:01:08. > :01:11.Internationals and the women have a tough draw in the World Cup.

:01:12. > :01:13.And in the weather, showers and blustery South West winds are the

:01:14. > :01:23.story for the next 24 hours. Within hours of the Shankill

:01:24. > :01:28.bombing, there was speculation about where and how loyalist

:01:29. > :01:33.paramilitaries might retaliate. A number of Catholics were killed in

:01:34. > :01:36.subsequent days. Then, 20 years ago tonight came a gun attack on a bar

:01:37. > :01:40.in a quiet County Londonderry village and the name of Greysteel

:01:41. > :01:45.was added to the terrible litany of the Troubles. Our reporter in the

:01:46. > :01:48.north west, Keiron Tourish, who covered the 1993 attack for BBC

:01:49. > :01:56.Newsline is back in Greysteel this evening.

:01:57. > :02:03.Well, 20 years on, there is still a palpable sense of loss in this

:02:04. > :02:08.community. Many people here simply want to remember their loved ones in

:02:09. > :02:12.a very quiet and dignified way. In the past few days, I've spoken to

:02:13. > :02:15.those who were bereaved, those who went to help and those who've tried

:02:16. > :02:22.to make sure the village can recover.

:02:23. > :02:34.It was one of the worst atrocities of the Troubles. UFF men entered

:02:35. > :02:40.this are in Greysteel and shop dead seven people. An ace man died later.

:02:41. > :02:46.Before opening fire, one of the gunmen shouted trick or treat and

:02:47. > :02:55.the youngest victim replied, that is not funny. A 59-year-old mother of

:02:56. > :03:01.five was also one of the bacon. Her son save the family want to look to

:03:02. > :03:10.a more positive, peaceful future. -- was also one of the victims. Total

:03:11. > :03:19.dedication to her family. A good woman. The shock when it happened,

:03:20. > :03:24.the world was torn apart. As time has gone by, it is healing. It will

:03:25. > :03:31.never stop but you become a stronger person. For those present that

:03:32. > :03:38.night, it was a dreadful experience they will never forget. Willow-macro

:03:39. > :03:44.we were stunned. -- we were stunned. There were people that were

:03:45. > :03:49.obviously shot and wounded laid on the floor, slumped in seats, lying

:03:50. > :03:54.across tables, people work flying and screaming and all wanting to

:03:55. > :03:59.help. It was actually very overwhelming. This witness was in

:04:00. > :04:06.the pub and spoke to me on the night. His uncle was shot dead. The

:04:07. > :04:12.whole place was screaming, everybody was screaming. I couldn't believe

:04:13. > :04:19.it. We were terrified. It was all over in two minutes. Two minutes,

:04:20. > :04:23.four bursts of machine gun fire. In the wake of the tragedy, the

:04:24. > :04:32.community in Greysteel was besieged by the world of Mac media. -- the

:04:33. > :04:36.world's leader. -- media. John Hume broke down, reflecting the sense of

:04:37. > :04:44.the world and felt throughout the wider public.

:04:45. > :04:50.One priest who was based in the village at the time says it was a

:04:51. > :04:54.terrible loss of life, the Greysteel community was determined to work

:04:55. > :05:03.together. Father Stephen Kinney is retired and based near Omagh. the

:05:04. > :05:11.message was stay that as we are, though we are ourselves. The

:05:12. > :05:17.forgiveness aspect of it, which is something that people in the press

:05:18. > :05:24.latch onto, and it was real. The people of Greysteel, through each

:05:25. > :05:33.other, found the strength or the freedom to offer forgiveness. But

:05:34. > :05:39.people in Greysteel have been trying to move on with their lives. Is this

:05:40. > :05:44.units have developed to if the area new employment and renewal. For

:05:45. > :05:48.employers, they sense the determination to foster even greater

:05:49. > :05:55.community harmony. Greysteel is a lovely community. I am not here

:05:56. > :06:05.myself -- from here but I have felt embraced here. I think it is a great

:06:06. > :06:11.face. It is a race that is very much together, everybody has got a great

:06:12. > :06:16.sense of community. I think we are in a better Northern Ireland now and

:06:17. > :06:19.I throw that we have lasting peace here and I hope that everybody can

:06:20. > :06:29.talk together and make it that we have no more violent or anybody

:06:30. > :06:33.tiling -- dying again. This evening, there will be an anniversary Mass in

:06:34. > :06:37.the local chapel at which Protestant ministers aren't you to attend.

:06:38. > :06:41.Afterwards relatives and friends will make their way here to the

:06:42. > :06:47.memorial for especial cross community service. After that, Babel

:06:48. > :06:52.pray for the dead and injured just as they did on this spot 20 years

:06:53. > :06:58.ago. There will be assigned for those who died and afterwards, local

:06:59. > :07:06.children in the choir will perform a final hymn. It will undoubtedly be a

:07:07. > :07:10.very emotional evening. The Equality Commission has said it

:07:11. > :07:14.backs same sex marriage for gay and lesbian couples. It's the first time

:07:15. > :07:18.the commission has entered the debate. It says it's a fundamental

:07:19. > :07:25.issue that needs to be addressed by legislation. Conor Macauley reports.

:07:26. > :07:32.Northern Ireland was the last part of the UK to be criminalised

:07:33. > :07:37.homosexuality and in 2005 the first to perform civil partnerships. In

:07:38. > :07:42.the intervening years, members of the gay community have campaigned

:07:43. > :07:48.for equal marriage rights. Twice, the Semi has voted in favour, twice

:07:49. > :07:54.the DUP has tabled a veto to block it. Now, for the first time, the

:07:55. > :08:00.equality commission has entered the debate. we have said that we support

:08:01. > :08:03.same-sex marriage. It is a fundamental equality matter. It

:08:04. > :08:08.needs to be addressed, leadership needs to be shown, people that we

:08:09. > :08:12.talk to from the gay and lesbian community feel let down by the ace.

:08:13. > :08:23.We then there was an opportunity to provide leadership here. Some oppose

:08:24. > :08:26.it on religious grounds. This is where peoples rights will get

:08:27. > :08:32.trampled on. If the definition of marriage is to be changed, once

:08:33. > :08:36.there is the change in the legal definition of marriage, then those

:08:37. > :08:42.who take a concrete review will find themselves up against the law. But

:08:43. > :08:45.those who have been to the fore in the campaign to have the laws

:08:46. > :08:52.changed, they say it is no longer tenable. stop hijacking what family

:08:53. > :08:59.is and we all needed and stop denying that we have it. I love

:09:00. > :09:02.family values, and I am gay. The commission says Northern Ireland

:09:03. > :09:10.could be falling behind when it comes to laws tackling

:09:11. > :09:14.discrimination when it comes to disability and sexual orientation.

:09:15. > :09:17.The Secretary of State, Theresa Villiers, says all possible efforts

:09:18. > :09:20.will be made to find those responsible for a recent spate of

:09:21. > :09:23.bomb attacks. She was speaking after meeting staff at Stormont Castle who

:09:24. > :09:28.yesterday intercepted a letterbomb addressed to her. Last night, a

:09:29. > :09:33.controlled explosion was carried out on a viable device found in the

:09:34. > :09:37.Village area of South Belfast. There was also a second alert on the

:09:38. > :09:40.Stormont estate this morning which ended with nothing being found,

:09:41. > :09:51.while another alert at the High Court also turned out to be a false

:09:52. > :09:54.alarm. These attacks are reckless, disgraceful, and they just won't

:09:55. > :10:00.succeed. There was very strong support for the current political

:10:01. > :10:03.settlement here. There was strong support for moving forward and not

:10:04. > :10:06.going back to a very bitter and divided past.

:10:07. > :10:09.World football's governing body may order local clubs to play games

:10:10. > :10:12.behind closed doors if some fans persist in sectarian chanting. The

:10:13. > :10:15.warning from one of FIFA's vice presidents, Jimmy Boyce, came after

:10:16. > :10:18.an announcement at last night's Linfield Cliftonville match - saying

:10:19. > :10:19.that the game would be abandoned if fans didn't stop singing sectarian

:10:20. > :10:43.songs. Thomas Kane reports. And times, it almost seemed like the

:10:44. > :10:49.match was a second every event. -- a secondary event. Tenants before the

:10:50. > :10:53.end of the game, an announcement was made on the public address system.

:10:54. > :11:06.-- ten minutes before the end of the game. It is difficult to make out

:11:07. > :11:12.that was a plea for the chancing to stop. Following the announcement,

:11:13. > :11:15.our camera now -- camera microphone didn't pick up any further sectarian

:11:16. > :11:23.chancing but there is no question that before it was made, both sets

:11:24. > :11:24.of fans were involved. This was an example of some of the earlier

:11:25. > :11:30.singing. It was particularly bad midway

:11:31. > :11:50.through the second half. SECTARIAN CHANTING. Some supporters

:11:51. > :11:56.appeared to criticise what was going on. Cliftonville say they will not

:11:57. > :12:01.tolerate any form of sectarianism and in conjunction with IFA continue

:12:02. > :12:05.to strive to eradicate from football. At Lingfield today, they

:12:06. > :12:09.also released a statement condemning the behaviour, saying they have

:12:10. > :12:15.worked hard and they will continue to work hard to oppose sectarianism

:12:16. > :12:22.and any other forms of intolerance which have no place in the game.

:12:23. > :12:32.Former Cliftonville chairman Jim Boyce was at the match coach and

:12:33. > :12:38.spoke to us on route to a meeting at Geneva. What FIFA and UEFA are going

:12:39. > :12:41.to do is set out guidelines. They have threatened closure of sections

:12:42. > :12:48.of the grounds with this behaviour occurs from. If it then occurs, they

:12:49. > :12:54.can order games to be played behind closed doors and, if it continues,

:12:55. > :13:02.then there will be point actually deducted from clubs. He also

:13:03. > :13:07.reiterated that the days of fining clubs are over, insisting it was a

:13:08. > :13:12.waste of time. It is night up to the Irish football Association. The

:13:13. > :13:16.government --... BBC Newsline made several attempts

:13:17. > :13:18.to contact the IFA today but no-one was available for comment. A

:13:19. > :13:23.statement from the IFA is expected later tonight. Earlier, I spoke to

:13:24. > :13:26.the group sports editor of the Belfast Telegraph, Jim Gracey. I

:13:27. > :13:29.asked him first, in his 30 years of reporting local football, if he

:13:30. > :13:37.could recall a public announcement warning that a match would have to

:13:38. > :13:42.be abandoned in such circumstances. Not in my time. I have in around

:13:43. > :13:47.football for quite some time. I have seen worse incidents than that but I

:13:48. > :13:51.have never heard of an incident where a game was threatened to be

:13:52. > :13:55.abandoned. Every some confusion as to whether this was from the referee

:13:56. > :14:02.but the announcement was certainly made and it needed to be made and it

:14:03. > :14:04.had the desired effect. The club say the chancing was from a small

:14:05. > :14:09.minority of fans but a new guidelines that will be introduced

:14:10. > :14:12.by FIFA city clear and they could mean that matches will be played

:14:13. > :14:22.behind closed doors. Is that realistic which Mark --? People are

:14:23. > :14:26.fed up with opening up their newspapers and hearing that there

:14:27. > :14:32.has been sick Caribbean behaviour -- sectarian behaviour. The police need

:14:33. > :14:36.to take a firmer hand on this. It doesn't happen anywhere else. It

:14:37. > :14:40.doesn't happen in places of entertainment or other sports

:14:41. > :14:43.grounds. These people who say -- do it suspect they will get away with

:14:44. > :14:46.it. If they knew that the law was going to come down hard on them, I

:14:47. > :14:54.think you would find it would desist. What can clubs do to try and

:14:55. > :15:01.stamp it out completely? To be fair to them, a lot of clubs have taken

:15:02. > :15:03.steps. This ban cannot be made blanket across the whole of the

:15:04. > :15:11.league, it should be but it hasn't been. There are people who have been

:15:12. > :15:17.banned from Clifton home -- from some games that have been able to go

:15:18. > :15:22.to other games. The crowds are winding in Irish league football,

:15:23. > :15:26.what kind of damage does it do? it does shocking damage. People hear

:15:27. > :15:30.about this and they form an opinion of football and football grounds and

:15:31. > :15:34.what goes on there. It is not always strictly true. It doesn't go on at

:15:35. > :15:40.every ground and it doesn't go on week in week out but at the ticker

:15:41. > :15:46.times, it does raise ugly head. If we had stronger and firmer laws in

:15:47. > :15:50.operation, we could stamp this out. We did incidentally speak to the

:15:51. > :15:52.match referee and he tells us he didn't call for the game to be

:15:53. > :15:57.abandoned but did ask for a call to didn't call for the game to be

:15:58. > :15:59.be put out over the tannoy for the sectarian chanting to stop.

:16:00. > :16:01.Plenty to come before 7pm, including: Is Halloween the latest

:16:02. > :16:13.holiday headache for parents when it comes to entertaining the kids?

:16:14. > :16:17.Young people who have to be taken into care begin life with much

:16:18. > :16:20.poorer educational chances. They are much less likely to get five good

:16:21. > :16:26.GCSEs, and that can damage their chances of getting into university.

:16:27. > :16:30.Only one in 20 go to university from the care system - much fewer than

:16:31. > :16:34.teenagers in general. The good news is that admitting they've been in

:16:35. > :16:37.care can open the doors to more help and our education correspondent,

:16:38. > :16:46.Maggie Taggart, has been meeting one young man whose future is looking

:16:47. > :16:49.bright. When Matthew Bingham walked to the

:16:50. > :16:53.University of Ulster, it was because the nation of years of hard work by

:16:54. > :16:58.him with support from his foster carers and his birth family.

:16:59. > :17:01.Declaring his background in care on his University application form did

:17:02. > :17:04.not help them get on his University application form did not help them

:17:05. > :17:10.get onto a course, but it opened the door to extra financial help. They

:17:11. > :17:17.can get extra financial support they can get practical support in terms

:17:18. > :17:21.of help and they can get support if they manage difficulties at

:17:22. > :17:23.university. There is a worry that students from care may be

:17:24. > :17:29.stigmatised by identifying themselves. I was worried that it

:17:30. > :17:33.would make using different and draw attention to you. That people would

:17:34. > :17:38.think differently of you. But it is not like that at all. It is just to

:17:39. > :17:42.give you the support you need. Matthew has been in a foster home

:17:43. > :17:48.since he was three and his carer says he has overcome some obstacles

:17:49. > :17:52.to go to university. Matthew's life has not been the easiest. That is

:17:53. > :17:58.why it is great, as a foster mum, to know that he can get extra support

:17:59. > :18:03.that I cannot always give. The box to take on a University application

:18:04. > :18:08.form has been there since 2000, but a mixture of ignorance and fear of

:18:09. > :18:18.stigma with not enough people have actually ticked bandbox. This

:18:19. > :18:22.campaign aims to change that box. Still to come - He was the first man

:18:23. > :18:24.to sign the Ulster Covenant. Today, Lord Carson's granddaughters

:18:25. > :18:28.saw the table where history was made.

:18:29. > :18:32.Most schoolchildren are halfway through the half-term break. But how

:18:33. > :18:36.do working parents cope with keeping them occupied? For many people, it's

:18:37. > :18:47.quite a juggling act. Chris Page has more.

:18:48. > :18:51.Having a family and a job can mean giving any -- keeping a lot of balls

:18:52. > :18:59.in the air, particularly during school holidays. Parents often rely

:19:00. > :19:02.on holiday clubs -- can't rely on holiday clubs are schemes like this

:19:03. > :19:11.one become increasingly cock popular during half term. The Halloween

:19:12. > :19:13.schemes are becoming more and more popular. Mums and dads need the

:19:14. > :19:19.childcare during the Halloween period as well. His sports, drama

:19:20. > :19:26.and dance scheme takes place in a school that is otherwise empty. But

:19:27. > :19:31.schools are do not always keep in step with each other. Some get a

:19:32. > :19:38.longer time than others. So how can parents solve the childcare

:19:39. > :19:43.Christmas then to Easter, then the Christmas then to Easter, then the

:19:44. > :19:49.summer. As you finish the one, you have to plan for the next one. You

:19:50. > :19:54.just do your best. There is a big cost involved. You have to pay for

:19:55. > :20:00.all the weeks but you just get on with it. Many kids look forward to

:20:01. > :20:06.October half term more than some other holidays, perhaps because of

:20:07. > :20:10.activities like this. At this theme park near Omagh, the Halloween torch

:20:11. > :20:16.lights have been up for several weeks. Children's coming in their

:20:17. > :20:21.hundreds. But finding time to make family memories if -- might be

:20:22. > :20:26.difficult if holidays do not match up. It is difficult with childcare

:20:27. > :20:33.to arrange my holidays. We just won't have a nice time together as a

:20:34. > :20:39.family, that can be awkward to arrange and manage. In times gone

:20:40. > :20:44.by, organising family life was simpler. Now there was more on offer

:20:45. > :20:47.and managing children's holidays can be a cobbler K to business.

:20:48. > :20:51.Their grandfather is one of the most famous men in the history of

:20:52. > :20:55.Northern Ireland. But before today Morwenna Sivright and Sally

:20:56. > :20:57.Greenhall - both in their 80s - had never even been here. But as our

:20:58. > :21:00.political correspondent Gareth Gordon now reports this afternoon

:21:01. > :21:06.they were guests of honour at Stormont in the shadow of Lord

:21:07. > :21:11.Carson's statue. Under the gaze of a much more recent

:21:12. > :21:17.Unionist leader arises descendant of the most famous one of all, Lord

:21:18. > :21:21.Carson. He never wanted a parliament at Stormont, a fact not lost on his

:21:22. > :21:25.granddaughters. He was a union man, you wanted Ireland as a whole, not

:21:26. > :21:32.to be broken up. That was not the dream. On their first visit to

:21:33. > :21:38.Northern Ireland from their home in England, the sisters were welcomed

:21:39. > :21:42.by the speaker of Stormont's latest incarnation, the Assembly. The bad

:21:43. > :21:46.weather meant they had to view this statue of their famous relatives

:21:47. > :21:54.from the comfort of a car. Inside, they got much closer to a bust of

:21:55. > :22:01.Lord Carson. But what about claims from that -- that their grandfather

:22:02. > :22:03.had claimed -- and referred to the children from his marriage as a rum

:22:04. > :22:11.had claimed -- and referred to the lot. I heard that, too. The eldest,

:22:12. > :22:19.we have not been alive to know what he got up to. We don't even know

:22:20. > :22:28.when he died. You don't think he directed that, that your own father?

:22:29. > :22:35.He may well have done! He was very much the younger son and got up to

:22:36. > :22:43.mischief. He went into the Navy to avoid something. The enterprise

:22:44. > :22:52.minister show them around Parliament buildings. We have never seen these,

:22:53. > :22:59.we have only read about it. And there was the table on which, in

:23:00. > :23:03.1912, Lord Carson signed the Ulster Covenant. It was either the council

:23:04. > :23:10.chamber of Belfast City Hall. 78 years ago this week, the remains of

:23:11. > :23:15.Lord Carson were brought back to Northern Ireland on his final

:23:16. > :23:24.journey. Until you came, no one was buried there. The sisters made the

:23:25. > :23:31.two hours and this cathedral their final stop. -- in this cathedral --

:23:32. > :23:35.in this cathedral. They look like they had a good day.

:23:36. > :23:38.A boost for Ireland's Rugby squad ahead of the autumn internationals

:23:39. > :23:42.and some daunting news for the women's team. Gavin's here.

:23:43. > :23:44.British and Irish Lion Connor Murray is available for Ireland's November

:24:48. > :24:49.they catch the bug. We don't see girls become more interested. It is

:24:50. > :24:54.great to see the enthusiasm that they have. They are eager to get

:24:55. > :24:58.involved, to try something new. For those who are unfamiliar with the

:24:59. > :25:06.game, there are a few misconceptions to clear up. They compare us to the

:25:07. > :25:10.Ulster men's team, and you have to be big, huge, physical. But a lot of

:25:11. > :25:16.these girls looked at me and were surprised that we were the same

:25:17. > :25:23.size. It shows that this game can be for anyone. It seems that message is

:25:55. > :25:57.Rory McIlroy says he's confident he can still reach the European tour's

:25:58. > :26:00.season finale in Dubai - but it will take a big performance in this

:26:01. > :26:04.week's World Golf Championship event in China. McIlroy and a handful of

:26:05. > :26:07.the world's best players were treated to this welcome in Shanghai.

:26:08. > :26:10.But there can be no room for distractions for the 24-year-old

:26:11. > :26:14.this week as he aims to salvage something from a season that's seen

:26:15. > :26:17.him slip from world number one to sixth in the rankings. He's 62nd on

:26:18. > :26:21.a European Tour money list which he won last season and needs a good

:26:22. > :26:29.finish if he's to guarantee a place in Dubai.

:26:30. > :26:35.I feel like my game is in good shape. Last week, I fund (it well.

:26:36. > :26:41.So if I can get other parts of my game back on track, and give myself

:26:42. > :26:50.opportunities, it looks good. McIlroy is paired with Luke Donald

:26:51. > :26:53.and Jason Dufner tomorrow. Thank you, Gavin. I think Rory

:26:54. > :27:00.McIlroy is on the verge of something big. Now, was it only me or did the

:27:01. > :27:06.temperatures feel like they were plummeting? Will you tell us?

:27:07. > :27:13.We have seen some lively showers during the day. Shell is working

:27:14. > :27:17.their way from west to east. This evening and tonight, it is a much

:27:18. > :27:21.drier picture. We are not without showers overnight but there will be

:27:22. > :27:29.confined to the north coast in the main. Temperatures dropping off

:27:30. > :27:32.quite markedly. So we head into Thursday, that Shari, blustery

:27:33. > :27:39.picture continues through the day. -- that showery blustery picture.

:27:40. > :27:44.The rain will come farther inland during the day tomorrow. The West

:27:45. > :27:51.and the North are going to bear the brunt of them. But it is not a

:27:52. > :27:56.uniform picture. The Southeast will get the best of any brightness. If

:27:57. > :28:03.you are out with the kids tomorrow night, the chance of a few showers

:28:04. > :28:07.in the early part of the evening. Temperatures dropping off overnight.

:28:08. > :28:14.Friday looks like the best day of the week to get out and about. It is

:28:15. > :28:28.going to be a dry day, a brighter day. The message really is to make

:28:29. > :28:32.the most of Friday because take a look at what is heading our way.

:28:33. > :28:36.This low pressure system has got some newspapers excited. There was

:28:37. > :28:41.nothing to suggest that it is any more than a regulation autumn storm

:28:42. > :28:44.but it sits over Ireland on Saturday. With wind and rain

:28:45. > :28:51.swirling around, things could get lively for us. So this is how things

:28:52. > :28:54.stack up over the next few days. We will see some showery, blustery

:28:55. > :29:00.conditions tomorrow and probably a better day by the time it gets to

:29:01. > :29:06.Thursday, and then the weekend will be a little bit wet and wild. For

:29:07. > :29:13.more information, check out the BBC weather website. Make the most of

:29:14. > :29:16.Friday, is the message. Not good news, Jeff!
