"I am very disappointed to see that foie-gras has once again been featured on Come Dine With Me. Surely the programme makers vet what contestants are using, so it would presumably be easy to veto its use for ethical reasons. However, allowing it to be cooked and served on Come Dine with Me helps popularise foie-gras and can only drive the abject cruelty behind its production. I am asking that the Channel 4 take the ethical decision to dump foie-gras from its programming."

Opinion Highlights
We get loads of emails, calls and letters from viewers asking questions, leaving comments or letting us know just what they think! So we thought we'd highlight some here, as well as pass on info around the most asked questions of the week.
We've had a number of comments from viewers recently and respond to the above complaint as follows:
Whilst we have not featured any contributors who have served foie gras in some time on the TV show, as Come Dine With Me is a competition the choice of menu is entirely up to the contestants. All of the contestants own recipes from the programme are shared online so that viewers can choose to cook them if they wish to. Foie Gras is not an illegal or banned substance in the UK however, having said that, we have also had people on the show who do not agree with the serving of fois gras, so we do feel that we have represented both sides of this debate.
90210 is one of my favourite programmes and the majority of my friends too. Can you tell me when the next series starts?
We've had a lot of queries about the start date for Series 5 of 90210. We don't have any info on the start date just yet - but once we do we'll post it here or, you can tweet us via @4viewers and we'll tweet you back when we know.
