Sorry, the last para was meant for a different thread.

Even more sickening is what you can read about Paula Vennells (yes I know it’s Wikipedia)

Am I missing something? where's the other thread for this? I can't find it. Strange? I thought I saw a link to a petition on it. Only caught up with it last night, absolute rage were my feelings, I knew the bare bones of the situation, so pleased the programme had been made and brought to the public's attention.

Absolutely shocking especially saying that each were the only people who had a problem. Peoples lives were ruined and they still havnt paid out 20 years later, Shame on them.

I think the thread title of the other one was misleading to be fair as it said Mr Potts v the post office.

Did anyone else watch this?

I could hardly bear to watch it as I know all about the scandal and its aftermath ( I think the Inquiry is ongoing and so is the fight for compensation) How hundreds of people's lives were completely ruined by a corporate cover up of a faulty computer system.
