The story of how a national institution went rogue.
The Great Post Office Cover Up reveals for the first time the full story behind the largest miscarriage of justice the nation has ever seen. Building on The Great Post Office Scandal, freelance journalist and broadcaster, Nick Wallis, uses the fresh evidence uncovered by the Inquiry and Nick's own journalism to chronicle the legal obstruction and embedded cultural attitudes that led one of the nation's most respected institutions to become a byword for corporate callousness and incompetence. Along the way, he recounts hitherto untold stories of the human cost of their actions.
The scandal sparked national outrage in 2024 when the ITV drama, Mr Bates vs The Post Office was broadcast, but we now know that was not the full story. Now with the inquiry over, The Great Post Office Cover Up stands as the definitive account of one of the darkest episodes of modern British history.
