    Time and tide changes people.
    What was OK when I was single is certainly different when a (Filipina) wife and little kids enrich a man's life.
    I would like my daughter to grow up knowing that women standing in just their knickers is not the best way of portraying themselves.

    It seems that peoples' feelings have changed anyway reflected in this paper's change of attitude.

    My feelings haven't changed. Page 3 made the sun and this is very sad news IMO. :(

    The Sun newspaper will never be the same without the page three girls, its the thing that gives the paper character.

    I have never bought a copy of The Sun newspaper but did see it lying around in canteens, oil rigs, ships etc..

    Not seen page 3 for a few years, but I thought it was topless, not full nudity.

    There is a big difference between aesthetically posed photos and hardcore porn, I guess that most people who celebrate this change never read the Sun anyway.

    Standard joke: Thanks for the mammaries.

    Somehow I get the feeling Al, that the bit I highlighted above is an incredibly subtle comment on the overall value of the Sun newspaper :D

    Not really a fan of The Sun, but must admit this is funny. Great wind up by them.

    I used to buy the Sun years ago.

    Haven't done so for quite a while.
    I don't see the need to have my intelligence insulted, the Daily mail does so on a regular basis, and there is only so much intellectual abuse one can take....

    Timmers, the question is fine but the smiley is in bad taste mate, me personally I hate football don't support anyone and never have apart from to save my skin when caught between opposing factions, it's something I would never care about anywhere but down here in Liverpool what happened back then matters.

    I didn't realise the relevance of the Sun newspaper until recently, One of the chaps I was working with from Liverpool was asking where his Daily Mirror was in the canteen and I innocently said "I thought you read the Sun" (hinting at the page three thing) and then he told me the story of the Sun and the Hillsborough tragedy. Its a long time ago and should be forgotten by now, we all know not to believe what the papers print.

    A lad I knew died on that day, lovely lad

    I wouldn't read the Sun if it was delivered free.
    Timmers,
    We shouldn't forget what the Sun wrote on that terrible day in Hillsborough.
    What the Sun printed was outrageous and deeply saddening to the families of the bereaved.
