Role playing

YOU publish a rather fetching photograph of Irish “actor” Saoirse Ronan who will play the title role in a new film about Mary, Queen of Scots (“Speaking our language: Historical films give a boost to Scots tongue”, The Herald, August 23). Should an actress not have been chosen to play this part?
