Hold the Front Page Yorkshire Post (Sky Max Wednesday 18 January 2023)
Today Wednesday 18 January 2023, there is a new episode of Hold the Front Page.
Yorkshire Post Our newshounds are heading to the Yorkshire Post, a behemoth of a publication that bills itself as Yorkshire’s “National Paper,” as they prepare for the weekend’s editions. James Mitchinson, the intimidating editor, assigns our team members to work on the Post’s most important Saturday edition.
As they venture into the Yorkshire caverns in search of front page material, our reporters try their hands at restaurant and accommodation reviews and even cover potholes.
Later on, Josh writes about an unusual house for the real estate section, and Nish writes about unusual automobiles for the automotive magazine. Their travels around Yorkshire continue as they cover the 50th anniversary of Emmerdale, a long-running British soap opera, from inside the set.

Hold the Front Page follows the highs and lows of Nish and Josh as they travel across the UK working for a different local newspaper each week, on a mission to find real local stories strong enough to make the front page. Their investigative journey around Britain sees them delve into local mysteries, take part in unusual events, cover the burning issues of the day and even involve themselves in the news or enlist a celebrity or two to help them out along the way. But with almost no journalistic experience the pair have to rely on their quick wits and natural curiosity as they attempt to get to the heart of makes each town or village tick – digging up some extraordinary scoops. This is an eye-opening look at some of Britain’s amazing local communities through the lens of their local newspaper. What could possibly go wrong?
