Weekly Illustrated was a weekly British magazine.

The magazine was refounded under the editorship of Stefan Lorant (1901–1997) in the 1930s. Photojournalists contributing to the magazine included Bill Brandt[1][2] and Felix H. Man. There were sometimes special issues for notable occasions such as coronations and royal birthdays,[3] or selected topics such as the Queen Mary liner.[4] Journalists working with Stefan Lorant included Tom Hopkinson (1905–1990), later knighted in 1978. Both were also editors of the magazine Picture Post.
