Netflix confirms launch date for Liam Payne's posthumous TV show
Building the Band is a new talent show for aspiring singers which included episodes featuring Payne as a guest judge. The One Direction star tragically died last year at the age of 31 after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Netflix completed filming of the show prior to the star's shock death last October, but there had been doubts over whether or not the entertainment giant would stream it. On Wednesday, Deadline announced the release dates for the release of the series, revealing it will air over three weeks, "July 9, Episodes 101-104; July 16, Episodes 105-107 and July 23, Episodes 108-110."

Appeal success for Nazi salutes outside Jewish museum
A man who performed a Nazi salute near a Jewish museum and then claimed he was copying comedian Ricky Gervais has had his conviction and fine wiped away. Anthony Raymond Mitchell, 33, performed a Nazi salute and goose-step with two co-workers near the Sydney Jewish Museum in October 2023. The salute, seen on the museum's CCTV by a security guard, came days after Hamas militants killed 1200 Israelis and took hundreds more hostage in southern Israel, sparking the latest outbreak of war in Gaza. At the time, the construction workers were on their lunch break and walking back to their van. When interviewed by police, Mitchell said he was mimicking a Netflix performance and realised "those who were not familiar with the Ricky Gervais skit could take the actions in a certain way". Mitchell and his co-workers each argued the gestures were a joke but were found guilty of offensive behaviour and knowingly displaying Nazi symbols without excuse by a magistrate in October. The case tested laws prohibiting the display of Nazi symbols, introduced by the NSW parliament in 2022 and carrying a maximum penalty of 12 months' jail, an $11,000 fine or both. Re-running the case in the District Court on appeal, the trio's lawyers argued that the gestures should not fall within the definition of displaying a Nazi symbol. But that was rejected by Judge Craig Smith on Friday. "They are immediately recognised as being associated with that regime and period of history," he said in the Downing Centre court. There was no reasonable excuse for the trio's actions to be performed outside the museum, he said. While the new law allowed the Nazi symbol to be displayed for academic, educational, artistic or other public interest purposes, the tradies' actions were "nothing of the sort," Judge Smith said. Lawyer Bryan Wrench, representing one of Mitchell's co-workers Daniel Muston, told the court that the actions occurred within a split second, and were not planned. "There is no Nazi ideology behind this," he said. Muston, 42, had completed a tour of the museum since his conviction in an attempt to educate himself on Jewish culture and history, Mr Wrench said. Judge Smith accepted Mitchell, Muston and the third man - Ryan Peter Marshall, 31 - did not have any connection with the hateful ideologies underlying the Nazi party. But he upheld a magistrate's guilty findings against all three men and the decision to record a conviction against Marshall and Muston. Mitchell's conviction was however scrubbed from his record with the judge accepting he did not know he was outside the Jewish museum, unlike his co-workers. "I've been persuaded to a different position for Mr Mitchell," Judge Smith said. Mitchell was handed a nine-month good behaviour bond in place of the conviction. The judge also reduced Muston's fine from $1000 to $500, labelling it as "excessive". The original $1500 fine for Marshall, the instigator of the salutes, was kept in place. The judgment follows the arrest of two men in February for unfurling a Nazi flag at a pub near the Sydney Jewish museum, and the jailing in November of a far-right extremist and self-proclaimed "Hitler soldier" in Melbourne.

Meghan's friend hits out: ‘Sickening and cruel'
Don't miss out on the headlines from Royals. Followed categories will be added to My News. IN LONDON With opinion divided across the millions of people who have viewed Meghan's pregnancy dancing video, one of her friends has spoken out passionately in her defence. Christopher Bouzy, who appeared in the Harry & Meghan Netflix docu-series, defended her against the wave of criticism she received recently after posting the throwback clip showing the couple dancing to the viral Baby Mama song in a birthing suite. The video sparked a major reaction online. Picture: Instagram MORE: $7.2m deal: Meghan, Harry's US life didn't cut it Some of the more extreme reactions from trolls also included unsubstantiated accusations that her pregnant bump may even be fake. 'Imagine, for a moment, what it would feel like to have some of the happiest and most vulnerable moments of your life turned into ammunition for hate,' Bouzy told Newsweek. 'Every maternity dress and every baby video becomes 'evidence' for strangers obsessively trying to prove your pregnancies were a sham. It is sickening and cruel.' X SUBSCRIBER ONLY The social media expert, whose company has investigated the online trolling of Meghan, also pointed out that she had previously spoken about her 'suicidal thoughts at the height of the abuse'. 'One doesn't have to stretch to see a link between that despair and the ceaseless torrent of vilification she endured,' he told the publication. 'Beyond the personal toll on Meghan and Harry, there's a broader societal damage to consider. When conspiracy theories like these flourish, they corrode our collective grasp on reality and decency.' Bouzy has spoken out in defence of Meghan. Picture: Netflix Meghan's team is said to consider the viral reaction to the video as 'a win'.

'Meghan is very pleased with the video,' a source close to Harry and Meghan told the Daily Mail this week, in the wake of the viral reaction. 'In the UK, everyone's reaction has been a bit prudish, but everywhere else, particularly in America and especially with young people, it has been a huge hit. 'She and her team count [the video] as a 'win,' which can only be a boost for sales. Her new products are marketed at Americans and not at the UK market.'
