Something quite interesting on the front cover of FHM this month besides Rachel Stevens, are the words 'under new management'. Yes, FHM has undergone another re-brand and in my opinion it's about time. Out with the deadwood (hopefully...)
Cover star is Rachel Stevens and the pics look original and generally quite good, they have been most notably shot on location rather than in a studio with a good mix of colour and black and white pics. We get around half a dozen or so full page pics and several small ones dotted around the text. It appears FHM is attempting to go more up market with it's Arena style of photography with this particular shoot and more generally with it's layout across the issue. It is a slight shame that they also decided to splash large text across most of the full page pics of Rachel (ruins potential scans). But that said, make no mistake this is 100 times better than the dross served up in this year's issues so far as far as the girl content goes.
We also get some decent pics of Isabel Lucas from Aussie's Home and Away (again, most pics outdoors but maybe lifted from the AUS FHM though) and two decent studio pics of Sarah Dunn (was in C4's Hollyoaks years ago).
Generally the whole issue seems worth a few quid and actually worth reading this month and is certainly a step in the right direction. Guess the question is can they keep the standard up especially as far as the Rachel Stevens shoot. I'm hope this issue isn't a flash in the pan.
