In “A Man Called Che”, an elderly Spanish gentleman turns up at a lawyer’s office in Tampa, Florida claiming to be Che Guevara, the communist revolutionary. Is he who he says he is? And, what does he want from the lawyers?
In the second story “We have a Problem”. The truth about the Apollo 11 landing on the moon is revealed. The whole episode was filmed in a Hollywood film studio. Many people already know this. But, do they know that the Russians got to the moon first?
The play “Romeo and Juliette” by William Shakespeare is revealed to be a forgery. Gutter Press found the original version in a dusty old library which had been banned by the Elizabethan censors 500 years ago.
“Interpretation of Dreams” records that the Russian dictator Joseph Stalin hired the psychologist Sigmund Freud to analyse his nightmares. This is a state secret only known to the KGB.
In “Mortuary Rock” our investigative reporter interviews a person who prepared Elvis Presley for his fake funeral. Yes, Elvis did not die in 1977. What actually happened was that Elvis held his final rock concert in the mortuary. This is front-page stuff and as usual Gutter Press is first with the news.
“Climate Change” when applied to the United Kingdom is something everybody would like.
“Gonna Make America Great”. Well…. if a retired film actor like Ronald Regan can become President of the United States of America, why can’t Laurel and Hardy?
“Is That You?” is set in the future when the science of plastic surgery has improved to such an extent that anyone can look like their favourite film star. Be warned, though. There may be consequences.
“Love Fifteen” is a tennis match with a difference.
“The Darwinian School of Lying” proposes that lying is the logical outcome of Darwin’s theory of “the survival of the fittest”.
You are invited to join us for “Tea with Mrs Beethoven”. There’s lots of hot gossip to hear over tea with apfelstrudel.
“The Other Roswell Incident” finally puts paid to the US Government’s cover-up. The family who was involved in the incident wrote up their experiences in a diary which Gutter Press publishes for the first time.
“Walkies” is about Mrs Barbara Whitehouse, the lady with a TV show on dog training. But, did you know she also trained members of the British cabinet in total, slavish obedience to the Prime Minister?
“The Flight of the Icarus” describes the Wright brothers’ experiments with heavier-than-air, powered aircraft. They named their aircraft after the Greek legend of Icarus which was probably a mistake.
In the story, “E=M*C Cubed”, Gutter Press reveals that Albert Einstein did not discover the Special Theory of Relativity after all. His wife did. Only, she never received any recognition for her work. After many years of languishing in the shadow of her famous husband, Gutter Press is proud to reveal her contribution to science. Give the lady a fur coat!
“Kentucky Fried Colonel” reveals the truth behind the famous chain of fried chicken restaurants. Namely, that the founder, Colonel Saunders, was a vegetarian.
“The Immigrant” tells of the desperate attempts by Count Dracula to immigrate to the United Kingdom. After being foiled by bureaucracy and red tape, the Count has only one option left, namely, to immigrate illegally.
In “The Iceberg” the famous British murder mystery writer, Agatha Christie, writes her last novel during a luxury cruise. Unfortunately, she booked the cruise on a ship called The Titanic.
Do you believe in Santa Claus? Of course you do. Who else eats the biscuits and drinks the milk you put out on Christmas Eve along with your stockings? Pity poor Santa. Christmas is two weeks away, orders are piling up and the elves have gone on strike.
In “Thomas” our investigative reporter proposes an alternative version to the apocryphal “Gospel of Thomas”.
