:01:47. > :01:50.McGuinness give this assessment. We all recognise that this is a very
:01:51. > :01:56.complex and wide-ranging negotiation, which is at a critical
:01:57. > :02:01.stage. We are not there yet, but I think if there is enough goodwill to
:02:02. > :02:06.push this over the line, then we certainly are very determined and
:02:07. > :02:12.Peter Robinson is determined also, and the other party leaders, to want

:02:56. > :02:59.other fires in the area, some as far back as the summer. The suspicions
:03:00. > :03:05.are, when we see the oil tank has been set on fire. Up to the last six
:03:06. > :03:09.in eight weeks we have been working with the police and the Housing
:03:10. > :03:15.executive in this area and we have had several incidents of this type.

:03:23. > :03:29.were called to the locker flats morning. The fire spread to four of
:03:30. > :03:33.the properties. A number of the residents were evacuated and remove

:03:39. > :03:45.already -- some have already been allowed to return. I was shocked,
:03:46. > :03:49.scared. Did not know what was going to happen. We did not know how the
:03:50. > :03:53.fire was going to spread. They needed to get more fire engines down
:03:54. > :03:58.to the estate to give it under control. It was pretty frightening.

:04:21. > :04:38.Before Ulster's game in Wales yesterday there was an act of
:04:39. > :04:44.remembrance. Ulster's opponents had a poppy on, the Ulster team did not.
:04:45. > :04:52.Some unionist politicians are angry about what happened. I am appalled.
:04:53. > :04:56.I regard it as a calculated snub to Remembrance Day. They choose to play
:04:57. > :05:01.on Remembrance Sunday, yet they chose, what looks like a corporate
:05:02. > :05:06.decision, to not have a poppy, as their opponents had come on their
:05:07. > :05:11.shirt. Ulster Rugby have defended their actions. In a statement they
:05:12. > :05:15.pointed out that they have this permanent war memorial as port at
:05:16. > :05:19.their stadium. In fact, the new Kingspan Stadium was built around it
:05:20. > :05:24.and every year at the players, management and coaches take part in
:05:25. > :05:29.a remembrance service here. To top English rugby teams played
:05:30. > :05:33.yesterday, Gloucester and wasps, they too had an act of remembrance
:05:34. > :05:36.but did not wear poppies. A former armoured from says they should not
:05:37. > :05:43.be criticised, neither should Ulster. It is unfair. Ulster Rugby
:05:44. > :05:49.did have a remembrance service, they did have a minute's silence before
:05:50. > :05:56.the match. Wearing a poppy is choice. People need to have choice
:05:57. > :06:01.if they want to wear one or not. Ulster making headlines on and off

:07:01. > :07:06.guest of honour at here tonight. Coming to an occasion like this, as
:07:07. > :07:10.it start to sink in, what you have achieved? It probably does. After
:07:11. > :07:14.the game against Greece we had to leave very quickly the next morning
:07:15. > :07:19.to go to Finland and all of our preparation was based around needing
:07:20. > :07:23.something in Finland. It was very important, the players were focused
:07:24. > :07:28.to try to win the group. They probably have not had time to enjoy
:07:29. > :07:32.it, really, as much as the could of done. This is the first time back in
:07:33. > :07:37.Northern Ireland since the Greece game. It does bring it home how much
:07:38. > :07:40.it means to everyone when you see the reaction of everybody in the
:07:41. > :07:46.room the night. They played the video we put together and it focuses
:07:47. > :07:51.on the whole campaign. It was nice to see that again, as well. The next
:07:52. > :07:55.big date is the draw. You must be looking forward to finding out who
:07:56. > :08:01.you will be playing. Yes, it will be exciting again. We are looking at
:08:02. > :08:08.training bases in France. Until the draw, it will ring at all to life,
:08:09. > :08:11.really, we can look at the opposition more closely. We will
:08:12. > :08:16.look at some friendly games. The excitement will build from then on
:08:17. > :08:18.in. Just a reminder, Friday night's game against Latvia is live on BBC
:08:19. > :08:33.Two Northern Ireland. We have some lively weather in the
:08:34. > :08:36.forecast. We will see some strong winds through the coming week. There

:08:42. > :08:48.be marked with a time of year, but Friday cold. It only briefly as
:08:49. > :08:53.becomes mild again on Saturday. Overnight, the winds will ease but
:08:54. > :08:57.it will still be breezy. There will be spells of rain and drizzle moving

:09:02. > :09:07.13 degrees. For tomorrow, more rain in the forecast. Not as windy as

:09:12. > :09:17.weather across the south and east with most of the rain for northern
:09:18. > :09:24.and western areas. The rain is also extending across the Republic of
:09:25. > :09:27.Ireland's, and the central and western Scotland. The north-east of
:09:28. > :09:33.Scotland will say that the more fresh. Cloudy and damp across
:09:34. > :09:40.Wales, and the South West of England. For many, it is a mild day.
:09:41. > :09:44.That includes us. Temperatures tomorrow afternoon and possibly up
