It's well known that the Sun and pretty much any tabloid worth its salt has a "headline bank". This is something journalists will contribute to when they come up with a particularly witty headline despite the fact that there isn't a news story to put it with. The headline will be stored away and if an appropriate event ever occurs, they've got an instantly witty headline to run it with. So, I suggest we come up with some theoretical headlines for fun. :hat:

VOODOO CHILES - Adrian Chiles starts practising voodoo in an attempt to hurt Chris Evans.

COSH AND BECKS - David Beckham goes mental and beats the shit out of Posh with a baton.

Er, go!

Assuming you're being serious, the bingo name for the number eleven is "Legs Eleven", because it looks very vaguely like a pair of legs.

WANK TANKS SPANK BANKS Investing in a firm from a small town in the south of Germany specialising in water containers provided a greater return than putting the money in a high interest account say analysts.
