Task brief

The task brief was emailed to the contestants on the 2nd of November 2009. The brief for the task is as follows:

Here Comes The Sun.

Send me one headline that you think will be on the front page of the Sun in January. Yes, it's a little while off, but December will be full of The X Factor. January will be in 2010. That's the future. Points will be awarded for accuracy (and, maybe, other stuff). So it's a Sun headline I want. Feel free to furnish me with any further details if you think you know what's round the corner.

Entries must arrive by the end of this month. No exceptions.

Task notes

Henning Wehn won the task with his headline prediction of 'HE DID IT AGAIN', after the darts player Phil 'The Power' Taylor successfully defended his World Championship title at London's Alexandra Palace on the 3rd of January 2010.
Stuart Goldsmith earned second place with 'MOON-CHEESE! - the French invade the Moon / Branson makes mad cheddar out of moon enterprises'. Although there were no headlines in any of the papers resembling this prediction, Alex appreciated the creativity of the entry.
