That's it for now. We're back with the late news | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Good evening. The Linfield manager David Jeffrey has announced that | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
he's to leave his job at the end of the season. A number of restaurants | :00:13. | :00:20. | |
and shops had to be evacuated last night. It started in the kitchen of | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
the bistro bar. The restaurant was busy for Valentines Day and night, | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
no one was injured. It took 40 firefighters three hours to bring | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
the blaze under control. Police say they don't believe the fire was | :00:33. | :00:41. | |
started deliberately. The Linfield manager David Jeffrey has announced | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
that he's to leave his job at the end of the season. He was appointed | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
manager in January 1997, and to date has led the team to nine league | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
titles and seven Irish Cups. Nial Foster reports from Windsor Park. | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
The news that David Jeffrey's 17 year reign here at Windsor Park came | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
like a bolt from the blue when it was announced on the Linfield | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
website, shortly before the fixture this afternoon. It also came as a | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
surprise for Linfield fans. I'm shocked because he's doing a | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
wonderful job. I don't see who is going to come in and replace them. | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
He's a lovely man through and through, in his playing days and his | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
days at manager and the trophies he has one, there's nobody better than | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
him. He's done the job. The record has been fantastic. The success he | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
has brought a Linfield has been enormous. I don't think they will | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
replace NEC. Speaking after the match, he wouldn't be drawn on the | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
matter. I've made the decision, and it was important that I communicated | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
that early. But my focus and my only focus is trying to wrestle the | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
Gibson cup back to Linfield football club. So if you don't mind, I will | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
talk about my decision at the end of the year. There's no doubt it feels | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
like the end of an era for the Blues. More than 30 local residents | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
have held a demonstration against plans by Queen's University to build | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
new accommodation in South Belfast. The application to house foreign | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
students there is currently under consideration. Dan Stanton has more | :02:12. | :02:21. | |
details. Voting with their feet, these local residents are opposed to | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
plans to knock down this large house and replace it with flats for just | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
over 150 students. We've got a total of 2200 in the village. This would | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
create another student village. We would be sandwiched in between. It | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
is not students but the concentration of students in this | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
area that causes the problems. Even just this week past, I've been woken | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
twice in the middle of the night by noisy students coming up the road. I | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
am a conservation architect by profession. I am an adviser in | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
conservation issues. If these buildings, original buildings, are | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
demolished and replaced, then the whole raison d'etre of having a | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
conservation area is undermined. It will be destroying the suburban | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
town/ -- townscape, the gardens, the hedges. The application is currently | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
being considered. A decision is expected soon. Queen's have already | :03:24. | :03:31. | |
modified their plans but say accommodation is needed for foreign | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
students to study here in the city. The controversial subject of | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
euthanasia is the hard-hitting topic of a play which premiers at the | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
Opera house in Belfast later this month. Assisted suicide, a subject | :03:46. | :03:56. | |
of great debate at home and abroad. The thorny issue is brought home to | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
Northern Ireland when a young journalist returns from London to | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
Belfast to find his father, Tom, is terminally ill. He wants to end his | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
life, his family have other ideas. It raises those questions, everybody | :04:10. | :04:18. | |
sometimes would say, if that ever happens to me, put something in my | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
tea. With Tom, it is a situation where it happens to him so he has to | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
face the reality of that. The writer drew upon personal experience and | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
then developed the play with others. The end result is this. It is | :04:32. | :04:38. | |
looking at assisted suicide and euthanasia. It's a really difficult | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
topic but the rate -- the way it does it is really accessible. I was | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
attracted to not only fantastic stage action but also through live | :04:47. | :04:53. | |
interviews we've recorded and performed or played during the | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
production. I think the playwright has written a very compassionate | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
play, a very intelligent play. It is a serious subject. Yes, it has every | :05:02. | :05:09. | |
right to be on stage. Produced by Accidental Theatre, the play opens | :05:10. | :05:17. | |
on the 25th. Let's see if the rain is going to continue tonight and | :05:18. | :05:19. | |
tomorrow. We had a few showers today but most | :05:20. | :05:28. | |
of those are dying out. As temperatures fall, we do have a | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
warning for ice forming in some untreated areas tonight and into | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
tomorrow morning. Most of the showers will clear away, so largely | :05:37. | :05:48. | |
dry night. The chilly start to Sunday but overall it's not going to | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
be to buy the day. Plenty of good weather for getting outdoors. The | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
chilly start, some mist and fog around which lifts quite quickly. | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
Elsewhere, it's a much better picture right across Britain. | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
Certainly a well-deserved, better, brighter, sunny day to enjoy. Across | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
Ireland it is going to turn increasingly cloudy and wet, as the | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
next system pushes up. It brings rain at first and eventually pushes | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
northwards for everyone. Tomorrow evening will cloud over but staying | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
largely dry. It won't be until tomorrow evening that we see the | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
next rain coming into parts of the West. An unsettled picture into | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
Monday. The new week getting off to an unsettled start. Spells of rain, | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
rather cloudy but the winds change direction, they'll be coming from | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
the south. We will keep you updated on all the weather on BBC News line | :06:45. | :06:54. | |
and on our Twitter page. We will be back tomorrow evening. In the | :06:55. | :07:02. | |
meantime, you can keep up to date with local news on BBC Radio Ulster | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
