Mr Bates vs the Post Office

Dirty Harry said:
Have you watched ‘Mr Bates v The Post Office, The Real Story’ ? I watched it and could find nothing that was at odds with the script of the TV drama itself, in fact, they’ve literally used their exact words.

I find it difficult to believe they’d allow something of that nature to pass by without fact checking even with the caveat at the beginning of the programme where it mentions ‘some scenes imagined’ or words to that effect.

My reply was to another poster who intimated it was scripted acting. I was saying the hard faced cow had approached the widow without anyone's knowledge. She then organised a payment and an NDA again without Bates' knowledge

Almost as good as the Bet365 model, whose boss Denise Coates "earned" £221 million last financial year to March 2023. That takes her salary to £1 billion over the last 4 years.

And you can bet - sure as shit- that she pays little or no tax on that
Any info on where her company is registered?

Reality is more nuanced than tv drama shows.

Do you agree the cow visited the house ? If so do you agree she broke the agreement with Bennett and then sent the boys round with a compensation offer and an NDA
If the answer is yes, do you think it more likely the smarmy woman was as portrayed on TV or did she go in all nasty ?

More Zeitgeist Dramas clearly needed. Never occurred to me people were unaware of this ongoing debacle.

The one about The Yorkshire Ripper a few weeks ago was eye opening as well. Police ignoring information on a regular basis.

I think it was called " The Long Call"
