:00:50. > :00:53.They are going to be have -- have to be dealt with some time. There will
:00:54. > :01:00.be no further concessions on welfare cuts. People need to live up to

:02:12. > :02:16.they had a close in counter with a large seasonal visitor to our
:02:17. > :02:22.shores. -- four teenagers. It was meant to be a short hop to
:02:23. > :02:25.Scotland, but these teenagers got a lot more than they bargained for on
:02:26. > :02:34.their way back. They came face-to-face with a giant of the
:02:35. > :02:47.sea, a hump backed wail. He went underneath us! Oh, that's
:02:48. > :02:52.incredible! Back on shore, and several days on, the friends have
:02:53. > :03:06.had time to reflect on the encounter. I never expected to see
:03:07. > :03:13.something so -- like this so close. It's played all the water in the air
:03:14. > :03:19.and it went in our face, it was the worst smell I have ever smelt. What
:03:20. > :03:26.is the worst smell you have ever smelt? It was just a strong smell of
:03:27. > :03:30.fish. Humpback whales are not seen
:03:31. > :03:39.terribly often in local waters, but this sighting is one of a number in
:03:40. > :03:42.recent days. The Wales are coming from their breeding grounds of West
:03:43. > :03:47.Africa and heading up the coast towards the Artic. The reason they
:03:48. > :03:57.tend to hang around in our waters is quite simple, the food is good. --
:03:58. > :04:07.towards the Artic. The children enjoying the second day
:04:08. > :04:11.of the sweltering heat were also enjoying themselves. Their parents
:04:12. > :04:16.and grandparents were struggling to keep the sun's raise at bay. She
:04:17. > :04:22.will get a little bit cranky when it gets too warm, but when you have the
:04:23. > :04:30.little pool, you can call her down. If I saw this scene in Brittany, you
:04:31. > :04:37.look a bit French. What do you make of the weather?
:04:38. > :04:46.Fantastic. Is it more challenging to paint on a bright day or an overcast
:04:47. > :04:55.day? I have in my mind what sort of whether I'm going to be painting in
:04:56. > :05:01.any way. Whatever I want, I can make it, artist's licence.
:05:02. > :05:02.Like our weather forecasters expect I may come to regret that smart
:05:03. > :05:13.remark. The first day of the Commonwealth
:05:14. > :05:16.Games has drawn to a close. Stephen Watson?s been following
:05:17. > :05:18.the action for us in Glasgow. It's been a busy day for Team NI -
:05:19. > :05:26.and Northern Ireland has won In the Scottish Exhibition
:05:27. > :05:29.and Conference Centre behind me judo player Lisa Kearney took
:05:30. > :05:39.the bronze after a thrilling fight. It's the first judo medal at
:05:40. > :05:44.the Commonwealth Games since 2002. And the person who won 14
:05:45. > :06:08.years ago was here tonight. This is the moment she had been
:06:09. > :06:12.teaming of. -- dreaming of. The 25-year-old forced her opponent into
:06:13. > :06:20.submission with 32 seconds to -- remaining, to win the bronze medal.
:06:21. > :06:29.I am delighted. Kick-start the Commonwealth Games with a medal for
:06:30. > :06:36.Northern Ireland, and hopefully there will be a few more to follow.
:06:37. > :06:42.I think I performed well today. It was difficult to come back from a
:06:43. > :06:47.set back or a disappointment like that, to then come back and win a
:06:48. > :06:52.medal, so I am pleased I have the resilience to do that.
:06:53. > :07:00.She emulated Londonderry's Lisa Bradley, who was Northern Ireland's
:07:01. > :07:12.last medal winner 12 years ago. Judo is not a core sport, so these
:07:13. > :07:21.medals are very sought after. It is my first Championship, I have won a
:07:22. > :07:26.few big fights on the judo circuit, but I have never one a Championship
:07:27. > :07:29.medal. So Lisa wins Northern Ireland's
:07:30. > :07:31.first medal of the Commonwealth Games, and creates memories that
:07:32. > :07:36.will never be forgotten. Northern Ireland's young swimming
:07:37. > :07:38.team did well in the pool today. Three competitors made it into
:07:39. > :07:42.semifinals in tonight's session in Sycerika McMahon was
:07:43. > :07:49.the most impressive, coming second in her heat this
:07:50. > :07:53.morning to book a place in tonight's She finished fifth this evening,
:07:54. > :07:56.just four one-hundredths of a second outside
:07:57. > :07:59.the time needed to make the final. Gemma Kane in the 100 fly and
:08:00. > :08:01.Jordan Sloan in the 100 back also went out in their
:08:02. > :08:05.semis, but credit to the women?s 4 They came eighth in the final -
:08:06. > :08:09.but what an experience for a team including two 14-year-olds,
:08:10. > :08:15.Rachel Bethel and Danielle Hill. Northern Ireland athletes were
:08:16. > :08:18.involved in a handful Here's a roundup of the some
:08:19. > :08:39.of the rest of the action. Aileen Reid is a regular on the
:08:40. > :08:46.triathlon circuit, and hopes are high for another medal. After an
:08:47. > :08:52.impressive swim she was in the leading bunch for the cycle. She
:08:53. > :08:58.faded a little in the run as her trading -- training partner took the
:08:59. > :09:08.gold medal. Still, she finished in an excellent sixth place.
:09:09. > :09:14.The girls were running sold to shoulder, allowing me to stay in it
:09:15. > :09:18.comfortably. I am happy with everything I did.
:09:19. > :09:23.The netball team made a bit of history by playing their first ever
:09:24. > :09:27.match at the Games, and got off to a good start.
:09:28. > :09:31.But they were eventually well beaten by Malawi.
:09:32. > :09:35.Michael Craig went out in the singles of the men's squash, but
:09:36. > :09:41.Madelyn Terry made it through to the last 16.
:09:42. > :09:47.Brother and sister Sinead and Kiran Chambers are one of two sets of
:09:48. > :09:48.siblings in the badminton team, but Northern Ireland lost five mil to
:09:49. > :09:52.England. In lawn bowls Northern Ireland's
:09:53. > :09:55.teams won three but lost four in Finally, football,
:09:56. > :09:58.and a challenging night Linfield lost 2-0 to AIK Solna
:09:59. > :10:03.and went out 2-1 on aggregate. Crusaders drew 1-1 tonight
:10:04. > :10:05.but go out 5-1 on aggregate, Derry are also out, after
:10:06. > :10:09.a 6-1 aggregate defeat in Belarus. Now here's Cecilia Daly with
:10:10. > :10:37.a look at the weather forecast Once again today has turned out for
:10:38. > :10:42.hottest day of 2014 so far. -- the hottest day. It is going to cool
:10:43. > :10:47.down this weekend, meaning another very warm night ahead. A little bit
:10:48. > :10:51.more comfortable in the countryside, but in Belfast it may not get much
:10:52. > :10:57.lower than 16 or 17 degrees in the city centre. Temperatures rising
:10:58. > :11:02.quickly tomorrow, and plenty of sunshine to come. Perhaps some early
:11:03. > :11:09.morning mist, that should learn down fairly quickly. Lots of sunshine
:11:10. > :11:14.around right through the morning. A similar story from many parts of
:11:15. > :11:18.Britain and all and, you can see the mist and fog close to the north and
:11:19. > :11:26.east of Scotland. -- written and Ireland. Very few showers around,
:11:27. > :11:39.maybe one or two against -- across south-west Arlen. -- Southwest
:11:40. > :11:43.Ardent. -- Ireland. On Friday night things start to
:11:44. > :11:50.change, and on Saturday showers will move south eastwards. We are
:11:51. > :11:53.expecting fresh air to move in for Saturday night, winds moving in to
:11:54. > :12:24.One, two, three, four. Here they come!
