Content

Throughout the reality series, ten celebrities have to compile and construct a celebrity based magazine called Deadline, which will then be added as a supplement in weekly issues of Closer magazine. Each week, the celebrity figures will have to fill the twelve empty pages of their Deadline magazine with real-life stories, celebrity gossip and celebrity photographs. The magazine must consist of one real-life story, a celebrity interview and a gossip page. These ten celebrities are required to take celebrity photos themselves and therefore become acquainted with a high-tech camera and establish themselves as a temporary member of the paparazzi. They must photograph every celebrity they encounter and secure the picture for the all important front page. For the 2006 game, see Paparazzi (game). ...


Each week, chief editor Janet Street-Porter, picture editor Darryn Lyons and copy-editor Joe Mott are then required to decide on three celebrities who have performed the poorest and consequently sack one of the three celebrity journalists, basing their decision on their overall performance and participation within the formation of the magazine edition. When it is time to reveal the celebrity who is going to be sacked, Street-Porter calls all of the remaining celebrities into the board room and gives the three chosen for a potential sacking, to justify why they should stay on the magazine. With no further discussion, Street-Porter instructs one of them to "clear your desk." The winner of the series will receive a £50,000 "bonus". Janet Street-Porter (born December 27, 1946) is a media personality in the United Kingdom. ... Darryn Lyons is an Australian paparazzi and media personality, best known for his work in England. ...
