sorry Julia there's a story here you may

wish to read I'm too busy

interested in looking at the articles

than the advertisements let's listen

again to some of the things he said Lola

I'd like to have a word with Tom Hall

Ivan Fallon is the deputy editor of one

of the most famous newspapers in Britain

the Sunday Times what kind of newspaper

is for Sunday Times

it's a broadsheet newspaper as opposed

to what we call a tabloid newspaper if I

could show you that that this is twice

the size or a tabloid newspaper we print

them on the same presses as a tabloid

newspaper but a tabloid newspaper is

that shape it's a very large newspaper

it's a multi section newspaper we've got

eight sections and a magazine the first

section which is obviously the most

important section is what we call the

news section and in that we have home

news we have foreign news and we have

analysis of some of the major events of

the week the editor personally decides

what goes on this front page more effort

and time goes in this front page and any

other page in the paper this story was

written by under grace the chief

political correspondent but had the had

many hands in it particularly the hand

of his immediate boss who's the

political editor and we always have one

major picture on this page and this is

the new Versace skirt and the Paris

fashion shows which shows that short

skirts are back after there we have more

specialized sections we have what we

call the News Review section this

section includes what we call the leader

which is the newspapers editorial

comment our views on what is the most

important event of the week this one

here which will be personally written by

the editor which is an attack upon the

government's economic policy and it's

employment policies this is our

contribution to the political debate the

third section which is a section I edit

is business this is a section

that is amazingly well-read it's the

classified advertising section

classified advertisements being special

as small adverts quite often they're

tiny ads here we have ads for secondhand

cars we have ads for houses we have ads

for for jobs and now we get to our

tabloid sections we have effective three

tabloid sections the reason for this is

we found that not everybody likes the

large broad sheet format we've developed

this particular section as our art

section it's a section that people will

keep and read all through the week

basically because it also contains all

the television programs that will be

owned in Britain it's a complete

television guide the the book section we

call section 6 it was the first time in

Britain that this type of separate

section had been done on books and are

still the only separate book section in

Britain we also have a colour magazine

colour supplement which is very much a

separate part of the paper

chari different type of style and entity

to the rest of the of the newspaper

popper and it is a magazine that's

planned up to six weeks ahead printed

totally outside got its own editor its

own staff its own separate writers its

own separate style writing for the

summer times is dramatically exciting

you are absolutely at the centre of what

are the most exciting events that

particular week

Ivan Fallon of the Sunday Times and

that's all for today the program was

presented by Natalie Forbes

I'm Kevin duck sure and David Riley

goodbye goodbye
