more than 100,000 people, have attended an open air mass led by pope francis, on the second day of his visit to ireland. addressing worshippers he begged for forgiveness from god, for what he called the ‘open wound' of sexual and institutional abuse, uncovered in the church. 0ur religion editor martin bashir reports. at a shrine where 15 people believed they witnessed an apparition of the virgin mary, a man, said by the catholic church, to be the successor of st peter, arrived at knock this morning. good morning. applause. in a brief speech, pope francis extended greetings to the people of northern ireland and prayed for a continuing commitment to the peace process.

and, again, he promised to be firm and decisive in dealing with child sexual abuse. well, has has he won the people of ireland back? he certainly spoke very proximately to them. he spoke very simply to them and i think he has certainly gained the hearts and minds of many people here, which is most important. as he flew back from knock, people were beginning to arrive at what would prove to be the climax of this short visit — a celebration of mass in the vast open space of phoenix park, almost a0 years after the last pa pal visit. it will be my first time seeing the pope. i remember my mum getting ready in‘ 79. i always thought, would i ever get to see the pope in my lifetime? this might be my only chance. not forgetting the hurt and the abuse, that's important that we all remember that, but we're never going to move forward if we don't think of the hope and pope francis is hope for the church. all ages rushed for a close—up view of the pope as he drove around the grounds for almost 30 minutes. and then, he asked ireland to forgive the church for its sins.

translation: we ask forgiveness for the times that, as a church, we did not show the survivors of whatever kind of abuse, compassion. given the circumstances leading up to this visit, with abuse scandals of raging from australia to america, this has been a relatively trouble—free trip for pope francis. but the overall message, both in and outside of catholicism, is that the time for talking is now over. decisive action must be taken, if the church in ireland is to thrive once again. six speeches, two internalflights, meetings with the homeless and victims of abuse — 81—year—old pope francis spared little in his effort to engage with the irish people. martin bashir, bbc news, dublin.

0ur ireland correspondent emma vardy is in dublin. he was powerful and passionate in his condemnation of abuse in the church. what is your assessment of how well his words went down with the crowd? i think we saw pope francis repeatedly underline his commitment to get justice for the victims of abuse. many people said they will leave from this weekend feeling reassured. but at the same time, for many survivors of sexual abuse, there is still a real lack of confidence in the vatican's own investigation and despite the pope's assurances, there are still discontinuing believed that the church won't be robust enough with members of its own clergy who have been involved in cover—ups and that will take much more than this weekend's visit to change. so pope

francis leads ireland tonight with anger still high this issue andy will be waiting to see what action will be waiting to see what action will follow with their churches to repair its credibility. emma, thank you. the daughter ofjohn and susan cooper, the british couple who died at a hotel in egypt last week, has told the bbc she's convinced, "something in their room killed them". kelly 0rmerod, who was also staying at the hotel, believes her parents didn't die of natural causes. egyptian investigators say no trace of poisonous gas has been found in the couple's room. 0ur correspondent stuart flinders reports. john and susan cooper were on a family holiday at the red sea resort of hurghada when they were both taken seriously ill and died on the same day. their daughter, kelly 0rmerod, who arrived home in burnley this morning, was with them. at 11 o'clock, i went and knocked on the door, to see whether they were just having a bit of lie in and didn't want to be bothered. as i opened the door, i could see that my dad was extremely ill. he was staggering back to the bed.

mum was laid on the bed and i could tell that something was seriously wrong with them. the egyptian authorities say the couple, both in their 60s, died from heart and respiratory failure and that an inspection of their room showed there were no toxic or harmful gas emissions or leaks. tests are now being carried out on food, water and air conditioning at the steigenberger aqua magic hotel, as investigators try to establish how the couple died. their granddaughter noticed something suspicious in the room the night they became ill. mum and my daughter went back to their bedroom. as soon as they went into the bedroom, my daughter said that they could smell something that was a little bit funny, that wasn't right. all they did, really, was spray a little perfume to try and eliminate the smell. they then fell asleep and my father came back to the room an hour later, and my daughter woke up and said she felt very unwell with the smell and she wanted to come

and return to my room. the tour company, thomas cook, says it's looking into every possibility and expects it to be ten days before the results of tests at the hotel are known. this isjust a solo investigation which are carried out by our independent experts, in collaboration, of course, with the prosecutors in egypt and we have to leave them, what exactly they are testing. i totally trust that they are testing the right things. john cooper was a builder. his wife, susan, worked at a travel agents in the centre of burnley. she is described as "loyal and long serving" and the shop has been closed for the past few days as a mark of respect. their daughter is still coming to terms with her loss. mum and dad were the best parents anybody could wish for. mum was fit and healthy, we used to go to the gym two or three times a week and dad was the same, he was an active walker. postmortem results are expected in the next few days, but it could be weeks before

kelly 0rmerod is allowed to bring her parents‘ bodies home. stuart flinders, bbc news, burnley. the british—iranian woman, nazanin zaghari—ratcliffe, has been refused an extension, to her temporary release fromjail in iran. her husband richard, confirmed she'd returned to evin prison, after a three day release spent with her familyjust outside of the capital tehran. she was given a five year sentence in 2016 and accused of spying, a charge she denies. 0ur correspondent caroline davis is here with me. so, no success in trying to get this temporary release extended. what do you think the chances are of her getting at least another temporary release at some point in the future? things did initially looked very optimistic this morning. nazanin was first arrested in april 2000 16. on thursday she was granted three days to spend time with her family outside tehran and her small daughter who is now four years old.

initially, nazanin was told she would be extended, but later in the day she was called to say that has not been approved and they were waiting for a signature that was key and she had to return to prison by sunset. we have heard all this information from richard radcliffe, her husband. he said iraq was told by the prosecutor's officer could be possible the signature was still forthcoming, that she might only have to spend a few days in prison. however, he also says that the family spoke to the british embassy, who had been in touch with the foreign office and they heard no mention of this signature or a short stay. so at the moment nazanin is in prison with no certainty of if or when she might be released. thank you. the bodies of two missing fishermen, have been discovered near the wreck of their sunken boat in the north sea. it capsized 25 miles off the norfolk coast last night. three other crew members were rescued from a life raft by a passing cruise ship, after their distress flare was spotted.

it's not known why the fishing boat sank. there have been numerous tributes paid to one of america's most respected politicians, john mccain, who's died at the age of 81. the vietnam war hero, defeated by barack obama in the 2008 presidential election, had been suffering from a brain tumour, and decided to stop treatment two days ago. chris buckler looks back at his life. john mccain was a politician of principle — a patriot who believed in his country and fought for it at tremendous cost to himself. during the vietnam war, he was shot down over hanoi. captured, interrogated and tortured. the beatings he received during those years as a prisoner left him with lasting injuries. on his eventual return to the united states, he was hailed as a war hero and entered politics. he was to spend well over three decades representing republicans in congress.

mr mccain was seen as a maverick, but he was respected, too. in 2008, he was selected as the republican presidential candidate, but his campaign was not without mistakes and he was criticised for choosing sarah pailin as his running mate. ultimately, was to lose to history in the form of america's first black president. i wish the outcome had been different, my friends. the road was a difficult one from the outset. barack obama is, alongside president george w bush, expected to give a eulogy at his funeral. in a statement, mr obama said: but the current president didn't always show his fellow republican such respect.

he's a war hero because he was captured. after surgery to remove a blood clot, john mccain made a point of walking into the senate and blocking mr trump's attempts to repeal the obamacare health reforms. with a grand gesture, he simply turned his thumb down. at the white house, whichjohn mccain was never given the opportunity to serve, the flag has been lowered to half—mast. on friday, he chose to stop receiving medical treatment for the aggressive form of brain cancer he had been suffering from. his family said he took that decision with his usual strength of will. butjohn mccain was a man who never gave up hope in politics or in his own personal battles. i hope to impress on you again that it is an honour to serve the american people in your company. senatorjohn mccain, who's died at the age of 81. now, with all the sport, here's katherine downes

but motherwell rescued the point in the dying moments when peter hartley scored from a corner. there's more on the bbc sport website, including a first world title for great britain's mens wheelchair basketball team — but for now, that's all from me. thank you for that. that's it. there's more throughout the evening on the bbc news channel, and i'll be back with the late news at 10. now on bbc one, time for the news where you are. you are watching bbc news. the daughter ofjohn and susan cooper — the couple who died at a hotel in egypt last week — has told the bbc she is convinced ‘something in their room killed them.‘ kelly 0rmerod — who was also staying at the hotel — believes her parents did not die of natural causes. egyptian investigators say no trace of poisonous gas has been found in the couple‘s room. the night before they actually died and went for a family meal together. and we all departed, and my mum and my daughter went back to their bedroom on their own. as soon as they went into the bedroom by daughter said that they could smell something that was a little bit
