Did anyone see the 'discussion' between the 2 Muslim women about the wearing of the veil? One was for and the other against. It got very heated but I felt was interesting too. Especially the fact that apparently there is nothing in the Koran about the wearing of the veil - the custom was introduced by royalty hundreds of years ago to stop the poor people looking upon the faces of the royal ladies

Hi Kris, I too saw this,and wondered if anyone would comment on this. I thought how rude,opinionated,and aggressive,and very loud, no respect whatsoever,and only interested in her own voice. The older lady was trying to talk but kept getting interupted all the time. Poor Lorraine Kelly couldnt get a word in either. This woman was adding fuel to the fire,and did this situation no good whatsover. I have my own opinions on this,but will keep them to myself, they are going to have another debate on this.

I too thought that the pro - veil woman came across as very rude and opinionated _ I actually wonder whether they are planning another debate or whether Lorraine just said that to get the woman to shut up!
