Lucy Letby hospital bosses broke their silence under chandeliers in Liverpool Town Hall .

They were not asked to give evidence at the criminal trials so they are revealing new information.

Many in the room would prefer not to hear Letby 's name uttered again - but more than a year after her trial ended, questions remain.

Hearing directly from the bosses for the first time shone a light on what the atmosphere was like at the Countess of Chester Hospital during that period.

At times the questioning became very personal as the managers were asked about the tone they’d set.

The executives were also pressed on their lack of support for consultants who were trying to make their suspicions known - and accepted they hadn't been given protection as NHS whistleblowers.
