Winners and Losers

Documentary series. In recent years, keeping Britain's Post Offices open has been costing millions of pounds that the government is no longer prepared to spend.

For nearly 400 years, the Post Office has been at the heart of our high streets, the centre of village life. But in recent years, keeping the doors of Britain's more than 11 thousand Post Offices open has been costing the taxpayer millions, money the government has said it is no longer prepared to spend. Chief executive Paula Vennells wants to reinvent the business for the 21st century and make it stand on its own two feet. But our feelings about our local Post Offices run deep - does progress come at too high a price?
