"we“ ‘e‘ei‘i “a uw—u film don't think it will happen this year. thank you forjoining us. she might be approaching 80 but scotla nd she might be approaching 80 but scotland boss mike oldest female international hockey player says she has no intention of retiring. the 76 euros who played in goal for scotla nd euros who played in goal for scotland over 60s team says she wa nts to scotland over 60s team says she wants to be an inspiration to other older ladies who may be thinking about taking up a sport. at the age of 76, you might think sheila would be thinking about relaxing and taking it easy. no chance. forget the slippers and the companies, she is more at home in this. she certainly needs all the padding as the goalkeeper for the aberdeen grammar school former ladies hockey side. some people would say, are you mad? possibly. to be the goalkeeper, you have to be a

wee bit mad. at 76, should you not be thinking about relaxing and chilling out? absolutely not. i have been knocked unconscious but only for a few seconds. i have had a broken hand, but that wasn't hockey. you get bruises of course but it's all right. sheila may be the senior citizen in a squad where the youngest player is 14 but there is no danger of her team—mates going easy on her in training. she would be offended if we went easy on her. she is the last nine of the line so not at all. she also has a starring role to play for her country. she was part of the scotland team that won bronze at last years over 60s world cup in barcelona. she hopes her story can help inspire older ladies to get active and involved in sport. it is means you are never too old to take part in sport. sport keeps you alive, it keeps you fit and it gives you that balance. have you given any thought to retiring? no, not at all.

before we leave you, we go from one extreme to another. 0ne before we leave you, we go from one extreme to another. one more example of why it pays to never give up. 21—year—old michael sweeney, almost falls off after negotiating the final hurdle in his race in cork over the weekend but he somehow managed to have the strength to cling on. but only that, he goes on to win the race as well. fantastic to win the race as well. fa ntastic stuff, to win the race as well. fantastic stuff, but it's over today. we will see you later. plenty more sport throughout the evening on bbc news as well. you're watching bbc news. more on that statement from the prime

minister, updating mps had plans to build a majority for her brexit proposals. let's talk now to the liberal democrat leader who is in oui’ liberal democrat leader who is in our west mistress to do. what did you make of what the prime minister had to say today? she clearly sees this as a way forward in bricking the parliamentary logjam in discussions over brexit. in the words, no. iwas party discussions over brexit. in the words, no. i was party to these discussions over the weekend. very good initiative, iwelcomed discussions over the weekend. very good initiative, i welcomed the fact we have the relief of the challenge on the europeans registering. i thought that was a positive move but on the substance, we saw absolutely nothing that we could see in terms of progress. i think one of the labour backbenchers said, we had open doors but a closed mind. i do worry that we are drifting into a confrontation here with chicken played by the government and no

prospect of a revolution. would you say then that the suggestion that theresa may order to talk to you and the talks she had with you and the snp and so on over the weekend, but that was just window dressing because today's statement makes no concession, seemingly whatsoever, to those members of the house who voted to remain for instance, those who feel that theresa may's proposals are going in the wrong direction towards a ha rd are going in the wrong direction towards a hard brexit rather than a soft one? there is a risk of that. i would not describe it as window dressing. it made prove to be but i took it as face value and in good faith. she is clearly not persuading the principle of having the people's vote that we have productive discussions about if we had one, how it would be commanded. i thought that was useful. i still believe

that was useful. i still believe that a little further down the tracks, the government is going to come to the conclusion that the only way that they can rescue their deal is to put it to the country because if they knew they had a 50—50 chance of succeeding, at the moment they have no chance. you see she is not persuaded by the people's vote or an extension of article 50, she is not persuaded by taking no deal of the table completely. her tactic seems to be to placate the 118 conservative mps who voted against her. and the dup. the is using to be any concession to whatever you said to her at the weekend or indeed that of the scottish nationalists?” think this idea placating the hardline members and the dup is dangerous, very mistaken because there is not the slightest indication that the european union are going to change the arrangements on the backstop. it's an absolute given andi on the backstop. it's an absolute given and i have had conversations

with people in ireland today and they are more determined than ever that they have to protect the good friday agreement. i think a lot of people were alarmed by the press story this morning that might get deleted. there is no way in which the government is going to succeed in that way. the prime minister billy has to start listening to people who are offering a different route. what do you think is going to happen? well, we're waiting for next tuesday and seeing what happens. i think the most productive way forward in the short run is the effort which is being made by mainly conservative backbenchers to try and ta ke conservative backbenchers to try and take control of the house of commons proceedings so that we can introduce measures that stopped a no deal that the government does not like it, i think we might have to take control of that process, swiping as the top priority. you see those moments going through? we are in uncharted waters and if parliament has never

beenin waters and if parliament has never been in this position before, it sounds to me very sensible and plausible and i will certainly be backing them. the suggestion from the labour party which is why they felt that they didn't want to get involved in the talks that you were involved in the talks that you were involved in the talks that you were involved in was that theresa may needed to take a no—deal brexit off the table. they are pushing and pushing for a general election. could that be a possible outcome? pushing for a general election. could that be a possible outcome7m does not solve any problem and indeed we had a reminder today of the problems that the labour party has that one of their leading spokesman who spoke and said actually, the little party should be sorting the boat. their leader will not do it and they are hopelessly split on it. how can we have a general election to resolve the issue when the main opposition party doesn't have a clear mind about what it wants to do next? got to leave it there, fights for joining it wants to do next? got to leave it there, fights forjoining us. the weather is next.
