Post Office scandal TV drama "shows how evil they were"
A new ITV drama - "Mr Bates vs the Post Office" - tells the story of what is thought to be one of the biggest miscarriages of justice the UK has ever seen, when sub-postmasters were accused of stealing thousands of pounds.
More than 700 sub-postmasters were convicted of theft after the faulty accounting system Horizon showed money was going missing around the UK - Jo Hamilton, from South Warnborough near Basingstoke, was one of them. A Post Office spokesperson says they're "deeply sorry" and are doing all they can to right the wrongs of the past.
大象传媒 Radio Berkshire's Sarah Walker speaks to Jo Hamilton about her experience of being prosecuted - and how it feels to see her legal fight highlighted in a TV drama.
