single magazines
 
Is there some way to order single issues (not a subscription, not Kindle/iphone) of British magazines online in or to France?

I tried to google that, but didn't succeed - all I get is for subscriptions only (stuff like the Octonauts children's magazine).

Have you tried the British Corner Shop? I know they do magazines but I didn't really look as I don't want any.

You would probably have to go to the distributors uk website and order a back issue. Most mainstream magazines have this facility.

Yes, I'd looked at the British Corner Shop. They didn't have what I was looking for, but there's a "suggest products" page.

Ask a friend back in England to send you a copy out.

Yes, I'm afraid that'll be the easiest way, after all.

Where are you in France? & what magazines are you looking for? Without googling to see if they still exist, Atticus +'Tea & Tattered Pages in Paris spring to mind, to only name a couple of places. Also local news agents' in various provincial & sometimes unlikely places, & shops at airports, even regional ones, where flights from UK land ....
