Spice Girls do Yugoslavia Tuesday, November 20, 2007
Most of the population will think of the FT as a dull read. Like any paper you just have to skim to the interesting bits.
Whilst every tabloid has inspired journalists who each day create punchy and witty headlines and simplify the hardest story, so the FT has journalists who provide insightful commentaries.
They also have cutting wit though.
Last week end the Music Section of the FT (yes, it has one) had a review by Peter Aspden of the Spice Girls and contained this absolute gem
"To judge by the video (of Headlines), it is the kind of reunion I imagine when the former states of Yugoslavia get together to discuss mutual sewage needs.......they adopt a series of poses and pouts that would shame a $10 drag act"
