Not Private Eye
''Not Private Eye'' was a one-off spoof of the British satirical magazine ''Private Eye''.〔Magforum ()〕
== Overview ==
The spoof of ''Private Eye'' was published in December 1986 by Robert Maxwell, to celebrate his £55,000 libel victory over ''Private Eye'' caused by an accusation of attempted cash for peerages. It was printed using the facilities of the ''Daily Mirror'', of which Maxwell was the owner.
''Private Eye'', meanwhile, was trying to sell a Christmas edition (at £1 rather than the then-usual 45p) in order to cover the costs of the libel case, estimated at £255,000. W H Smith was refusing to stock it.〔Magforum ()〕 During this time Peter Cook led a "raid" on the ''Mirror'' offices which, according to Ian Hislop, he began by sending a crate of whisky to the people working on ''Not Private Eye'', guessing that they would prefer not to be doing it. The group then successfully entered the Mirror offices, removed the proof copy of ''Not Private Eye'', drank champagne in Maxwell's office and were eventually removed by security.〔 ''Parkinson'' interview of Ian Hislop, 25 March 2002 ()〕〔Private Eye: The First 50 Years, Adam Macqueen〕
