In the BBC documentary Surviving the Post Office, actor Will Mellor embarks on a journey across England to meet the real-life sub-postmasters who were wrongfully accused of theft. These individuals lost their savings and livelihoods due to a scandal that has shaken the country.
Mellor, who appeared in the TV drama Mr. Bates vs. The Post Office which is based on the story, discovers how the victims are attempting to rebuild their lives and take back control. For some, facing the past is challenging, while others find it liberating.
The documentary looks at the impact of the scandal and how it has affected the lives of those involved.
Surviving the Post Office airs on Monday, July 22, at 8:30 p.m. on BBC One.
