:00:25. > :00:28.she was targeted within weeks of starting to use online chatrooms.

:00:29. > :00:30.The new Stormont spin doctor whose appointment has sparked criticism

:00:31. > :00:36.New details emerge of last week's search in the Arlene

:00:43. > :00:51.As Bethany Firth heads home with four Paralympic medals, we're

:00:52. > :00:57.And the dry weather is set to continue tomorrow,

:00:58. > :01:06.I'll tell you later in the programme.

:01:07. > :01:12.More than 160 children in Northern Ireland called Childline

:01:13. > :01:16.last year with concerns about online sexual abuse.

:01:17. > :01:21.Across the UK, there was a 21% rise in calls to the child helpline

:01:22. > :01:23.about online grooming, and efforts are being stepped up

:01:24. > :01:36.What may seem harmless can often become dangerous.

:01:37. > :01:38.Chatting online to people you don't know.

:01:39. > :01:40.One teenager, based in Northern Ireland,

:01:41. > :01:44.who was recently targeted by older men has been speaking out.

:01:45. > :01:46.She doesn't want her identity known, but she wants everyone to know

:01:47. > :02:03.Probably within the first week, maybe two weeks of being on there I

:02:04. > :02:10.had to be Michael Mann approach me of all ages. They would ask me to

:02:11. > :02:18.take my clothes of oncoming. -- two men. Whitson, I think it was the

:02:19. > :02:25.same day, we started talking, he had my phone number and may e-mail

:02:26. > :02:30.address. It was a typical nuclear family. There was no divorce, I

:02:31. > :02:34.wasn't in care. There was nothing where you would think I was a

:02:35. > :02:40.vulnerable child. But he still crave this. There other teenagers who feel

:02:41. > :02:47.trapped in a similar situation. What would you tell them? As soon as you

:02:48. > :02:52.tell someone, a weight lifted off your shoulders. It is definitely not

:02:53. > :02:57.worth the pain. What advice would you give the parents who say this

:02:58. > :03:00.could be happening in their household? Don't be naive. Don't

:03:01. > :03:04.think that just because you're answering them that they can find

:03:05. > :03:08.ways around it because I did. I knew that they were monitoring my laptop

:03:09. > :03:13.so I would start using a different computer, speak to your child, let

:03:14. > :03:18.them know they can talk to you no matter what. Don't let them feel

:03:19. > :03:22.they can have their phone taken away or internet taken away, just make it

:03:23. > :03:25.so that they want to talk to you. They don't need that person in their

:03:26. > :03:31.life because they have their parents.

:03:32. > :03:33.Childline took 164 calls last year from young people

:03:34. > :03:43.Parents need to be observant about what their children are doing.

:03:44. > :03:46.Children have lots of freedom online and we shouldn't try to take that

:03:47. > :03:50.away from them but we should seek to involve ourselves on what children

:03:51. > :03:54.are doing online. Talk to them about it and be aware about what source on

:03:55. > :03:59.the truck platforms they are using. Experts say that any parent who

:04:00. > :04:05.don't think they need to pay close attention needs to think again.

:04:06. > :04:07.The Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness has defended

:04:08. > :04:09.using special legal powers to appoint a new Stormont

:04:10. > :04:14.David Gordon was given the ?75,000-a-year job

:04:15. > :04:18.The First and Deputy First Minister used Royal Prerogative

:04:19. > :04:21.to change the law to push the appointment through.

:04:22. > :04:23.That promoted an angry reaction from the opposition

:04:24. > :04:26.Here's our political correspondent Gareth Gordon.

:04:27. > :04:30.This is David Gordon, the man whose job will be to improve

:04:31. > :04:32.the story around the Stormont Executive.

:04:33. > :04:38.Instead he's become the story, hardly what was intended.

:04:39. > :04:42.The Oxford English Dictionary says the job of a spin doctor is to give

:04:43. > :04:46.a favourable interpretation of events to the media.

:04:47. > :04:50.It could be said the way David Gordon's appointment has been

:04:51. > :04:55.handled by the Executive shows exactly why they need one.

:04:56. > :04:57.The First and Deputy First ministers say they want

:04:58. > :05:00.their new press secretary to provide them with expert advice

:05:01. > :05:03.and spearhead the communication of Stormont's policies.

:05:04. > :05:06.But its emerged the law was changed using a highly unusual procedure

:05:07. > :05:09.called a Royal Prerogative so that the post could be filled

:05:10. > :05:14.The subject dominated Question Time in the Assembly,

:05:15. > :05:21.with Martin McGuinness the butt of many jokes.

:05:22. > :05:28.I would like to ask you what further the place we can expect from Kim

:05:29. > :05:31.Jong run on message management within the Northern Ireland

:05:32. > :05:35.Executive. As we know the rule was created using the royal prerogative

:05:36. > :05:38.is so can I ask you as a proud republican could you confirm you

:05:39. > :05:48.feel about exercising the powers of Monica? I feel grand. As to the

:05:49. > :05:51.legality of the method... Do was absolutely no secrecy or underhand

:05:52. > :05:58.dealings. LAUGHTER

:05:59. > :06:01.Some minority members can laugh all they like, but the appointment of

:06:02. > :06:07.the press secretary was legally compliant. We have 55 press officers

:06:08. > :06:15.working in government press officers. Yes. Yes. 55. Not the

:06:16. > :06:18.inflated figure some others are trained to use. And perhaps if

:06:19. > :06:21.people ask the question rather than run to the media, you might get to

:06:22. > :06:23.the truth. As a journalist, David Gordon had

:06:24. > :06:25.a reputation for being fearless in pursuit of a story,

:06:26. > :06:28.often to the embarrassment of the Executive he will

:06:29. > :06:30.now be working for. But outside the Stormont bubble,

:06:31. > :06:44.does anyone really care? We elected Assembly to make the

:06:45. > :06:47.laws, to change the laws. Else thinks that they can at the stroke

:06:48. > :06:54.of a pen change the law with no regard to the Assembly then what is

:06:55. > :06:55.next? This is a retreat power at its worst and if they get away with that

:06:56. > :06:57.on this occasion... Martin McGuinness says the story

:06:58. > :07:00.will be a two-day wonder. Can the Executive's

:07:01. > :07:05.opponents prove him wrong? A Royal Marine from Larne who's

:07:06. > :07:07.accused of terrorism, fraud and drugs offences will stand

:07:08. > :07:11.trial in February. Ciaran Maxwell is charged

:07:12. > :07:15.with making explosives and storing them in hides in England

:07:16. > :07:17.and Northern Ireland. He appeared at the Old Bailey

:07:18. > :07:20.via video link from Belmarsh A trial date was set

:07:21. > :07:27.for 27 February. The inquest into the death

:07:28. > :07:29.of Arlene Arkinson has been told her family has endured

:07:30. > :07:32.an emotional week after a fresh search failed to locate

:07:33. > :07:36.the schoolgirl's remains. The police operation

:07:37. > :07:39.near the village of Killen in West Tyrone ended on Saturday

:07:40. > :07:42.when nothing suspicious was found. This is the derelict farm

:07:43. > :07:48.where forensic experts spent two days carrying out the latest search

:07:49. > :07:52.for the remains of Arlene Arkinson. It began when a farmer who rents

:07:53. > :07:57.the land found what appeared Today at Belfast Coroner's Court,

:07:58. > :08:01.details of the extent of last week's digs were revealed by

:08:02. > :08:04.the senior police officer In a statement, Detective Chief

:08:05. > :08:08.Superintendent Raymond Murray said police were first informed

:08:09. > :08:12.about the potential grave by the owner of an unoccupied

:08:13. > :08:16.property in Killen. When specialists completed their

:08:17. > :08:18.excavation of the site on Friday, they discovered a second area

:08:19. > :08:22.of disturbed ground. The scene was held for an extra day

:08:23. > :08:27.to allow for further excavation, but only an old sceptic

:08:28. > :08:32.tank was found. The court was told that no

:08:33. > :08:41.outstanding lines of inquiry had Arlene Arkinson was disappeared in

:08:42. > :08:47.1994. Arlene Arkinson's family weren't

:08:48. > :08:49.present at today's hearing, but their lawyer read out

:08:50. > :08:51.a statement on their behalf. Kathleen Arkinson and her family

:08:52. > :08:54.said they have had what can only be They added that they have to remain

:08:55. > :08:59.hopeful while being bitterly disappointed that Arlene's remains

:09:00. > :09:02.have not yet been found. Today's hearing was also told that

:09:03. > :09:05.legislation has been changed in the Republic which will enable

:09:06. > :09:08.the Garda to cooperate A meeting between the coroner's

:09:09. > :09:12.legal representatives and officials from the Republic's State

:09:13. > :09:17.Solicitor's Office is to take place after the Irish Justice Minister

:09:18. > :09:19.Frances Fitzgerald authorised The inquest was adjourned

:09:20. > :09:28.until 7 October. How a plan to develop this derelict

:09:29. > :09:33.site has been called The Executive has pledged ?7 million

:09:34. > :09:45.towards the development While there's been widespread

:09:46. > :09:52.welcome in the North West, the Green Party has questioned

:09:53. > :09:55.whether it's due to the fact the airport is in the Deputy First

:09:56. > :09:57.Minister's backyard. Steven Agnew says the money seems

:09:58. > :10:00.to have been found down the back of the sofa after Ryanair announced

:10:01. > :10:03.last week it was ending its flights Deputy First Minister Martin

:10:04. > :10:09.McGuinness believes the airport's growth remains crucial to the North

:10:10. > :10:12.West. The Executive's providing

:10:13. > :10:16.?7 million towards that. ?2.5 million will be used

:10:17. > :10:29.to secure new destinations. It is understood the board of the

:10:30. > :10:31.report are speaking to a number of airlines at the moment about

:10:32. > :10:34.developing new routes to Birmingham and Manchester. Other options will

:10:35. > :10:35.be considered also. Ryanair's London Stansted flight

:10:36. > :10:38.will end in March 2017 and management's trying to secure

:10:39. > :10:40.a new connection through It was set up to help maintain

:10:41. > :10:54.regional air links to London. The PSL application which is the

:10:55. > :10:58.public service obligation application for the London route is

:10:59. > :11:01.now in place and it is working its way to the system and it is

:11:02. > :11:05.progressing very well. We very confident that at least one or a

:11:06. > :11:08.number of airlines will respond to that opportunity and we will have a

:11:09. > :11:10.replacement service hopefully the beginning the spring of next year.

:11:11. > :11:12.Management also want to develop an aircraft

:11:13. > :11:15.?4.5 million is being spent on airport infrastructure to help

:11:16. > :11:28.Could that create many jobs? It could create a large number of

:11:29. > :11:34.highly qualified and well paid jobs here in the Northwest. For the

:11:35. > :11:37.airport there wouldn't be a great amount of difference, but for the

:11:38. > :11:42.region it would be highly beneficial. Possibly up to 70-100

:11:43. > :11:43.jobs. The Green Party has questioned

:11:44. > :11:56.the rationale of ?7 million support They worry as there is no strategic

:11:57. > :12:00.thought. The money seems to have been bunked down the back of the

:12:01. > :12:02.silver and we don't have an air transport strategy and I think we

:12:03. > :12:06.would see an approach that is good for the people of Northern Ireland,

:12:07. > :12:08.not just the Deputy First Minister's constituents.

:12:09. > :12:10.Ultimately the aim is to make the airport more self-sufficient

:12:11. > :12:13.so it doesn't have to rely on an annual subsidy

:12:14. > :12:19.It's understood Sport NI has settled an industrial tribunal case brought

:12:20. > :12:22.by the whistle-blower who raised concerns over plans

:12:23. > :12:29.Sport NI says it's unable to comment on the matter.

:12:30. > :12:34.Paul Scott should have been at a tribunal hearing today.

:12:35. > :12:36.Instead the case against his employers has been removed

:12:37. > :12:42.The action centred on how Sport NI treated Mr Scott after he appeared

:12:43. > :12:46.in front of Stormont's Culture, Arts and Leisure Committee last year.

:12:47. > :12:49.Then, he voiced concerns about emergency exiting

:12:50. > :12:52.arrangements at the proposed 38,000-seater stadium,

:12:53. > :12:55.and claimed he was put under "undue pressure" to approve the plans

:12:56. > :13:07.The pressure exerted upon me has been so significant that they felt

:13:08. > :13:12.in December 2014 that I have no choice but to raise a complaint of

:13:13. > :13:14.bullying and to Russert that harassment.

:13:15. > :13:17.His comments prompted investigations into both the safety of the proposed

:13:18. > :13:19.new stadium and into allegations of bullying at Sport NI.

:13:20. > :13:21.A Cabinet Office report made a number of recommendations

:13:22. > :13:25.on safety, and a separate report rejected claims of bullying.

:13:26. > :13:28.It's understood the agreement reached between Mr Scott and Sport

:13:29. > :13:33.NI has yet to be formally signed, but a former member of the Culture

:13:34. > :13:36.Arts and Leisure Committee says he believes it means the safety

:13:37. > :13:46.Paul Scott gave a professional opinion to the committee

:13:47. > :13:49.which I very much agreed with, the blue light emergency

:13:50. > :13:51.services agree with it, the national body agreed with it,

:13:52. > :13:54.so therefore he has been professionally vindicated.

:13:55. > :13:57.The GAA is currently working on a new planning application

:13:58. > :14:03.A group representing families of people shot dead by the army

:14:04. > :14:06.in Ballymurphy has walked out of a meeting with the Secretary

:14:07. > :14:11.A spokesman told the BBC, "The meeting was going nowhere."

:14:12. > :14:13.Campaigners want an independent panel to investigate the events

:14:14. > :14:20.of 1971 when 11 people were shot by soldiers.

:14:21. > :14:28.We walked out because it was going round in circles. He refused to

:14:29. > :14:32.answer the question and refused to tell the families what he intends to

:14:33. > :14:39.do around the legacy inquest. He just kept on referring to the

:14:40. > :14:44.Executive about releasing the funds. Basically it is down to Arlene

:14:45. > :14:45.Foster and James Brokenshire. The British government can make

:14:46. > :14:47.decisions around this here. The re-creation of a

:14:48. > :14:52.turn-of-the-century airplane - People living near Belfast City

:14:53. > :15:02.Centre say they're against plans for an office complex which they've

:15:03. > :15:06.described as a "monstrosity" Residents of the Markets area say

:15:07. > :15:11.they're not against development of the site, but don't

:15:12. > :15:15.want what's planned. Belfast councillors

:15:16. > :15:17.will decide tomorrow. Here's our Environment

:15:18. > :15:21.Correspondent Conor Macauley. If approved there'll be four office

:15:22. > :15:23.blocks on this site. One will be 14 storeys

:15:24. > :15:27.at its highest point, another ten storeys tall,

:15:28. > :15:29.though there'll be They're close to homes

:15:30. > :15:35.in the Markets area. Too close, say residents

:15:36. > :15:46.like Iggy McGroarty. It is the height of it. It is going

:15:47. > :15:50.to be well above the Central Station and the houses. It will darken a lot

:15:51. > :15:51.of people's houses. There are concerns too

:15:52. > :15:54.that the office blocks will impact on a ?2.5 million project

:15:55. > :15:56.to revitalise these bricked up tunnels, turning them

:15:57. > :15:58.into community businesses There'll be a 10-metre

:15:59. > :16:11.strip between the tunnels I am all for the development of the

:16:12. > :16:17.city but that has to sit in context of what residential needs are as

:16:18. > :16:20.well. The two have to work hand-in-hand. Last year planners

:16:21. > :16:23.turned down a nine story development for this site so locals are trying

:16:24. > :16:25.to understand that something at its highest point is 14 stories tall is

:16:26. > :16:28.now being referendum for approval. This is a ?55 million development,

:16:29. > :16:31.which it's hoped could Supporters say quality office

:16:32. > :16:46.accommodation is needed The fact is that the site is a

:16:47. > :16:50.derelict site and it is owned for this type of development. It has

:16:51. > :16:52.meant all the planning requirements and we should approve it.

:16:53. > :16:54.Belfast councillors will decide whether the scheme gets approval.

:16:55. > :16:59.They'll consider it at a meeting tomorrow evening.

:17:00. > :17:03.Now to a programme coming up on BBC One this evening -

:17:04. > :17:06.an ambitious project to rebuild a turn of the century

:17:07. > :17:09.aeroplane, originally flown by County Down's Harry Ferguson.

:17:10. > :17:12.A team made up of engineers, ship-builders and aviation experts

:17:13. > :17:18.are hoping to get the craft off the ground, as Sara Neill reports.

:17:19. > :17:20.It's a journey through the skies that hasn't been made

:17:21. > :17:25.Now presenter Dick Strawbridge is keeping a close eye on the modern

:17:26. > :17:30.day engineers and pilots rebuilding Harry Ferguson's aeroplane,

:17:31. > :17:33.in BBC One's The Great Flying Challenge.

:17:34. > :17:36.He's known for his tractors, but it was Harry's fascination

:17:37. > :17:41.with aviation that drove him to become the first Irishman to fly

:17:42. > :17:45.and the first person from the UK to build and fly his own aeroplane

:17:46. > :17:52.in 1909 - with a few hiccups along the way.

:17:53. > :18:01.When the machine crashed into the Strand, tied with terrible force, Mr

:18:02. > :18:03.Ferguson was flung violently from his seat. His face is striking the

:18:04. > :18:04.left must of the craft. But how does his linen-covered

:18:05. > :18:07.design stand up today? Is a century-old plane strong

:18:08. > :18:16.enough to take flight? A press machine will simulate became

:18:17. > :18:20.before as they would will have to withstand in-flight. If this

:18:21. > :18:25.happened in fight who would be calling an ambulance. I can see a

:18:26. > :18:27.plane coming together very slowly. There is a big that it will fly. We

:18:28. > :18:28.just need the weather. So, with the weather

:18:29. > :18:30.forecast on their side, it's time to fire up the engines

:18:31. > :18:39.and hope for the best. A simple taxi run almost ends in

:18:40. > :18:41.disaster. With one disappointment

:18:42. > :18:43.under their wings, and with winds picking up, the team are left

:18:44. > :18:46.wondering if they'll ever Can they get Harry's plane under

:18:47. > :18:49.control and into the air? Now sport, and Bethany Firth

:18:50. > :18:59.is on her way back from Rio with four medals from the Paralympic

:19:00. > :19:02.Games. Stephen Watson is where she put

:19:03. > :19:04.in the hard work that Ards Leisure Centre is where it

:19:05. > :19:17.all began for Bethany Firth. Like these young people behind me

:19:18. > :19:19.tonight, she trained here morning and night in pursuit

:19:20. > :19:21.of swimming success. At the weekend she finished

:19:22. > :19:27.the Paralympic Games as the most decorated athlete for Great Britain

:19:28. > :19:32.and Northern Ireland. Her victory in the pool on Saturday

:19:33. > :19:37.night in the 200 metres individual medley final brought her personal

:19:38. > :19:40.medal tally up to three golds A truly remarkable haul

:19:41. > :19:59.that was the best for any individual I am so happy with everything I have

:20:00. > :20:02.achieved here. It has been an amazing atmosphere. I am so proud to

:20:03. > :20:10.be out here. Which of those medals means most to you? I think they all

:20:11. > :20:11.mean the same to me. I trained really hard in all four strokes for

:20:12. > :20:20.each medal so I am happy I got them. one out of all of them. I am down to

:20:21. > :20:24.note joined now by Stephen McConnell who is one of the cultures. What a

:20:25. > :20:28.performance by this Tiberius Young sportswoman. How proud are you at

:20:29. > :20:32.what he has achieved? The guys in the club are just delighted for

:20:33. > :20:37.Bethany's success. A brilliant athlete and it blamed couple of

:20:38. > :20:40.weeks and we look forward to welcoming home tomorrow. As we look

:20:41. > :20:45.at all these young people working very hard, how big an inspiration

:20:46. > :20:50.has Bethany been to them? She is the ultimate athlete for us. They can

:20:51. > :20:54.look at Bethany and note that in a bit of time down the road they can

:20:55. > :20:58.go to an Olympic Games but the butt of hard work and time. Bethany is

:20:59. > :21:03.obviously a superpower Olympian, do you think she is good enough to

:21:04. > :21:09.compete against able-bodied summers at the Olympic Games one-day? She...

:21:10. > :21:14.Who knows what'll happen near future. I wouldn't be surprised. I'm

:21:15. > :21:19.sure it will be some homecoming. Yes, they were watching TV when she

:21:20. > :21:25.won the medal so we are looking forward to seeing her home. Swimming

:21:26. > :21:30.here seems to be a real hotbed of young talent. 160 young people at

:21:31. > :21:36.all levels humming through. About 30 or 40 at the top level. We are

:21:37. > :21:41.looking forward to the future. How much dedication and hard work has

:21:42. > :21:45.Bethany had to undertake to achieve her Paralympic dream? She has come

:21:49. > :21:52.her and he has done amazing coming back. A great athlete and great role

:21:53. > :21:58.model for all the young people. Very much so. They can see that a bit of

:21:59. > :22:01.hard work and you can make it to an Olympic Games. Thank you. Everyone

:22:02. > :22:05.here very proud of Bethany Firth. It was an eventful weekend

:22:06. > :22:08.for current Northern Ireland's world In Race One of the Superbike

:22:09. > :22:12.Championship in Germany, Rea crashed That meant his series lead

:22:13. > :22:19.was dramatically slashed. So, a big dent in his ambition

:22:20. > :22:22.to retain the title But in treacherous conditions

:22:23. > :22:25.yesterday, Rea bounced back In heavy rain he worked his way

:22:26. > :22:34.through to take the lead, passing his team mate and nearest

:22:35. > :22:38.challenger Tom Sykes. He later slipped out of the race,

:22:39. > :22:41.with the Ulsterman taking the victory and restoring his

:22:42. > :22:43.advantage to 47 points. There are just three rounds

:22:44. > :22:46.remaining, with the next in France In local football's

:22:54. > :22:55.to the season continues. They extended their unbeaten

:22:56. > :22:59.run to eight games. Their nearest challengers Linfield

:23:00. > :23:01.are the only other team Nial Foster starts his

:23:02. > :23:15.report at the Oval. Crusaders stretched their lead at

:23:16. > :23:21.the top of the table to five points. Calls from Cubs, Jordan Owens and

:23:22. > :23:26.Declan Caddell helped the chaplains to a 3-1 win over Glentoran. Second

:23:27. > :23:29.placed Linfield defeated Carrick Rangers 2-0 with Ross Gaynor atoning

:23:30. > :23:34.for his earlier penalty miss as his cross is needed into the back of the

:23:35. > :23:39.net. Eliminate United moved into third position in the table. Strikes

:23:40. > :23:45.from Kyle Owens and Jonathan McMurray helped them to a 2-0 win

:23:46. > :23:52.over Portadown. In North Belfast, Daniel Hughes guided Cliftonville to

:23:53. > :23:55.a 1-0 victory over Coleraine. Ballinamallard United made it back

:23:56. > :24:02.to back wins with a 2-1 win over Ards. The scoring was opened after

:24:03. > :24:09.just two minutes. In Dungannon there were two goals and three red cards

:24:10. > :24:12.as they drew 1-1 with Blaenavon. Gary Hamilton hit the roof and

:24:13. > :24:14.watched the remainder of the game from the stands after receiving his

:24:15. > :24:17.marching orders. -- quite another. In Gaelic Games, The All Ireland

:24:18. > :24:22.Senior Football Final has gone to a replay after Dublin and Mayo

:24:23. > :24:25.fought out a draw at Mayo, looking to end a 65-year wait

:24:26. > :24:30.for the Sam Maguire Trophy, scored not one but two own goals

:24:31. > :24:34.in the first half of the game - and were trailing deep

:24:35. > :24:36.into injury time when a point from Cillian O'Connor

:24:37. > :24:41.snatched the draw. It was a good weekend

:24:42. > :24:49.for the Belfast Giants with back-to-back wins

:24:50. > :24:51.in the Challenge Cup. On Saturday night they beat

:24:52. > :24:55.the Edinburgh Capitals 3-1 at home, before winning the organisation's

:24:56. > :24:58.1000th game in a 5-3 win away Finally, boxer Paddy Barnes,

:24:59. > :25:10.who announced he was turning pro last week, today confirmed he has

:25:11. > :25:13.signed a professional deal with the Marbella-based

:25:14. > :25:27.Matthew Macklin Gym. He says he will be a world champion.

:25:28. > :25:31.Who are we to disagree? Here, everyone tonight is celebrating the

:25:32. > :25:38.golden girl Bethany Firth. Barra Best is here with the weather. Not

:25:39. > :25:42.bad for the time of year. But autumnal and there is more of the

:25:43. > :25:45.same. Tonight it may turn a little bit chilly especially in the

:25:46. > :25:48.countryside where we have some clearing skies allowing temperatures

:25:49. > :25:53.to dip into single figures. Most towns and cities will stay in double

:25:54. > :25:57.figures. Tomorrow much like today it will be plenty of dry weather. Some

:25:58. > :26:01.sunshine coming and going but there will be a lot of cloud coming

:26:02. > :26:05.across. It won't always be sunny. To begin with we should begin to see

:26:06. > :26:08.some good sunny gaps particularly in the beginning of the day. The best

:26:09. > :26:13.chance of seeing most of the sunshine will be across the East

:26:14. > :26:18.Coast. 16 or 17 Celsius. A bit cloudy further west. Where we hold

:26:19. > :26:21.the cloud, 14 or 15. If you're travelling across Britain or Ireland

:26:22. > :26:28.tomorrow it is the same across places. Perhaps a few showers in

:26:29. > :26:31.monster. Elsewhere it is a dry picture with temperatures around the

:26:32. > :26:37.mid to high teens. Thrust into tomorrow evening the gaps will come

:26:38. > :26:40.and go over all of us. A chance of some wet weather creeping into part

:26:41. > :26:43.of the West for a while tomorrow evening. It should not amount to

:26:44. > :26:47.very much and may be just the odd isolated shower as we get into

:26:48. > :26:51.tomorrow night. Tomorrow night largely dry and temperatures will

:26:52. > :26:55.stay in double figures. However Wednesday may get off to a dry

:26:56. > :26:58.start. It will not stay that way for very long. A weather system coming

:26:59. > :27:02.in from the Atlantic and that will bring widespread rain. Some of that

:27:03. > :27:05.will be heavily during the day as well. Southerly winds will have

:27:06. > :27:10.picked up so perhaps a bit blustery especially for the County Down coast

:27:11. > :27:21.during the afternoon. Temperature is noticeably cooler. 14 or 15 Celsius

:27:22. > :27:24.because of the some good news. Most of the rain cleared away and leaves

:27:25. > :27:27.behind a scattering of showers for Thursday. Prior conditions expected

:27:28. > :27:29.on Friday but the winds will pick up just in time for the weekend. Before

:27:30. > :27:32.we go this evening, the Met office has issued names that will be given

:27:33. > :27:34.to storms heading our way this winter and autumn. To check out the

:27:35. > :27:44.names follow Thank you. I will be back at

:27:45. > :27:46.10:30pm. For now from everyone, have a good evening. Goodbye.
