 And again, I think you are looking through the wrong end of the telescope. 
  
 Shame is what a person experiences when they are humiliated by the world 
 - even if that humiliation is undeserved, as I believe Andrew's probably 
 is.  Thus, the postmasters convicted of theft from the post office felt 
 shame and public humiliation even though they knew they had done nothing 
 wrong. 
  
 In the rather disgraceful Panorama programme last night, only one good 
 friend of Andrew's, Lady Victoria Hervey, courageously spoke up for him 
 in an interview. A series of other well known faces including the awful 
 Dame Margaret Hodge told us that Andrew was in their opinion rude, vain, 
 extravagant, stupid, fully deserving of his fate. Panorama was a 
 hatchet-job to reassure us that Andrew deserves his humiliation and that 
 in the whole world he only has one friend, the supposedly gullible Lady 
 Victoria.
