Celebrating excellence in the field of local newspaper photography
Newcastle Evening Chronicle: Couple who thought they'd won £45m on the lottery blame somebody else
This story has it all. Joy. Mirth. Woe. Dashed hopes. Pointing at something. Stabbings. Lives cruelly crushed under the jack-booted heel of sickening, soul-destroying reality. More pointing.
That's the trouble with the lottery - it's a bloody lottery.

Local news photographers are hugely skilled and poorly paid, and get sent to photograph miserable people gurning at uncooked meat products. Here, we celebrate their work.

Once again, local commenters seem to have a report's subjects sussed, once again local news subjects seem to have no idea how they'll appear to their fellow citizens.
James, of Sibthorpe Street, North Shields, is unable to work after the trauma of being stabbed five times, in different incidents,
WTF!!!
Does this guy not think someone is trying to tell him something?
Do we WANT them in the gene pool?
Dam wrong button.
Living not too far (but far enough)from these potential Darwin Award winners I can confirm that the money was spent wisely on his favourite hobbies of drinking and pharmaceutical recreation. Stabbed five times? The Shields monkeys must be slipping - a couple of years ago they would have ensured he'd been removed from the gene pool at the first go. Ah, how times change.
