:00:31. > :00:34.At one point today, there were over 100 people waiting in the emergency

:00:53. > :00:56.developed because of pressures at the weekend. A union representing
:00:57. > :01:02.health care workers says the situation is stressful for staff. It
:01:03. > :01:07.is exhausting, morally and physically. They are doing their
:01:08. > :01:16.best for patients. Patient safety is the top priority. The Royal's
:01:17. > :01:19.emergency department became the centre of attention last month when
:01:20. > :01:26.the trust declared a major incident because of a backlog of patients.
:01:27. > :01:29.Today, the situation has eased but as of yet o'clock, there were 80

:01:42. > :01:44.closely. Two men have been charged in
:01:45. > :01:48.connection with an assault in north Belfast yesterday. A 24-year-old man
:01:49. > :01:52.is in a critical condition in hospital following an attack on a
:01:53. > :01:55.group of four men in the Antrim Road area. The police have tonight
:01:56. > :02:00.charged a 23-year-old man with attempted murder, assault, and
:02:01. > :02:03.several drugs charges. A 31-year-old man has been charged with causing

:02:13. > :02:15.families are having to rely on food parcels because months of bad
:02:16. > :02:32.weather has forced the fleet to stay in port. Now fishermen say they are
:02:33. > :02:39.at breaking point. This skipper has just arrived back
:02:40. > :02:45.from C. He took his boat out and it cost over ?200 for fuel. His entire
:02:46. > :02:50.hall is in one bag. This is our catch for today. The weather has
:02:51. > :02:58.been atrocious in the last four months. It is making it impossible
:02:59. > :03:01.for us to make any money. In bad weather, prawns burrow into the sea

:03:06. > :03:11.surfaced, but to the despair of local fishermen. This skipper has
:03:12. > :03:18.only been to see twice this year. Now he and others are having to rely
:03:19. > :03:23.on charity hand-outs. The indignity of having to go on television and
:03:24. > :03:27.say that people arguing for food vouchers. Fishermen are proud
:03:28. > :03:33.people, they don't want to have to do this. David is a fish processor,
:03:34. > :03:43.he buys the prawns from the fishermen for expert. This is all he
:03:44. > :03:49.got today. Today, is devastating and you can see for yourself how empty
:03:50. > :03:53.it is. One of the poignant images for me in this industry is to see
:03:54. > :03:57.these ones strong dignified men standing in a queue waiting for a
:03:58. > :04:04.hand-out from the fishermen 's mission. Like foreigners, they feel

:04:18. > :04:21.incident in which he was carried on the front of a police Land Rover in

:04:34. > :04:37.drink promotions must end. John Kelly's 19-year-old son drank a
:04:38. > :04:42.bottle and a half of wine and six shots of tequila at a club in the
:04:43. > :04:47.Odyssey in Belfast last 30. The teenager's cousin Joby Murphy died
:04:48. > :04:58.after a similar night out in 2012. BBC Newsline's Tara Mills has been
:04:59. > :05:05.talking to the father and son. Two dads who want an end to drinks
:05:06. > :05:08.promotions. Joby Murphy died after he fell into the river after a night
:05:09. > :05:12.out two years ago. His cousin ended up in hospital after attending a
:05:13. > :05:15.drinks commotion at the Box nightclub last Thursday. The
:05:16. > :05:26.19-year-old did not want to appear on camera. It was ?6 for a bottle of
:05:27. > :05:31.wine and ?1 for a shot. I should not have been drinking that much. There
:05:32. > :05:36.was no need for it. I took responsibility for the amount I
:05:37. > :05:39.drank, it was stupid. He collapsed outside the club and ended up with
:05:40. > :05:43.hypothermia. His dad says it could have been worse if he had not been
:05:44. > :05:50.taken to hospital when he was. I went down to the hospital and I
:05:51. > :05:57.opened the door and he was there, ice-cold, two drips into him, one
:05:58. > :06:01.for blood and one for fluid. Hypothermia blanket over him,
:06:02. > :06:07.unconscious. I could not get any sense out of him. I thought I had
:06:08. > :06:23.lost him. I thought, here we go again. I don't know what was going
:06:24. > :06:29.through my mind. It is down to cheap drink. Drinks promotions are regular
:06:30. > :06:33.here and the student says he was thrown out by the bouncers for being
:06:34. > :06:38.too drunk but management said they called the ambulance when he was
:06:39. > :06:44.found unconscious. On Thursday night, Friday morning, at last week,
:06:45. > :06:49.but the ones who reported the incident to the ambulance so I think
:06:50. > :06:54.it has been taken out of context incense of the timeline. I am happy
:06:55. > :07:00.that our staff had a Judy of care that night. The Odyssey has had its
:07:01. > :07:05.fair share of publicity surrounding events at the complex and allows
:07:06. > :07:08.couple of weeks. Those that run the Box nightclub said they are happy

:07:14. > :07:18.More than 200 jobs are being lost in Dungiven following the collapse of
:07:19. > :07:21.its largest employer. KPL which carried out work for utility firms

:07:29. > :07:32.the weekend, the administrators said the efforts to save the business had
:07:33. > :07:39.been unsuccessful. There have been calls for politicians to help the
:07:40. > :07:45.town. The time for tea and sympathy has
:07:46. > :07:49.passed, we need action. Places like this have struggled with maybe one
:07:50. > :07:56.factory going and then another. We are being told, we are doing all we
:07:57. > :07:59.can. Nothing ever happens. We see announcement after a announcement in
:08:00. > :08:03.Belfast and it seems there is not a level playing field.

:09:01. > :09:03.start. The low pressure will stay in control so there will be some

:09:19. > :09:22.largely dry and bright start of the day with some good spells of
:09:23. > :09:27.sunshine. Eventually the wet weather will push across affecting Scotland
