PRIVATE EYE MAGAZINE, THE BIBLE OF SATIRE, PRESENTS THE YEAR 2025 CE IN REVIEW
STARRING THE MOUNTBATTENS, BEN, VLAD, KEIR, AND DONALD

Private Eye is a British fortnightly satirical and current affairs news magazine, founded in 1961, 64 years ago!
It is published in London and has been edited by Ian Hislop since 1986. The publication is widely recognised for its prominent criticism and lampooning of public figures. It is also known for its in-depth investigative journalism into under-reported scandals and cover-ups.

The privately owned magazine Private Eye is Britain's best-selling current affairs news magazine, and such is its long-term popularity and impact that many of its recurring in-jokes have entered popular culture in the United Kingdom.

With a "deeply conservative resistance to change", it has resisted moves to online content or a glossy format: it has always been printed on cheap paper and resembles, in format and content, a comic rather than a serious magazine. Both its satire and investigative journalism have led to numerous libel suits.

Have I Got News for You is a satirical show by Private Eye editor Ian Hislop and by Paul Merton.
It premiered 35 years ago on 28 September 1990, and is broadcasted every Friday night at 21.00 UK time on BBC One.
You can find all episodes on YouTube.
