View descriptionShare

YouTube has become the latest platform added to the list of banned social media for under 16s in Australia's world-first move.

Plus, from Bend It Like Beckham to The Devil Wears Prada sequel, Hollywood can't seem to stop with the reboots and sequels; so is this creative bankruptcy or just smart business?

And in headlines today A powerful magnitude 8.8 earthquake off Russia's far eastern Kamchatka coast has triggered tsunami warnings as far away as French Polynesia and Chile, and was followed by an eruption of the most active volcano on the peninsula; The property at the centre of a deadly mushroom lunch has been restrained by the court after Erin Patterson was found guilty of triple murder; Two people have been seriously injured after a minibus transporting guests to a wedding in the NSW Hunter Valley veered off a highway and rolled down a 50m embankment; Thousands of heavy metal fans have lined the streets of Birmingham for the funeral procession of Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne, who died earlier this month at the age of 76.
