Beer tells #Vennells that she lied to parliament when she informed that at every occasion, the Post Office had successfully prosecuted postmasters for shortfalls. He informs her that there were at least three that she knew about.
She starts crying.
Not because of the injustuce the postmasters faced but because she knows she has committed perjury and is going to go to jail.

An outpouring of sorrow and volcanic rage en masse on Twitter/X as people watch #MrBatesVsThePostOffice on STV/ITV, a 4 part drama showcasing the true story of one of largest miscarriages of justice in British history. It is moving, compelling viewing.
The #PostOfficeScandal has been going for over 20 years; 736 subpostmasters were prosecuted between 2000 - 2014. At least 60 subpostmasters have died without seeing justice or compensation.
