:02:14. > :02:17.was such. She says she challenged an officer about Howard's alleged

:02:18. > :02:22.status, and claims he said I hold my hands up. She added, that's why they

:02:23. > :02:28.put him in my house, to keep an eye on him. Me and my daughter are

:02:29. > :02:32.scapegoats for CID. Arlene Arkinson was last seen being driven away in

:02:33. > :02:37.the early hours of the morning by Robert Howard after they had gone to

:02:38. > :02:44.a disco in bond or run with Donna Quinn and her then boyfriend. Her

:03:25. > :03:28.biggest question of her life. Patricia Quinn also denied being in

:03:29. > :03:32.a relationship with Robert Howard, and said they were just friends.

:03:33. > :03:36.Even though when he stayed in her house, he would sleep in her bed.

:03:37. > :03:41.She said he wasn't even interested in her, he was more interested in

:03:42. > :03:44.young girls in uniforms. The hearing continues next week.

:03:45. > :03:48.A man accused of murdering 29 people in the Real IRA bomb attack in Omagh

:03:49. > :03:52.in 1998 has appeared in person for the first time for a court

:03:53. > :03:57.A district judge is deciding if there is enough evidence

:03:58. > :04:00.for the case against 45-year-old Seamus Daly from Jonesborough

:04:01. > :04:04.in County Armagh to proceed to a Crown Court trial.

:04:05. > :04:19.Seamus Daly who was originally from County Monaghan was arrested in

:04:20. > :04:23.April 2014, and until now all his magistrate court hearings have been

:04:24. > :04:26.via a video from prison. He was today brought to the town

:04:27. > :04:32.courthouse. He is charged with the murders of 29 people in Omagh on the

:04:33. > :04:35.15th of August 19 98. He also faces charges of causing the explosion,

:04:36. > :04:42.and expressing -- possessing the bomb. And further charges relating

:04:43. > :04:48.to another dissident bomb plot in Lisburn in 1998. Some of his

:04:49. > :04:53.relatives sat just a few feet away from him. During the court

:04:54. > :04:57.proceedings, the judge will hear from witnesses and decide whether

:04:58. > :05:02.there is enough evidence for a Crown Court trial. After his arrest,

:05:03. > :05:04.Seamus Daly gave police a statement, denying any involvement. His lawyers

:05:05. > :05:10.have argued that the case against him his week, and much of his

:05:11. > :05:12.evidence -- the evidence is discreditable.

:05:13. > :05:15.The death of a homeless man in the centre of Belfast last night

:05:16. > :05:18.- the third to die in three weeks - prompted an urgent meeting

:05:19. > :05:21.at the City Hall to try to deal with the issue, before

:05:22. > :05:25.The problem was raised at a meeting of the Executive today

:05:26. > :05:27.and the Social Development Minister has promised to investigate

:05:28. > :05:30.BBC Newsline's Mark Simpson is in the city centre

:05:31. > :05:44.Tara, it's another very cold night here in the city centre. The

:05:45. > :05:49.temperature can't be much above zero, and it was exactly the same

:05:50. > :05:53.this time last night, and I was around this time when that homeless

:05:54. > :05:59.man's body was found in that doorway beside me. This is right in the

:06:00. > :06:02.heart of the city, Cornmarket there, high Street there, Royal Avenue

:06:03. > :06:05.there, and I have been trying to find out today why this just keeps

:06:06. > :06:11.happening in the heart of Belfast city centre. At the scene of the

:06:12. > :06:15.latest tragedy, a plea for help. They call for action in Belfast, to

:06:16. > :06:20.try to stop homelessness was that the message is we aren't doing

:06:21. > :06:23.enough, we can do better than this. There are endless empty buildings

:06:24. > :06:26.everywhere you look in Belfast, and if you look up you see them, if you

:06:27. > :06:29.look down you see people sitting on the streets, and we need to pull

:06:30. > :06:35.together and work together and create a Caecina bull solution. --

:06:36. > :06:39.sustainable solution. The man dead last night was in his 40s, and found

:06:40. > :06:43.in a city centre doorway just after seven o'clock. It was a cold and

:06:44. > :06:47.lonely death will stop but the early indications are that his sudden

:06:48. > :06:52.death wasn't a direct result of the freezing temperatures will stop the

:06:53. > :06:58.person that has lost his life, did have accommodation, and we can't

:06:59. > :07:04.understand why he wasn't in it. Yesterday evening. Furthermore, my

:07:05. > :07:13.department has in recent years but in some ?35 million for homeless.

:07:14. > :07:16.The money hasn't yet so what is a conjugated problem. In the past

:07:17. > :07:21.three weeks three people have died in the city centre. The first, a man

:07:22. > :07:25.in his 30s on Donegal Place. Less than a week later the body of a

:07:26. > :07:29.another homeless man was found, this time in the toilet of a fast food

:07:30. > :07:34.restaurant. Then last night, just a few metres away on Castle Place,

:07:35. > :07:37.another man died. At Belfast city Hall this afternoon, groups involved

:07:38. > :07:44.in trying to help the homeless came together. We have identified and

:07:45. > :07:47.know that there is a population of about 35 individuals with really,

:07:48. > :07:53.really complex needs in the city centre who have accommodation and

:07:54. > :07:57.would like the public to know that they have accommodation, but due to

:07:58. > :08:00.the complex needs they are making decisions often to stay on the

:08:01. > :08:04.street overnight. This afternoon I spoke to one of them. He didn't want

:08:05. > :08:11.his station on camera. Why wouldn't you go to a hostel? Because I'd get

:08:12. > :08:17.stabbed. You got stabbed? Yes, I got stabbed last time. Disturbing, isn't

:08:18. > :08:26.it? That's a big scar. Three holding my bowel, part of my spleen. That

:08:27. > :08:33.happened inside a hostel? Now you wonder why we don't go to hospitals,

:08:34. > :08:37.that is the reason. -- hostels. There is now a renewed effort to

:08:38. > :08:43.find a solution. For some, it is too late. There is no doubt, and I have

:08:44. > :08:47.been around the city today, what happened here on the street last

:08:48. > :08:52.night has caused huge shock, but had it made any difference? Well, I had

:08:53. > :08:55.to report the night, no. Three or four young men sleeping round the

:08:56. > :08:59.corner, and just before we came on as a man went into a sleeping bag

:09:00. > :09:03.beside me. Only metres from where someone else died last night. This

:09:04. > :09:04.problem is not going to be solved overnight.

:09:05. > :09:13.A short time ago I spoke to Liam Kinney from the Housing Executive

:09:14. > :09:29.We have a 24/7 at team. We have two had a half thousand bed spaces in

:09:30. > :09:34.Belfast. We have a multidisciplinary team of specialist social workers

:09:35. > :09:38.working with them, and all that support I can advise, I can't talk

:09:39. > :09:43.about the four cases, was therefore these individuals, and yet they

:09:44. > :09:48.didn't engage. I suppose the key questions we have got to define the

:09:49. > :09:55.answer to is why they didn't engage. We are talking about multi-complex

:09:56. > :10:00.individuals here, entrenched lifestyles, and a very, very

:10:01. > :10:04.difficult individuals to find housing and support solutions for

:10:05. > :10:07.but we are committed across the agencies to find solutions, and

:10:08. > :10:10.ensure that this doesn't happen again was not particularly at this

:10:11. > :10:14.time of year when the so called, is there nothing that can be done in an

:10:15. > :10:17.emergency situation to say, look, we aren't going to have anybody

:10:18. > :10:21.sleeping on the streets in Belfast whether you like it or not,

:10:22. > :10:25.effectively, because if they are in such a dire situation, where they

:10:26. > :10:29.can't engage or are unable to, that is when you had hacked is that then?

:10:30. > :10:33.There is a street outreach that we've funnelled through the welcome

:10:34. > :10:36.Centre out in the streets of Belfast every day and night. They are

:10:37. > :10:41.engaging with these individuals. They have tried to move them from

:10:42. > :10:46.the street and to a place of safety. Unfortunately, for their own

:10:47. > :10:49.individual reasons some of them prefer to stay on the streets rather

:10:50. > :10:55.than engage with that, so the support is there. The issue is how

:10:56. > :10:58.do you get these individuals do engage with that support. I

:10:59. > :11:04.appreciate that is a very difficult question to answer but we cannot let

:11:05. > :11:07.people die. Absolutely not, and as I said, we are committed across all

:11:08. > :11:12.agencies to ensure that doesn't happen will stop we do our utmost,

:11:13. > :11:17.we are doing an immediate review of all the services we provide across

:11:18. > :11:22.all the sectors, in housing, in health, with the police, with the

:11:23. > :11:23.council and others. That is being taken forward as a matter of

:11:24. > :11:24.urgency. 120 women who had suspected breast

:11:25. > :11:27.cancer and who weren't seen by a consultant within the 14 day

:11:28. > :11:30.target were later given The development has been

:11:31. > :11:35.described by a cancer charity The information emerged in a written

:11:36. > :11:39.assembly question submitted by the former Health Minister Michael

:11:40. > :11:40.Mcgimpsey. A survivor of the disease has told

:11:41. > :11:43.the BBC that targets Our Health Correspondent

:11:44. > :11:59.Marie-Louise Connolly has the story. Hello? Hello macro running her own

:12:00. > :12:03.business, this lady's life is often stressful, but she said that is

:12:04. > :12:07.nothing compared to the stress endured while she was waiting to see

:12:08. > :12:11.a cancer specialist. You can't think clearly, you lose your appetite.

:12:12. > :12:17.Eventually I had lost my appetite completely, and a a lot of weight,

:12:18. > :12:22.and I had to eventually... Opened wait any longer and I went

:12:23. > :12:31.privately. Breast cancer is back in the headlines, after headlines last

:12:32. > :12:38.year revealing numbers weren't seen by experts were later diagnosed as

:12:39. > :12:43.positive. One specialist told me that one late diagnosis is one case

:12:44. > :12:53.too many. According to the official figures, last year 2759 urgent

:12:54. > :13:01.referrals with red flags were seen at the clinic. Of those, 93%, the

:13:02. > :13:06.vast majority, did not have cancer. But 121 women who weren't seen

:13:07. > :13:10.within the 14 day target were later diagnosed with cancer. It's not good

:13:11. > :13:15.enough for the Department and the Ministry to be saying demand was too

:13:16. > :13:20.high and we don't have enough staff. We know where the demand is going to

:13:21. > :13:24.be, we are able to predict that, and also as far as staff is concerned,

:13:25. > :13:28.recruit more. That is down to money. They simply won't spend the cash.

:13:29. > :13:32.Earlier this month, the BBC revealed that cancer rates are expected to

:13:33. > :13:36.increase by 65% in the next 20 years. A local charity says

:13:37. > :13:42.decision-makers must start preparing. We really feel there

:13:43. > :13:49.needs to be a strategic overview, a cancer plan that is properly

:13:50. > :13:52.measured, and that the whole service has looked at, so that they are

:13:53. > :13:58.prepared for the future. The Belfast health class says it is to appoint a

:13:59. > :14:00.further surgeon to cope with the demand.

:14:01. > :14:03.Executive ministers swapped a castle for a Town Hall today

:14:04. > :14:05.when they held their first formal meeting outside Stormont.

:14:06. > :14:08.It's part of a new policy of taking the body around Northern Ireland.

:14:09. > :14:10.The first destination this morning was Enniskillen.

:14:11. > :14:17.Our political correspondent Gareth Gordon was there.

:14:18. > :14:26.Clinton, Obama, Thatcher, and the Queen. Over the years, Enniskillen

:14:27. > :14:33.has seen them all. But for the First Minister this was a sort of

:14:34. > :14:38.homecoming. And a little bit of history. The first formal meeting of

:14:39. > :14:41.the Executive outside Stormont will stop I have said since I've become

:14:42. > :14:44.First Minister that I wanted to be a listening First Minister, I have

:14:45. > :14:49.been out and around Northern Ireland since I have been appointed many

:14:50. > :14:52.many towns, many villages, and I'm listening to what people have to say

:14:53. > :14:55.to us and that is one of the reasons why I want to come to Ellis Killen

:14:56. > :14:59.today to say that politics is not just about dormant, it is about

:15:00. > :15:02.every town and village across Northern Ireland. We have committed

:15:03. > :15:06.ourselves to speak to people first-hand and see what we can do to

:15:07. > :15:09.address the issues that have been raised, and so this is a very strong

:15:10. > :15:14.commitment from us and the fact that we are going to Derry as the next

:15:15. > :15:19.stop out of Belfast, and we will be under other places, is a very clear

:15:20. > :15:23.example of our determination to deliver for everybody. The locals

:15:24. > :15:27.were pleased. Mostly. It's good that they're basically getting out

:15:28. > :15:30.amongst the people, particularly to the west of the province. I think it

:15:31. > :15:35.is fabulous. Enniskillen is fabulous. I'm not sure what you're

:15:36. > :15:42.talking about. The Executive? I don't know. The Executive has often

:15:43. > :15:46.been accused of being right from the people it governs. Ministers are

:15:47. > :15:55.hoping that by taking it out and about, that criticism will lesson.

:15:56. > :15:57.Voting gets underway in the morning in the Republic's general election.

:15:58. > :16:00.It's expected that no party will come close to getting

:16:01. > :16:03.Let's go live to our Dublin Correspondent Shane Harrison.

:16:04. > :16:10.Shane, how would you sum up the campaign? Tara, nearly 3 million

:16:11. > :16:14.people are entitled to vote tomorrow, between seven o'clock in

:16:15. > :16:19.the morning and ten o'clock at night to elect 158 TDs in 40

:16:20. > :16:23.constituencies. Some people of the islands of Donegal, Galway and mail,

:16:24. > :16:28.have already been casting their ballots today. The campaign itself

:16:29. > :16:31.has been as short as the Constitution allows for, and

:16:32. > :16:35.initially it was dominated by Dublin's gangland murders and

:16:36. > :16:40.funerals. Over the last few days, there has been a real sense that the

:16:41. > :16:44.public are beginning to engage with the electoral process. Shane, how at

:16:45. > :16:48.the various leaders done on the hustings? The opinion polls suggest

:16:49. > :16:53.that left-wing parties and independents will do well. Of the

:16:54. > :17:00.four main party leaders, they have had their problems. The Taoiseach

:17:01. > :17:02.Enda Kenny, leader of Fine Gael, initially had its financial figures

:17:03. > :17:08.questioned by Sinn Fein and then had to do apologise for describing as

:17:09. > :17:13.whingers are people who questioned whether there was an economic

:17:14. > :17:16.recovery or not. The Labour Party where the polls with this appears to

:17:17. > :17:20.suggest that Labour is being published for overpromising in 2011,

:17:21. > :17:24.the last election, and under delivering. For the Fianna Fail

:17:25. > :17:27.leader, his party is still dealing with the fallout from the 2011

:17:28. > :17:32.general election when its support crashed because of the EU IMF

:17:33. > :17:36.bailouts associated with the economic crash, and the property

:17:37. > :17:40.bubble. His party will do the better this time round but it will get

:17:41. > :17:44.nowhere near the 40% that it used to get. Sinn Fein had a good start to

:17:45. > :17:49.the campaign, but over the course of the last few weeks, its support has

:17:50. > :17:54.begun to a road. Critics will say that is partly because of Gerry

:17:55. > :17:56.Adams needy performances in which he appeared to show a lack of detail

:17:57. > :18:00.about financial figures, not what you would expect from somebody

:18:01. > :18:06.auditioning to be the GC executive of a state with a nearly 60 billion

:18:07. > :18:09.euros tax take, and one which is still not balancing its books was up

:18:10. > :18:14.we will know whether any of this had any impact in a few days' time, when

:18:15. > :18:15.the results and the ballots are counted. An interesting few days to

:18:16. > :18:19.come. We will leave it there. The contract to create what's

:18:20. > :18:21.being called the Irish version of the Orient Express has been won

:18:22. > :18:24.the County Antrim firm Mivan. It's better known for its work

:18:25. > :18:27.on cruise liners, and this is its first

:18:28. > :18:28.project involving a train. Our economics and business editor

:18:29. > :18:41.John Campbell been to see Two years ago, this factory fell

:18:42. > :18:45.silent when Mivan went into administration. Now, under new

:18:46. > :18:50.ownership, it is doing new things and employing more than 100 people.

:18:51. > :18:56.This was an Irish rail passenger train. It's been bought by the

:18:57. > :19:00.travel firm Belmont, and is being transformed by Gucci macro's

:19:01. > :19:05.craftsman. These cavities when complete will be the height of old

:19:06. > :19:09.school lottery but for paying passengers that won't come cheap

:19:10. > :19:12.stop a three-day return trip from Dublin to the giant's Causeway will

:19:13. > :19:23.set you back about two and a half thousand pounds. -- ?2500. This is

:19:24. > :19:28.one of Belmont's trains. It will give you a flavour of what is to

:19:29. > :19:31.come. We had a logistical nightmare, thanks to the roads service, the

:19:32. > :19:37.government, everybody coming together with the rail companies in

:19:38. > :19:41.actual fact to transport one of these, several of these to our

:19:42. > :19:44.premises here in Antrim. Work it will be finished in the summer and

:19:45. > :19:50.the train will begin operating in August. At a time of bad news for

:19:51. > :19:53.the local manufacturing sector, it is a reminder that there are still

:19:54. > :19:55.successful companies doing globally competitive work.

:19:56. > :19:57.The Republic of Ireland manager Martin O'Neill has been

:19:58. > :20:00.in Londonderry today giving a series of talks on how he's reached

:20:01. > :20:05.And he gave some revealing insights into his managerial

:20:06. > :20:07.assistant Roy Keane, who he said was a driving force

:20:08. > :20:09.behind Manchester United for a decade.

:20:10. > :20:13.Our North-West reporter, Keiron Tourish, caught up with him.

:20:14. > :20:18.It's a series called getting to the top of your game, and today Martin

:20:19. > :20:22.O'Neill gave some fascinating insights. As a young man, his mother

:20:23. > :20:26.always stressed the value of education, as he longs to play for

:20:27. > :20:33.rail Madrid. He revealed that perms were all the rage although he never

:20:34. > :20:37.got one. That's a nice touch! Henrik Larsson was the best player he

:20:38. > :20:41.managed, and he believes messy is better than Maradona will stop but

:20:42. > :20:48.the biggest question of all, what is Roy Keane really like? Oh, he's not

:20:49. > :20:53.a pussycat. He's been a great help and inspiration in that sense, but

:20:54. > :20:56.he is two minutes away from an explosion at any given state was up

:20:57. > :21:01.his very good fun, and actually very self-effacing as well, he really is.

:21:02. > :21:13.You would enjoy his company. But he had to be in a good mood. Martin

:21:14. > :21:17.O'Neill enjoyed European success. Today, he had simple advice for his

:21:18. > :21:23.audience. The one thing that you have two note, if you have a goal in

:21:24. > :21:30.mind, and you feel that it is achievable, you have to have

:21:31. > :21:33.enthusiasm. It's number one. I really enjoyed it, especially

:21:34. > :21:37.somebody as an experienced as him coming on, and explaining how

:21:38. > :21:43.success came about. He was really down to earth, he could take a laugh

:21:44. > :21:44.and all, and really welcoming. Certainly a day that the students

:21:45. > :21:45.won't forget. The tension has been ratcheted up

:21:46. > :21:48.in both Manchester London ahead of whats being billed

:21:49. > :21:49.as Super Saturday. Mark Sidebottom is here

:21:50. > :21:54.with this evening's sport. We'll get to the rugby in a moment

:21:55. > :21:58.but first the hype hoopla went in to overdrive ahead

:21:59. > :22:00.of Carl Farmpton's unification fight prompted Frampton to label his

:22:01. > :22:08.opponent superstitious. As Thomas Kane reports,

:22:09. > :22:10.when the delayed press connference eventually got underway

:22:11. > :22:23.the bickering continued. There was tension between the

:22:24. > :22:28.fighters as tempers flared both camps refused to back down. There's

:22:29. > :22:35.a lot of speculation that you are arguing over gesturing rooms. --

:22:36. > :22:42.dressing rooms. This is a lot of nonsense. I am the lead name of the

:22:43. > :22:46.show, I should be start changing room, but this kid is so

:22:47. > :22:49.superstitious, and he has always been in a changing room and wants to

:22:50. > :22:53.be in it again. The position is a sign of weakness, but we will be

:22:54. > :22:56.fair, lock the changing room up, we will go to different gender rooms,

:22:57. > :23:02.but he doesn't want it. He threw his toys out of the pram. He was going

:23:03. > :23:07.to take my dressing room. If you back yourself so much? What does it

:23:08. > :23:12.matter? What makes you think and you are coming to my arena and choosing

:23:13. > :23:19.what dressing room you have? It's not your arena. Will this put the

:23:20. > :23:22.fight in dressing room? No, I just need to be in the dressing room,

:23:23. > :23:27.that's it. He's just trying to unsettle us, just trying to think of

:23:28. > :23:33.some small thing that he can try and get over the fight on me. It won't

:23:34. > :23:37.happen. It hasn't been easy to get Frampton and quick in the same ring.

:23:38. > :23:40.It has taken almost four years, and every step along the way there have

:23:41. > :23:46.been disputes. From venues to Percy 's, ring walks, two dressing rooms.

:23:47. > :23:48.The fact is, one thing is for certain. On Sunday, one of them is

:23:49. > :23:51.going to be a double world champion. If you think Frampton-Quigg

:23:52. > :23:53.is getting feisty, new England coach Eddie Jones weighed in with an upper

:23:54. > :23:56.cut of his own today as he questioned Jonny Sexton's

:23:57. > :24:00.fitness, ahead of Saturdays six Jones claiming Sextons parents

:24:01. > :24:06.will be "worried about his health". Both teams were named today,

:24:07. > :24:22.with two Ireland debutants, Six foot four, 17 stone Alan

:24:23. > :24:29.Saturday. This machine will make his debut on Saturday. A daunting task.

:24:30. > :24:35.Against Johnny Sexton who has suffered from concussion in the past

:24:36. > :24:40.full stop this afternoon the England coach made his intentions clear. Is

:24:41. > :24:44.there some sort of special law? There's 15 players out there, and

:24:45. > :24:50.we're not supposed to run at one where? We will be talking players in

:24:51. > :24:55.the island side. We want to win, and you win by attacking team's weak

:24:56. > :24:57.points. They have talked about Sexton having whiplash injuries,

:24:58. > :25:02.which is not a great thing to talk about. I'm sure his mother and

:25:03. > :25:05.father will be worried about that. I think there's probably a little bit

:25:06. > :25:10.of irresponsibility, people making comments outside the environment,

:25:11. > :25:13.who have no medical background. They have no medical knowledge of how fit

:25:14. > :25:20.or otherwise Johnny is, and maybe that is part of the dialogue about

:25:21. > :25:23.settling him. Out of 23 games, Johnny Sexton has finished just

:25:24. > :25:27.three. For a variety of reasons was that many tactical, but on other

:25:28. > :25:31.occasions because of injury, and it is that cars in connection with

:25:32. > :25:35.concussion that frustrate one of world rugby's top players. I don't

:25:36. > :25:40.want the criticism, I don't want people to talk down on my game, but

:25:41. > :25:44.for guys in the media to come out and say that I have got concussion

:25:45. > :25:48.when I've got a groin strain, all I got concussion when I've picked a

:25:49. > :25:51.neck injury, it is really frustrating, because concussion is a

:25:52. > :25:56.serious matter and to be labelled with it and to be tarnished with it

:25:57. > :25:59.is a pretty frustrating thing when it's not true, so that is

:26:00. > :26:02.frustrating for me. Ireland against England is always a special

:26:03. > :26:10.occasion. It looks like Saturday will be no different.

:26:11. > :26:14.More from London and Manchester tomorrow. I can't wait.

:26:15. > :26:27.A very good evening to you. The cold weather is set to continue the next

:26:28. > :26:30.few days. You will need to wrap up warm, and there is lots of clouds

:26:31. > :26:34.drifting in from the Atlantic today. It is a weather front which will

:26:35. > :26:37.edge in across the Republic of Ireland's tonight, and then move

:26:38. > :26:41.towards us tomorrow. It will bring a fleck of some showers. Once they

:26:42. > :26:44.move away, and they aren't for everyone, the dry weather will

:26:45. > :26:48.return this weekend, and it will stay cold right through the end of

:26:49. > :26:52.the week. It will all be change next week as wind and rain returns from

:26:53. > :26:55.the Atlantic. Tonight, barring the odd coastal shower it will be

:26:56. > :26:59.largely dry, with some cloud around but it is quite thin. We could see

:27:00. > :27:03.some patchy frost but not as cold as recent lights. Is it will be dry,

:27:04. > :27:08.and the end of the night may see some showers, edging in particularly

:27:09. > :27:13.across southern and western counties during the course of Friday. First

:27:14. > :27:17.thing, a lot of places are still dry, but some of the showers could

:27:18. > :27:20.be wintry in the west, so a little bit of snow here and there.

:27:21. > :27:24.Otherwise, temperatures close to freezing but generally just above,

:27:25. > :27:28.so don't be surprised if it's not frosty but at the same time it could

:27:29. > :27:34.be a few patches of frosty or ice around. Showers continue to edge

:27:35. > :27:37.north and these would so there's a little area of low pressure over the

:27:38. > :27:40.Republic of Ireland is that is where most of the wet weather will be

:27:41. > :27:44.tomorrow, but there could be some drifting northwards from time to

:27:45. > :27:49.time. Perhaps drier days are past, but it will be cold and Chile.

:27:50. > :27:55.Particularly close to the east coast. Tomorrow night we see drier

:27:56. > :28:01.weather return for the weekend, with some sunny skies, cheerio whether

:28:02. > :28:04.this weekend. It stays cold, but we don't mind it so much if there's

:28:05. > :28:05.some sunshine and it is dry, and it is all change next week. The rain

:28:06. > :28:07.and wind will back. Our late summary

:28:08. > :28:09.is at half past ten. You can also keep in contact with us

:28:10. > :28:12.via Facebook and twitter. From all of us here
