There is a series on BBC radio 4

The Great Post Office Trial
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000jfyv

Made me cross just listening to what some people had to go through
- people being smashed into submission on appeal
- forced to pay PO legal costs of cost of £300,000
- going bankrupt
- going to jail

Just awful
