Word of Mouth

25/01/2011

Michael Rosen visits the newsroom of 'The Sun' to meet the sub-editors, who are widely regarded as some of the most skilled and creative wordsmiths in the newspaper business. He investigates puns, euphemisms, splash-headlines, intros and page-three captions. He looks at the newsroom jargon, from back-benches to sub-decks. And he discovers - among other things - that 'romps' are the new 'nookie'. Producer: Peter Everett.
