Scooped! teams up with the News of the World



Scooped! has teamed up with The News of the World - to produce special edition spoof front pages for its army of readers.

Britain's No1 company for personalised newspaper and magazine gifts is now working with Britain's best-selling Sunday newspaper to give YOU the chance to appear on the front page of a spoof News of the World.

In Sunday's Scottish News of the World we gave readers the chance to win one of three different spoof newspaper styles — a birthday, wedding or work leaving front page — with ten lucky winners each receiving a framed spoof News of the World front page.

Now, for a limited period, readers can buy a special edition News of the World birthday, wedding or work leaving front page from just £25 by visiting http://www.makingthenews.co.uk/scottishnotw

This is just the latest breakthrough for Scooped! — earlier this year we teamed up with The Sun to produce spoof newspapers for their readers and you can still buy a spoof Sun birthday, wedding or Father’s Day front page by going to http://www.makingthenews.co.uk/thescottishsun or http://www.makingthenews.co.uk/theirishsun

The Sun and the News of the World have never before allowed an outside company to use their famous mastheads but Scooped! is no ordinary company.

Our loyal customers already know that, for the first time, they can buy a personalised newspaper or magazine front page gift that has been written and designed by real journalists with real experience of working in national newspapers.

While Scooped! has previously only used fictional mastheads - The Scoop, The Daily Scoop, SCOOP! - we have now ensured that, for the first time ever, News of the World readers can appear on the front page of their favourite paper.

Scooped! director James McIvor - a former Sun chief sub-editor - said: "It is fantastic that our company has been asked to write and design spoof front pages for the country's best-selling Sunday newspaper.

"No other Sunday newspaper has ever given their readers the opportunity to star on their front page so I am confident that the concept will be well received by readers.

"We are giving away 10 framed front pages this time but readers can also buy their very own birthday, wedding or work leaving front page by visting www.makingthenews.co.uk/scottishnotw

"Already there has been huge interest and I expect that to continue over the coming weeks.

"Scooped! has been going from strength to strength over the last couple of months this is another huge breakthrough for us."
