**** is a defunct British (and formerly an Australian and South African) lads' magazine published weekly by Bauer Media Group in the United Kingdom.
It was launched on 29 January 2004, and for a time was the UK's only men's weekly after the similar and rival magazine Nuts closed in April 2014.
On 17 November 2015, **** announced on its website that it would be suspending publication.
**** consisted of a mix of comedy news, sports commentary, photos of glamour models, jokes (of the pub joke style), an entertainments guide (covering TV, cinema, video/computer games and music), fashion/grooming and comical/rude pictures sent in by readers.
