I beg to differ with Peter Bradshaw’s view that “no mainstream film is attacking Donald Trump’s administration head-on” (The Golden Globes ceremony ignored politics. But their big winner taps today’s unhappy turbulence, 12 December). We took our two granddaughters to see Zootropolis 2, in which a diverse pair of detectives (a fox and a rabbit) took on a narcissistic leader, demonstrating the importance and joy of all things DEI. Well done, Disney!

• I was saddened to read that Martin Kettle’s column this week will be his last (The world of today looks bad, but take hope: we’ve been here before and got through it – and we will again, 15 January). We shall miss his brilliant prose, shrewd political analysis and fierce intellect. With his departure, journalism will have lost a giant.

• With reference to the possibility of getting a robot to change a double duvet cover (Letters, 12 January), my old friend Miles Kington told me he was training a small dog to do it. I’m not sure how far he got before his early death.

• Regarding where the north starts and crossing the Tees (Letters, 14 January), I think you’re only there if you’re dotting the ayes.

• Many years ago I was doing some filming in Inverness. When we stopped for lunch, the pub owner asked where we were all from. When we said Glasgow, he replied: “Ah, down south.”
