[00:01.62]The oldest and most famous quality newspaper

[00:04.40]is The Times,

[00:05.71]but the best selling ones nowadays,

[00:07.83]are The Telegraph and The Guardian.

[00:10.25]Finally, there is The Financial Times,

[00:12.88]a pink business newspaper

[00:14.59]which is now the most important international

[00:16.55]business newspaper.

[00:18.15]The two types of newspapers

[00:19.95]are an interesting part of British culture.

[00:22.38]The "quality" papers

[00:23.27]are large and inconvenient to read.

[00:25.85]For many years, people have been wondering

[00:27.55]why they refuse to change their size.

[00:29.91]However, many other people like the size

[00:32.57]of the "quality" papers

[00:33.98]because it shows that they are not reading

[00:35.66]a tabloid,

[00:36.82]and are therefore reading a serious paper.

[00:39.40]Recently things seem to be changing.

[00:41.99]The first quality paper

[00:43.44]that started producing a tabloid format

[00:45.65]was The Independent, and puite soon after that,

[00:48.36]The Times produced a tabloid version too.

[00:51.67]Feedback on such changes is varied.

[00:54.38]For some people, this is not popular

[00:56.60]because they want their serious paper

[00:58.20]to look like a serious paper.

[01:00.19]For others, it is good to have a newspaper

[01:02.32]that is interesting,

[01:03.74]intelligent and also convenient to read.
