Distaff dichotomy

-

THERE has been much criticism of the mostly female characters in Tv’s Bodyguard ( Mail). given that females are only 50 per cent of the population, the growing imbalance in our society in favour of women is becoming disturbing.

in addition to several female chief constables and high-ranking police officers, Tv sports presenters and newsreader­s, we also have a woman Prime Minister and leader of the green Party, london chief fire officer and Met Police commission­er. i am all for equality and women’s rights,

but isn’t this feminisati­on of British society going a bit far?

GEORGE SKELLY, Wallasey, Merseyside. NOT only is Bodyguard overwhelme­d with women, you hardly see a man on the morning news on Sky or the BBC these days. It’s typical of this country addressing an anomaly by going 180 degrees in the other direction.

JOHN BURKE, Hornchurch, Essex. AM I the only person who watched Bodyguard and didn’t notice or care about the gender of the actors? I just sat back and thoroughly enjoyed a good TV drama.
