The main image occupies the whole of the right hand page and is a medium close up of a woman, presumably related to the TV show that the article is about. Her shoulder also starts to go on to the left hand page where the text then wraps around her image. This creates a very bold and striking image which makes the simple layout of the page more impressive. She is the same person who is in the secondary image on the left, however here she appears to be out of character, meaning she is trying to relate to us as her normal self.

The mast head is in a serif style font and is across the top left hand side of the page. This follows conventions as it is in bolder, larger writing than the main text and will catch your attention before any of the text. ‘Class warrior’ perhaps gives an insight into what the text is about and may interest this shows audience to read on.

The stand-first has been placed directly under the mast head before the main article. This helps to briefly summarize what the article is about so that it can interest the readers into reading it/watching it.

The secondary image is substantially smaller than the main image and has been placed in between the article in the middle of the page. It is a lot smaller than the main image so that our attention is drawn to her out of character first. She is shown dressed in character which is most likely relevant to the article which is about a program

The pull quote is placed directly under the secondary image, perhaps because it is a quote from the character in the image. Pull quotes are used to persuade the reader to read the article as an interesting quote may intrigue them to find out more.

Here we get information on the name of the program, the channel it will be on and the time. This is important as the main function of the article is to advertise the show and this is essential for anyone to be able to watch it.

The page numbers have been located in the bottom corners of the double page spread. This is so it is easier for readers of the magazine to find the page that this article is on.

This side quote has been placed in the top right corner so that it is out of the way of the image, however it’s still important as it relates to the main image by telling us who it is.

The main article has been split in to 3 columns which makes it easier to read and also gives the impression of an article format. A drop caps has been used to start each new section. They are an effective way of diverting the readers attention to the article whilst also adding personality and visual strength to the page.
