All language subtitles for Mr Bates vs The Post Office 2024 S01E04 720p WEB-DL H264 BONE-eng

The computer system, post office,
spent an arm and a leg on, is faulty.

We're ready to mount and
fund an independent review.

Angela, nice to meet you.

Here to help.

We are hearing from
Bob that your organisation

has been obstructive
to his independent work.

But this is about the
reputation of the post office.

You are the chief executive,
so the buck stops with you.

Blood on the house now.

I am told that people are walking
out of their mediation meeting.

Our lawyers advise that
no mediation scheme has

the power to overturn
a criminal conviction.

You have broken your words to Parliament.

They say there's no remote access
to branch accounts, but they're lying.

There was a whole room full of
us inside Fujitsu doing thousands

of corrections on her eyes
and while a postmaster slept.

It may be possible to
raise the money to fight

them in court, but only if
there are enough of me.

How many would you need?
At least 500. I can do that.

There are a few specialist funders who
are prepared to take on this kind of risk.

If we win, we pay them back
out of your compensation.

If we lose, please.

Well, then they lose too.

Their entire investment.

It is high risk.

When all lose, it costs a fortune.

And there's no guarantee
we'll ever see a penny.

And I want to make it clear
that there are a few other things.

This group litigation is
not going to do for us.

I'm sorry, Joe.

Sorry, no.

But it's not going to overturn
any criminal convictions.

It's not going to discharge
anyone's bankruptcies.

It's not going to get back
any house repossessions,

and it's not going to repair
anyone's shattered health.

Or bring back those we've lost.

Well, also, I've got to say
there's a few of us here.

We've not much faith in the law
after everything that's happened.

I believe in British justice,
that's what he's saying.

Well, I've told you all the things
the laws not going to do for us.

But I want you to think about
what brought us together.

All those things that we've
been fighting for ever since.

Compensation.

Bigger than that.

Justice.

Bigger.

Is it truth? Exactly.

Yes, compensation.

Yes, justice.

But without the truth, we
can't do either of those.

Going to law will force the
post office to open their files.

So, finally, we'll get to know
everything the post office knows.

The truth.

The whole truth.

All those in favor.

Motion carried.

Yes, it's true that the post office will
now have to give us everything that God.

But it's also true that in fights like
this, the size of more money usually wins.

Unless something extraordinary happens.

Our whole case is something extraordinary.

Yes, yes, it is.

I couldn't agree more.

And what's very striking
is how many people rang

that helpline and were
told you're the only one.

I asked to see if that phrase
was in the helpline scripts.

And the post office said
there aren't no scripts.

Yeah, and anyone
who's run helpline knows

they parrot a script,
so it's clearly a lie.

So what happened to the principle
of give us everything you've got?

Well, whatever we asked them to disclose,
they either say the record doesn't exist,

or it's not relevant, and
whatever documents they

do provide are often pretty
much redacted to death.

Yes, I get the sense that none of
this is coming as news to Mr Bates.

Welcome to my world.

The price of everything.

I went looking for a dress,
but all I could afford is a scar.

Yeah, love, love, listen to me.

Did your mom tell you that
she had a doctor's apartment?

No.

But you better go and speak to her.
She's inside.

I got a new scarf for the court hearing.
You want to see?

I'm sorry, love.
I know you don't need this.

They need what?

I got counsel of.

In a place I didn't even know was a place.

Pancreas.

Does it hurt? Well, oh, good.

To look on that doctor's face, it
was me offering him the Kleenex.

You wouldn't tell me
how long I don't, but well.

Don't, don't.

Don't you worry about me.

You've got your taste to think about.

Look, I don't care about any of that.

Promise me?

On my life, you'll see it through.

Promise me, Joe.
You won't rest till the world sees me.

It is a baby held in my arms.

I promise.

I promise, well.

I'm sorry for your loss, Joe.

Five days, we had together.

Five more days on this earth.

Am I lucky my mum's gone?

We really didn't need to come today.

I made her a promise,
but she's not even buried

yet, so don't ask me what
just happened in there.

Well, there could be five
separate trials, but they're going to

make us wait another year
before they even start the first one.

And you won't get called as a witness, Joe.

They won't call anyone
who's got a criminal conviction.

Well, I'll still come
every day to support you.

Bates and others versus the post office.

I'll be others.

I told our lawyers. I said, "All right, you
can put my name on the tin if you want to.

That doesn't mean you have
to put me in the witness box.

Use the best people, Alan.

You are the best people.

"Certainly, isn't it this?

Three years ago, Paula Vennell's wrote,

"Is it possible to access
the system remotely or not?"

We are told it is.

And Paula then asks her
managers, "What is the true answer?"

I need to say no, it
is not possible, and

that we are sure of
this because of X, X, X.

I need the facts.

Wow, okay.

That is an email of Paula's
that arrived this morning

in a disclosure bundle,
and it wasn't even redacted.

Well, this is fundamental.

If we can prove their remote
access to your computers then.

I mean, that means all the
criminal convictions are unsafe.

I'm forward to hearing you ask
her about that in court, Patrick.

Unfortunately, the post
office also sent across

their final list of witnesses this
morning, and Paula Vennell's is not on it.

Ah, brilliant.

What?

What's she worried about?

That is a very strange decision.

Who are they putting up instead?

The People Services Director,
and... Angela Vanden Bogot.

They have more job titles and hot dinners.

She's like a stick of Blackpool rock with
post office written all the way through.

And she's a hard-faced cow.

Excellent. Why don't you tell us how
you really feel about her? Yeah, well.

Never mind.

Alan, wait, wait.

There is a possibility that Patrick can
still question Angela on remote access.

Where is it?

This is from Angela's witness statement.

Sub-postmasters are solely
responsible for their branch accounts.

There is no transaction that enters
their accounts without their consent.

Well, that's just not true.

And we know a man who can prove it.

Well, he would have whistled, though.

He'd be right inside looking
at some postmaster screen.

You could tell if he was busy,
you could see himself in his stamps.

Remote access.

Sometimes.

Not often.

Would go in using the postmaster's ID.

Find the cause of his
problems, fix it, come back out.

He'd never even know.

Which way it would look like
he'd made the changes himself.

Yeah.

Richard, what if he couldn't fix it?

What if he couldn't find
a cause? I don't know.

The postmaster took the blame.

I can't remember much detail.

And like I said to Alan,
I'm not prepared to go to

court or stick my neck
out in any way whatsoever.

Sure.

Sure.

No, no, no. It's not just that
Richard is too shy to give evidence.

He's got no evidence to
give, no documents, no email.

Alternative?

Oh, we really need him.

He's still the only fidgets are
inside her to ever come forward.

I meant ties.

Oh.

Maroon or Maroon.

Oh, I'm not even going to ask.

I think I took from the select committees.

It really helps to use your face.

You know, confused, skeptical, amused.

And that's your master
plan for the group litigation.

Make faces at the post office.

555 sub postmasters in our group.

And I have to go on first.

I do solemnly and sincerely and truly
declare and affirm that the evidence

I shall give to be the truth, the
whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

Good morning, Mr Bates.

Mr Bates would be
right to say that in terms

of due diligence, you
are quite a careful man.

Is that fair?

You're a details man.

Yes.

Had paragraph 15 of
your witness statement, do

you refer to being sent
an information sheet?

The sub postmaster is
personally responsible for all

losses or gains incurred
to post office cash or stock.

You were aware you would
be responsible for that loss.

However large it was.

At the time, we took over the post office.

Losses weren't a major concern.

The original deficits of 1,182 pounds.

That is a staff error, isn't it?

No.

No.

That was definitely horizon.

From my point of view,
without a shadow of doubt.

You got it in your mind, it was horizon
and forever more, it has been horizon.

No.

We jumped out.

The errors jumped out.

There couldn't have been anything else.

I put to you generally that the overwhelming
likelihood is that these deficits

were most likely caused by error or wrongdoing
in your branch by you or your staff.

That is the post office case.

Mr. Bates, that has been put to you so
that you can tell me what the answer is.

No, my lord.

No.

No further questions.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Bates. You are excused.

A details, ma'am.

Might use that at home.

Allen did OK, I think.

Just so bloody wet first.

I took over Barkham post office when my
husband died on the 3rd of August 1999.

So some 19 odd years ago.

It's first say your memory of the details
is probably pretty vague, is that fair?

No, I don't think so.

You are particularly stunning events
are they like a car crash or something.

Is that fair?

If you are talking about August 1999, then
yes, they are very similar to a car crash.

You are talking about your husband's death.

Yes.

Yes, I accept that.

Moving forward to your suspension, following
the L18,000 deficit found on the audit.

Well, I was staggered that I was suspended.

Absolutely staggered.

I was probably as angry and
upset as I have ever been in my life.

Because for the last six months I
had been asking post office to help

me find the source for these
alleged shortfalls in order that I could...

How can I put it?

It would start me from bombarding
them with phone calls, letters.

A lot of them might think, well I received
this letter, let's look at my contract.

Let's look at Section 19, paragraph
4, and see whether they are entitled to.

Well I couldn't do that.

I had no entry to my post office
from the day they did the closing audit.

They took the keys away and locked them up.

But my point is you
immediately blame it on horizon

without really casting
a minus or other Poles.

I dispute that completely.

I never used to be an angry person.

And it really works, doesn't it?

I wouldn't know, I don't get angry.

Well, I should give it a go, Alan.

I was the stress of all
this, I ended up killing it.

I had the post office chose three
witnesses and we chose three witnesses.

The post office is read 555.

Post-master statements, five that was made.

So they chose Muhammad to be a because
he has an accountancy qualification.

So just watch them and try to make
him extremely as well as dishonest.

Do you accept from me that
being involved over a period of years

as an assistant accountant means
that I can consider you as not?

Commercially naive.

I did not understand your question, please.

Refres it, Mr. Wentworth.

As at the time you
applied to post office, yes.

You were not commercially naive.

My lord, English is not my first language.

You had experience of commercial things.

You went, let's put me on
the spot trying to rephrase this.

At that time, I was just
thinking to buy the business,

donate, make my life better,
and serve the community.

This was my main ambition.

So if I am clear, honest.

So don't be afraid of signing
any contract with anybody.

Assuming that they are doing
everything for goodness of me.

And I had already
positive thinking about this.

Okay, I think you would agree that a
deficit of 4878 pounds is a serious matter.

Do you agree with that?

No, I didn't agree.

I told them everything,
what was the problem?

Have you read all the
documents which I submitted?

I ran the post office helpline.

Please, can somebody ring me?

Or come to my office
and resolve this problem.

But they said we don't believe
you, we have to suspend you.

I never thought that
I will lose everything.

When I will be working in the post office.

We are supposed to be
the most civilized country.

We don't expect anyone to
behave like the post office.

That's why they do this.

Well, that's the million-dollar question.

The QC was very clever.

Big, big, picking up your own stuff.

You did everything right.

Ah, I'm it.

You told the truth and
that's all that matters.

Truth is truth.

Truth is truth.

Can't hide it.

Well, that was brilliant.

He chose him and he smashed them.

Just a pile of ash or other
post office used to be.

Well, Angela Vanden Bogan
in the witness box tomorrow.

You get to ask the question.

Let's do.

And I've got plenty.

We get to see if we put
the right man for the job.

OK.

Miss Vanden Bogan.

If we could please look at Document G43/1.

So this is co-authored by you.

Horizon Help has since its
introduction over a decade ago,

fallen short of delivering the
functionality that was promised as part of

Horizon rollout, and that postmasters
and their assistance desperately need.

Yes.

That is an honest and candid internal
recognition of the situation, isn't it?

There were short comings
in the user experience.

It's... It's clunky.

Would be the word I would use.

Clunky.

Right.

So why don't you mention this
in your witness statement? I don't.

I suppose the length of my witness
statement, it's so long anyway that.

Was it your understanding
that there was a

restriction on the length
of your witness statement?

The witness statement in
itself is quite lengthy anyway.

And so I suppose it was just myself.

Mr. Green.

If we could go please to Document G38/2.

So it's 30th of January 2015.

Mrs. Venel's asks, "Is it possible
to access the system remotely?

I need to say no, it is not possible,
and that we are sure of this.

"So in 2015 it would be
wrong to say, wouldn't it?

That post office couldn't
remotely access Horizon data.

Post office can't.

Could he do it through Fujitsu?

Through Fujitsu? Yes, I can.

Yes.

You're going to have to
keep your voice up, I'm afraid.

I'm sorry.

I suggest you are hesitant to accept
anything that is damaging to post office.

That is not the case.

Do you feel pressure to protect
the post office brand now?

At this particular moment.

Yes.

No.

Can I just ask one simple question?

What exactly does protecting a brand mean?

It just means that one, it
is making sure that how we

do things, how we behave,
how we interact with people.

And it's just making sure that at
all times we are maintaining that.

Maybe about midnight,
that's pretty good for me.

All the meetings with
MPs, letters to the minister,

more ministers than
you can shake a stick at.

Years and years.

Still nobody in power is a word we say.

Let's brought this on.

Your ears on us, list.

God's sake.

Come on, turn it off.

Details, man, come to bed.

All of Reynolds has got the CBE.

Choking.

Services to the post office.

Always another trick of their sleeves.

We'll see you all there.

The post office now admit
they do have remote access,

but they insist it could
never happen without

the knowledge and
permission of a sub postmaster.

Well, they're wrong.

Of course they are.

But it's 15 years ago, more.

I can't remember the details.

I can't help you, Alan.

There must be someone else.

It's not that bad, honestly.

There will be loads of other witnesses.

I wasn't senior, Alan, not at all.

I'm a girlfriend really doesn't want
me draw an attention to myself.

Just have to talk to the judge.

Ignore everyone else.

You can really help us out there, Richard.

I'm still beyond for your tea.

I'll only disappoint you.

You'll be fine.

Joe?

What was it doing here?

I wouldn't miss this for the world.

A few jiu-jitsu technical supports,
given evidence under oaths.

The guy's quite shy.

Alan's worried about him.

A real life whistle, though.

It's going to be dying, am I, kid?

Mr. Rowe.

Would you accept that your recollection
of your time at Fujitsu is hazy?

It is quite hazy.

He could just be my perception
of events from 15, 17 years ago.

See, why not saying that you were
routinely encountering coding issues? Bugs.

You don't recall ever
having encountered a

bug that definitely
caused a financial impact.

I don't recall discovering one.

I'm going to move on to
remote access now, Mr. Rowe.

My suggestion to you will be that
you never, and would never manually

change a transaction line of data
that a Postmaster had keyed in.

Now, that is something we
did as far as I remember it.

But ultimately, the Postmaster would
be able to see what Fujitsu had done.

Is that true?

Again, my understanding
is that in certain

circumstances, the data
would be in indistinguishable.

Yes, that was what you were trying to say.

Yes, my lord.

You couldn't tell the difference.

No, you couldn't tell the difference.

Remote access to the horizon
system at branch level was extensive.

We had the ability to change
data and change transaction

information even while
the Postmaster was working.

Without the Postmaster being aware.

Yes, that is my understanding.

You're understanding.

No.

My recollection.

Thought he was great in the end.

I wonder if it's enough.

I asked you a question, Bob.

Years ago, when we first met.

Bob, where did all the money go?

36,000 pounds, they took off me.

Now, I think I can't prove
it, Joe, not yet, but I will.

The money you gave them
that they claimed you owed them,

hung around in some
sort of suspense account

for a while, while they
failed to investigate.

And after a couple of years,
your money, everyone's

money, it just showed
up in their profits.

My 36,000 pounds, that I didn't steal,

that they actually stole
off me to pay off a debt

that never existed, is
in the Post Office profits.

I just... I mean, are they just
incompetent Alan or just evil? Yeah.

Well, you know, it comes
the same thing in the end.

What? Please.

Definitely.

The Post Office
describes itself on its own

website as the nation's
most trusted brand.

Well, as far as these
claimants are concerned,

this might be thought to
be wholly wishful thinking.

The Post Office witnesses
give me the impression

that they simply cannot allow
themselves to consider the possibility

that the Post Office may be
wrong, as the consequences

are doing so, are too
significant to contemplate.

Angela Vanden Bogard did not
always give me Frank evidence.

She sought to mislead me.

Her judgment also seemed to be
uniquely exercised to paint the Post Office

in the most favorable light
possible, regardless of the facts.

Mr. Bates seemed to me to
offer his evidence honestly, and...

Just proved himself
to be... Unreasonable.

Stubborn and considerable
irritant to the Post Office.

He's got you to a T?

Yeah, and the Post Office too.

Oppressive on fair, excessive secrecy, and,
well, 180,000 other words, just the same.

Sorry.

We've got to get back into court now.

Why?

Somebody's come on.

Hold on, love.

I just saw this five minutes ago.

It's an application for
me to recuse myself as

being the managing
judge in these proceedings.

Mr. Wentworth, that you care to elaborate.

The Post Office has asked
the judge to sack himself

on the grounds that he's clearly
biased against the Post Office.

Amazing.

It's just the best day ever.

It's like a gift from heaven.

Proof their desperate.

Absolutely.

I mean, well, Alan, the most
catastrophic mistake you can make

is to make unfounded allegations
of bias against the judge.

I mean, you just... I've
never even... The idiot.

I bet it wasn't the lawyers
who decided to do this.

I bet it came from the
Post Office boardroom.

Oh, well, to be a fan of all, eh?

Well, we're winning.

Well, yes, but... Oh.

I should have known there
was a butt coming over the hill.

Well, the trial stops now.

It'll be weeks, months
of arguments to follow.

On whether we need a new judge.

It's a delay the Post Office
can afford, but we can't.

That's why they're doing this.

They're doing this to
make us run out of money.

Alan, we have run out of money.

No.

No, no.

We can't stop now.

No one's talking about stopping not at all.

But it is time to start
negotiating a settlement.

I think you're forgetting, ah?

I've negotiated with this mob before.

And people have died.

Well, people are still dying.

You know this, alright,
but nobody else does.

There's millions of people out
there who've never heard of us.

We don't know about the
suicides and the ruined lives.

God knows how many victims who
are still too scared to come forward.

Ha.

I haven't spent 20 years battling
these bastards to pack up now

and give the Post Office license to
start running a mock and destroying lives.

Again.

Well, well, I've shut it off.

We have to win.

Alan, we just did.

This is what winning looks like.

You're talking as though this
is a defeat and it's really not.

This is just what happens towards
the end of any litigation week.

We get around the table
and if we don't, and we lose in

that arena, we lose everything
we've achieved so far.

And the clock sets back to zero.

So it's about knowing when
to stop and when to negotiate.

So, that's it. Give up now.

No, no.

We settle.

It's a good thing.

This is Venice.

All of Venice?

Yes.

Ned Foster, Daily Mail. Would you
like to say anything to the Postmasters

who've been through
such a long legal battle?

No. I really find this unacceptable.

Would you like to apologize to me?

Will you just go away?

So you won't apologize.

Please go away.

Well, can I confirm them, Mrs.

Venice? You're saying
you will not apologize to the

Postmasters after everything
that they've been through.

After an epic legal battle during
which the Post Office tried and failed to

remove the judge, the subpostmasters
have won on almost every count.

Their victory comes with a compensation
package worth 58 million pounds.

Well, you took them on and you won.

And I cannot overstate enough
quite the scale of this achievement.

It is more than we could have
ever dreamed of from the beginning.

It is an absolutely astonishing victory.

In my professional career, I have
never seen anything quite like this.

Having said that, I do need to
make you aware that inevitably,

there are legal fees and
court costs and our obligations

to our funders that
will eat into that total.

So the amount that will be left after
that to divide amongst yourselves as

compensation will be in the
region of 12 million pounds.

Wait, 12 million between 555?

That's what 20, 20
grand each? On average.

Yes.

20,000 pounds.

Don't want to touch the
sides of what we've lost.

Listen, I understand, but
what you must remember

is that today's settlement
opens a lot of doors.

So that people with
convictions can now use these

judgments to help with their
appeals going forward forever.

So what this also means is that those
postmasters who've been too scared to

come forward up to now will
be able to do so without fear.

Friends, we did talk
this over and over again.

And we knew we might not see a penny,
but we decided we voted to go ahead.

They got paid right.

Excuse me, excuse me.

Excuse me.

I've been in court every
single day, and I saw us

with my own eyes winning
the most massive victory.

And that's all down to
Allen and James and Patrick.

And their hard work.

So could you just all stop it?

I've never been to end, is it?

I wouldn't mind, but
our legal team worked

for free a lot of the
time, and none of them.

Not even the funders took
anything like the fees they would do.

Well, anyway, it's not about money, is it?

Well, it is, partly.

Mostly.

You know what I
mean? You won, Allen.

You set out to prove horizon
is faulty, and you did it.

You won.

But everyone is still skinned.

Allen.

Lee, yeah.

I want to, but not attacking you, Allen.

Everyone can see you did your best.

Thank you.

Me, though.

Don't listen to the angry
people, but upset, tired.

I know.

It's all right.

Just remember, we'd be
nowhere without you, Mr Bates.

You're a legend.

There from the beginning,
and you never wavered, never.

Not for all those long years.

Just been a tower of
strength and new ideas.

Oh, well, I'm embarrassing you.

Hey, listen.

Joe.

All this evidence, the
litigation has dug up.

All the secrets coming out of the woodwork.

Well, we got to the truth.

It belongs to us now.

Use it, prove your innocence,
go to the court of appeal,

and show the world what a
miscarriage of justice really looks like.

All right, Evan.

But what are you going to do?

Oh, there's a pint of beer
in Wales with my name on it.

I think people are bitter.

They're angry.

And I guess I do.

I'm bitter.

I'm angry.

And I care about them only.

Of course I do.

I care about the home we should
have had, the life we could have had.

But I care about justice too.

And you care about you, so
don't you dare go blaming yourself.

I don't.

You have absolutely
nothing to blame yourself for.

And that's why I don't blame myself.

Come on, let's get home.

I've never seen the point
of getting angry, Suzanne.

I treat you like a job.

Something I lift off the
shelf and then put back after.

Funnily enough, I don't
really remember that part.

They're putting it back on the shelf part.

More than seven days a
week, 365 days a year apart.

And also Alan, jobs are things
that people have paid to do.

I guess something went a bit wrong there.

Not actually giving up at all of you.

Well, there's the small matter of every
one of the 555 getting their money back.

And then there's the
small matter of the right

people holding up their
hands to take the blame.

All the vendors.

The British government.

Why?

Well, because the government
is the one and only owner of the

good ship post office, which
doesn't have a penny in its coffers,

owing to the fact it's
spent it all fighting us.

All of which means that
in the end, a Majesty's

government is going to
have to hold up its hands,

except responsibility for this fiasco,
and pay us the compensation we deserve.

When people say the
government, they really

mean taxpayer, but
nobody would begrudge you.

We established the truth
in the court of law, James.

And now, I'm focusing on the 555
who need their lives putting that together.

You don't give up, do you?
You're awkward, son.

Well, someone's got to be.

Alan, cast your mind back, if
you will, to the summer of 2013.

Bob was doing his review.

And you were fighting
me every inch of the way.

I was right, though.

And at the same time, the post
office in secret, and at the highest level,

were commissioning
independent legal advice.

This lawyer's report
establishes beyond doubt that the

post office lied to and were
in contempt of Parliament.

You were right.

It also improves that
all the time we were

waiting through treatment
trying to investigate.

Senior post office executives
were shredding documents and

failing to disclose that they
knew they were unsafe convictions.

Did Paul and her?

It's not possible to
say with any certainty.

I want to say that I'm deeply sorry for
those subpostmasters who have suffered.

I have read many of their
stories, and they are harrowing.

They are with me every day.

I was and remain deeply
disturbed by what has come to light.

It is contrary to what I
believe through my time

as CEO of post office
between 2012 and 2019.

I wish to state for
the record that I do

not accept any personal
criminal misconduct.

This judgment concerns 42 men and women
who were all prosecuted by their employer.

And convicted of crimes of dishonesty.

Josephine Hamilton pleaded guilty
to 14 counts of false accounting.

There was no examination of
the data for bugs, errors or defects.

There was no proof of an actual loss as
opposed to an horizon generated shortage.

Even more alarming
post office limits its own

investigator had reported
there was no evidence of theft.

We conclude Mrs Hamilton's prosecution
was unfair and an affront to justice.

We allow her appeal.

We quash her convictions.

Not withstanding his guilty plea,
nor Thomas' conviction is unsafe.

We allow his appeal.

His prosecution was unfair
and an affront to justice.

In the case of Susan
Radkin, we allow her appeal.

Her conviction is unsafe.

Very sadly, three of the applicants,
Julian Wilson, Peter Holmes and

Dawn O'Connell have not lived to
see the outcome of their appeals.

She's the first office
court to go to prison.

No, no, no.

I've been touched here.

I know what it's like.

It doesn't do any good.

Fit them in their pockets.

Take their money off them.

It's the only rule I'm the gentleman.

Good lad, when you go.

You should have come
down for these appeals.

It's about these.

It's true.

There she is.

Oh, I don't know.

We've waited so long for this day.

Some of us didn't make it.

People have died, you know?

And all we ever wanted was for the truth
to come out and for someone to listen.

It didn't have to be like this.

All these good people,
their lives in ruins.

When you look at us,
do we let like criminals?

Bob!

Thank you, I've been running quite far.

Not just unfair, but look at this.

And a front to justice.

That's like twice as bad.

No, that's 100 times as bad.

You lambs to the slope and they leave.

Give it to us.

Hey you.

You make me cry about this.

First of all, let's go.

Judge have been Hamilton and others.

First is the first office.

Look at that.

That's what we did.

Look what you did.

Good.

Good.

Good.

Good.

Good.

Good.

Good job.

Good job.

It's jaw-droppingly significant.

The judges have not
only ruled that Joe and the

others were wrongfully
convicted, but even worse.

But the post office decision to
prosecute them was so wrong

that it amounts to an affront
to the conscience of the court.

This has to be the widest miscarriage
of justice in British legal history.

Good job.

Good job.

Good job.

Good job.

I know what you're thinking.

Good job.

Well, it's not over, is it?

I hope that we just allow
ourselves to enjoy it.

Okay.

Good job.

Allen.

Just one email.

Minister of Postal Affairs.

Legal costs for our 555 claimants
total now due 46,843,853 pounds.

Plus another month's interest at 8%.

Well, it's up.

On what planet is the government
going to pay our legal costs?

They'll have to.

They own the post office.

So shall I hold? The only one.

The only one.

Awkward enough to sit at his
computer making trouble for 20 years.

20 years so far.

Just think of it as a
hobby that got out of hand.
