asked him if he had been aware of the invention in 2007. A

:03:57. > :03:59.spokesperson confirmed that Barra McGrory had been Mr Adams solicitor

:03:59. > :04:16.at that time. Barra McGrory was appointed Northern

:04:16. > :04:25.Ireland's director of public schemes in November 2011. A month after the

:04:25. > :04:36.decision to not trust acute -- to not prosecute Gerry Adams. We did

:04:36. > :04:42.not think there was so much interest! For now, Gerry Adams is

:04:42. > :04:47.facing a review about his evidence to his brother's trial, and review

:04:47. > :04:50.of the Attorney General about the decision to not prosecute him for

:04:51. > :04:55.withholding information. The DPP says the attorney general will be

:04:55. > :05:00.given access to all material that he considers necessary to complete its

:05:00. > :05:03.review. Mr Adams said this evening he had no comment to make on that

:05:03. > :05:19.review. He blamed some politicians and elements of the media...

:05:19. > :05:25.Unionists have reacted angrily to knew that there is to be a

:05:25. > :05:31.commemoration for the Shankill bomber. Just days before the 20th

:05:31. > :05:35.anniversary of the atrocities. Nine people died when Thomas Begley's

:05:35. > :05:40.bomb went off in the Frizell's fish shop in October 1993, he was also

:05:40. > :05:42.killed. Leaflets have been circulated advertising a

:05:42. > :05:47.commemoration for him in the Ardoyne area. Sinn Fein says Thomas

:05:47. > :05:51.Begley's family have a right to remember him. I know that it is

:05:52. > :05:57.difficult, I would not in anyway try to ignore the fact that it be

:05:57. > :06:00.difficult for those others killed in that bomb explosion and know there

:06:00. > :06:08.is something going on to commemorate them. I think in the end it is an

:06:08. > :06:11.acceptance, that loved ones and friends are going to remember Thomas

:06:11. > :06:15.Begley. He did not create the conflict, he was himself a victim of

:06:15. > :06:21.the conflict. Alan McBride from victims group WAVE joins me now, you

:06:21. > :06:28.lost your wife and father-in-law in the bombing, how do you feel about

:06:29. > :06:32.this? I am speaking in a personal capacity, but when I heard about it

:06:32. > :06:38.this afternoon, I agree with Sinn Fein, everyone has the right to

:06:38. > :06:41.remember their dead. It is how they are remembered, particularly people

:06:41. > :06:43.who have been involved in atrocities in the way Thomas Begley was. For

:06:43. > :06:49.me, and I know do not know what the in the way Thomas Begley was. For

:06:49. > :06:51.plans are for the 20th anniversary, but I would be appealing to the

:06:51. > :06:55.plans are for the 20th anniversary, organisers of this commemoration to

:06:55. > :06:59.make sure it is sensitive to the families of those who Thomas Begley

:06:59. > :07:06.killed. Have there been any commemorations in the past since the

:07:06. > :07:10.bombing? I can remember that about a year to the day after Shannon was

:07:10. > :07:15.killed, I lived close to Ardoyne that time and I heard a lot of music

:07:15. > :07:18.and bands coming from the Ardoyne, someone told me it was a

:07:18. > :07:22.commemoration for the life of Thomas Begley. A year on from the bomb,

:07:23. > :07:27.that really hurt in regards to how that acts took place. I do not know

:07:27. > :07:32.the right and wrong is of it but that is what I was told. It hurt me

:07:32. > :07:35.at the time. It is about how these things are done and not whether they

:07:35. > :07:39.are done or not. What is your sense of other people in the Shankill who

:07:39. > :07:47.love other people -- lost other people? Some people are outraged by

:07:47. > :07:51.this and I have sympathy for that. Because of the way that this came

:07:51. > :07:56.out today, there was no warning, and the media had a role to play in that

:07:56. > :08:02.in terms of how they would cost these things. Thomas Begley was

:08:02. > :08:07.involved, if it was not something as big as Shankill, it would not have

:08:07. > :08:12.been a big story. In terms of the wider implications, it is part of

:08:12. > :08:17.the wider question of dealing with the past. I obviously suffered with

:08:17. > :08:22.the Shankill bomb, I am fed up with the way it is canonised. For

:08:22. > :08:29.unionists to criticise and condemn and at the same time say nothing

:08:29. > :08:33.about other commemorations in the Shankill is hypocrisy. The principal

:08:33. > :08:37.on this must be to do no further harm or heard to the families who

:08:38. > :08:44.lost loved ones. This commemoration in terms of how it played out could

:08:44. > :08:53.do that. A leading loyalist has described

:08:54. > :08:58.concerns over an upscaling of the loyalist protest and suggestions of

:08:58. > :09:05.civil disobedience as a storm in a teacup. A further spokesman has said

:09:05. > :09:07.that any protest should be peaceful and legal.

:09:07. > :09:13.Renewed concerns over the Orange protest at the Ardoyne interface

:09:13. > :09:19.work barked by this speech at the weekend by a senior Orangemen. When

:09:19. > :09:25.the time is right we would probably upscale our protests, and that is

:09:25. > :09:31.what we tend to. Upscale them. CHEERING upscale them right up and

:09:31. > :09:35.up to civil disobedience if that is CHEERING upscale them right up and

:09:35. > :09:44.what it takes! On the platform with him were storm

:09:44. > :09:49.administers and other Unionists. This is not the first time that he

:09:49. > :09:54.has made news. The former senior doorkeeper at Stormont was suspended

:09:54. > :09:59.over remarks he made about paramilitary guns to defend the

:09:59. > :10:03.loyalist community during an interview. He also made headlines

:10:03. > :10:06.when he along with others were involved in talks with senior

:10:06. > :10:10.Republicans over the Orange parade. He has also been a leading exponent

:10:10. > :10:16.of the well fast Orange Festival making the place more of a tourist

:10:16. > :10:19.attraction for the city. We asked for an interview but we were told by

:10:19. > :10:29.attraction for the city. We asked the order that he was not

:10:29. > :10:36.this afternoon, I sought clarification from Winston Ervine of

:10:36. > :10:42.the PU P he was on the platform on Saturday. I think what he was doing

:10:42. > :10:47.on Saturday was simply pointing to a number of options that people have

:10:47. > :10:51.opened themselves in every given situation of this nature. Let me be

:10:51. > :10:55.clear, and let me clarify our position, we want to see a

:10:55. > :11:00.resolution through this matter sooner rather than later. Our

:11:00. > :11:02.proposals for a mourning period to see the completion of the 12th of

:11:02. > :11:04.proposals for a mourning period to July annual parade in north Belfast

:11:04. > :11:09.on a quiet Saturday morning, takes July annual parade in north Belfast

:11:09. > :11:15.five minutes, that is a proposal on the table, that is our position and

:11:15. > :11:18.we want to see people respond positively to this. We asked the

:11:18. > :11:21.Stormont minister involved how he felt standing next to a man

:11:21. > :11:27.suggesting a campaign of civil disobedience. The explanation he has

:11:27. > :11:32.been given today, it is very clear that people should be peaceful and

:11:32. > :11:35.legal. If people say that it should be peaceful and legal I am behind

:11:35. > :11:39.them. All those affected by the protest will be keeping a close eye

:11:39. > :11:43.on developers in the days and weeks ahead.

:11:43. > :11:48.Coming up before 7pm. Parents at a County Down primary school protest

:11:48. > :11:56.about the return of the headmaster. We will have all of the details.

:11:56. > :11:59.A gay couple from Northern Ireland say they had to go to England to

:11:59. > :12:04.adopt because of the confusion around the law here. Earlier this

:12:04. > :12:10.year, the Court of appeals ruled abound on Gay, Lesbian and unmarried

:12:10. > :12:11.couples adopting was unlawful. The health minister is planning to

:12:11. > :12:17.couples adopting was unlawful. The challenge that decision in the

:12:17. > :12:21.Supreme Court. What counts as a family and a stable

:12:21. > :12:26.home? That is the question at the centre of a legal battle about

:12:26. > :12:29.adoption. In England, Scotland and Wales gay, lesbian and married

:12:29. > :12:32.couples are able to adopt children, but until recently that was banned

:12:32. > :12:36.couples are able to adopt children, in Northern Ireland and the issue is

:12:36. > :12:40.still being fought in the courts. With so much uncertainty, Jason and

:12:40. > :12:43.John took the decision to adopt in England and brought the two boys

:12:43. > :12:47.back to live with them in County Antrim. There are children here

:12:47. > :12:53.waiting in the system to have families come forward -- come for

:12:53. > :12:59.them, but unfortunately we were not allowed to go down that route. You

:12:59. > :13:01.could argue all day about the gay thing, whether it is right that

:13:01. > :13:05.could argue all day about the gay someone who is gay should be gay,

:13:05. > :13:08.but I believe it is going back to that loving environment and caring

:13:08. > :13:14.environment, and the stability you can give these children, which they

:13:14. > :13:17.have not had. This summer, the Court of Appeal ruled the legislation

:13:17. > :13:21.which prevented a gay couple from adopting within Northern Ireland was

:13:21. > :13:24.unlawful because it breached human rights. However, Stormont's health

:13:24. > :13:28.minister is planning to go to the Supreme Court in order to challenge

:13:28. > :13:31.that decision. He wants to restore a policy would allow both married

:13:31. > :13:39.couples and single people to adopt, but banned gay, lesbian and

:13:40. > :13:43.unmarried couples. I look at where the Northern Ireland

:13:43. > :13:47.public is on these issues and what is in the best stress of the

:13:47. > :13:52.children, first and foremost. -- best interests of the children. We

:13:52. > :13:55.have a good flow of adoptive parents available, and I think we should be

:13:55. > :14:01.cautious of changing the system, that provides the stability those

:14:01. > :14:05.children need. On the streets of Belfast people were very vocal but

:14:05. > :14:09.divided on the issue, in some cases even within families.

:14:09. > :14:17.Two people can give a child a good home whether they are gay or not.

:14:17. > :14:22.A man cannot take a place of women as regards rearing a child. I am

:14:22. > :14:25.convinced about that. Because the issue is not only being

:14:25. > :14:29.debated by the public but also the courts, there are other gay couples

:14:29. > :14:31.currently looking at the option of adopting children elsewhere in the

:14:31. > :14:40.UK with the intention of giving them a home in Northern Ireland.

:14:40. > :14:43.Parents at a County Down primary school have been protesting about

:14:43. > :14:45.the return to school of its principal. He won an appeal against

:14:45. > :14:46.the return to school of its dismissal and this morning returned

:14:46. > :14:52.to the school - after an absence of As our education correspondent,

:14:52. > :14:56.Maggie Taggart, reports on the issue that has divided the village of

:14:56. > :15:03.Ballymartin. Saint Josephs primary school finds

:15:03. > :15:06.itself the centre of a storm with parents on opposing side over the

:15:06. > :15:09.itself the centre of a storm with school principal, John White.

:15:09. > :15:15.Following an investigation by the board of governors into allegation

:15:15. > :15:16.of grossness conduct he was sacked, but an appeals tribunal overturned

:15:16. > :15:20.of grossness conduct he was sacked, the decision ruling he was unfairly

:15:20. > :15:25.dismissed. Mr White denied all allegations. The tribunal's decision

:15:25. > :15:29.paved the way for his return to work but this morning angry parents

:15:29. > :15:32.gathered at the doors. The fundamental relationships that are

:15:32. > :15:39.based on trust and confidence no longer exit stub. The reputation at

:15:39. > :15:43.future of the school at stake and we are not prepared to accept the

:15:43. > :15:47.return of Mr White to the school. As a parent how far a new prepared to

:15:47. > :15:51.go? I would seriously consider removing my daughter from the skill

:15:51. > :15:55.to an alternative educational source. This is a school divided.

:15:55. > :16:01.Those opposed were only given a few days noticed -- notice, but others

:16:01. > :16:05.were equally staunch in his right to return as principal. It has caused a

:16:05. > :16:10.lot of antagonism. You either agree with the rule of law or you don't.

:16:10. > :16:13.We have decided the independent body has seen all of the evidence

:16:13. > :16:17.available and we agree with their decision. There seems to be a

:16:17. > :16:20.different issues here, where some of the members of the Board of

:16:20. > :16:24.Governors and some parents don't want the principle to return.

:16:24. > :16:28.The employment tribunal found fault with the way the Board of Governors

:16:28. > :16:30.investigated the allegations against Mr White. It recommended the council

:16:30. > :16:34.for Catholic maintained schools Mr White. It recommended the council

:16:34. > :16:36.provide appropriate guidance to Board of governors. It also

:16:36. > :16:40.recommended Mr White should be careful not to place themselves in

:16:40. > :16:46.situations where his professional conduct could be called into

:16:46. > :16:49.question. Six of the eight Board of Governors including the local Q8

:16:49. > :16:56.turned up at the school this morning. -- the local curate. The

:16:56. > :17:03.Board of Governors took a decision to dismiss Mr White. We investigated

:17:03. > :17:13.a situation that arose in January 2012. We reached a conclusion on

:17:13. > :17:18.that, and we are satisfied that that was the correct decision to reach.

:17:18. > :17:21.It is now understood Mr White will not return to the school

:17:21. > :17:26.immediately. Instead committee will spend the rest of the academic year

:17:26. > :17:30.trying to find another job. -- instead, he will spend. If that is

:17:30. > :17:33.not possible, Mr White, who declined a BBC interview, would have the

:17:33. > :17:38.not possible, Mr White, who declined right to retain his post.

:17:38. > :17:40.There has been condemnation of a sectarian graffiti attack on a

:17:40. > :17:42.church in Londonderry. Republican slogans were painted across a wall

:17:42. > :17:44.and on the doors of Ballyarnett slogans were painted across a wall

:17:44. > :17:47.Presbyterian over the weekend. Parishioners were out today

:17:47. > :17:50.repairing the damage and have also installed protective screens on the

:17:50. > :17:59.church's windows to protect it from future attacks.

:17:59. > :18:01.A security alert that caused disruption for thousands of

:18:01. > :18:03.motorists this morning was an elaborate hoax.

:18:03. > :18:07.The M1 between Lisburn and Belfast was closed for several hours after a

:18:07. > :18:10.suspicious object was found on the Kennedy Way offslip. Four men have

:18:11. > :18:14.been arrested in connection with the incident. Meanwhile, police have

:18:14. > :18:17.confirmed that two viable pipe bomb type devices have been taken away

:18:35. > :18:40.is Belfast bound next year, had its grand launch in Milan today. Here's

:18:40. > :18:43.Mark Sidebottom. The whiff of financial scandal which

:18:43. > :18:47.bubbled up in Italy last week is lifting. Assurances have been sought

:18:47. > :18:52.and given. Belfast remains on track to welcome the cast of thousands

:18:52. > :18:55.involved in the Giro next May. The total cost to Northern Ireland is

:18:55. > :18:56.expected to exceed £4 cmillion pounds, and Tourism Minister Arlene

:18:56. > :19:00.expected to exceed £4 cmillion foster says that represents value

:19:00. > :19:06.for money. -- £4 million. From Milan, BBC Newsline's Thomas Kane

:19:06. > :19:11.reports. It is not a case of the red carpet

:19:11. > :19:15.here in Milan, -- another case come in one of the most fashionable

:19:15. > :19:19.cities of the world. Pink is the only cover in style. It is the

:19:19. > :19:24.colour of Jersey given to the winner of the Giro d'Italia for over a

:19:24. > :19:28.century. This may, the famous tour will start in Belfast. The eyes of

:19:28. > :19:32.the world will be looking there for an event -- Arlene Foster says is

:19:32. > :19:39.the biggest event ever to come to Northern Ireland.

:19:39. > :19:47.The riders are treated like superstars, as thousands of fans

:19:47. > :19:51.lined the streets to cheer on their heroes.

:19:51. > :19:55.This is the final race of the European season, but here nothing is

:19:55. > :19:59.quite like the three-week Giro d'Italia tour. An event that

:19:59. > :20:06.globally ranks alongside the Tour de France. Around 7500 people work

:20:06. > :20:12.everyday on the tour, so it is a big little village moving about. The

:20:12. > :20:16.Giro is probably as big. Anyway, just to say, it is going to be

:20:16. > :20:17.something great, there will be loads of things going on, more than a

:20:17. > :20:26.something great, there will be loads cycling race.

:20:26. > :20:31.Here, cycling is like a religion. So much so that the sport has its own

:20:31. > :20:36.patron saint. This church is a shrine to the sport, honouring the

:20:36. > :20:43.greats. And riders who have lost their lives while racing. It is

:20:43. > :20:45.passed every year by the race. But it has not been a smooth ride for

:20:45. > :20:50.the company who organise it has not been a smooth ride for

:20:50. > :20:53.and the Giro d'Italia. RCS sport on a number of magazines and newspapers

:20:53. > :20:57.here, but just last week their chief operating officer was suspended

:20:57. > :21:00.here, but just last week their chief after it emerged up to £11 million

:21:09. > :21:15.we're working on those in order to fix them, and of course there is an

:21:15. > :21:20.investigation, where we will understand exactly and fix

:21:20. > :21:27.everything that needs to be fixed. The first Giro was held in 1909. It

:21:27. > :21:32.attracts an estimated television audience of almost 800 million

:21:32. > :21:38.viewers. While over £3 million worth of government funding helped attract

:21:38. > :21:42.it to Northern Ireland. We are expecting around 150,000 visitors to

:21:42. > :21:45.come to Northern Ireland for the race. We think it will give us a

:21:45. > :21:48.global outreach we have never had before. We thought the G8 summit

:21:48. > :21:51.gave us a global outreach but this will be bigger committed the biggest

:21:51. > :21:55.ever event we have put on in Northern Ireland.

:21:55. > :22:01.This is a spectacular trophy that the winner of the Giro d'Italia

:22:01. > :22:05.received, and it is hoped that if the stages in Northern Ireland this

:22:05. > :22:10.summer are a success it may result in a bid for the Tour de France.

:22:10. > :22:18.Apologies about the sound at the top of that piece.

:22:18. > :22:20.What a weekend it has been for a trio of our motorcyclists. One

:22:20. > :22:23.What a weekend it has been for a secured a title and two others could

:22:23. > :22:25.yet claim top prize in their respective championships. In the

:22:25. > :22:30.World Superbikes, Eugene Laverty remains second in the standings,

:22:30. > :22:34.with just one more round to go. The Toomebridge rider came third in

:22:34. > :22:38.the opening race at Magny Cours, and followed that up with second place

:22:38. > :22:42.in Race Two. But - and it's a big "but" - Englishman Tom Sykes won

:22:42. > :22:48.both races at the weekend and so extended his lead in the overall

:22:48. > :22:53.standings. Laverty is now one of only two riders who can still catch

:22:53. > :22:56.Sykes with the final round in Jerez in a fortnight.

:22:56. > :22:59.Alasdair Seeley is also still in contention in the British Supersport

:22:59. > :23:02.championship, as we'll see shortly. But Northern Ireland already has one

:23:02. > :23:05.winner in Marty Nutt. He clinched the Ducati Challenge Championship

:23:05. > :23:10.yesterday at Silverstone, and his is quite a story. Stephen Watson

:23:10. > :23:15.reports. After 15 years of trying, Marty Nutt

:23:15. > :23:24.cruised in to celebrate Silverstone success.

:23:24. > :23:26.threatening injury, but always believed

:23:26. > :23:32.We race because we love racing. The result is a Bourses. We love getting

:23:33. > :23:40.in the motor home, going away and going racing. -- the result is a

:23:40. > :23:43.bonus. I broke my back and neck and stuff last year, I did not want to

:23:43. > :23:50.leave it like that. To come back here today was just amazing.

:23:50. > :23:54.A key member of Marty Nutt's team is his dad, Billy, a former clerk of

:23:54. > :23:59.the course of the North West 200 and Ulster Grand Prix.

:23:59. > :24:04.We have just been so unlucky with the past, maybe big problems and not

:24:04. > :24:10.enough money to get in the right teams, but he has worked hard and I

:24:10. > :24:12.am proud of him. More motorcycling silverware for Northern Ireland and

:24:12. > :24:16.there could be more to come this season, because a local rider and

:24:16. > :24:22.local team are vying for the British Supersport championship. Alastair

:24:22. > :24:27.Seeley from Carrickfergus, and Scotsman Stuart Easton Riding for

:24:27. > :24:32.the March rain outfit are neck and neck.

:24:32. > :24:36.It has been hard to watch at times, and I'm a -- dramatic duel between

:24:37. > :24:44.the two, and after a week -- weekend race win for Alastair Seeley it will

:24:44. > :24:45.come down to the last round. We have won numerous championships

:24:45. > :24:49.come down to the last round. at home, I have lifted two titles

:24:49. > :24:54.now, I came into this weekend 32 points behind. I had my 34th

:24:54. > :24:59.birthday yesterday and Mike Ray Stubbs 34. -- I came in 34 points

:24:59. > :25:11.behind. -- might race number is 34. In local football, it has taken just

:25:11. > :25:22.six weeks and six consecutive wins for Linfield to move from bottom to

:25:22. > :25:27.top of the Irish Premiership. David Jefferies men were sent top. As for

:25:27. > :25:31.Cliftonville, they lost at home to the Crusaders, both goals in the

:25:31. > :25:36.second half. The first from this pol Hinckley run and shot. A decisive

:25:36. > :25:40.second from a towering header by an unmarked Jordan Owens.

:25:40. > :25:48.Elsewhere, Portadown managed to slip off the summit. They drew 2-2 away

:25:48. > :25:53.to Warrenpoint. Darren Murray thought he had won the game, only

:25:53. > :25:56.for this effort to be ruled offside. In Gaelic football, Roslea have won

:25:56. > :25:59.the Fermanagh Club Championship for the third time in four years. They

:25:59. > :26:04.defeated Belcoo by three in yesterday's final. Elsewhere, in

:26:04. > :26:13.Derry reigning champions Ballinderry made it three in a row.

:26:13. > :26:17.Congratulations to all concerned. Let's see if the weather is good to

:26:17. > :26:21.continue. It has not been the sunniest started

:26:21. > :26:25.a week but it has been very mild, almost summerlike with temperatures

:26:25. > :26:29.up to 19 Celsius at Castlederg, but it will not stay that way. We will

:26:29. > :26:33.see a little bit of a change taking place, the winds swinging round from

:26:33. > :26:37.the north, picking up and bringing temperatures down. On the plus side,

:26:37. > :26:43.high pressure is building, that should bring us more dry weather and

:26:43. > :26:47.more sunshine. Not much sunshine today, a brisk southerly breeze in

:26:47. > :26:50.places as a weather front approached from the Atlantic. That has been

:26:50. > :26:55.bringing spells of rain this afternoon, fragmented as it pushes

:26:55. > :26:59.eastwards, still potential for the odd heavy bursts this evening before

:26:59. > :27:01.it clears out of the way and the breeze eases Darren. It will be

:27:01. > :27:07.turning drier through the night, some showers through the north and

:27:07. > :27:11.west and fairly mild tonight, too. Temperatures around 12 or 13

:27:11. > :27:16.Celsius. Tomorrow, it probably is going to be cloudy, but not all doom

:27:16. > :27:20.and gloom, some bright sunny spells coming through, and the emphasis is

:27:20. > :27:27.on dry weather, though I have to say there may be some showers coming in

:27:27. > :27:33.two parts of Fermanagh, Tyrone, Londonderry and along the north

:27:33. > :27:37.coast towards Antrim. A lot of places will avoid them, particularly

:27:37. > :27:40.the further south and east you are, but with a westerly breeze instead

:27:40. > :27:47.of a southerly, temperatures a little bit down to 16 Celsius. The
