I have an array of regex expressions that I apply to text returned from
tesseract.
Each match that I get then gets stored for future processing. However,
I'm struggling with one regex.
The problem is that:
1) with brackets round the titles it returns two matches.
2) without brackets, it returns nothing.
Can anyone point me at the correct syntax please.

[root@dev dev]# ./t
match1='Miss Jayne Doe' 'Miss'
[root@dev dev]# cat t
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my $T=<<EOF;
Customer name and address
Miss Jayne Doe
19 Their Street

In Yorkshire
IN1 3YY
EOF
print "match1='$1' '$2'\n" if ($T=~/^((mr|mrs|miss|dr|prof|sir)
.{5,}?)\n/smi);
print "match2='$1' '$2'\n" if ($T=~/^(mr|mrs|miss|dr|prof|sir
.{5,}?)\n/smi);
