The Neverending Story

‘NO PRIZES for guessing the big story in this week’s OK! magazine. It’s the wedding of Jack Ryder and Kym Marsh, and OK! has the ”WORLD EXCLUSIVE” – which must have annoyed all those American magazines desperate to pay top dollar for the story.

”Will you marry me? Think of how much we’ll make…”

But to the victor go the spoils, and OK! is proudly displaying its spoils at the front of the stall.

”ALL THE PICTURES THE WORLD HAS WAITED TO SEE,” it calls to passers by. ”THE DRESS, CEREMONY, CELEBRITY BRIDESMAIDS, RINGS, STAR GUESTS AND INTIMATE INTERVIEWS.”

Phew! Quite a list. They’re going to need a lot of space to fit that lot in. Luckily though, they have found space: pages 46 to 73, to be precise.

And very nice it is too, with lots of pictures, and an interesting interview too, in which they talk about their vows, their religious views, the wedding dress, the rings, the name-change, the honeymoon, the guest-list, and all sorts of other delightful things.

In fact, there are so many interesting things that not only do we not have room to go into them, but even OK! itself can’t do the story justice in a mere 27 pages.

So in next week’s issue we get part two (”JOIN THE COUPLE AT THEIR STAR-STUDDED RECEPTION FOR A NIGHT TO REMEMBER”). Ask your newsagent to reserve you a copy.

And don’t forget to take your medication.’
