Viewers were united in horror on Monday night when episode two of ITV drama Anne covered the fact that there had been 42 ambulances outside the stadium that were unable to reach the Hillsborough victims.
‘Why wouldn’t they let the ambulances through????’ asked one social media user, while another wrote: ‘Bit of an emotional wreck again tonight after watching episode 2 of #Anne on #ITV. Horrified to discover that the ambulances were there but not allowed in! Unbelievable and disgraceful.’Another commented: ‘Forty two ambulances were told to wait outside the ground….FORTY TWO…this disaster should never have happened and could have been prevented…I am so glad they kept fighting for justice.
‘Imagine being one of the 42 ambulance drivers sitting outside the ground, not allowed by the police to do what you’ve been trained for,’ one viewer wrote. ‘Then watching the footage afterwards of ordinary fans carrying bodies on advertising hoardings. You’d never get over it, the guilt.’The real Anne Williams in 2012, who died the following year from cancer
Another asked: ‘How was Anne NOT informed there were 42 ambulances outside the grounds – this is so long after Kevin’s death.’
