THATCHER VS THE MINERS: THE BATTLE FOR BRITAIN
Directed by Brendan Hughes
On the 5th of March 1985, a crowd gathered in a South Yorkshire pit village to watch a sight none of them had seen in a year. The villagers, many of them in tears, cheered and clapped as the men of Grimethorpe Colliery marched back to work accompanied by the village’s world-famous brass band.
