Paper Cuts “King Trump” sparks UK press fury – ”Get out my pub!” 40 Years of Eastenders – The Mail’s Viagra betrayal
We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: None of the papers are backing Trump’s Ukraine plan and Marina explains why Europe should be worried about the President’s arrangement with Putin. Meanwhile, The Telegraph is calling on Gen Z to rise up and save EastEnders, as Jemma unpacks how the show has maintained its cult following for 40 years. Plus—Miranda has unearthed some top-tier middle-class dilemmas from The Daily Mail, as a treat for Dan.
Miranda Sawyer is joined by comedian and bon vivant Daniel Foxx and the phenomenal hosts of The Trawl: Marina Purkiss and Jemma Forte.
