in advance of the general election. That is all | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
This is BBC Newsline. Tonight's top stories: | :00:00. | :00:17. | |
The PSNI has refused to reveal information to the Police Ombudsman | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
about the bomb attack on Constable Peadar Heffron. | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
There's Unionist anger as Orangemen are prevented from parading | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
Muslim leaders say it's time to move on after the public apology | :00:28. | :00:34. | |
There are 33,000 uninsured drivers in Northern Ireland. I'll be looking | :00:35. | :00:49. | |
at new proposals to clamp down on defenders. Motorcyclists Michael | :00:50. | :00:55. | |
Dunlop wins again at the Isle of Man TT races. A cool and cloudy day | :00:56. | :01:02. | |
tomorrow, maybe a little warmer than today. | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
Last night we revealed that the Police Ombudsman is taking the Chief | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
Constable to court in an effort to get access to secret police files | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Tonight we can report that the Ombudsman is investigating | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
whether police acted on information it was given before | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
a dissident republican bomb attack that seriously injured Constable | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
Michael Maguire wants to find out if there was appropriate action | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
after the tip-off, but so far the police haven't allowed | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
Our home affairs correspondent Vincent Kearney reports. | :01:34. | :01:45. | |
As captain of the PSNI's gaelic football team | :01:46. | :01:47. | |
and an Irish speaker, Paedar Heffron - seen here on the left - was | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
a high-profile target for dissident republicans aiming to deter | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
Three and a half years ago, he was critically injured | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
When a bomb exploded under his car as he left his home near | :02:01. | :02:14. | |
Randalstown. The Police Ombudsman later received a tip-off claiming | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
that someone had warned the PSI on a potential attack on an unnamed | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
officer. It may be that the warning was so minimal that nothing could | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
have been done to minimise the attack on the officer. There is so | :02:29. | :02:35. | |
little detail that the Police Ombudsman cannot reach any | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
conclusions, in effect he is no wiser than any of us. | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
The police have also refused to give information to Ombudsman | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
investigators probing the death of senior Sinn Fein official | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
Denis Donaldson, who was also a police and MI5 informer. | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
He was shot dead at this remote family cottage in Donegal in 2006. | :02:52. | :02:59. | |
He had fled there after being told the media would expose his role as | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
an agent. The ombudsman is investigating claims by his family | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
at PSNI officers may have exposed him as an agent. It is the kind of | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
information Michael Maguire yesterday said his office is eager | :03:13. | :03:14. | |
to get to. This gets to the core | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
of independence, it gets to those who are subjects of | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
investigation will determine what The PSNI said it has responsibility | :03:23. | :03:39. | |
for all information it holds and it cannot release that information if | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
it may in danger lives. The ombudsman and investigations have | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
top security clearance, which means they can have access to sensitive | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
intelligence material. Michael Maguire says because of that, the | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
PSNI has no legitimate in recent -- reason to re-fused to provide the | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
information he asked for. Justice Minister David forward says he hopes | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
it is not too late with the two sides to agree. It is important the | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
two agencies get together and resolve these issues rather than | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
have to have a judge decide for them. I have been told if any | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
material has come back from the police to the ombudsman so I hope | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
that will be a basis for discussions. The Chief Constable | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
will comment at a public meeting on the Policing Board tomorrow. | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
A number of families affected by the controversy have called | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
on the Chief Constable to hand over all the files which the | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
BBC Newsline's Mark Simpson now reports on the reaction to | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
The killings at the centre of this controversy stretch back to the | :04:46. | :04:54. | |
height of the Troubles. Among the 60 different cases is the murder of | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
Sinn Fein's Tommy Casey in Cookstown in 1990. At that time there were | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
claims of security force collusion in the killing. Almost a quarter of | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
a century later, some files remain secret in the Casey family believe | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
the Police Ombudsman has been let down by the police. He should have | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
got the materials he asked for. Why are they holding back this, what are | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
they hiding? They are supposed to be the law of the land as it is, that | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
we are supposed to live under and live by. Where do you go from here? | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
These cases require an effective investigation and a refusal by the | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
PSNI to hand over information relating to these investigations is | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
outrageous. Complaints were raised about the police investigation into | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
the at Sean Graham bookmakers on the former road, but it is among cases | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
where the ombudsman believes police may be holding back vital | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
information. I spoke to the family of one man who died here, and they | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
appealed to Matt Baggott to hand over the files. They said if he | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
didn't do it, they hoped his successor would win he takes over as | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
Chief Constable this year. But the police say they have acted within | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
the law. The stand-off continues and it seems a court battle is looming. | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
The Orange Order has again been told it can't march | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
along a contentious stretch of the Crumlin road in north Belfast. | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
It had applied to the Parades Commission to walk | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
The Ligoneil Orangemen have been trying to complete | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
their parade back-up the Crumlin Road to their Orange Hall | :06:38. | :06:46. | |
Today's decision once again stopping them doing that came | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
Means the Orangemen in two bands determination | :06:50. | :07:03. | |
Means the Orangemen in two bands will not get this far up the | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
Woodvale Road, they will be stopped there, which means the parade itself | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
cannot come up past Ardoyne shops on Ligoniel Orange Hall. Meanwhile the | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
loyalist protest camp here at Twaddell Avenue continues. | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
The Parades Commission's determination | :07:21. | :07:35. | |
It stressed the level of tension since the parade was stopped. | :07:36. | :07:50. | |
We are disgusted and saddened that the threat of violence I dissident | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
republicans could stop us in our freedom of expression. These issues | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
need to be resolved and I believe they can be resolved so I understand | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
it determination causes hurt on one side and the next one might be | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
different, the one after that might be different again. We need to get | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
beyond that. Getting beyond that is the mediators have been seeking, so | :08:19. | :08:18. | |
far without success. A man's been arrested | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
after a woman's body was found You're watching BBC Newsline, | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
and still ahead A round-the-world yachtsman sends | :08:27. | :08:37. | |
a transatlantic message to pupils The Deputy First Minister is | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
visiting the Islamic Centre in Belfast this evening, | :08:42. | :08:51. | |
24 hours after the First Minister. Peter Robinson used his first visit | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
to the centre to make a public apology over controversial | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
remarks he made last week. The remarks were made as he sought | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
to defend controversial comments made about Islam and Muslims | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
by Belfast Pastor James McConnell. Our political correspondent | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
Martina Purdy has this report. It looked like an ordinary social | :09:09. | :09:22. | |
call but the purpose of this meeting was to end controversy and heal | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
relations with Muslims. Peter Robinson received a warm welcome on | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
his first visit to the Islamic Centre. He pledged it wouldn't be | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
his last and apologised for the offence his remarks had caught. The | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
last thing I would ever have on my mind would be to cause anyone hurt | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
or distress or to insult them, and I make that publicly clear in the | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
clearest possible terms, and I also pointed out that not only did I | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
apologise to these gentlemen at our last meeting, I went out and | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
publicly apologised them. I cannot spend the rest of my life | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
apologising. I can spend the rest of my life building the United Kingdom | :10:06. | :10:12. | |
-- community I believe we won. It was clear both leaders wanted to | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
move on. We have heard the First Minister apologise and I think we | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
have to draw a line under this issue. We need to think about moving | :10:23. | :10:32. | |
for. But not everyone was satisfied. It is something that will take a | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
long time to repair, even members standing behind say they are not | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
happy. You don't think he has gone far enough tonight? No, he was | :10:43. | :10:49. | |
talking about freedom of speech and this is an open society, and we | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
accept and I wonder what would happen at the same sermon was given | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
by an e-mail here in a mosque, I'm sure a lot of politicians would be | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
facing the media for a good score. He challenged Peter Robinson over | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
his support for Pastor McConnell. It is not the role of any politician to | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
give final opinions. It would be wrong for me to do that. I am not a | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
theologian, I cannot give a view, but I say people have a right to | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
free speech but everyone who has that right, whether they are in | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
politics, whether they are pillars of society or the press, they must | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
exercise that right with responsibility and care. The Deputy | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
First Minister's visit here this evening does seem a little odd for a | :11:38. | :11:44. | |
joint office, but it shows both men are focused on the issues, including | :11:45. | :11:45. | |
financial support. A former head of the team | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
of detectives set up to investigate unsolved killings says he believes | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
the Hyde Park bomb suspect Dave Cox, who stepped down from the | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
Historical Enquiries Team last year, was giving evidence to a Westminster | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
committee of MPs investigating the Government's scheme for dealing | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
with so-called on-the-runs. The scheme only came to light | :12:06. | :12:08. | |
when the trial of Mr Downey for the 1982 IRA Hyde Park bombing | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
was halted when it was revealed he had mistakenly received | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
a letter saying he was not wanted In your opinion, has Mr Downey, for | :12:16. | :12:32. | |
both the UDR murders in the Hyde Park murders, in your opinion, has | :12:33. | :12:39. | |
he been very lucky and got away with murder? I might ask him what lottery | :12:40. | :12:50. | |
numbers he picked. That is a yes? Yes. | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
Two friends of a girl who a Belfast musician is accused | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
of having underage sex with have told his trial about their shock at | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
One girl said her friend first told her about her alleged relationship | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
with Francis McPeake after she saw them acting inappropriately | :13:09. | :13:10. | |
Another said she witnessed the two kissing in a car. | :13:11. | :13:17. | |
The defendant, who's 72, denies 12 charges of child sex abuse | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
Tributes have been paid to a disabled Newry man who was killed | :13:23. | :13:36. | |
after his electric wheelchair was in collision with a car. | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
The accident happened yesterday afternoon. | :13:40. | :13:41. | |
Here's our reporter in the South East, Gordon Adair. | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
Mr Chambers was a well-known character here in Newry. He was a | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
foot all couch and played in a band, all despite having lost his | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
lower limbs because of diabetes some years ago. He was a resident here in | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
McManus caught and travelled to the city centre every day. His fellow | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
residents say he had spoken to them of his concerns about using an | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
electric wheelchair in traffic but that he found it impossible to use | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
that that Bass. Ironically he was on what should have been the relative | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
safety of the footpath outside his home when this accident happens -- | :14:22. | :14:31. | |
footpaths. He was trapped when a car apparently mounted the pavement. | :14:32. | :14:33. | |
His friends say his unshakeable positive mood was | :14:34. | :14:35. | |
He had the same attitude all the time, cheerful and chirpy for all | :14:36. | :14:44. | |
his handicaps. Sometimes you would think of them -- look at him and | :14:45. | :14:56. | |
think how is he so cheerful? Another resident was one of the first on the | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
scene. He had gone to the hospital, we were hoping for the best, but the | :15:01. | :15:08. | |
worst happen. The driver of the car was also hurt. His injuries are not | :15:09. | :15:09. | |
thought to be life-threatening. Friday marks the 70th anniversary | :15:10. | :15:19. | |
of the D-Day landings in Normandy, an important battle in France | :15:20. | :15:21. | |
during World War Two. On tomorrow and Friday evening's | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
programme, Donna talks to two of the few local veterans still alive | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
to recall the events of that day. Tomorrow we hear from Bill | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
Eames who is 91 years old. He was an RAF pilot and honoured | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
for his gallantry. And on and particular type of | :15:35. | :15:54. | |
person? I don't think so. I don't think I was any better than anybody | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
else. You are just lucky, that is the thing. | :16:00. | :16:01. | |
More on that interview tomorrow at 6.30pm here on BBC One. | :16:02. | :16:08. | |
Still to come. Michael Dunlop clutches a hat-trick of wins at the | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
Isle of Man TT. 33,000 people driving are | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
driving without insurance here. Now Stormont plans to target them | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
with the threat of ?100 fines. The minister Mark H Durkan says it | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
could cut the cost of insurance Of | :16:22. | :16:34. | |
the one million vehicles currently driving on Northern Ireland's roads, | :16:35. | :16:36. | |
it's thought about 33,000 are uninsured, costing law abiding | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
motorists an estimated ?15-?30 pounds a year on their premiums. | :16:43. | :16:44. | |
Now the Department of the Environment wants to clamp | :16:45. | :16:46. | |
down on offenders. Motorist driving without insurance | :16:47. | :16:55. | |
are more likely to be involved in accidents, and are also often guilty | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
of other offences as well, such as driving without an MOT and sometimes | :17:01. | :17:10. | |
without licences. Under these new laws, it will become an offence to | :17:11. | :17:12. | |
own an insurance -- and an down on offenders. | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
not just to drive one. People without insurance would be | :17:17. | :17:18. | |
tracked down and threatened with a ?100 fine and, | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
if they still failed to pay up, they'd face a court appearance and a | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
?1,000 fine and their vehicle could be clamped, seized and destroyed. | :17:26. | :17:27. | |
But would that force people to pay up? | :17:28. | :17:29. | |
insured car a hundred known threat in this day and age, if you're | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
staring down being a six or ?700 premium, I don't think ?100 is a | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
stern enough action. I think the monetary value should be higher. | :17:42. | :17:51. | |
Yes, the initial fine is ?100. That is how to tackle this, to hit people | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
where it hurts. People might soon realised that after a feud finds, | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
they are better off paying their insurance. | :18:01. | :18:02. | |
people to pay up? A public consultation | :18:03. | :18:04. | |
on the proposed scheme started today and runs until the end of July. | :18:05. | :18:06. | |
Andy West, BBC Newsline. The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh | :18:07. | :18:13. | |
are to visit Northern Ireland later this month. King and palaces the | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
royal couple will be here for a series of public engagements between | :18:18. | :18:19. | |
the 23rd and 25th of June. Londonderry is preparing to welcome | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
home the Clipper Round the World Yachts who're taking part | :18:23. | :18:24. | |
in the mammoth 40,000 mile race. It was an emotional return | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
for the local crew two years ago and thousands are again expected | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
at a big Maritime Festival later The skipper of the local boat, | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
which is currently in New York, has linked up with pupils | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
at his old school to share Here's our North-West reporter, | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
Keiron Tourish. The crew | :18:41. | :18:51. | |
of the Derry-Londonderry-Doire boat are in buoyant mood now that they | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
know they'll soon be setting off on their journey home. | :18:56. | :18:57. | |
They've faced raging storms and experienced stunning scenery and | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
even had a crew member overboard for 90 minutes before a dramatic rescue. | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
But now all the focus is on coming home. | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
Before that the skipper, Sean McCarter, lowered his sail in New | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
York to have a webchat with pupils at his former school Foyle College. | :19:14. | :19:20. | |
How many miles have you travelled so far? 38,000 miles, I think, at the | :19:21. | :19:30. | |
moment, that's what we have on the clock. Where is the best place you | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
have been so far? I had never been to China before, and it was quite an | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
eye-opener. It was a completely different culture. What is your most | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
favourite thing you are looking forward to, coming back? Certainly | :19:45. | :19:53. | |
in the last race, people are still talking about the excitement of | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
coming home. I keep telling the crew it will be massive. | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
at his former school Foyle College. Twelve 70 foot ocean racing yachts | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
are taking part in the Clipper round the world yacht race | :20:06. | :20:07. | |
which started in London last July. It has 670 sailors | :20:08. | :20:10. | |
representing 40 nations. They've been to Brazil, | :20:11. | :20:12. | |
South Africa, Australia, China and America. | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
I think it will be a difficult challenge, because you go through a | :20:16. | :20:22. | |
lot of highs and lows. China and America. | :20:23. | :20:28. | |
This Saturday the local crew will set off from their base in New York | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
for the journey home to Derry. They are expected to arrive here | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
on or around the 21st of June. In all they will cover 2850 miles. | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
To coincide with the return of the Clipper Round The World Yachts, | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
there will be a major Maritime Festival starting here on the 21st | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
of June. Or nine days, the foil will be the focus for books of all shapes | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
and sizes, and there will be food and | :20:55. | :20:55. | |
Michael Dunlop has been untouchable on two wheels at the Isle of Man TT | :20:56. | :21:01. | |
Michael Dunlop thought about quitting the sport earlier | :21:02. | :21:14. | |
but had a change of heart, signed with a new team | :21:15. | :21:17. | |
and today completed a remarkable hat-trick of Isle of Man TT wins. | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
He followed up yesterday's Superstock victory with | :21:21. | :21:22. | |
a dominant display in the second Supersport race. | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
The 25-year-old from Ballymoney led from start to | :21:26. | :21:28. | |
finish to win by 10 seconds from New Zealander Bruce Anstey. | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
Michael's brother William Dunlop was third. | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
Michael now boasts ten career TT wins, and has the opportunity to | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
equal or better his tally of four victories last year when he competes | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
Boxer Carl Frampton will fight for a world title this September | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
He will take on Spaniard Kiko Martinez for the | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
The outdoor venue is still to be confirmed. | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
We understand Balmoral Showgrounds beside the Kings Hall is | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
This could be Carl Framptons time to shine. | :22:02. | :22:10. | |
But it has on taken a huge fight purse to convince Kiko | :22:11. | :22:12. | |
Martinez to defend his title here. this year this will attract an | :22:13. | :22:23. | |
enormous audience, and it has the potential to put 20,000 in there. 15 | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
or 20,000 wouldn't surprise me at all. The Kings Hall has been | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
suggested, or 20,000 wouldn't surprise me at | :22:32. | :22:33. | |
all. The Kings Hall has is that still an option? Your Mac the Kings | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
Hall is too small, the Odyssey is too small. | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
Martinez to defend his title here. The spaniard Martinez feels he has | :22:45. | :22:46. | |
unfinished business with Frampton after the belfast boxer knocked him | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
out at the Odyssey 16 months ago. I think he doesn't like me, I | :22:50. | :22:59. | |
genuinely believe that. On my part, it is a laugh. I don't think he | :23:00. | :23:06. | |
likes me, no. I don't mind the guy, I respect him. It is tough to get in | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
the ring, let alone go home a champion. But there is going to be a | :23:11. | :23:18. | |
lot of tension. He is a hothead, and he will see a lot of both things. | :23:19. | :23:27. | |
That is just the hype. Unbeaten as a professional, this is undoubtedly | :23:28. | :23:33. | |
the biggest challenge of his career. Victor in 19 would make him a world | :23:34. | :23:35. | |
champion. Ireland's rugby players have had a | :23:36. | :23:47. | |
couple of days to get acclimatised in Argentina ahead of this | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
Saturday's test against the Pumas. The squad | :23:52. | :23:53. | |
which contains seven Ulstermen had a light work out in Buenos Aires | :23:54. | :23:55. | |
at the aptly named Hurling Club Despite the fact that Argentina | :23:56. | :23:59. | |
will be without their European based players Ireland know the two | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
test series will be demanding. They will be a very tough team to | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
play. They are a different element. I expect nothing less of them. It | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
will be quite an intimidating atmosphere to go into. It is a | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
challenge that most of the lads are looking forward to. We are looking | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
forward to taking a fume steps as a team, so that is our challenge. | :24:24. | :24:26. | |
We'll stay in South America and move from Argentina to Chile, | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
where Northern Ireland are in friendly action | :24:30. | :24:30. | |
It's Northern Ireland's second game of their tour | :24:31. | :24:35. | |
after a fine defensive display resulted in a creditable 1-0 defeat | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
Manager Michael O'Neill will make a late call whether to play | :24:40. | :24:42. | |
Conor McLaughlin, and uncapped teenager Liam Donnelly | :24:43. | :24:45. | |
The match kicks off at 1.00am tomorrow morning and we'll have | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
We'll have the weather forecast in a moment. | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
But first, people around Lough Neagh were treated to | :24:57. | :24:59. | |
This waterspout formed during a thunderstorm | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
and was caught on camera by a number of BBC Newsline viewers. | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
The waterspouts occur when funnel clouds touch down on water. | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
When they touch down on land, they become a tornado. | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
Always quite a thing to see. Always dramatic. Absolutely fantastic | :25:16. | :25:36. | |
pictures. It has been a bit of an unexciting day to day in terms of | :25:37. | :25:39. | |
weather. As we go into this evening, it will be dry, if a little | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
cool. As we go through the evening, any showers will die away. Tomorrow, | :25:46. | :25:51. | |
we will have some rain working its way in. Temperatures could be down | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
to 56 Celsius in some places. A bit warmer than that along the coast. -- | :25:56. | :26:03. | |
five or six Celsius. Quite a cloudy feel tomorrow, a feud showers | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
around. As we go through the day, we will see a bit more in the way of | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
brighter conditions. That will help with the temperatures, so as we go | :26:15. | :26:20. | |
through the day, we could see 15 or 16 Celsius. That is better than to | :26:21. | :26:27. | |
day. A feud showers always a possibility as we go through the | :26:28. | :26:30. | |
day, but generally it will feel a good bit brighter. 70 years to day, | :26:31. | :26:41. | |
weather forecasters made one of the biggest decisions ever. They decided | :26:42. | :26:47. | |
to delay the D Day landings. A few want to normal or about that big | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
decision, there is a special feature on the BBC website. I will tweak a | :26:52. | :26:57. | |
link to that shortly. They made all of those decisions without | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
temperatures and satellites. Our temperatures are showing that we | :27:03. | :27:05. | |
have a low pressure system heading in for Saturday and Friday. It means | :27:06. | :27:11. | |
that Friday will not be a bad day, certainly a bit warmer. It looks | :27:12. | :27:17. | |
like the rain will be coming in over on Friday into Saturday, and | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
Saturday might be quite reasonable. Make the most of the next few days, | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
because there is certainly more rain in the forecast for the weekend. | :27:26. | :27:31. | |
Thank you. We are back at 10:25pm. Join me for that. You can also keep | :27:32. | :27:37. | |
in touch via Facebook and Twitter. Have a very good evening. Goodbye. | :27:38. | :27:44. |
