'Page 3' is the domain of the Page 3 girl (if it's in The Sun) or the Starbird (if in the Daily Star) where a young woman will pose in a state of undress ~ the operative word being 'topless' ~ accompanied by some text which was usually some tenuous innuendo and is now usually some disguised editorial.
Bloggerheads had a running eye on the accompanying text on The Sun's 'Page 3' as it were but had no stomach to continue after mid-September 2008 (very sporting of them considering the circumstances as The Sun continues to put words into the mouths of their models, and Bloggerheads could easily continue shooting proverbial fishes in barrels by attacking The Sun through this manner. Someone has to! Nobody else seems to care!).
A potted history of 'Page 3' can be read over at Wikipedia but the editors over there are feckless jobsworths with absolutely no compassion (more of that much later) that I'd urge readers to boycott Wikipedia in regards British glamour.
Where does the Daily Sport fit in with 'Page 3'? Well that publication is highly aggressive, sexually charged and thus very 'adult' in tone and they make no attempt to disguise it.
The Sun and the Daily Star in comparison like to have it's proverbial cake and eat it but in doing so there is a charm and a certain manner of how they go about it that usually makes it not so distasteful.
Fans of the uncovered female form though usually aren't known for their etiquette and their appetite for the flesh of nubile young women in states of undress would leave Dracula and zombies stumbling around in their wake.
