Yes, but also, I want a big, lush conservatory so I can lay in an open space, surrounded by growing things, listening to the rain patter against the glass walls and roof...

I hate the “open floor plan” that everyone is obsessed with in houses now. I want nooks and crannies and bizarre floor plans. I don’t need to be able to see what someone is doing on the other side of the house. I want places to hide and lurk and dwell in the shadows. I am the beast who awaits in the labyrinth

Watch: Louis Tomlinson downs shots with fans on New Year's Eve night out in Doncaster

Doncaster pop sensation Louis Tomlinson kicked off 2024 in style – by downing shots with fans on a New Year’s Eve night out in his home city.

By Darren Burke | Published 2nd Jan 2024, 10:05 GMT | Updated 2nd Jan 2024, 10:05 GMT

The former One Direction star happily posed for photos and chatted to fans as he dropped into several city centre bars and clubs to round off 2023.

One clubber was lucky enough to share a drink with the 32-year-old singer – downing a shot with the star at Club Subterranea in the early hours of New Year’s Day.

19-year-old Millie Cordon downed a drink with the X-Factor favourite as fans clamoured for a photo and a chat with the musician, whose family live in Doncaster. [x] [x]

Mum Debbie Johnston said: “She asked him if he would like a drink and they had a shot together.

"She was really happy and sent me the video straight away – it was around 3.30 am in the morning.”

Louis also posed happily for pictures with door staff during his night out.

Minyvonne Burke at NBC News:

Craig Melvin will replace Hoda Kotb after the beloved co-anchor announced in September that she was leaving “TODAY” after nearly two decades. Melvin, a news anchor of “TODAY” and a co-host of the 3rd hour of “TODAY,” made the announcement on the show Thursday morning. He will co-anchor alongside Savannah Guthrie for the 7 and 8 a.m. hours beginning Jan. 13.

“I am beyond excited and grateful,” an emotional Melvin said. “I’ve enjoyed just a lifetime of blessings and this is the latest in a long line of blessings.” Kotb said he was “literally made for this job.” “You have all the things this job needs,” she said. “You are the right person for it.” Kotb will remain as co-anchor until Jan. 10, calling it a "party day." She said she made the decision to step down after she turned 60 in August. “I realized that it was time for me to turn the page at 60 and to try something new,” she told her fellow hosts in September as she fought back tears. Kotb has co-anchored the show with Savannah Guthrie since early 2018, becoming the first all-female anchor team. Guthrie told Kotb that while she is “irreplaceable in our hearts,” she was excited about Melvin’s new role and called him “talented, wonderful, hard-working, most-worthy.”

Craig Melvin named Hoda Kotb’s replacement on NBC’s Today.

What are your top five television shows of all time?

Thank you for the tag @wannab-urs 😘

I watch quite a few shows, but not many achieve favourite status.

Supernatural. I watched right from the beginning when it started airing in the UK in Jan 2006 and by the episode Faith I knew it would be with me until the end of time. I am of course a Dean girl.

A Discovery of Witches. I read the books before watching the show, and I love how true it stayed to the source material. The cast was fantastic. The soundtrack was awesome too.

Narcos. I didn't start watching Narcos until like March last year, so i was really late to the party, but now its one of my comfort shows. I obviously watch it solely for the plot 🤔

The Musketeers. I always swore that no one would ever replace Oliver Reed as Athos for me, and then Tom Burke spent like 5 minutes getting dressed while extremely hung over and I was a gonna. The 1st season is my favourite, so many good moments and lines in it, "I cannot believe you slept with the Queen!" 🤣

The Mandalorian. I am born and bread a Star Wars girly, so I was always going to watch it with or without Pedro Pascal being in it. I expected to love it because I love Star Wars, what I didn't expect was to fall so completely in love with so many of the characters.

Super Hornets Hit Houthi Missiles Prior To Launch In Yemen (Updated)

This is the third day in a row that the U.S. has carried out preemptive attacks against Houthi missiles being prepared to launch. 🚀

Howard AltmanPUBLISHED Jan 18, 2024 3:48 PM EST

Super Hornets from the aircraft carrier Dwight David Eisenhower struck Houthi missile installations today.

U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Michael Battles

The U.S., using F/A-18E/Fs Super Hornets from the aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, carried out another preemptive attack on Houthi missiles in Yemen on Thursday.

“U.S. Central Command forces conducted strikes on two Houthi anti-ship missiles that were aimed into the Southern Red Sea and were prepared to launch,” CENTCOM said in a statement. “U.S. forces identified the missiles in Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen at approximately 3:40 p.m. (Sanaa time) and determined they were an imminent threat to merchant vessels and U.S. Navy ships in the region. U.S. forces subsequently struck and destroyed the missiles in self-defense.”

This is the fifth attack against Houthi targets in Yemen since the Houthis began attacking Red Sea area shipping and the third day in a row that the U.S. has struck missiles being prepared to launch.

The U.S. conducted a preemptive attack against 14 Houthi missiles on Wednesday and another preemptive strike against four Houthi anti-ship ballistic missiles on Tuesday. The U.S. previously struck a Houthi radar site with a Tomahawk Land Attack Missile fired by the Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyer USS Carney on Jan. 13. That came after U.S. and U.K. aircraft, surface ship and submarine attacks on more than 60 targets hit at 28 sites in Houthi-controlled Yemen on Jan. 12.

Earlier Thursday President Joe Biden was asked by reporters if the strikes against the Houthis were working.

“Well, when you say ‘working, are they stopping the Houthis?,” Biden responded with a question of his own: “No. Are they going to continue? Yes.”

Asked to respond to that statement during a press briefing Thursday afternoon, Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh told reporters, including from The War Zone, that the Pentagon “never said that the Houthis would immediately stop. That is something that they will have to make that decision and that calculation to do. It's in their best interest I think to stop. You've seen that we've been able to degrade and severely disrupt and destroy a significant number of their capabilities since Thursday, but it's really on them when they decide that they want to stop interrupting commercial shipping innocent mariners that are transiting the Red Sea.”

There were indications of an incident in the region involving another vessel, but officials could not immediately confirm that.

In addition, neither Singh nor CENTCOM could immediately confirm reports that a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drone was shot down near Baghdad Thursday.

If verified, this would be the second Reaper shot down since the start of the Israel-Hamas war Oct. 7. Houthi militants in Yemen reportedly shot down a Reaper off the country's coast earlier Nov. 8, which you can read more about in our original report here.

This is a developing story. We will update it when there is more news to report.

Update: 5:53 PM Eastern -

UKMTO issued another report, this time about an unnamed merchant vessel in the Gulf of Aden observing four "unidentified Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UAS)" flying near the ship, with one landing in the water about 800 meters away.

"Vessel and crew are safe and proceeding to their next port of call."

The Houthis, meanwhile, put out statement claiming to have struck a vessel called the Chem Ranger with "several appropriate naval missiles, resulting in direct hits."

The War Zone could not immediately verify this claim.

The Houthi statement adds that it will continue hitting shipping and conduct strikes in retaliation for the ongoing attacks conducted in Yemen by the U.S. and U.K.

"The Yemeni Armed Forces confirm that a retaliation to the American and British attacks is inevitable, and that any new aggression will not go unpunished."

"The Yemeni Armed Forces confirm that navigation traffic in the Arab and Red Seas will continue to all destinations around the world except for the ports of occupied Palestine, and that the block of Israeli navigation or heading to the ports of occupied Palestine will continue until the ceasefire is achieved and the siege is lifted in the Gaza strip.

"The Yemeni Armed Forces continue to implement their defensive and offensive procedures within the legitimate right of defense of dear Yemen and in confirmation of continued solidarity and support for our steadfast brothers in the Gaza Strip."

We've reached out to the Pentagon and CENTCOM for information about this claim and will provide details if they become available.

World Premiere FNF Restoration!

NEVER OPEN THAT DOOR | NO ABRAS NUNCA ESA PUERTA

Argentina, 1952. Estudios San Miguel. 85 minutes

Screenplay by Alejandro Casona, from two short stories by Cornell Woolrich (William Irish)

Produced and directed by Carlos Hugo Christensen

More noir films have been based on the stories of Cornell Woolrich than any other writer, and NOIR CITY is proud to present this brand-new restoration of one of the best of those adaptations. In “Someone’s on the Phone,” Ángel Magaña plays a man bent on avenging the death of his sister, driven to suicide by gambling debts. In “The Hummingbird Comes Home,” Roberto Escalada portrays a racketeer who brings the gang to his boyhood home to lay low after a robbery. His blind madre doesn’t approve. Originally a three-part anthology of Woolrich tales, Never Open That Door was released separately from the 73-minute If I Should Die Before I Wake, also adapted by Casona and Christensen. Benefitting from the incredible cinematography of Pablo Tabernero, this is one of the most evocative realizations of Woolrich ever produced, featuring masterful sequences of sustained suspense. Said Buenos Aires film critic Horacio Bernades, “Rarely has an Argentine film been more purely cinematic than this.”

CAST: Someone on the Phone: Ángel Magaña (Raúl), Renée Dumas (Luisa), Diana de Córdoba (Nelly), Nicolás Fregues (money lender), Pedro Fiorito, Orestes Soriani, Percival Murray, Rosa Martín , Arnoldo Chamot. The Hummingbird Comes Home: Roberto Escalada (Daniel), Ilde Pirovano (the mother), Norma Giménez (María), Luis Otero (Juan)

STREET OF CHANCE

United States, 1942. Paramount [Universal]. 74 minutes

Screenplay by Garrett Fort, based on the novel The Black Curtain by Cornell Woolrich

Produced by Burt Kelly. Directed by Jack Hively

The first case of amnesia in the film noir era comes with a typically intriguing Woolrichian twist. Frank Thompson survives a near fatal accident only to have the shock partially restore his memory! He realizes he’s lived the past several years as someone other than his true self. With the help of his incredulous girlfriend Ruth, Frank embarks on a nocturnal quest to determine his true identity. This modest offering from the B-unit at Paramount benefits from some A-list contributors, principally stars Burgess Meredith and Claire Trevor, and director of photography Theodor Sparkuhl, whose contributions to the look of early ’40s noir have gone largely unheralded. A wonderful gallery of supporting characters skitter and sneak through Frank’s waking nightmare, well rendered by journeyman director Jack Hively who had previously helmed many entries in RKO’s mystery series The Saint.

CAST: Burgess Meredith (Frank Thompson), Claire Trevor (Ruth Dillon), Louise Platt (Virginia Thompson), Sheldon Leonard (Joe Marucci), Frieda Inescort (Alma Diedrich), Jerome Cowan (Bill Diedrich), Adeline deWalt Reynolds (Grandma Diedrich), Arthur Loft (Sheriff Stebbins), Clancy Cooper (Burke), Ann Doran (Miss Peabody), Paul Phillips
