You do have to think carefully about some of these, and remember that newspaper headlines often have a word or two omitted so that the headline will be snappy and attention-grabbing. The downside is that often the papers go to press with a more comical headline than was planned!

Keep an eye out for national and local newspapers that may have made 'comical' headlines!

Maybe you could share them with us and we will issue another collection of the best.
