Jo Hamilton, who was wrongly accused of stealing £ 36,000 from the Post office branch, which she ran in South Warnborough, was portrayed by actress Monica Dolan in the drama.

The award -winning actor was nominated for the leading actress at the award ceremony, but lost to Marisa Abela, who clutched the role of her achievement in industry about young financial graduates after the 2008 recession.

Jo Hamilton is guilty of incorrect bookkeeping not to go to prison and was prosecuted in 2006.

Her conviction was canceled in 2021 when it was found that it had become the victim of the Post horizon scandal, in which more than 700 subpost masters were prosecuted due to an incorrect accounting system.

Her story was part of the focus for the four-part ITV drama, in which Toby Jones also played as Alan Bates and Lia Williams as Paula Vennells.

Despite the victory, the creators of the show, including actor Toby Jones, writer Gwyneth Hughes and producer Patrick Spencer, said that the fight was not over yet.

They added that they hope that victory will help to keep the scandal in the public's head while the subpost masters are waiting for compensation.
