The Post Office Horizon scandal has been dubbed the most "widespread miscarriage of justice in British legal history". Now it has been made into a TV drama. ITV's ‘Mr Bates vs The Post Office’ tells the story of how hundreds of local post office branch managers were wrongly accused of theft, fraud and false accounting over a 15 year period. Many were sent to prison, left financially ruined and dealing with the long-term impacts of having a criminal record. Report by Brooksl.
