The confessions of double killer Colin Howell are to be broadcast for the first time in a new BBC documentary. Dentist Colin Howell killed his wife and his lover's husband in 1991 and confessed 18 years later. Local DUP MP Gregory Campbell says the business community and consumers in NI 'don't want a trade war' with America, as President Trump doubles down on threats to impose tariffs on countries which oppose his plans to take over Greenland. Also on North West Today, we hear from Derry City footballer James McClean's wife Erin as they prepare to move home after 15 years.
