Newspaper headlines

In the Heather Mills thread, Dave Brockman mentions the SUN headline

"Mucca chucksa cuppa water over Macca's lawyer Shacka"

and I thought I would start a thread so you people around the world can add amusing ones as and when they happen.

One of the better ones i've seen in recent times was when the story of Prince Harry in Afghanistan blew up (no pun intended). The Daily Star lead with the headline

'When Harry met Tali'

[Daniel]

Can't remember the actual headline but I remember about a year and a half ago the Sun had the sister of one of the 7/7 bombers on page three and had a very amusing (but seemingly hard to remember) headline.

This one appeared recently on the front of the Ilford Recorder, and gets straight to the point:

BINMAN DID POO IN OUR GARDEN

An early 1990s item in the Jersey Evening Post:

ETHNIC CLEANSING: YOU AND YOUR SHOWER UNIT

And I've always liked this one, though I can't remember which paper it was from:

AMSTERDAM 'NOT SUITABLE' AS LONDON AIRPORT, SAYS BAA

[MrJan]

Wasn't there an old Scottish football one: "Super Cally Go Ballistic Celtic Are Atrocious"? Pure genius.

[BDunnell]

The Sun yesterday went with this tasteful one:

THE PAEDO HAS LANDED

[ShiftingGears]

After Sheik Al Hilali kept repeating sexist claims then saying they had been taken out of context the media fancied calling him The Thick Sheik. I enjoyed that one :D

" Bombo, Bombo, we're back from Congo ".
"Bombo" comes from "Bombonel "( little candy ), the nickname of an ex prime minister who was a candidate for presidency. In the days of elections there was a message on cell phones with a funny poem, in fact a parody of a classic poem, saying that if Bombo wins we'll F... the nation and emigrate in Congo. But the guy lost and a paper used this headline.

"Mihaela Melinte is the best at hammer. "
M M used to be world champion at athletics ( throwing hammer ) and in romanian hammer has also a very sexual meaning.

I only wish I could see this headline "Maxu05 wins $50,000,000 in lottery" Now that would be a great headline :D

[Azumanga Davo]

"Red Tape Holds Up New Bridge"

"Red Tape Holds Up New Bridge"

"Toilet stolen, police have nothing to go on"

The day after he won the Iowa Caucuses, the Boston Herald ran a full page photo of Mike Huckabee's smiling face on the front page with one word;

"SHAZAM!"
