Sir Albert Lamb (15 July 1929 – 19 May 2000), commonly known as Larry Lamb, was a British newspaper editor. He introduced the Page 3 feature to The Sun (for which he was editor from 1969 to 1972, and then again from 1975 to 1981), which saw a dramatic increase in sale in the 1970s. He also applied the term 'Winter of Discontent' to the series of strikes over the winter of 1978–79. He was Deputy Chairman of News Group from 1979 but was transferred to the Western Mail in Australia in 1981, and edited The Australian in 1982.

  • Larry Lamb, bürgerlicher Name: Sir Albert Lamb KB (* 15. Juli 1929; † 19. Mai 2000) war ein britischer Zeitungsredakteur. Er war von 1969 bis 1972 und von 1975 bis 1981 Redakteur bei der Sun sowie von 1983 bis 1986 beim Daily Express. Lamb wurde 1980 auf Betreiben Margaret Thatchers in den Adelsstand erhoben. Thatchers Wahlerfolg wurde von der Berichterstattung der Sun über den Arbeitskampf unter der vorherigen Regierung der Labour Party beeinflusst. Sein Spitzname wurde inspiriert von der Figur Larry the Lamb aus der Childrens Hour, einer ehemaligen Radiosendung der BBC für Kinder. (de)
