CAN I ask what Sedgefield has done to The Northern Echo?

Reading your paper after being at the Olympic torch relay parade I was looking forward to seeing some pictures from the event. Imagine my dismay to find images from all over the North-East – except Sedgefield.

Do we not deserve a picture in the paper? It’s bad enough the Trimdons didn’t have any part in the relay but for Sedgefield not to be acknowledged at all seems a bit unfair.

Is Sedgefield no longer important now that Tony Blair is no longer our MP?

Lisa Wilson, Trimdon.

• Sedgefield is in the heart of The Northern Echo’s circulation area and we always strive to do a good job. In this case, however, the number of relays meant that it was not possible for our photographers to cover every event. We regret not covering Sedgefield and, to make up for the disappointment, are printing a photo of torch bearer Gloria Burrows as she carried the torch through the village.
