Former Post Office boss Paula Vennells, who was wrongfully convicted in the Horizon fiasco, has pleaded guilty. Ms Vennells expressed regret today for the 'devastation' that had resulted in staff being falsely accused of theft when her company routinely denied there were problems with her systems. It comes as demand for her to return the opulence of justice soared after an ITV drama - Mr Bates vs. The Post Office - thrust the widespread miscarriage of justice back into the spotlight. Jo Hamilton, a former subpoena, said she was 'glad' that the ex-Post Office had given her her CBE back, adding, 'It's apprehension that it took just a million people to cripple her conscience.' According to Ms Vennells, she may have to fork over her millions in compensation.

Paula Vennells, the former Post Office manager, has announced that she would return her CBE with immediate effect following the downfall of the Horizon IT scandal, which resulted in the unlawful prosecution of hundreds of sub-postmasters. Ms Vennells said she was 'fully sorry' for the 'devastation' that had resulted in mistrust by her employer when her company routinely denied there were problems with her systems. "I've listened and I can confirm that I have returned my CBE with immediate effect," she said.

In this week's hit ITV drama Mr Bates vs. The brutal torture of hundreds of innocent sub-postmasters, wrongfully accused of stealing, false accounting, and fraud, while dragged through the courts was brought to life. It traces the sad tale of Britain's biggest ever miscarriage of justice, which resulted in the arrest of more than 700 innocent people, two63 of whom were jailed, as well as hundreds more in bankruptcy and financial ruin. At least four people have committed suicide. Victims were compelled to explain how Horizon, rather than dishonest sub-postmasters, was to blame for cash going missing from Post Office tills, according to the company's senior staff. The drama forensically examines how the Post Office managed to stop the truth from getting out, giving misleading information to Parliament, the public, and at least one High Court judge involved in the process.

Mr Bates vs. The Post Office is a show that will be all too real for some. The new ITV series chronicles the tale of a mass miscarriage of justice that engulfed hundreds of innocent Post Office workers as a result of a flawed IT system and subsequent cover-up. More than 700 sub-postmasters and sub-postmistresses were charged by the Post Office between 1999 and 2015 based on inaccurate information from the Horizon system. After falling victim to the faults, former postmaster Alan Bates (top left, as depicted by Toby Jones) led and secured a court contest. His victory opened the way for the overturn of hundreds of criminal charges. Several other innocent former Post Office workers have been wrongfully dismissed, including Jo Hamilton (top right, portrayed by Monica Dolan), Lee and Lisa Castleton (bottom left), and Noel Thomas (bottom right, portrayed by Ifan Huw Dafydd) and Noel Thomas (bottom right, played by Ifan Huw Dafydd). Former Post Office CEO Paul Vennells (top, center, portrayed by Lia Williams) and the company's former director Angela van den Bogerd (bottom, center, portrayed by Katherine Kelly) are also depicted.

The Post Office falsely accused 3,500 subpostmasters of theft, mistrust, and false reporting from 2000 to 2015. Over 700 people were charged. Any of them went to jail. Many people have lost their homes and life savings as a result of the Post Office's announcement that they were missing. According to a Daily Mail investigation, the scandal was traced to four suicides, and 60 victims died before they found any justice at all. They'd done nothing wrong, but the Post Office's own insecure Horizon computer platform, which mistakenly reported financial irregularities, was to blame. Mr Bates Vs. The Post Office, a recent ITV drama starring Toby Jones, Monica Dolan, and Katherine Kelly, lays out the full horror of this tale and honors the brave subpostmasters who stood up for themselves and fought to expose the shocking behavior of Post Office bosses who continued to pursue them despite warnings that Horizon was to blame.

The Long Shadow on ITV is coming to an end as it details the sequence of missed opportunities in catching the Yorkshire Ripper as police were delayed by a hoax tape. Despite being interviewed multiple times by West Yorkshire Police, the real ripper, Peter Sutcliffe, was able to commit 13 murders and more non-fatal attacks in less than five years. In the TV drama, Sutcliffe's victims, survivors, and investigators are all depicted, rather than glorifying the serial killer. Scroll down to see real-life photos of some of the series's leading figures.

On Monday, the Long Shadow viewers praised the ITV drama for 'giving a voice' to the victims of Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe. In South Yorkshire in the late 1970s and early 1980s, the latest episode saw yet more lives devastated by the mad man's murder spree. Sutcliffe killed 13 people and attempted to murder seven more before his eventual capture in 1981.

The Long Shadow, a recent tale about the Yorkshire Ripper, is enthralling Kathryn Flett. Its ability to bring the victims' spotlight and investigate their lives makes it stand out. This week, the 2003 World Cup-winning England rugby team will reunite to educate prison prisoners, something else worth watching this week. Strictly Come Dancing isn't to be missed either in the early stages.

Exceptional: Peter Sutcliffe of Yorkshire may have been arrested sooner if the first detective to link the investigation to a serial murderer had lead to it for longer, according to a senior judge. Peter Sutcliffe had killed 13 people and attempted to murder seven more during his deadly spree between 1975 and 1980. However, Honour Judge Barrington Black, who spent his career as a Supreme Justice of Gibraltar before retiring at the age of 82, believes Sutcliffe may have been arrested earlier if a brilliant detective who knew well had been put in charge of what became a bungled probe.

JAN MOIR: Just when you think Meghan and Harry cannot possibly sink to new depths, they plunge 20,000 fathoms into the sludge. Just as I think I'm done with these two dopes, I pretending to be indifferent to any more of their ideas and ghastly, hollowed-out souls, they go and beat all negative expectations. Documents detailing the travel plans for a visit by the couple to a primary school in New York in September 2021 have surfaced this week.

Wilma McCann, the son of the Yorkshire Ripper's first victim, described how he planned revenge on the depraved serial killer before speaking with Desmond Tutu and learning the power of forgiveness. Richard McCann said he had hated evil Peter Sutcliffe until he eventually learned to let go.

The Long Shadow, ITV's latest drama focusing on Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe, was slammed by viewers after its first episode aired on Monday. Fans took to Twitter to protest the show's poor sound and lighting, with others claiming they were compelled to watch it with subtitles. Toby Jones, Daniel Mays, and Katherine Kelly appear in this film, which takes a deep dive into Sutcliffe's violent crimes in Yorkshire in the Seventies and Eighties, as well as the lives of the women he had fought.

The Long Shadow, the much-anticipated ITV drama, airs on September 25, chronicling Peter Sutcliffe's five-year hunt. The show has not been without controversy, with Sutcliffe's first survivor praising ITV for removing the word 'Yorkshire Ripper' from the description after saying that traumatizes victims' families. Sutcliffe was the monster who terrorized West Yorkshire until 1981, murdering 13 people over the course of five years before being arrested by police. To name a few, the series stars a star-studded ensemble cast starring revered British actors David Morrisey, Toby Jones, and Katherine Kelly. The Long Shadow has been shot in Leeds, Wortley, Dewsbury, and York, among other locations.

Wilma McCann, 28, and Emily Jackson, 42, were among Peter Sutcliffe's first two victims, the Yorkshire Ripper. In the ITV drama The Long Shadow, which is airing across seven episodes, their tragic final days are re-told. Wilma is portrayed by Gemma Laurie, whilst Katherine Kelly depicts Emily. In late 1975 and early 1976, the women were murdered in Leeds three months apart. Sutcliffe is set to murder 11 more people as well as a number of others.

A new ITV drama, which will air in September, will chronicle Peter Sutcliffe's journey as the police hunt unfolds. Sutcliffe, a serial killer who lived in Yorkshire in the Seventies and Eighties, will explore the women she had assaulted in the Long Shadow. Sutcliffe murdered 13 people and attempted to murder seven more before his capture in 1981, when he was sentenced to twenty consecutive life imprisonment sentences at HMP Frankland. Sutcliffe died at University Hospital of North Durham in November 2020 after refusing medical attention for COVID-19 while suffering with other underlying health conditions such as obesity and diabetes. The crime drama, which is made up of seven episodes, will air on ITV1 on Monday, September 25th.

A woman who was a third-year fine art student days from her 21st birthday shares her close encounter with the convicted killer as the ITV drama recreates the terror inflicted by Peter Sutcliffe. Mo Lea was a student at Leeds Polytechnic University and just two days from her 21st birthday when Sutcliffe attempted to murder her in October 1980. It had been more than five years since his first known murder in 1975, and West Yorkshire Police were apparently at the height of the country's biggest manhunt.

The Long Shadow tells the victims' stories rather than focusing on murderer Peter Sutcliffe, who murdered 13 women in Yorkshire and left seven others dead between 1975 and 1980. Jill Halfpenny, Katherine Kelly, and Daniel Mays of Line Of Duty are among the featured former Eastenders on ITV1.

Peter Sutcliffe's first victim's son has praised ITV for removing 'Yorkshire Ripper' from a new drama. Richard McCann (left), a child of Sutcliffe (inset) when he was five years old, begged on the Long Shadow (right) designers to delete the serial killer's moniker. The name only served to 'traumatize' families of victims,' according to Sutcliffe, because it represented the exact ways used by Sutcliffe to murder and injure them. Following criticism from families of those killed by the killer, screenwriter George Kay decided to rename the writer.
