Part of Channel 4's Cutting Edge strand, this film follows the employees of the Sunday Sport as they go about producing one of Britain's most raunchy tabloids. The 30 strong team spend their days thinking up headlines for their imaginatively written stories. A feature on 'The World's Biggest Nipple' and an interview with parents who believe their child was turned into a fishfinger by aliens provide the highlights. The Editor's cover story is ruined when the women with the world's biggest boobs is late for her photo shoot because British Airways won't let her get on the plane in case her boobs explode.
