Subeditor's dream

Tabloid legend has it, when Frank Sinatra (God rest his immortal soul) had sheep hormones injected into him, for one reason or another, current big shot Piers Morgan - then a lowly subeditor - came up with the headline:

I've got ewes under my skin

...for which he was, legend has it, like I say, instantly promoted.

Today, as I was watching Fame Academy with "our kid" (my brother, to southern people) and his girlfriend...

I noted with more than a raised eyebrow, one hopeful was called Audley.

I thought, what if he made it big. What if he were a big star, and a piss head verbally and physically abused him in a club. We might see, on the front page, a photo of the perpetrator, married with the headline...

Drunk, and dissed Audley!

Come up with a dream headline!

(Sorry to get all wiggily excited about this.)

Heh, Hen. I'm getting a bit obsessed with that Hitchens site. Why did you have to introduce me to that forum. It's TOO fascinating.
