big font size - bold newspaper aimed at working class / potentially young adult or older person - implies working class due to big emphasis on a soap opera (older audience for the 70s corrie?)
Lots of bright primary colours allows to potentially appear to younger audiences too
image of a pub in headlines - potentially appeals to working class
small copy - emphasis on the headline and not the story - the ONLY copy on the page
Free puzzles special - also appealing to older people - old fashioned passtime
slang suggests the audience knows what the paper is talking about - reinforces the dominant ideology that british people watch soap operas
Less sophisticated - tabloid slang "tories"
Looks like a comic - square boxy layout front page resembles comics - informal mode of address
masthead at the top demonstrates the ideology of superiority & the slogan "the heart of britian" the foundation of britain
-lexis of "sir greedy" not his real name - informal and slang, clear political bias
caption tells us his actual name
painting him as sir greedy
against conservatives - spinning the story - pro labour, left wing newspaper - critical of the business man which is a left wing ideology
puzzles free so they appeal to a working class audience - sell line
85p - a bit more expensive, but cheaper than some e.g the guardian
