• The extension to Tate Modern is another example of the trend to build atriums to nowhere (First look: inside the Switch House, 23 May). Such buildings welcome you into large airy spaces, usually with grand staircases and often with coffee bars and places to sit. But the bigger, significant spaces that you would expect these foyers to lead on to are not there. They are an end in themselves, and they are for people to wander up and down as on a boulevard. The Tate has clearly accepted what art galleries are really all about.

• Keen readers of the Arthur Ransome’s works will be wondering what will, in subsequent films, happen to Dorothea’s brother (Titty’s family furious over Tatty treatment, 25 May). Will he be rather formally referred to as “Richard” throughout or renamed “Dack”?

• Strange that the film-makers object to Titty, but not to Roger.
