  • Great journalism

    The work that has gone into this podcast is incredible. I love that it’s not just the journalist telling the story. People directly affected talk about how they were affected and the ongoing ramifications - it’s very moving. The government could perhaps have a listen and make a decision to do something to get this sorted out (and the perpetrators penalised.) Those who were ripped off by Post Office have waited far too long.

    Thank you for the high calibre journalism Nick (and your team).

  • Thank you for this series!

    I have never heard of this scandal until I came across this podcast. Once I started listening, I couldn’t stop! Compelling presentation and heartwrenching. Thank you for presenting and explaining what happened. My heart goes out to all who were affected by this gross miscarriage of justice. God bless them all. Because of this podcast I’m now watching the new streaming series, “Mr Bates vs. the Post Office” to get even more insights. Thanks again, well done!
