Three of the dead have been named so far; Brendan McAleese, a cousin of Mary McAleese’s husband; Pat Cullinan, a partner in accountancy firm KPMG in Belfast; and Captain Michael Evans, deputy harbour commissioner in Belfast. The others who were killed have not been named yet but have been identified as a Briton, the Spanish pilot and British co-pilot.

Work on the redevelopment at the Bowl Stadium in the NSC in Douglas is running ahead of schedule. It seems that the 3000 seater floodlit stadium and synthetic pitch will be finished and ready for the commonwealth youth games this September. We went out and spoke to people to see what they thought of the stadium:

If they can finish this off before the commonwealth games start, then it will be a success.

Many people from the island have been on a search after a very famous face appeared at the legends charity match that took place last week. It was jaw dropping to see that Mr. Eric Cantona has been visiting the Isle of Man. The ex Manchester United player who is currently been filming movies might be considering on filming at the island.
