Wonder if they have gone to the same depots as in 2004? Looked like the same manager in the trailer!!!

There isn't a link for the trailer just keep on the lookout on C4, you'll see it in the evening at some point. Makes me laugh though - the programme has got an inaccurate title already calling it 'Post Office Undercover'. :hmmmm

How can any self-respecting postie/mail centre worker be expected to take interest in a programme when its title is inaccurate when you read the text in the trailer! :d'oh!

I will watch it but the trouble is how it is perceived by the general public as they only see so far into the program and ignore the rest. The last program made us all look stupid and somehow the postie got the blame. :arrrghhh

Do you remember the bit about stolen Barclay cards from channel four showing an alleged postman selling cards in a pub. Suddenly we are all branded as thieves by Joe public even after it was proved that Barclays were it fact not using RM at all :mad but a private courier firm instead. :no no

I just hope we come across as the hard working people that we are.

We are the only ones who will look bad, not the halfwits running this job into the ground.
The hardworking honest postmen and postwomen will be tarred with the lazy,skiving, theiving brush.
