:00:20. > :00:22.The initiative was announced by the Secretary of State, Theresa

:01:11. > :01:16.Secretary of State also said that the talks process should be time
:01:17. > :01:19.limited. It all makes sense to set ourselves the deadline. The closer
:01:20. > :01:27.we get to the general election, the more difficult it is to find common
:01:28. > :01:33.ground. Her intervention comes after she faced criticism from the Labour
:01:34. > :01:36.Party and SDLP, who claimed the government has been detached from
:01:37. > :01:40.the political process in recent months. The precise nature of these
:01:41. > :01:44.talks will become clear after the Secretary of State has held
:01:45. > :01:45.discussions with the five main parties and the Irish

:02:51. > :02:58.people gathered at the plural in Belfast to reflect and remember. In
:02:59. > :03:03.a written message, Prince Charles paid tribute to police officers
:03:04. > :03:07.across the UK killed while on duty. The Prince highlighted what he
:03:08. > :03:12.called the enormous sacrifices made by the RUC and PSN eye. He said
:03:13. > :03:21.their bravery would never be forgotten. Among the Stormont
:03:22. > :03:25.politicians at the event was the justice minister. He said the police
:03:26. > :03:33.don't always get the credit which they deserve. Police officers are
:03:34. > :03:38.seen as a normal part of society but on a day like today, you remember
:03:39. > :03:40.the challenges that face police officers and difficulties and
:03:41. > :03:46.dangers they put themselves into everyday and that applies to every
:03:47. > :03:50.part of the UK but particularly acute in Northern Ireland. After the
:03:51. > :03:53.service, some of the families of police officers who died were given
:03:54. > :04:01.the opportunity to meet the Prince of Wales. He listened to their
:04:02. > :04:07.stories and offered his sympathy. That means an awful lot and the fact
:04:08. > :04:18.he said he was honoured to meet me... I felt it was me that was
:04:19. > :04:21.honoured to meet him. The prince said society owes police officers
:04:22. > :04:32.and their families an immense debt of gratitude. Families were moved
:04:33. > :04:35.from their homes last night after a bomb was found. It was discovered

:05:47. > :05:52.scintillating form as well. He showed exactly why he is the
:05:53. > :05:58.world's best player. He produced a golfing masterclass on the greens to
:05:59. > :06:03.beat American Rickie Fowler. Rory McIlroy becomes the first golfer
