Two Ulster and Irish rugby stars will go on trial today accused of raping a woman in Belfast.
Paddy Jackson and Stuart Olding deny all of the charges against them.
Jackson and Olding are accused of alleged offences against the same woman at a house in south Belfast in June 2016.
Both are charged with one count of rape - while Jackson faces a further count of sexual assault.
Two other men have also been charged in connection with the case - one facing a count of exposure the other of perverting the course of justice and withholding information.
The high-profile case, which could last up to five weeks, is being heard by Judge Patricia Smyth.
Fly-half Jackson has been capped for Ireland 25 times and centre Olding has played four times. They are established stars for Ulster Rugby.
The Irish Rugby Football Union and Ulster Rugby have said they will not play again until court proceedings conclude.
