More details emerge about Sinn Fein's mystery political donor. 

More details emerge about Sinn Fein's mystery political donor - the biggest political donation ever made in Northern Ireland. 


More details have emerged about the mystery donor who bequeathed £1.5 million to Sinn Fein. Stephen spoke to former SDLP councillor Mairia Cahill and asked her about her getting a copy of the will. We also got reaction from Allison Morris from the Irish News and News Letter political editor Sam McBride.

Also on the programme, same sex dancing on Strictly is pandering to the LGBT minority and is taking away the innocence of children - that's what the DUP's Jim Wells told Nolan over the weekend, after the BBC announced that from next year Strictly can feature same sex partners. The show's bosses had previously said this wasn't something they were planning to do but appear to have made a u-turn. Over the weekend Stephen spoke to professional dancer Robin Windsor and the DUP's Jim Wells.

And, Conservative MPs have been warned not to rebel against the government over Brexit, as MPs plan legislation to stop no deal. A senior source from the whips office - which ensures MPs vote in line with the party - said MPs who voted to block no deal would "destroy" the government's Brexit negotiating position. The source told the BBC that rebels will have the whip withdrawn and be deselected, the source said. Stephen spoke to commentator Andre Walker, SDLP MLA Claire Hanna and Dr Tom Black, BMA Northern Ireland council chair.

All that and more on the biggest show in the country...
