Hello.
On the previous episode of Newscast,

if we did.
Anyway, just saying.

it's Adam in the newscast studio and shortly I'll be joined by our colleagues in Moscow and Washington to talk about a big change in Donald Trump's policy towards Russia.
Yes, another one.
But first of all,
we're going to talk about a very significant trial that has just ended in Northern Ireland and it ended with a former member of the Parachute Regiment known only as Soldier F being found not guilty of two counts of murder and five counts of attempted murder on Bloody Sunday.
Now that was in January 1972 in London Derry when 13 people were shot dead and 15 others were injured during a civil rights demonstration in the Bogside area of the city of Derry.
This is the only prosecution brought around that event.
And the reason it happened so many years after Bloody Sunday in 1972 is that there was a very long-running public inquiry into the events of that day,
