Sir, – My enjoyment of the opening part of the Haughey story was diminished by the necessity of identifying politicians by their hairstyles. Myself and my wife spent more time arguing about who was who than following the storyline. For the opening instalment, could the makers not have briefly provided the characters’ names with a small strapline or subtitle? – Yours, etc,

Sir, – I enjoyed the Charlie drama thoroughly and commend all those involved, particularly the actors and writer, for their efforts. The fact that I enjoyed the show is all the more remarkable in that I had forgotten what a depressing dump this country was in the 1980s. – Yours, etc,

Sir, – Well that’s my nominee for best wig sorted. Joking aside, Aidan Gillen was excellent. – Yours, etc,
