Sheilas in shock

From Mr Richard Burnett Sir: When I read the article 'Mongrel b*st*rds (1 April) I couldn't help wondering about the immobility of the ladies pictured beneath Sir Leslie Patterson. Is it because they are rapt in intense pleasure? Or is it that they are transfixed with the sheer hor- ror of it all?
