Ham & High First Page Review

At the top left of the front page is the page number with a date line placed next to it. The website is placed in bold on the top right hand side. Below the date line and page number is a banner in a gold colour, giving the impression of a new colour scheme. On the left side of the page is a list of the contents, "contents" has been put in capitals and a red font, emphasising this is the title. The first article below the contents title, says "Sainsbury's boss tells of the new role at theatre" which is quite brief and to the point, showing the audience exactly what the article is about, yet also gives a brief description below, "David Tyler from the supermarket firm will run venue in his spare time" giving readers more information about the article without reading it, giving the page number the article is on next to it. The article below this says "GP's" out-of-hours services privatised" with a brief deception underneath saying "NHS trust angers campaigners by leaving local doctors off shortlist" with the page number next to it. There is another article below this with the same layout as the previous two. There is then a sub-heading in a bold serif font saying "Analysis" in gold below this, giving a more classy and less cheesy effect than most local newspapers. Below the sub-heading is the sub-article "Gates "spell death of community spirit" with a brief deception of what the articles about below. Below this is another sub-heading in the same bold serif gold font, saying "Talking point", with the sub-article heading saying "help our campaign to bring home the bacon", with a brief description below of what the article is about and the page number it can be found on. There is then a sub-heading below this saying "Regulars" in the same gold serif font, showing what is in the newspaper each issue. Below this there is a list of different topics included in the newspaper, such as restaurants, films, books, theatre etc. Below this there is a sub-heading saying "sport" with a brief description below saying "10 pages of the latest sports and reaction starts" which would mainly aim towards men. Below this is a box with the contact details of the newspaper, such as the address, phone number, e-mail address, website and twitter name, showing the magazine is up to date with technology and trying to get involved with each modern communication technology available. Below the banner there is the heading in heading "seven days" in red and capitals then next to it saying, "-Agenda for the week ahead with Rachael Getzels".  Below this is a sub-heading saying "Welcome" then giving a brief description what is in the newspaper.
