This is not and will not be the campaign on the past and it will not | :00:28. | :00:34. | |

Ireland exit cricket's World Twenty20. | :01:08. | :01:09. | |

The police say they've prevented a number of attempted murders | :01:13. | :01:23. | |
by dissident republicans since an attack on a prison officer | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
Assistant Chief Constable Will Kerr has said dissident groups have | :01:28. | :01:33. | |
several hundred active members and has expressed concern | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
He has appealed to members of the public to help | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
counter the threat, as our Home Affairs Correspondent | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
This day last week, a prison officer escaped an attempt to kill him | :01:47. | :01:53. | |
In a statement to the BBC saying it carried out the attack, | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
the dissident republican group calling itself the IRA said further | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
The police today they said they foiled other planned attacks | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
The police won't reveal precise detail but they say they prevented a | :02:10. | :02:21. | |
number of attempted murders by dissident triple publicans -- | :02:22. | :02:24. | |
republicans since last week's attack. | :02:25. | :02:26. | |
During the past year, dissident republicans have launched | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
attacks using assault rifles, homemade mortars and under-car | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
The PSNI officer who leads efforts to combat dissident activity today | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
said he's deeply concerned about their increasing capabilities | :02:35. | :02:36. | |
Several hundred people who are active dissident republicans who are | :02:37. | :02:50. | |
involved in the various groupings whatever they call themselves, they | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
are significantly fewer people than that and most of them have terrorist | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
experienced who have involvement in running these organisations but | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
there are several hundred of these at the moment... | :03:03. | :03:03. | |
The police and MI5 devote huge resources to undercover covert | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
activities to monitor and gather intelligence about dissident groups. | :03:07. | :03:08. | |
The PSNI says that work disrupts three or four planned attacks | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
Last week the police issued a stark warning about the intentions | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
of dissident republicans in the run up to the centenary | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
We have seen an upsurge over the last number of weeks and we | :03:21. | :03:33. | |
anticipate that might continue. They are a bit like a playground bully. | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
Everyone else in the school has moved on and these people just don't | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
understand what is going on around them. The only thing they know is | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
violence. That didn't work in the past and it won't work now and it | :03:48. | :03:48. | |
won't be the future. The police have appealed to members | :03:49. | :03:49. | |
of the public to help them We know communities have more | :03:50. | :03:58. | |
information about these groupings, who they are, what they do, what | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
their plans are. The best way they can do this is for the communities | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
to stop viewing the passing of information to police services as a | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
dirty word, informing or touting and seeing it as a civic duty. | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
The police rarely talk about intelligence matters | :04:16. | :04:17. | |
or discuss the capabilities of dissident republican groups. | :04:18. | :04:18. | |
The fact that they've done so today, and that this is the second serious | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
warning by a senior officer within a week, clearly underlines | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
the level of concern they have about what might happen | :04:25. | :04:26. | |
The inquest into the death of Arlene Arkinson has heard | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
a chilling account of an assault on a teenager by the child killer | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
The victim kept the assault secret for several years, before | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
But she did warn the Castlederg teenager Arlene Arkinson not | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
It's now clear that when 15-year-old Arlene Arkinson went missing | :04:48. | :04:56. | |
in 1994, the main suspect Robert Howard had already carried | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
out many assaults on young women and children. | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
Now the inquest into Arlene's death has heard of an assault | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
The woman can't be named for legal reasons. | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
She was just 14 years old around 1993. | :05:12. | :05:13. | |
She didn't like Howard - he'd had a habit of staring at her, | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
The court heard she sometimes went to Howard's flat with friends. | :05:17. | :05:24. | |
But on one occasion she went there with Donna Quinn. | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
Many believed her mum was Howard's girlfriend. | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
The flat was dark, the curtains drawn, and they began | :05:30. | :05:31. | |
The witness described what happened next - | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
Howard followed her to a room, assaulted her, and attempted | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
"I thought we were playing an innocent game of hide | :05:41. | :05:49. | |
"I knew that Bob Howard was going to have sex with me | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
"against my will and I was so lucky to get away." | :05:56. | :05:57. | |
A shout for help to Donna Quinn hadn't helped - | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
but the teenager managed to strike Howard with her knee and escape | :06:01. | :06:02. | |
She told the court she was surprised to find Donna there. | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
She also explained how she immediately left the flat | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
and did her best to avoid contact with Robert Howard | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
The next year she heard Arlene refer to meeting Howard and tried | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
to warn her off him without saying why. | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
The woman explained how for years she hadn't told anyone what had | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
happened, until she spoke to detectives about it almost | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
"That incident was a living nightmare. | :06:30. | :06:41. | |
"When it came into my head, I had to shut it out." | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
It was around a year after this incident that Arlene went missing | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
after a night out with Howard and others. | :06:48. | :06:48. | |
From Tyrone to China, the farmers getting ready to export | :06:49. | :06:55. | |
A man who describes himself as the close companion of the late | :06:56. | :07:07. | |
Ulster Unionist leader Lord Molyneaux has spoken | :07:08. | :07:09. | |
On the anniversary of his death, Christopher Luke, who is openly gay, | :07:10. | :07:20. | |
has told BBC Radio Ulster that the men had a very loving | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
relationship and that he loved the politician as a brother. | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
Our Political Correspondent Chris Page reports. | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
An MP for almost 30 years, the leader of unionism for a decade | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
and a half - James Molyneaux was one of the most important politicians | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
in Northern Ireland's recent history. | :07:40. | :07:48. | |
Before going into politics he was in the RAF during World War II. | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
This week was the anniversary of his death. | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
Christopher Luke says he was Lord Molyneaux's close companion. | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
"Your love for me was wonderful - more wonderful than that of women." | :08:00. | :08:14. | |
This morning, the Irish News reproduced the memorial notice | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
Mr Luke has spoken to BBC Radio Ulster's | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
He says he feels the politician's legacy has been forgotten | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
His Parliamentary achievement in terms of what he achieved for | :08:23. | :08:35. | |
Northern Ireland, they have been airbrushed from history. I am paying | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
tribute to him this week, I just hope that his legacy will be | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
remembered and revered by everybody as much as me. | :08:47. | :08:47. | |
A year on, Mr Luke still finds the loss of Mr Molyneaux very | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
I had a very loving relationship with him. They loved him as a | :08:51. | :09:03. | |
brother. He will always have a place in my heart. Was it a romantic | :09:04. | :09:13. | |
relationship? There was love between us, but there are different forms of | :09:14. | :09:20. | |
love. I wish people would stop putting two and two together and | :09:21. | :09:21. | |
coming up with five. James Molyneaux was the Ulster | :09:22. | :09:23. | |
Unionist leader during some of Northern Ireland's | :09:24. | :09:25. | |
most difficult years. What Christopher Luke has said helps | :09:26. | :09:26. | |
to shine a light on a man who had a very public role, | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
but was a very private person. The Belfast businessman | :09:31. | :09:37. | |
Gareth Graham has settled his high profile legal action with Cerberus | :09:38. | :09:39. | |
and withdrawn his criticism Cerberus bought Mr Graham's property | :09:40. | :09:41. | |
loans as part of a billion pound deal with Nama and put some of his | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
companies into administration. Mr Graham has been challenging | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
its right to do that. With the details, here's our | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
Economics and Business Editor, Gareth Graham has had a bitter | :09:53. | :10:05. | |
public dispute with Cerberus. He has challenged the firm in the High | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
Court and given evidence at Stormont where he was highly critical of how | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
it does business. My experience is that Cerberus's approach in reality | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
is that they are ruthless, unjust and unreasonable. Which is at odds | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
with the assertion that Cerberus's involvement in Northern Ireland | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
would be good for the economy. Now he says the legal proceedings have | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
been resolved to the full satisfaction of all parties. That | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
follows a mediation process. This will allow him to reclaim control of | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
his properties like this Belfast office block and return his focus to | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
his business. In an unusual move he has placed an ad in some of today's | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
papers which effectively retract his political comments. It says he | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
regrets any inadvertent harm which has been caused to the Cerberus | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
brand as a result of the litigation. He adds that as certain matters have | :11:01. | :11:06. | |
become clear, it is now no longer possible to maintain his allegations | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
were complaints about Cerberus and he says he is content Cerberus is | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
not and was not involved in any illegal conduct. He is also agreed | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
to meet the firm's legal costs which are likely to be substantial. This | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
settlement allows Mr Graham to move on with his business and his life. | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
It also distances Cerberus from the allegations made around the conduct | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
of the now my deal. And in reality this particular case had little to | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
do with the central issue of who was due to benefit from that deal and | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
why. That issue is still being investigated by the National Crime | :11:45. | :11:45. | |
Agency. A woman says she's appalled | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
at the outrageous behaviour that staff at Altnagelvin | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
hospital have to put up with which she witnessed | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
herself this week. A man is said to have verbally | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
abused a nurse and urinated in a waiting area while sick people | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
including children sat nearby. The Foyle MP Mark Durkan says it's | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
simply unacceptable and should Here's our North-West | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
Reporter Keiron Tourish. This woman says she will never | :12:10. | :12:24. | |
forget the distressing scenes she witnessed at Altnagelvin hospital | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
earlier this week. Her daughter with an Accident and Emergency waiting to | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
be examined by a doctor. The area was crowded with people including | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
several children. It was then around tea-time that a man started abusing | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
a member of staff. He was roaring and he was roaring at her. She said, | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
I am a member of the medical profession, please don't talk to me | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
like that, I don't need to listen to that. He burst out the side door | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
which took him back out into casualty and he pulled out his zip | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
and started urinating everywhere. Splashing on the cherries and people | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
and everybody was aghast -- -- on the chairs. What do you do? Somebody | :13:06. | :13:13. | |
inform the police officers and they went and got him and put him down on | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
the ground and took him out but it was awful. Mayhem over there at the | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
minute, I don't know why. The Foyle MP said it was unacceptable | :13:25. | :13:29. | |
especially where staff are providing such high quality of care. It | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
demonstrates that we owe them an awful lot. They deal with not just | :13:33. | :13:37. | |
all the stresses and issues that people bring to their door but also | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
a huge pressures of their own, so it demonstrates that we owe them not | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
just the thought and the recognition when something like this happens, | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
but much better support in terms of budgets and other measures. The | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
police have confirmed that a 26-year-old man was arrested at | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
Altnagelvin hospital on suspicion of indecent behaviour and disorderly | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
behaviour and with resisting police officers. He is due to appear in | :14:06. | :14:07. | |
court later this month. In just a few weeks, | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
a number of large-scale events will take place to mark | :14:12. | :14:14. | |
the centenary of the 1916 Easter But there's been controversy over | :14:15. | :14:16. | |
how it's remembered in schools here. Well today in East Belfast, | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
seven schools came together to discuss the Rising and the Somme, | :14:21. | :14:22. | |
which both shaped politics and commemorations over the next 100 | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
years..Lisa McAlister went along. All of the students here were born | :14:28. | :14:36. | |
after the signing of the Good Friday Agreement but today they gathered at | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
a college in East Belfast to remember and discuss events which | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
happened 100 years ago, the focus, and the Easter rising and the Somme. | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
Although from various religious and political backgrounds there was | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
consensus when it came to respecting different interpretations of | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
history. I think it is a good idea that we all come together today and | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
there is mutual respect between different sides. Learning about the | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
past can help with the future. I think it is critical in Northern | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
Ireland wants to step forward, we must look at the past on both sides | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
so that we can come together in the present. Local churches in the area | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
helped to organise this event and the hope is others will follow the | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
example set by the teenagers. There is a comfort in sitting down and | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
discussing the difficult issues and different interpretations. They are | :15:28. | :15:34. | |
showing a maturity here that we certainly can learn from. Meanwhile | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
DUP MLA Nelson McCausland has criticised the 1916 Easter rising is | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
being commemorated in some Belfast schools. There are productions being | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
put on that I think affirm the ideology of 1916 and the republican | :15:49. | :15:56. | |
narrative of 1916. Two young impressionable, vulnerable people, | :15:57. | :16:03. | |
asserting, affirming, validating what is really a lethal Legacy... | :16:04. | :16:09. | |
One of the plays criticised by Nelson McCausland was 1916 which was | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
performed by A-level pupils from an Irish line with school in West | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
Belfast. It is very important that they play was accurate. The reason | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
for the controversy, I just don't understand it. I don't get it by | :16:25. | :16:26. | |
somebody who hasn't even seen the play. The export of local park to | :16:27. | :16:37. | |
China was announced with a fanfare back in November. Trade that is said | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
to be worth ?10 billion a year but almost four months and there is no | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
sign of the deal being closed. That is at a time where pig producers are | :16:47. | :16:48. | |
under big pressure. Our Agriculture and Environment | :16:49. | :16:50. | |
Correspondent Conor Macauley This man runs a pig farm in County | :16:51. | :17:01. | |
Tyrone. For two here's what he has been paid has just about covered the | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
cost of producing these animals. Then in October instead of the | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
traditional price increase driven by Christmas demand there was a slump. | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
It is costing him and others big money. Each pig he sells he is | :17:13. | :17:22. | |
losing cash. We would sell 420 finishers a week and that is losing | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
?10 per pig. When we expect sales to improve in the happier we have lost | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
?80,000. A couple of different trees and influence the price of the pigs, | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
one of them is currency exchange rate, which makes imports cheaper | :17:38. | :17:43. | |
and depresses the price. Another is foreign policy and events far away | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
from this County Tyrone farm. When the Russians went into Ukraine, the | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
EU imposed sanctions. The Russians retaliated by banning EU food. That | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
meant a club of European pig meat with no real market. More supply and | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
less demand that the price. The only potential bright spot for local | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
producers was the opportunity to export to China. Provisional | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
approval came in November but almost four months on, final approval and | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
they start of those exports remains elusive. Our expectations haven't | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
been met at all, because we have had too many. Is. Extreme frustration | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
within the farming industry above the red tape. Processing plants here | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
had some work to finish before final approval. When it was done and the | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
evidence sent to the Chinese in January. The fact that that | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
coincided with the Chinese New Year probably helped slow things down. We | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
have an Executive office in Beijing so we are working with contacts | :18:48. | :18:49. | |
there and the consulate in Belfast, Executive level and with colleagues | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
in Defra. We are just waiting for the Chinese government to give the | :18:55. | :19:00. | |
go-ahead. You hopes the price he gets to pick up in the summer when | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
demand picks up, by that time he will be tens of thousand pounds down | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
and he will need every penny to make up his losses. | :19:10. | :19:10. | |
More misery for Ireland's cricketers at the World Twenty20 series | :19:11. | :19:12. | |
Down and out in Dharamsala, Donna - two days ago it was humiliation | :19:13. | :19:23. | |
against Oman, today a combination of the weather and Bangladesh saw | :19:24. | :19:25. | |
Ireland prematurely dumped out of the World Twenty20. | :19:26. | :19:27. | |
That may have been the perfect start for Ireland... In a game already | :19:28. | :19:41. | |
reduced to 12 overs Ireland needed to get off to a good start but | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
dropped catches and misfield allow the Bangladesh opening pair to | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
ponder some poor bowling. Has it got enough legs on it? I would say it | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
has. That is another big hit. And even when Ireland had the chance to | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
slow them down, they failed to take it, wicketkeeper Nyla Bryant missing | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
the easiest of stumpings. Tamim Iqbal was the next wicket to fall, | :20:05. | :20:12. | |
with Bangladesh 94-2 off just eight overs. But his dismissal was the | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
final act. As the rain came, Ireland were left to watch their World | :20:18. | :20:19. | |
Twenty20 hopes get washed away. He's had to defend his selection | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
policy, he's admitted Bar a paltry point picked up | :20:23. | :20:24. | |
against Wales, it's been a pretty But surely the back-to-back | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
Six Nations champions couldn't lose A trawl through the archives brings | :20:30. | :20:52. | |
us back to January 19 97. -- 19 97. Today that drew me in's Italy's only | :20:53. | :21:01. | |
win on Irish soil. -- that remains. Italy have beaten Ireland by 22 | :21:02. | :21:07. | |
points to 15. We only have to flick back three seasons to find Ireland | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
being overrun in Rome. Maybe that's why the coach has opted for a | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
minimal tinkering. There is probably a bit of turmoil. A bit of | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
frustration and disappointment. We want to be in the mix, no one had | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
ever put three back-to-back full stop this squad we had, we felt we | :21:24. | :21:30. | |
had an outside chance. That chance has long since gone and yet, when a | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
largely meaningless match, Ireland field a starting 15 with over 600 | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
caps between them. If the coach can be accused of caution and | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
conservatism he can also point to new caps. We are just focusing on | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
our performance. We know if we can perform really well, hopefully a | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
result and a win but Italy are obviously a really good team. They | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
have improved and been improving a lot, we saw against Scotland the | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
amount of possession and territory they had, they will be a tough task. | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
Although bottom of the table, the Italians have raised into Dublin | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
planning an ambush. Don't be fooled by this casual work out. Tomorrow | :22:10. | :22:10. | |
will be bruising. Now, with Northern Ireland's Euro | :22:11. | :22:13. | |
2016 opener in France just 12 weeks away, here's Mark Simpson | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
with a look ahead to some special reports on BBC Newsline | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
next Monday and Tuesday. I've been taking a closer look at | :22:20. | :22:27. | |
the cities where Northern Ireland are going to play during the Euro is | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
this summer, not just Paris... But also leave. Right in the heart of | :22:32. | :22:40. | |
France. And finally to niche in the south of France, where Northern | :22:41. | :22:43. | |
Ireland play their first match in just three months' time. What will | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
it be like for the fans in France this summer? I have been road | :22:48. | :22:54. | |
testing the Euros. I sometimes get his mail, if only I could get | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
Now let's get a look at the weather forecast. | :22:57. | :23:04. | |
It is looking better today. A disappointment today, not just for | :23:05. | :23:07. | |
the cricketers but it will dry up this weekend. If you have a couple | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
of days off next week the weather is looking pretty nice indeed with some | :23:12. | :23:14. | |
lovely stunning skies. Lots of sunshine. Good news with a budding | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
photographers out there. Lots of cloud today. The rain is edging away | :23:19. | :23:25. | |
at the moment. Some dry weather around just now. As the night goes | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
on the cloud will thicken up from time to time bringing some rain and | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
drizzle from the West. It will stay mild tonight. No lower than seven or | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
eight Celsius. Mist and low cloud around to begin with on Saturday but | :23:39. | :23:44. | |
it isn't on the day, it will improve. Early risers, not too nice. | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
Rain and drizzle around which will gradually edge away from the | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
south-west. Mid to late morning most places drying up. Generally a dry | :23:53. | :24:00. | |
picture around midday. Lots of cloud. Temperature is around ten or | :24:01. | :24:07. | |
11 Celsius. Lunchtime tomorrow, 1:30pm, the big match down in Dublin | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
and it looks like it will be dry and mild. Cloudy but temperatures around | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
13 Celsius. If you can't be there you can listen to it on BBC Radio | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
Ulster. Up north tomorrow afternoon temperatures around 11 or 12. Most | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
places dry. Possibly some practice in the east and any dumped his | :24:24. | :24:31. | |
further west. The night is mild and then more chance of sunshine and | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
light winds. Temperatures in sunny spots could hit 13 or 14. Maybe one | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
or two showers around and the threat of some list and look cloud | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
troubling parts of the County Down coast, especially the end of the | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
day. High pressure building for next week. Hopefully it will hold for the | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
Bank Holiday and Saint Patrick's Day with some lovely sunshine to come. I | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
like it. That is BBC Newsline. Our late summary is at half past ten on | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
