The Mail trainees had another amazing week. They all spent Monday out and about in London and Windsor getting stories from people in the crowd at the Queen’s funeral. There were bylines for those working for the Daily Mail and Liv Dean and Sabrina Miller were published online with a story about the chaos after the funeral. Will Holmes also got a byline on MailPlus for a story about the Windsor farmers who formed a guard of honour with tractors.

The trainees had a session with group digital editor Ailsa Leslie on MailPlus. She also taught them how to use the Glide software. They covered a live breaking story in real time and built it on MailPlus. Dom Lee created the best page - including a photo gallery - and won a scratchcard. Associate chief sub Rich Hall talked to the print subs and Tahar Rajab went through SEO with the online trainees. Head of production Chris Dean examined the paper in detail and Harry Howard talked about his role as history correspondent. The reporters prepared newslists for their placement and the subs drew up proposals for a new supplement which they will create next week. I debriefed the reporters this afternoon before they head off on placement while copytaster Lottie Young put the subs through their paces with practical work. As usual we finished with the newsquiz. This week’s winner was Will Holmes with 16.5, just ahead of Isabella McCrone on 16 and Dom Lee on 15.5. The highest scoring reporter over the three weeks was Liv Dean who collected a bottle of champagne. Well done Liv. The three online trainees and two Mail on Sunday reporters now head off on their placements. They are a talented and likeable bunch and I wish them well.
The top solo scorer in last week's quiz was Jayme Bryla with 19.5 ahead of Marguerite Turner on 19, Etan Smallman and Robert Rea on 18.5, Toby Brown on 17.5, Stuart Bagnall and Will Holmes on 17 and Liv Dean on 16.5.
The top team was Maura and Phil Parsons with Will on 22.5, ahead of The Mountain Men (featuring Adam, Lucy, Damian, Neil, Tim and Stafford) on 20.5, Joe and Lou Hart on 20, the Three Legs drinkers of Thom, Tim, Les and Peter on 19.5, Bruce and Sarah Hayward on 17.5 and Sarah Cockerill and Joe Everton on 17.
