Straight to the POINT

WHO’S playing Demelza’s new Poldark pal (Mail)? I was surprised it was Dawn French — it looked like Mrs Brown to me. MICHAEL JENNINGS, Hartley, Kent.

THE only person who should be allowed at the side of a football pitch (Letters) is the trainer, with a bucket of cold water and a sponge. That would cut down on players feigning injury. ROBERT DIXONS, Doncaster, S. Yorks.

COLEEN ROONEY would certainly know where Wayne is if he becomes a TV pundit (Letters). Equally he always knows where she is — out shopping or on holiday. ANTONY DEAN, Keighley, W. Yorks.

TO TACKLE the obesity crisis, TV cooking programmes should be banned — with the exception of Nigella’s, of course. ROY MARTIN, Maidstone, Kent.

PEAKY BLINDERS star Cillian Murphy might have ‘come-to-bed eyes’, according to Amanda Platell. It’s a pity I can’t understand a word he says. VERNON SMITH, Lincoln.

DRIVE-THROUGH coffee shops at motorway services? Surely the idea of services is to take a break from driving. Isn’t it illegal, not to mention stupid and dangerous, to have a cuppa at 70mph? C. BIRCHFIELD, Woodley, Berks.

I DON’T like the result of the Commons vote, so can MPs try again until they reach the decision I want? IAN JOPSON, Cardiff.
