I love the word “FREE” - it is definitely, and categorically, the most Beautiful word in the English Language. When this Beautiful word is linked to the words ’Daily’ and ‘Newspaper’ - Then you have my absolute, unswerving and - undivided attention. I still remember that happy day when myself and good lady jumped on a bus going into Glasgow Town and noticed something different, everyone had their faces 'stuck' in a newspaper. Whit !! Now - where we live and get on the bus, no-one can afford a newspaper, that was why we noticed the difference. Then we noticed that there was a wee ...  Read the complete review

I first saw the Metro newspaper when I had to get the bus to work one day around three years ago and I could not believe there was a free newspaper on the bus! As I got off the bus and had to walk across town to get to work, I saw five people giving out the Metro and I was amazed I did not know this existed before. The Metro is a free newspaper that is put on buses, at train stations, on tubes and handed out in the street in the early morning (8-9am is the best time to pick one up I find). It is the same size (dimensions) as The Sun newspaper and is roughly around 58-64 pages long. It is pretty much the same as something like The Sun (minus the page three ...  Read the complete review

I do not often travel by train - maybe only a few times a month for work. However when I do travel by train one of the only things I look forward to is picking up my free copy of The Metro. This newspaper is excellent. The fact that it is available daily and is free makes people much more likely to pick one up - if I was a company looking for somewhere to advertise it is certainly a paper that I would consider. Each time I travel I see lots of people reading this paper and there is such consideration by people leaving it behind them on the train for the next peson to peruse and while away some time with! The are various sections within the paper ...  Read the complete review

The Metro is a free newspaper available daily throughout the regular working week (not weekends or bank holidays) that is generally aimed at commuters using public transport. The paper is listed as being distributed in Bath, Birmingham, Brighton, Bristol, Cardiff, Derby, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, Leicester, Liverpool, London, Manchester, Nottingham, Newcastle and Sheffield however I pick up my copy in Coventry so it is also available in other areas. It is generally found at various train stations as well as tube stations on the London Underground and I am able to get my copy from most busses in Coventry. I have to say that as far as free newspapers ...  Read the complete review

Thankfully, I only have a 40 minute commute into the centre of London, long enough for a catch up snooze, gossip with a friend, or to read my favourite - and free morning paper. Since commuting by train (I used to travel by bus) I have been lucky enough to have a companion all the way. This, being my daily dose of Metro. It's a free paper, not unlike your Daily newspapers that keep commuters happy and cleaners in a job! It is set out in the same way as a Daily, Big news on the front, sport at the back, celebrity gossip pages, war, adverts, jobs, travel in the middle etc. Today's fix came in the shape of a 52 page edition with Barack and Mrs ...  Read the complete review
