There’s no rest for the wicket watchers

The question of whether Jamie Overton taking Devon Conway’s wicket in the third England v New Zealand Test was the first instance of someone dismissing a batsman with the same name as the county of his birth (23 June) inevitably set me thinking, as pointlessly esoteric cricket questions always should. No, is, as I rather hoped, the answer: in the second innings of the England v Queensland match in Brisbane in 1979, Martin Kent was dismissed by Graham Dilley (born in Dartford in 1959).

• No mention of The Train (1964) with Burt Lancaster and Paul Scofield (The 20 best films set on trains – ranked!, 23 June)? Its masterful camerawork brings the mechanics of steam railways to life, and it’s a fine psychological study of the obsessions of two characters and the conflict between the value of art versus the value of human life.

• I remember Paul Jones standing on one leg (Letters, 27 June) while he sang Pretty Flamingo as Manfred Mann’s lead singer on Top of the Pops in 1966. He is still going strong and was recently at Ronnie Scott’s.
