Fair enough - but this is <awe+reverence>The BBC News</awe+reverence> So getting it right (and not misleading) should trump the mere impossible :) IIRC some time ago (months/years) there was something vaguely fraudulent/misleading/prankish that was backed by an out-of-context but genuine BBC story whose date was not obvious. And it still doesn't excuse the front page dynamic links being 'gamed' to point to a years old piece. I expect 'most emailed' to be limited to stories from the last few days.
