Preview notes (not visible on the live site). "The Haute Minute" uses the story's own standfirst or opening lines - no copy is invented. This story has no editorial FAQ yet: add a vk_faq custom field with one Question|Answer per line and the FAQ section plus FAQPage schema appear automatically. This story has no H2 subheads, so there is no "On This Page" nav and nothing for an answer engine to quote as a section.
