Ruth Langsford brands Roald Dahl book changes 'wrong' and 'dangerous' on Loose Women

Ruth Langsford has described changes to Roald Dahl 's books as "wrong" and "dangerous," expressing concern that children will soon become scared to be offended.

It comes amid reports that new editions of children's books by the late author have been edited to remove language that may be considered offensive or inappropriate.

The changes are said to affect certain references to weight, mental health, violence, gender, and race. They are said to have been the result of a review into Roald's works.
