Well today's the day - and BBC News won't STFU about it so I'm sure Murdoch is glad of the free publicity paid for by the licence payer.

Anyone buying it? Or do you not care and share the opinion that The Sun is a crock of st anyway as was NOTW ?

tosh but clever marketing. Working behind thr scenes for weeks/months on this, but then announce (by Murdoch personally arriving in their office) that a new paper will launch in 1 week is very clever PR. Can they do it, etc etc

I believe tv adverts alone take weeks to prepare and agree a slot

As a typical, snobbish PHer, I have never bought any Sunday paper other than the Times.

When I leave the house to buy it today, I am going to buy a copy of the SoS to show my support...I might even get two :-)

I've ungraded to toilet paper so can proudly say I'll never buy either the sun nor the sun on Sunday paper ever gain. Its not advisable anyway as it was like using sanding paper. The mirror use far more quality materials in their paper.

I'm in this club. But it does frustrate me that so many are likely to buy it. Stupid people, where would we be without them eh? hehe

Amazed at how much time the BBC have given it.

Still, it'll sell by the truck load and fill the gap in roop's wallet left by the NOTW. Plus the mouthbreathers will like it.

No harm really. Until they start doing illegal stuff again, of course.

Anyone remember when The Sunday Times was a decent newpspaper? It's not anymore & hasn't been for a long time. In fact, I don't consider we have one decent Sunday newspaper anymore.
