A fan-made Harry Potter prequel film is currently breaking the internet – Voldemort : Origins of the Heir. 

The prequel follows the life (and lies) of Tom Morvolo Riddle, as he is pursued for his early crimes before he became the most powerful Dark wizard in history. 

More than six months after the original trailer was released, we have the full, hour-long feature film in our view.

The film begins with the disclaimer:

'This film is a non-commercial fan film made by fans for fans and is not endorsed by, affiliated with, or associated with Warner Bros. or J.K. Rowling.'

Warner Brothers Studios had a private discussion with the makers of the prequel, Tryangle Films, and allowed the film to go ahead as long as it was a non-profit project.

The storyline follows Grisha MacLaggen, heir of Gryffindor, as she searches for the soon-to-be-Voldemort after his murder of Hufflepuff descendant Madam Hepzibah Smith. 

The murder, famous in wizarding criminal history, is blamed on her house elf, but Grisha is convinced that Tom Riddle is guilty (and she's not wrong, spoiler alert). 

In case we give to much away, maybe you should watch it for yourself below.

Put the popcorn on:

So your flights are booked and now all you have to do is find you dream Airbnb that suits your group, city and budget. 

Previously, Airbnb bookers had to pay the entire cost of their accommodation when choosing their holiday rental, but now, the holiday home site is giving city breakers the opportunity to spread the cost. 

Today, Airbnb has launched their Pay Less Up Front initiative, a new feature that allows guests to spread the cost of their holiday booking over two instalments.

 

A post shared by Airbnb (@airbnb) on

In order to secure their reservation, guests are now able to pay part of the cost of their accommodation expense on the day of booking, rather than the full sum.

The remainder of the balance will then be paid closer to the time of check-in.

'We understand it can be difficult to pay for all of your holiday upfront, especially in January when the purse-strings have to be held particularly tight, said James McClure, General Manager for UK and Ireland at Airbnb.

 

A post shared by Airbnb (@airbnb) on

'That’s why we’ve introduced our new feature which allows you to get holidays booked in advance – to make sure you don’t lose out when it comes to annual leave – then make the main payment for your holiday closer to your actual trip.' 

Previously, Airbnb guests paid the entire sum up front when booking online. 

This will definitely come in handy for all the holidays January has us dreaming of.

Their faces have been on the cover of every newspaper and magazine since they announced their engagement, and now Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are set to take over the big screen.

Us television network Lifetime has revealed that a film about Harry and Meghan’s romance is in the works.

The network is currently casting people for the roles of Harry and Meghan, and seriously, where can we audition?

In the past, Lifetime has produced movies about Prince William and Kate Middleton’s relationship, as well as the controversial flick The Murder of Princess Diana.

The next royal film titled Harry & Meghan: The Royal Love Story is set to air before the royal wedding on May 19.

Menhaj Huda is to direct the movie, which follows the beginning of the lovebird’s relationship and will feature how they met, and the secretive first few months of their relationship.

It’ll come as no surprise to hear that their engagement will also feature in the movie, as well as the intense media attention that followed the announcement back in November.

The movie will also look at Meghan’s past, including her former marriage and career as an actress, which she has since given up.

Due to her new role in the royal family, the Suits star has stepped away from Hollywood, and will now focus on official royal engagements with her husband-to-be.

Speaking about the next chapter of his life with Meghan, Prince Harry shared that his beloved mum will be with there with them, thanks to Meghan’s sentimental engagement ring.

He shared, 'The little diamonds either side are from my mother’s jewellery collection to make sure that she’s with us on this – on this crazy journey together.'

We cannot wait to find out more about Harry and Meghan’s love story. The Lifetime film is rumoured to air before May 2018.

A Californian community was left in shock today after 13 siblings were rescued from a residence in the Golden State.

The siblings were described as 'malnourished' and underweight, and told authorities they were 'starving.'

It was originally believes that all 13 were children due to their malnourishment, but it was later revealed that the siblings were ages between two and 29 years of age. 

Officers made the discovery after a 17-year-old girl escaped from the house on Sunday.

The girl then used a mobile phone she had found in the house to call 911.

The siblings are believed to have been kept hidden in the house and held captive by their parents. 

The children’s parents, David Allen Turpin, 57, and Louise Anna Turpin, 49, have been arrested and are currently being held on a  $9 million dollar bail.

They are facing counts of torture and child endangerment.

'Deputies located what they believed to be 12 children inside the house but were shocked to discover that seven of them were actually adults,' police said in a statement issued to The Guardian.

'The victims appeared to be malnourished and very dirty.'

Almost 33 years since his discovery, a DNA profile has been established for a baby found on an Irish beach in 1984. 

The male infant was found on White Strand beach in Cahersiveen, Kerry, on April 14 of that year. 

The baby, called Baby John by authorities, had suffered a number of stab wounds which led to his death. 

A blood sample was taken at the time and was preserved by Gardaí.

Members of the Forensic Science Laboratory have now been able to generate a full DNA profile using this sample.

The Garda Síochána's cold case unit is reviewing the death.

Gardaí are appealing to anyone who was in Cahersiveen in April 1984 to come forward if they have any information about the case.

Irish Netflix users are being warned to watch out for a new email scam that could trick people into handing over sensitive information.

The email, which has been designed to look like a legitimate message from the streaming site, prompts the receiver to update their bank details so that they can continue to use the service.

With a subject line reading 'Payment Declined', the fraudulent email reads: “We attempted to authorise the Amex card you have on file but were unable to do so.”

“We will automatically attempt to charge your card again in 24-48 hours.”

The email then asks the Netflix user to input their card details using the link provided.

Should the user click the button, they will be brought to a convincing page and asked to update their payment details.

Netflix is urging its customers to be wary of the scam, and report any suspect emails.

A statement posted of Netflix's website reads: “If you suspect you have received a fraudulent email or text message that appears to be from Netflix, follow these tips to keep your information safe and secure, and follow the steps below to report the message.

“Never enter your login or financial details after following a link in an email or text message.

“Never click on any links or open any attachments in an email or text message you received unexpectedly, regardless of the source.


“If you suspect an email or text message is not from Netflix, do not reply to it.”
