Does anyone ever look at this? its so ridiculous its unintentionally funny. Al of the letters to it are obviously made up fantasies to titilate the masturbating masses, part of the distraction of the herd which is the aim of much of the media anyway.

Today's was hilarious, this bloke told his wife about his mistress and, instead of being angry, she wanted to join in!!

The western world is going bankrupt but as long as the masses are kept thrapping, thats all that matters

Never seen it, but I've heard from someone at the Mail that the 'problems' and answers are usually made up in the pub. In local papers the job was given to the youngest trainees, allegedly.

With several layers of satire.

Dear Deidre is comedy gold even if it's fairly obvious most of it is made up.

It's like the horoscope, the writers don't take it seriously, the more intelligent readers see that it's fiction, but some take it at face value. There was a small scandal about 50 years ago when the Mirror was exposed (journos getting pissed and writing the problem page and half the letters in the pub) and some people felt very let down. Amazingly enough.

I could come up with some right corkers after a few beers inside of me. Though they would be so bizarre they would never make it to publication.

I wonder if ant 'Dear Deidre' emails went astray when 'The Sun's web page was hacked? Could prove embarrassing for people who revealed intimate details to Deidre.

Me and a mate at work have sometimes floasted the idea of writing a letter into Dear Dierdrie just to see if it was published, it would be something totally ludicrous and made up, involving feeders or felching or losing your lower intestines in a swimming pool. like in Haunted by Chuck Palhanuik

I started writing a film based off a Dear Deirdre letter! (And, no, it's not a porn film!)

I used to like the Deirdre's Photo Casebook in the NOTW - not sure if it's in the Sun. Totally ridiculous 'problems' mainly involving slappers and douchebags not wearing many clothes and looking fed up.

I remember a classic round on HIGNFY where they had Claire Rayner on with Hislop and Martin Clunes and Neil Morrisey on together on the other team (don't know where Merton was) and they had to guess what was being said in a Dear Deirdre photo album thing. Absolutely hilarious.

Reclaiming "methinks" for the nation

Latest blog post - 2011 - a review (updated 07/10)

It's like Nuts, with 'interviews' with lingerie models who apparently love being leered at by blokes on the street, and aren't interested in money or good looks.....or charm.......or personal hygiene.....the kind of man they really find most attractive is a Nuts reader.

Just has to have a good sense of humour, innit?

I'm not entirely sure those go unendorsed though; I imagine part of their success is perpetuating the misbelief that "you, fat, blokey minimum-wage earning guy with nothing going on, you can have sexual intercourses with me, a model".

Allegedly the same person used to submit porn true story letters and sun problem page letters when skint.

Or so I have been told.
