the top of the page in the NewsUK database:
“This week’s problem: Marina has a problem with her children’s appearances. Her 14-year-old son is planning to get a ring through his nose, with or without his parents’ permission; her 12-year-old daughter wears mini-skirts so short her bottom shows. Marina wants to give them their freedom but doesn’t know how far she should go"

Letter to “Mr. Topa”
The above is from Maureen Pattison of Carlton Television.
I found this in a CAC file; Mark does not have a copy of his
letter of inquiry, but it should be evident from this reply what it concerned.
This was published here March 26, 2014; at the time I was scanning the CAC archive, and had forwarded
the scan to webmaster Nigel Meek, who insisted on redacting it.
