Got home latish & decided to watch a bit of Sky News. This featured much coverage of on-going events concerning the Post Office Scandal in the UK, which I referenced here back in January in relation to the excellent series Mr Bates vs The Post Office, which was the best thing we saw on the telly back in the land of my birth last December.
Despite the obviously urgent need to do something to resolve the suffering of those sub-postmasters caught up in the terrible events, it turns out that many victims are still seeking compensation and a significant number either took their own lives or came desperately close. This makes for difficult viewing, part of the difficulty being trying to imagine the extremes of stress that must have been involved.
All very depressing. But, then, so much of the news is these days.
