Golden Globes | Snowed in | Early abstract act | Dinosaur tracks | Creme Egg
A caveat to any good news about roles for older women (Demi, Jodie and Nicole: is Hollywood finally ready to recognise complex female characters over 40?, 6 January), the Golden Globes were a depressing line-up of emaciated women with plastic faces. How can we celebrate a 50-year-old actor if she is not allowed to look 50?

• I can’t think of a better place to be incarcerated than Tan Hill Inn (‘It makes you feel like a kid again’: snowed in at Britain’s highest pub, 5 January). I’ve happy memories of taking refreshments there when walking the Pennine Way. I got locked in my local leisure centre on Saturday. It could have been serious – the snack machine was out of order.
