Letter: Widescreen dreaming

Published 26 November 2008

From David Wilks

If it is truly possible that after watching a lot of black-and-white TV programmes you can dream in black and white (25 October, p 15), will watching a widescreen TV make you dream in 16:9 aspect ratio, rather than old-fashioned 4:3? Will we soon dream of menus offering chapter selection and extras? I rather look forward to the cast and crew interviews.
