If you have The Independent newspaper subscription, then you may notice that Friday 23rd March’s issue is a little bit different to the norm – which will be something to do with the fact that David Walliams will be guest-editing!
In aid of Sport Relief, Walliams will be running the show and will feature articles from the likes of Richard Curtis, Alan Carr, Rob Brydon and Dermot O’Leary, interviews with Bill Gates, Eddie Izzard and Thierry Henry and a photo shoot by Alasdair McLellan featuring Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Lara Stone (no surprises there really seeing as she’s married to Walliams!).
All proceeds of sales will go straight to Sport Relief – who have seen a bevy of celebrity fund-raising recently, including John Bishop’s Week of Hell, Freddie Flintoff’s quest to smash world records and Helen Skelton reaching the South Pole. We do love a good cause!
Current editor of The Independent, Chris Blackhurst said: "I'm happy to give up my seat to David. He has been planning this issue for some time, and has quite a few surprises in store.
"From football and fashion to celebrities and the arts, there really is something for everyone in this very special issue."
If you don’t have a subscription to The Independent newspaper, be sure to pick one up on Friday and give to a good cause and then be sure to subscribe and save on a The Independent newspaper subscription today.
