Each day the editor of the Northern Echo Peter Barron challenges BBC Tees to come up with a better headline for one of their stories.

Friday's headline challenge and The Northern Echo go with the story about Environment Secretary Caroline Spelman & her humiliating climbdown over plans to sell off our woodland...

The Northern Echo's headline "Yew Turn".

BBC Tees went with "Tories Tree Sense".

Steve, our independent adjudicator, gave the point to The Northern Echo today. This means the week ends with a respectable 4-4 draw.
