The Week is the great intellectual Aspirin of our age – the soothing remedy for information overload.

Before the arrival of The Week in 1995, it was impossible to keep pace with the welter of news and views coming from all directions - magazines, blogs, reviews, broadsheets, tabloids, internet, foreign press, specialist press and television… With so many disparate opinions and standpoints the reader may well have their own paper’s take on an issue, but did they know what the others were saying?

For over a decade, The Week has done all the hard work for you, distilling the complexity of large amounts of fact and opinion into comfortable, easy-to-swallow portions, whilst doing so with immense style and wit.

Although it may cover the serious issues featured in the national and foreign press, The Week is frothy too, with sections on the absurd stories of the week and the more heart warming ones.

In short, The Week does what no other news source can do: it makes you think and feel better.
