Newspaper headlines: Alleged plot 'to kill Holly' and Labour's new homes pledge

The Daily Express leads on the alleged "hitman plot" to kill This Morning presenter Holly Willoughby. Alongside her picture, it features Gavin Plumb - the man who has appeared in court accused of soliciting to commit her murder.

The Daily Mirror reports that security guard Mr Plumb, aged 36 and from Harlow in Essex, was in contact with a "third party" in the US whom he allegedly encouraged to travel to the UK to carry out the plan.

The Sun also leads on the alleged Willoughby murder plot, but also finds room on its front page for another TV-related story. "Stopgear" is the headline as it reports the BBC has axed Top Gear 10 months after host Freddie Flintoff crashed whilst filming. A source tells the paper: "It's been an institution on British telly, now the feeling is there no way it can continue." But the BBC has officially said that "a decision on the timing of future Top Gear shows will be made in due course".

A pledge by Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer that his party will build new towns along railway lines and tax developers to fund more social housing if it gets into government provides the lead story for the i weekend newspaper. It comes ahead of the party conference in Liverpool. The paper says the party also wants fresh powers to build on green belt land.

The Guardian says Labour will commit to a big expansion of affordable homes as a key pledge before the next general election. It comes after Labour "trounced the SNP with an overwhelming victory" in the Rutherglen and Hamilton West by-election, the paper notes. The Guardian prominently pictures Narges Mohammadi following her Nobel Peace prize win. The jailed Iranian activist was awarded the honour "for her fight against the oppression of women in Iran".

Also focusing on Labour pledges, the Times says Labour will warn the NHS must "modernise or die". The paper reports the party is set to vow to double the number of diagnostic scanners in hospitals to give thousands more patients faster access to live-saving treatment. Featured on the front page is Terminator star Arnold Schwarzenegger who is reinventing himself as a self-help guru with a new book, Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life.

"Fergies' agony" headlines the Daily Star as it features a wedding picture of Sir Alex Ferguson and his wife Lady Cathy following her death. His wife of 57 years died aged 84.

The Daily Telegraph says police are wrongly labelling hundreds of suspected rapists as women. It says Freedom of Information requests show police forces referred 260 self-declared females to the Crown Prosecution Service to be considered for a rape charge. By law, rape can only be committed by a biological male, the paper notes. The Telegraph also carries Rishi Sunak's words of support for Willoughby as he appeared on This Morning amid the news breaking about the alleged murder plot. Elsewhere, Manchester City footballer Erling Haaland tells the paper about his "addiction" to goals.

"Manopause madness" headlines the Daily Mail as it says councils, universities, police forces and fire services have "male menopause" policies. The paper says this is despite male menopause not being a clinically recognised condition. Meanwhile, former Prime Minister Boris Johnson writes in his column that Mr Sunak's proposed smoking ban - so a child who is 14 or under today will never be allowed to buy a cigarette - is "barmy".

The Financial Times Weekend reports a £600m capital offer has been proposed for Metro Bank, whose shares slumped on Thursday after reports it is looking to raise millions to boost its balance sheet. Taylor Swift also features on the page as the pop superstar's concert film launches next week in cinemas - it is being hailed as a "new era" for the industry.

Many of Saturday's papers carry a photo of the TV presenter Holly Willoughby on their front pages, after a man appeared in court accused of plotting her kidnap and murder. "US hitman plot to murder Holly" is the headline in the Sun.

The Guardian leads with Labour's "new homes pledge" which the party's deputy leader Angela Rayner says would mean the biggest boost to affordable housing in a generation. In an interview before the party's annual conference in Liverpool, she says the Conservatives' target of 300,000 new homes a year should be the "benchmark" for a Labour government and she wanted to exceed that number. She said the increase would be achieved by getting tough on developers and reforming planning rules.

The i says Sir Keir Starmer will announce plans to give new powers to local authorities to build on specific parts of the green belt - with what it calls the "golden triangle" between London, Cambridge and Oxford already under consideration. The paper says Labour also wants to build new towns next to existing railway lines.

Holly Willoughby did not appear on Thursday's edition of This Morning

The front page of the Times carries a warning from Labour that the NHS must "modernise or die". In an interview, the party's shadow health secretary Wes Streeting promises to double the number of diagnostic scanners in hospitals to give patients faster access to treatments.

The Daily Telegraph's lead says police have wrongly labelled "hundreds" of suspected rapists as women - despite the home secretary saying the practice is wrong. The paper says it approached police forces using Freedom of Information requests to find out how often they had "adopted the self-declared gender of alleged sex attackers". Earlier this year Suella Braverman said that "in no instance" was it biologically or legally right for a rapist to be described as a "she".

Paddington Bear came from Peru according to the story

"Manopause madness" is the headline on the front of the Daily Mail. It reports that dozens of councils, universities, police forces and fire services have "male menopause" policies to help middle-aged men cope with symptoms like poor sleep, or mood swings. But critics - according to the paper - say it leaves women fighting for "ownership of something which is biologically female". It quotes one campaigner who says "women can't have anything of their own".

And under the headline "Paddington: I can't bear being in Peru", the Daily Star reveals that scenes for the third Paddington film - where the fictional bear returns home to "darkest Peru" for a holiday - are actually being shot in neighbouring Colombia. It reports that Peruvians are "outraged" and believe their own government's "restrictive red tape" is to blame.
