:00:36. > :00:50.What we need to do now is except the result of the referendum and build a

:01:12. > :01:13.tonight's programme: As more Syrian refugees arrive

:01:14. > :01:15.in Northern Ireland, we hear what life's been

:01:33. > :01:35.A move to end the dispute over an Orange Order parade in Ardoyne

:01:36. > :01:40.The proposed agreement would have also led to the end

:01:41. > :01:44.of the three-year-old protest at Twaddell Avenue.

:01:45. > :01:48.Our home affairs correspondent Vincent Kearney reports.

:01:49. > :01:51.This short section of road in North Belfast is one of the most

:01:52. > :02:04.contentious Orange Order parade routes.

:02:05. > :02:08.Three years ago, battles errupted when the parade was prevented

:02:09. > :02:11.Since then, Loyalist protesters have set up a camp just

:02:12. > :02:14.across the road from the Nationalist area.

:02:15. > :02:18.A deal would have brought the protest to an end.

:02:19. > :02:21.The Order would have completed the return leg of the

:02:22. > :02:30.At that point, the camp would have been dismantled.

:02:31. > :02:32.Agreement had also been reached on future parades

:02:33. > :02:38.Those involved in these talks were confident they were on

:02:39. > :02:53.Then came to a statement confirming the deal had

:02:54. > :03:04.This could be an extraordinary moment but people are very worried.

:03:05. > :03:07.They want to come to a conclusion. Tonight is the first time we've

:03:08. > :03:14.heard details of the proposals. We were forward to engaging with the

:03:15. > :03:15.community on those. The plan to end the dispute faced opposition on both

:03:16. > :03:25.sides. Senior Orange Order sources said

:03:26. > :03:27.they could still have made the deal But there was concern

:03:28. > :03:31.on the Nationalist This morning it was announced that

:03:32. > :03:55.the deal had been collapsed. A spokesperson said

:03:56. > :03:56.today they are hopeful I don't want to get

:03:57. > :04:03.into recriminations. I think what is

:04:04. > :04:06.incumbent upon all of us now is to assess where

:04:07. > :04:12.we are at and move forward. I do think any of these

:04:13. > :04:16.issues are insurmountable. With leadership, these

:04:17. > :04:20.issues can be addressed. In a statement, the Orange

:04:21. > :04:23.Order thanked all those involved in the initiative and said

:04:24. > :04:44.it very much regretted Those who backed this deal has given

:04:45. > :04:48.the failure to reach agreement is soft landing. No one is pointing the

:04:49. > :04:51.finger, there have been no recriminations. There is a clear

:04:52. > :04:53.desire to leave the door open in the hope that a deal can be struck at

:04:54. > :04:56.some stage. A court has been told that a man

:04:57. > :04:59.was stabbed about 200 times in, what was called, a "frenzied

:05:00. > :05:02.and repeated attack" The body of Kyle Neil,

:05:03. > :05:07.who was 23 and from Belfast, was found in the boot of a car

:05:08. > :05:10.outside a house in the south It had been moved there by his

:05:11. > :05:16.killer and his killer's girlfriend. 28-year-old Wesley Harry Vance has

:05:17. > :05:34.pleaded guilty to the murder Kyle Neill was just a few days away

:05:35. > :05:38.from turning 24th he had gone here to a party. The court heard after

:05:39. > :05:45.was to people went home, Stephanie Todd went to bed and the two sat up

:05:46. > :05:49.drinking. An argument led to a fight, and attack destroyed as

:05:50. > :05:55.frenzied and repeated. Kyle Neill was stabbed around 200 times, 50

:05:56. > :05:59.times in the face and scalp, 64 times in the chest, 52 times in the

:06:00. > :06:06.torso, back and neck. The court heard his colour Wesley vans admit

:06:07. > :06:11.that once the row became violent, he lost control. After the killing,

:06:12. > :06:17.vans moved the body will stop he drove here and brought a mobile

:06:18. > :06:21.phone believing it was his victim, he came back and walk his sleeping

:06:22. > :06:27.girlfriend Stephanie Todd to tell her what he'd done. The phone had in

:06:28. > :06:31.fact been hers. Kyle Neil's body had been wrapped in a blanket brought

:06:32. > :06:36.downstairs and placed in the boot of Wesley vans's Ford Fiesta. Along

:06:37. > :06:42.with him, Stephanie Todd drove through the early April morning to

:06:43. > :06:46.her mother's address in the Lisburn Road address area of Belfast. It was

:06:47. > :06:54.her mother who called the emergency services. Officers found the car and

:06:55. > :06:58.the body of Kyle Neil in the boot. Vans and Todd were arrested. He

:06:59. > :07:01.later pleaded guilty to murder, she has since pleaded guilty to

:07:02. > :07:05.obstructing the police. A barrister for Wesley vans told the police his

:07:06. > :07:10.client believed he had acted in self defence. After today, vans and

:07:11. > :07:12.Stephanie Todd will be sentenced next week.

:07:13. > :07:18.Local MEPs have been giving starkly contrasting verdicts on the result

:07:19. > :07:20.of last week's referendum, at a special session

:07:21. > :07:24.The Sinn Fein and DUP representatives intervened during

:07:25. > :07:26.stormy exchanges across the floor of the chamber in Brussels.

:07:27. > :07:35.Here's our political editor, Mark Devenport.

:07:36. > :07:46.Many of the key players of the Brexit drama where in Brussels

:07:47. > :07:54.today. Nigel Farage, a man who led the crusade against the EU, he was

:07:55. > :07:57.heckled by some MEPs but got support from the DUP. I do except that

:07:58. > :07:58.emotions are running high this morning.

:07:59. > :08:00.times, it has reinforced all the stereotypes that the British

:08:01. > :08:02.people fear about Europe and which they

:08:03. > :08:13.Frets, bullying and hectoring will not work with the British people.

:08:14. > :08:16.What we need to do now is accept the result

:08:17. > :08:18.of the referendum and build a relationship that is mutually

:08:19. > :08:32.A Scottish Nationalist NEP earned a standing ovation when he declared

:08:33. > :08:36.the people of Scotland had not let Europe down and there was a

:08:37. > :08:38.similarly warm reception to Sinn Fein's assertion that they didn't

:08:39. > :08:41.feel bound by the UK decision. We stand by the vote

:08:42. > :08:43.of the people of the north of Ireland,

:08:44. > :08:45.just like Scotland, We accept, we respect

:08:46. > :08:55.and we will defend the wishes of the people

:08:56. > :09:01.of the North of Ireland. However, if English votes

:09:02. > :09:04.drag us out of the EU, that would be like Britannia

:09:05. > :09:21.waives the rules. Wright in Brussels, the stark

:09:22. > :09:24.differences between the two main partners in the power-sharing

:09:25. > :09:27.executive where clear for all to see, a sign of the task facing

:09:28. > :09:31.Stormont ministers when they meet tomorrow to try and find some common

:09:32. > :09:33.ground in the wake of last week's referendum.

:09:34. > :09:36.The founder of Wrightbus has told the BBC that the number one reason

:09:37. > :09:42.for him backing Brexit was getting controls on immigration.

:09:43. > :09:44.William Wright says quitting the EU is nothing businesses should

:09:45. > :09:48.But another firm which supported remain feels the local economy has

:09:49. > :09:52.This report from our business correspondent,

:09:53. > :10:00.Julian O'Neill, contains some flash photography.

:10:01. > :10:09.William Wright shows off his new electric London bus, his outlook

:10:10. > :10:13.buoyed by the Brexit result. He was the big name business supporter of

:10:14. > :10:16.the Leave campaign in Northern Ireland and feels the outcome was a

:10:17. > :10:22.victory for the campaign underdogs. The good and the bright and the

:10:23. > :10:30.bankers and all of the people who said we had last and all the doom

:10:31. > :10:33.and gloom that was going to be going on, it was just overboard. The

:10:34. > :10:37.immigration crisis was the one that turned me because the bureaucrats in

:10:38. > :10:43.Brussels -- Brussels didn't know how to deal with that. Best known for

:10:44. > :10:48.its Boris Bass, Wrightbus is a global business selling much more in

:10:49. > :10:51.the UK and Far East and in Europe. While it sees Brexit as liberating,

:10:52. > :10:58.other export businesses are more worried. Take agri- food company,

:10:59. > :11:02.mashed direct. We don't know who were going to be with profits for

:11:03. > :11:06.the impact on our costs, we don't know what the impact will be in

:11:07. > :11:10.terms of the pressures that will be on our customers, supermarkets in

:11:11. > :11:13.the UK. We have been kicked in the back of the legs. We want to grow

:11:14. > :11:18.Northern Ireland to be the location of business that it should be. Why

:11:19. > :11:20.put ourselves in this position, when the people of Northern Ireland did

:11:21. > :11:22.not vote for business that it should be. Why put ourselves in this

:11:23. > :11:25.position, when the people of Northern Ireland did not portray? I

:11:26. > :11:27.may not be an economist but I don't see any reason for it... They

:11:28. > :11:40.followed the pound doesn't bother you? It's amazing because we sell a

:11:41. > :11:49.lot. We're selling to places like Hong Kong. We might be able to sell

:11:50. > :11:52.more. A little bit like William Wright, invest in high as trying to

:11:53. > :11:57.lean left some of the word gloomier predictions about where the cart

:11:58. > :12:02.economy may be heading. It says opportunities still exist to attract

:12:03. > :12:06.foreign companies and that the majority of firms investing here in

:12:07. > :12:07.recent years did not come to Northern Ireland for EU market

:12:08. > :12:10.access. Still to come on the

:12:11. > :12:19.programme before seven: The parents who lost for sons who

:12:20. > :12:25.gave their lives after signing up for a World War I.

:12:26. > :12:28.The Education Minister Peter Weir has decided to change the way pupils

:12:29. > :12:29.get their GCSE grades in Northern Ireland.

:12:30. > :12:32.In future, many pupils will get their results in the form

:12:33. > :12:34.of letters and numbers, as our education correspondent

:12:35. > :12:46.This is the latest in a series of decision by education ministers.

:12:47. > :12:50.Nearly every young person takes GCSEs but there is going to be

:12:51. > :12:56.significant change in the results. Pupils here it gets GCSE results

:12:57. > :13:03.from... In England from next year, people will get great from nine to

:13:04. > :13:07.one nine is the highest and one is the lowest. A quarter of GCSEs here

:13:08. > :13:13.are taken by English exam boards. John O'Dowd wanted to keep letter

:13:14. > :13:17.grade here but they said no. They were going to pull out until his

:13:18. > :13:25.successor said this today. They will be able to access GCS E courses.

:13:26. > :13:29.Depending upon the position of schools, some pupils will leave

:13:30. > :13:40.school with a mixture of letters and numbers for the results.

:13:41. > :13:47.Principals who met the Minister today welcomed the change. The move

:13:48. > :13:52.from the alphabetical to the numerical system will be clear,

:13:53. > :13:58.equitable and it's a matter of people getting used to it. It brings

:13:59. > :14:04.to schools flexibility and choice again. We were restricted very much

:14:05. > :14:08.before and know we can look at quality and is, specifications that

:14:09. > :14:12.are matched much better to the needs of our young people. This won't

:14:13. > :14:16.affect any pupils getting their GCSE results at schools like this this

:14:17. > :14:21.summer. There may be some initial confusion and a couple of years when

:14:22. > :14:25.the two grading systems are first used side-by-side. This is Peter

:14:26. > :14:26.Weir's first decision as education minister. More tests are sure to

:14:27. > :14:28.follow. It was a case of deja vu

:14:29. > :14:31.for the Queen today. She retraced a picturesque rail

:14:32. > :14:33.journey which she took a month The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh also

:14:34. > :14:40.went to the Giant's Causeway during a visit that

:14:41. > :14:42.marks her 90th birthday. Here's our north-east

:14:43. > :14:55.reporter Sara Girvan. Yesterday, it was Hillsborough can

:14:56. > :14:59.and the Queen, marking her 90th birthday, to the north coast of

:15:00. > :15:03.Northern Ireland. First up was the Giant's Causeway. The weather wasn't

:15:04. > :15:08.kind but the Queen and Jacob Edinburgh still enjoyed the view at

:15:09. > :15:11.one of Northern Ireland's most iconic landmarks. The royal visitors

:15:12. > :15:18.even surprised some unsuspecting tourists. We didn't think we'd be

:15:19. > :15:22.able to come down here, and not be able to see the Giant's Causeway and

:15:23. > :15:26.not only did we see it but we had a bonus. My kids are going to love

:15:27. > :15:30.this back industrially. This is part of the tour and we had no idea she

:15:31. > :15:36.was going to be here until this morning. Next stop was Bushmills

:15:37. > :15:41.with the Queen unveiled a statue of World War I hero. Her grandfather,

:15:42. > :15:44.George V, had presented him with a Victoria Cross for bravery during

:15:45. > :15:51.the Battle of the Somme. The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh met him at

:15:52. > :15:58.themselves in 1953. His family said having power at the ceremony was a

:15:59. > :16:03.great honour. It was almost like things coming full circle to have

:16:04. > :16:10.that connection. It was wonderful that the two of them came back here,

:16:11. > :16:15.over 60 years later, to give the Royal seal of approval on the

:16:16. > :16:19.statue. Those who come to see the Royals said it was a momentous day

:16:20. > :16:23.for Bushmills. I don't think the Queen has been to Bushmills, I know

:16:24. > :16:26.she's been to the north-east area before but not a Bushmills and

:16:27. > :16:33.probably in our lifetime, she will not be back again unfortunately. It

:16:34. > :16:44.was great. Yes, it was worth it, fantastic. We should all try to be

:16:45. > :16:51.as brave as he was that day 100 years ago. From here in a Bushmills

:16:52. > :16:57.people are already laying tributes at the statue. It was onto Coleraine

:16:58. > :17:03.with the Queen be traced a journey she first made during her Coronation

:17:04. > :17:07.year. Enthusiastic well-wishers gathered in Coleraine to catch a

:17:08. > :17:14.glance at the royal couple. It was for them a moment to savour. Is very

:17:15. > :17:18.nice lady. Wonderful, great for the families and the town and great for

:17:19. > :17:23.the tourist area of Coleraine. It was great for these guys to come and

:17:24. > :17:30.see her. For 190 ruled who shares the same birthday as the monarch,

:17:31. > :17:34.the 21st of April 1926, it was a special day. The very same day. I

:17:35. > :17:49.think she's marvellous and what she does. I can't say I followed her

:17:50. > :17:53.from when she was a child. She was always a gentle person. The royal

:17:54. > :17:58.couple arrives to take a trip back in time aboard a steam train. The

:17:59. > :18:03.five carriage train built in Manchester in 1932 was provided by

:18:04. > :18:07.the Railway preservation Society with a special VIP journey. It is

:18:08. > :18:14.not the first time the Queen travelled on this rail line. She was

:18:15. > :18:21.here in her Coronation year in 1953, a journey between Les Brown and

:18:22. > :18:27.Derry. The railway station at Bellarena was first opened in 1853

:18:28. > :18:34.and serves a role population. The new station was officially opened by

:18:35. > :18:38.the Queen who unveiled a plaque. Although it was only a short 25

:18:39. > :18:43.minute train journey from Coleraine, it proved a memorable occasion for

:18:44. > :18:50.the children who got to travel in style with the royal couple. It's a

:18:51. > :18:54.good experience. I think it's quite surreal, I suppose not many people

:18:55. > :19:04.get this opportunity. It's a good time to appreciate it. FT that will

:19:05. > :19:09.live long in the memory. -- a day. So ends the Queen's 25th trip to

:19:10. > :19:13.Northern Ireland and it's been a visit of mixed emotions. The

:19:14. > :19:16.jubilation of 90th birthday celebrations and the poignancy of

:19:17. > :19:17.the Battle of the Somme commemoration is just day before the

:19:18. > :19:18.centenary. And we'll have a special programme

:19:19. > :19:21.to mark the Queen's 90th birthday, where William Crawley looks back

:19:22. > :19:23.on her many visits to Northern Ireland over

:19:24. > :19:26.the last six decades. That's at 5.15PM this

:19:27. > :19:32.Sunday on BBC One. And we will also be broadcasting

:19:33. > :19:35.live from Thiepval in France to mark the 100th anniversary of the Battle

:19:36. > :19:38.of the Somme with a special commemorative service

:19:39. > :19:39.at the Ulster Tower. When the First World War broke out

:19:40. > :19:50.in 1914, thousands of men from across Ulster signed

:19:51. > :19:53.up to fight. They included the four sons

:19:54. > :19:57.of the Lynn family, from Coalisland. Sara Neill finds out more

:19:58. > :20:11.about the County Tyrone family For sons fighting in the greatest

:20:12. > :20:14.battle. It was something they appearance James and Elizabeth Lynn

:20:15. > :20:20.from the Coalisland would have been very proud of but they would pay the

:20:21. > :20:28.ultimate prize. In each case, a letter comes home, dear, Mr and Mrs

:20:29. > :20:35.Lynn, etc. First, it was Robert. Then William, just 21, fatally

:20:36. > :20:40.wounded at the Battle of the Somme in 1916. William Lynn went out to go

:20:41. > :20:45.and get a stretcher to get a wounded colleague. The artillery fort --

:20:46. > :20:50.fire was rife at the time. He dived to try and sees himself but the

:20:51. > :20:55.shell directly hit him and he was killed. His commanding officer wrote

:20:56. > :21:00.home, he died a gallant soldier's death and one of his comrades wrote,

:21:01. > :21:06.his father and mother would have the consolation that he died a hero's

:21:07. > :21:11.death. Less than a month later, John was killed in a gas attack in the

:21:12. > :21:19.trenches. There was one son left. The War office decided it was time

:21:20. > :21:23.to send James home. James returned to Coalisland. He didn't stay very

:21:24. > :21:30.very long, possibly soldiering was in his blood, Coalisland properly

:21:31. > :21:37.seemed tame after what he had experienced. So, he being listed. In

:21:38. > :21:42.1920, hosted the Palestine, James had become the fourth son of the

:21:43. > :21:49.Lynn to die in active service. Sergeant James Lynn knew he was not

:21:50. > :21:55.a well man and he scrawled a note to his commanding officer asking him to

:21:56. > :22:01.contact his mother, and write to his mother. On the other part of the

:22:02. > :22:07.note, he wrote to himself, Sergeant James Lynn last on the line. The

:22:08. > :22:11.death of Robert, William, John and James meant there were no signs left

:22:12. > :22:15.to carry on the Lynn name. They are remembered here at the family Church

:22:16. > :22:20.in this plaque which lists the heavy loss felt by their appearance. It

:22:21. > :22:25.must have been so dramatic, it's untrue. Although both my

:22:26. > :22:31.grandparents lived till quite an advanced age, and quite sure they

:22:32. > :22:32.never forgot the trauma of 1914 to 1920.

:22:33. > :22:35.57 Syrian refugees arrived in Northern Ireland today.

:22:36. > :22:37.They'll be living in the Craigavon area.

:22:38. > :22:42.They are the third group of people to come here in the last six months.

:22:43. > :22:44.Tara Mills has been speaking to three teenagers who've

:22:45. > :22:52.arrived in December to see how they've settled.

:22:53. > :23:01.Two brothers and a sister living in your life any country they've never

:23:02. > :23:06.even heard of six months ago. They have missed several years of school

:23:07. > :23:10.between them when they moved from Syria to Lebanon, they had to find

:23:11. > :23:17.jobs. That is making life in school here quite tough. It's difficult. It
