People have been sharing the real-life scandals that TV drama should tackle next and there was only one winner
It was only when ITV broadcast a drama about the Post Office scandal that the government finally got around to doing something about it, as you’ll well know by now.
And we certainly can’t put it any better than Private Eye editor Ian Hislop does here.

It’s ITV’s Golden Balls from back in 2008, as if you didn’t know. Bring it back now, ITV!
