0:04:18 > 0:04:19- She left at 16...
0:04:19 > 0:04:23- ..and she's bloody determined - that I'm going to college.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- Deiniol is Dad's big brother.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- He works in the winding room - and he earns more than Dad.
0:04:32 > 0:04:33- Eirlys is his wife.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52- Ian MacGregor, the chairman - of the National Coal Board...
0:04:52 > 0:04:56- ..claimed that support for the union - was weakening among miners.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58- That's a lie!
0:04:58 > 0:04:59- That's a lie!- - We know. Don't shout.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02- Right. I'm off.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07- It appears that South Wales miners - are more united.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10- Wil Price, - chairman of Aberelli NUM Lodge...
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- ..is your support - for Scargill solid?

0:05:17 > 0:05:21- ..to see their work insulted by - people who hate the working class.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22- Amen!
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- Amen!- - He's a good speaker.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28- The Coal Board broke an agreement - to consult with the union.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32- The NUM won't hold - a national strike ballot.
0:05:32 > 0:05:33- Is that a problem for you?
0:05:33 > 0:05:34- Is that a problem for you?- - Answer that one!
0:05:34 > 0:05:39- We don't need a ballot to prove - we'll do whatever it takes...
0:05:39 > 0:05:42- ..to save our livelihood - and the honour of the Valleys.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44- Wil Price, thank you.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46- Wil Price, thank you.- - Thank you.
0:05:49 > 0:05:50- It makes no sense.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- They're afraid - we'll vote against them.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56- Who'd do that? We're unanimous.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00- You don't speak - to the same men as me.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04- If we stick together, we'll be fine.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13- Hiya!
0:06:13 > 0:06:14- Hiya!- - Hiya.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17- You didn't have - to bake a cake, Eirlys.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- I've got doilies somewhere.
0:06:20 > 0:06:21- I've got doilies somewhere.- - There's no need.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25- And mugs would be good enough - for this lot, Eirlys.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28- Are you alright?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30- Are you alright?- - Yes. I just want to do my bit.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32- Everyone's feeling the strain.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37- You get the women settled - and I'll do this.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42- Go on.
0:06:44 > 0:06:45- What did we do last time?
0:06:45 > 0:06:48- What did we do last time?- - Things are more serious this time.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- The traditional things - won't be enough.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52- What's wrong with those?
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- What's wrong with those?- - What? Knit anti-Thatcher cardigans?
0:06:56 > 0:07:00- Bake a pie to poison the Coal Board? - Glenda, get a grip.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03- You're lucky. - You've got money coming in.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07- I'm sick of baked beans - but we're shitting like champions!
0:07:07 > 0:07:09- At least it's slimming.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- What would you know?! - You're fatter than usual.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17- I'm willing to go without food.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25- I propose we form a Women Against - Pit Closures committee.
0:07:25 > 0:07:26- Seconded.
0:07:26 > 0:07:27- Seconded.- - I'll chair it.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- That's not up to you. - We have to nominate someone.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33- Who cares who chairs it?
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- All that's important - is we help the men.
0:07:36 > 0:07:37- I nominate Gwen.
0:07:38 > 0:07:39- Who'll second me?
0:07:46 > 0:07:48- I've got two bits of news.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50- Don't say you're pregnant!
0:07:50 > 0:07:52- Don't say you're pregnant!- - I'll ignore that.
0:07:53 > 0:07:54- First, I am chair...
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- ..of the Aberelli Women Against - Pit Closures committee.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00- That's a mouthful!
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Did nobody else want the job?
0:08:03 > 0:08:04- Did nobody else want the job?- - Oi!
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- Speaking of jobs, I've got one.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12- Don't look so surprised.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19- Shouldn't we have discussed it?
0:08:21 > 0:08:22- It came out of the blue.
0:08:23 > 0:08:24- It was only offered to me today.
0:08:27 > 0:08:28- What is this job?
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- Walt asked me to do his books.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- I've always been good with numbers.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40- I can work any time, - and strike pay won't keep us...
0:08:40 > 0:08:42- There's no need to go out to work.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44- We'll be back down there soon.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- Carys is going to college this year. - We need every penny.
0:08:49 > 0:08:50- Why?
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- Why go to him?
0:08:55 > 0:08:59- Nobody knows how long - this strike will go on, Dai.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01- It could come in handy.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04- He's after you again, - but he's paying this time.
0:09:05 > 0:09:06- What are you trying to say?
0:09:06 > 0:09:07- What are you trying to say?- - Stop it!
0:09:08 > 0:09:10- Please!
0:09:11 > 0:09:12- I can't work here.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20- Dad and Mam never argue.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22- Well, hardly ever.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26- But when they do, run for cover.
0:09:51 > 0:09:52- Are you coming?
0:09:52 > 0:09:54- Are you coming?- - Mam's having a bad day. Sorry.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56- Are you OK?
0:09:56 > 0:09:57- Who's there?
0:09:57 > 0:09:58- Who's there?- - Nobody.
0:09:58 > 0:09:59- Oh, thanks!
0:10:00 > 0:10:02- Get back to those books then!
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- She won't settle - unless I'm swotting.
0:10:05 > 0:10:06- Ta-ta.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26- This is the Krem, aka the Kremlin.
0:10:28 > 0:10:29- The Miners' Institute.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32- They run the strike from here.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36- Only men - are allowed to be members here.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42- There he is - - the big man of the village.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45- The kingpin of the Krem.
0:10:46 > 0:10:47- Now, he's famous.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51- Somehow, he looks different - after being on the telly.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56- He's old, but he's a bit - of a dreamboat really.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13- Can I use a small room for swotting?
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- Can I use a small room for swotting?- - No. Members only.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17- And no women in the bar.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20- And no women in the bar.- - Haydn, behave yourself!
0:11:24 > 0:11:26- You're Dai's daughter, aren't you?
0:11:26 > 0:11:27- You're Dai's daughter, aren't you?- - Yes.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29- How's your mother?

0:11:36 > 0:11:39- Can I work here? - I've got nowhere else to go.
0:11:43 > 0:11:44- Haydn, give me the keys.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49- We saw you on the box.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51- You were good.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56- Uncle Deiniol - wants you to hold a ballot.
0:11:56 > 0:11:57- Does he?
0:11:58 > 0:12:00- Yes, but Dad - doesn't see the problem.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02- I rely a lot on your father.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06- He's the salt of the earth.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10- What do you think of the strike?
0:12:10 > 0:12:11- What do you think of the strike?- - Me?
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- Well, I don't like Scargill...
0:12:17 > 0:12:19- ..but Thatcher's worse.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21- That's true enough.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27- Mam's formed a committee - for the women.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29- I hope you join her.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33- Practical politics for you.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37- You're going to London, aren't you?
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- You're going to London, aren't you?- - If I get an A and two Bs.
0:12:40 > 0:12:41- Lucky you.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45- You have everything ahead of you.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54- Hand the keys back - when you've finished.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01- Bloomin' heck! - Wil Price flirted with me!
0:13:02 > 0:13:03- Wait until I phone Eleri!
0:13:04 > 0:13:06- She'll go nuts - because she missed this.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30- SCRAPING
0:13:39 > 0:13:41- You were late home last night.
0:13:43 > 0:13:44- Where were you?
0:13:45 > 0:13:49- Wil Price said I could use a room - at the Krem for swotting.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52- Be careful.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58- Where's Mam?
0:14:03 > 0:14:05- I should be making tea for you.
0:14:05 > 0:14:06- I should be making tea for you.- - Treat! Walnut Whip?
0:14:07 > 0:14:09- My favourite! You remembered.
0:14:09 > 0:14:10- My favourite! You remembered.- - Yes.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12- I haven't had one for years.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15- What did Dai say about the job?
0:14:16 > 0:14:17- I can imagine!
0:14:18 > 0:14:20- "Why would you work for that freak?"
0:14:20 > 0:14:22- Not at all.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24- But he wasn't happy?
0:14:25 > 0:14:30- When an old friend does the family - a favour, Dai should be grateful.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32- I know I am.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36- It feels like we're on holiday.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38- It feels like we're on holiday.- - Minus the holiday pay.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40- I thought you had benefits.
0:14:40 > 0:14:44- No, they refused, - because it's an illegal strike.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47- We're left with just handouts - from the union fund.
0:14:47 > 0:14:48- It's good that Mam's working then.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- It's good that Mam's working then.- - That's just pocket money.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53- I'd prefer her to be home - and me back at work.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56- I'd never come here on holiday.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59- You've got to admit, - Aberelli's a dump.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03- This dump is good enough for me, - my parents...
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- ..and lots of better people - than you, my girl.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- Since when have you been a snob?
0:15:09 > 0:15:11- I'm proud of this place.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15- Don't let me hear you talking - like that about your home again.
0:15:17 > 0:15:18- Are you coming?
0:15:18 > 0:15:20- Are you coming?- - No. Not today.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23- We need more men on the picket line.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26- I've been thinking. - I'm not going to picket.
0:15:27 > 0:15:28- This is an illegal strike.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31- I can't do it.
0:15:40 > 0:15:41- Come on.
0:15:51 > 0:15:52- What will people say?
0:15:54 > 0:15:56- We're outsiders already.
0:15:58 > 0:15:59- What do you want me to do?
0:16:00 > 0:16:02- Carry on and betray my principles?
0:16:04 > 0:16:07- I want you to tell me - everything will be OK.
0:16:12 > 0:16:13- And I'm asking you...
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- ..to support me.
0:16:19 > 0:16:20- You're my wife.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25- And I'm asking you - not to put our family through this.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27- Eirlys...
0:16:28 > 0:16:31- ..the union's tactics - are totally wrong.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33- I have no faith in them.
0:16:35 > 0:16:36- I can't pretend...
0:16:36 > 0:16:38- I can't pretend...- - And I can't support you.
0:16:40 > 0:16:41- Sorry.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44- Eirlys?
0:16:57 > 0:17:00- Dai! There are a lot more pigs - here today.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02- Come with me to talk to them.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04- They've got to back off.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07- Go to school - and keep out of the way. Go on!
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- The miners united - will never be defeated.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19- The miners united - will never be defeated.
0:17:27 > 0:17:28- Ta-ta, Dad.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- Dad doesn't walk me to school - any more...
0:17:34 > 0:17:36- ..and we don't see much of Mam.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39- She's busy with the committee - and her new job.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41- What's for supper?
0:17:41 > 0:17:43- What's for supper?- - It's in the oven. I'm late.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18- What are you up to?
0:18:19 > 0:18:21- Me? Not a lot.
0:18:23 > 0:18:24- Hey!
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- If it isn't connected, - nobody can bother us.
0:18:30 > 0:18:31- Ler?

0:18:43 > 0:18:44- Test me again.
0:18:46 > 0:18:51- Is this a dagger which I see before - me, the handle toward my hand?

0:19:19 > 0:19:21- And she's started to pray again.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23- How's your dad?
0:19:23 > 0:19:26- How's your dad?- - Useless. He refuses to picket.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30- They didn't have a ballot, - so he says it's undemocratic.
0:19:30 > 0:19:35- He's got a point, but Dad says - everyone must stay out anyway...
0:19:35 > 0:19:37- ..or Thatcher will win.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42- Car, he's threatening - to go back to work.
0:19:45 > 0:19:46- Bloody hell.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51- Don't tell anyone. - I couldn't stand it if people knew.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55- I promise not to say anything.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59- I don't want to go home.
0:20:03 > 0:20:04- Right.

0:20:21 > 0:20:22- Here's my favourite god-daughter.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24- Here's my favourite god-daughter.- - I'm your only god-daughter!
0:20:25 > 0:20:27- This committee is for women, - not kids!

0:20:55 > 0:20:57- There isn't enough room - in the house.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59- I'll put it to the committee.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03- This is the biggest crisis - to hit this valley since the '30s.
0:21:04 > 0:21:05- Rules are rules.
0:21:08 > 0:21:13- And the law's the law, so what about - the Sex Discrimination Act 1975?
0:21:14 > 0:21:17- Yes - what about that, Haydn?

0:21:44 > 0:21:46- We can't fight the Tories - without you.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49- Right then. Let's get on with it.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58- We always need money, - but we need publicity too.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01- Something to stop the doubters.
0:22:01 > 0:22:02- Something to stop the doubters.- - What doubters?
0:22:03 > 0:22:06- People who doubt - the strike can succeed.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08- We need to make a big statement.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10- Something uplifting.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39- We can make - Miners Against Maggie T-shirts...
0:22:39 > 0:22:42- ..like Katharine Hamnett - in Downing Street.
0:22:42 > 0:22:43- Genius!
0:22:46 > 0:22:47- Fabulous! Right.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14- Where were you last night?
0:23:14 > 0:23:16- Is that enough for us all?
0:23:16 > 0:23:20- You haven't got a fancy woman, - so where were you?
0:23:21 > 0:23:23- The less you know, the better.
0:23:24 > 0:23:28- You promised not to do - anything dodgy with Wil Price.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30- I don't trust him.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35- Dai, I'm serious!

0:24:03 > 0:24:05- You should be doing schoolwork.- - She's helping the cause.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09- You'll change your tune - if she misses out on college.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12- Family comes before politics, - Dai Evans.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16- So why is Uncle Deiniol - going back to work then?
0:24:20 > 0:24:22- He's doing what?
0:24:24 > 0:24:25- No, Dai!
0:24:26 > 0:24:27- Dai!
0:24:34 > 0:24:36- Dai!
0:24:37 > 0:24:39- You're going back?
0:24:39 > 0:24:42- I have every right - to put my family before Scargill.

0:24:44 > 0:24:46- What the fuck's wrong with you?- - We're going to lose.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47- Not if we stick together.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49- Not if we stick together.- - You live in cloud cuckoo land.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51- They've got stockpiles of coal.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54- Thatcher's laughing at us.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56- You can't go against the union.
0:24:56 > 0:25:00- Nobody will talk to us - and we won't be able to go out.
0:25:00 > 0:25:01- Eirlys, don't!
0:25:01 > 0:25:03- Eirlys, don't!- - The only family. Scabs.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07- Deiniol, these girls' lives - won't be worth living.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10- At least - there'll be food on the table.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13- Here we go! - This all boils down to money.
0:25:13 > 0:25:18- You're willing to see Gwen and Carys - suffer for months, all for nothing.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21- If you cross that picket line...

0:25:39 > 0:25:40- ..or the union.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47- You've always thought - you were cleverer than us.
0:25:48 > 0:25:53- And now you're about to shit on - everything this family's fought for.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56- We'll all suffer.

0:31:29 > 0:31:32- # Touch it, but you can't hold it
0:31:33 > 0:31:35- # You work all your life - for that moment in time
0:31:36 > 0:31:38- # It can come or pass you by
0:31:38 > 0:31:41- # It's a push of the world - but there's always a chance #

0:35:55 > 0:35:57- Right. You sit here.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59- I'll be off. I've got things to do.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04- Don't put yourself down - all the time.

0:36:26 > 0:36:28- She can't swot all the time.
0:36:29 > 0:36:31- Please let me go to the rally.
0:36:31 > 0:36:35- It's important for the men to know - that their families support them.
0:36:35 > 0:36:39- Nothing damages morale like - knowing some people aren't 100%.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42- Go on, Mam! It'll help Dad.
0:36:42 > 0:36:43- I don't know.

0:36:57 > 0:37:02- The pickets tried to stop lorries - delivering coal to a coking plant...
0:37:02 > 0:37:04- ..and force the plant to close.
0:37:07 > 0:37:11- The leader of the NUM, - Arthur Scargill, was arrested...
0:37:11 > 0:37:13- ..along with 80 miners.
0:37:45 > 0:37:46- God help us.
0:37:49 > 0:37:53- After Orgreave, we lost the support - of a lot of people.
0:37:53 > 0:37:57- That night, we saw just how strong - our enemy really was.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08- KNOCK ON DOOR
0:38:13 > 0:38:15- Congratulations.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17- Tonight was a big success.

0:38:20 > 0:38:22- Yeah, maybe.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25- Hey. What's wrong?
0:38:25 > 0:38:26- You saw the news.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30- The police - are treating us like criminals.
0:38:30 > 0:38:31- How can we win?
0:38:33 > 0:38:34- We will win, Carys.
0:38:36 > 0:38:40- People will turn against - the government...
0:38:40 > 0:38:42- ..when they see what happened today.
0:38:43 > 0:38:44- Trust me.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17- Dad, you missed me! I was brilliant.
0:39:17 > 0:39:18- Dad, you missed me! I was brilliant.- - No, I was there.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21- Go to bed!

0:53:09 > 0:53:12- ..and who's only out for themselves.
0:53:13 > 0:53:17- You'd better think really hard - about the same thing.
0:53:20 > 0:53:21- Or what?
0:53:26 > 0:53:28- Don't push me too far, Dai...
0:53:29 > 0:53:31- ..or you'll regret it.

0:55:15 > 0:55:18- Don't let both of you - end up in the clink.
0:55:35 > 0:55:36- Dai's a fool.

0:59:15 > 0:59:18- Dad and I - are going through a rough patch.
0:59:18 > 0:59:22- You and Dad are the best things - that ever happened to me.
0:59:22 > 0:59:26- So why are you shagging Walt? - I saw you in the office last night.
0:59:26 > 0:59:31- What you saw was me persuading Walt - to change his evidence to the cops.
0:59:32 > 0:59:36- If Wil Price wouldn't help - your father, I had to find a way.
0:59:37 > 0:59:38- But sex?
0:59:38 > 0:59:40- But sex?- - That isn't what happened.
0:59:40 > 0:59:42- So what were you doing?
0:59:43 > 0:59:46- I was doing all I could to help Dad.
0:59:46 > 0:59:50- Things can look very different - from what they actually are.
0:59:56 > 0:59:58- So you haven't shagged Walt?
0:59:59 > 1:00:01- No.
1:00:03 > 1:00:07- I love your father - more than anything in the world...
1:00:08 > 1:00:11- ..apart from you, of course.
1:00:14 > 1:00:15- Oh, Mam.
1:00:17 > 1:00:19- I've made a mess of everything.
1:00:19 > 1:00:21- No, you haven't.
1:00:21 > 1:00:23- It's this strike's fault.
1:00:24 > 1:00:26- It's had a huge effect on us all.
1:00:26 > 1:00:28- Listen...
1:00:29 > 1:00:33- ..there's nothing you can do - to stop me loving you.
1:00:35 > 1:00:38- We'll sort everything out, - you'll see.
1:00:45 > 1:00:47- They've dropped the charges.
1:00:49 > 1:00:51- Walt retracted his statement.
1:00:54 > 1:00:57- I thought - you'd be happier than that.
1:01:13 > 1:01:14- Here he comes.
1:01:14 > 1:01:18- Apparently, - Walt withdrew his statement.
1:01:18 > 1:01:23- This is horrible! We're relying - on other people's leftovers.
1:01:23 > 1:01:25- We're like charity cases.
1:01:25 > 1:01:27- I don't even get to choose - what I eat.
1:01:28 > 1:01:32- If I eat another tin of beans with - sausages, I'll turn into a sausage.
1:01:33 > 1:01:36- What makes you think - that hasn't already happened?
1:01:41 > 1:01:43- Who sent a box of wool?
1:01:43 > 1:01:45- We can't eat that!
1:01:45 > 1:01:49- You can knit yourself a man, - ready for the winter.
1:01:50 > 1:01:52- Well! Very good, ladies.
1:01:52 > 1:01:54- Fair play to the troops.
1:01:55 > 1:01:58- Oh! Love Hearts for the children.
1:02:01 > 1:02:04- I'll see you on Monday - for the rally.
1:02:05 > 1:02:06- I'm relying on you.
1:02:08 > 1:02:10- I hope your speech is ready.
1:02:11 > 1:02:12- Hush!
1:02:12 > 1:02:14- Justice Park announced...
1:02:14 > 1:02:19- ..that the 3 million South Wales - NUM Fund would be sequestered.
1:02:20 > 1:02:24- This means the union - can't use its own members' money.
1:02:25 > 1:02:27- How can they do that? - It's our money.
1:02:28 > 1:02:30- No benefits, no union money.
1:02:30 > 1:02:31- They want to starve us.
1:02:55 > 1:02:57- Dai, wait!
1:03:00 > 1:03:02- We've just had a phone call.
1:03:05 > 1:03:06- Eirlys is dead.
1:03:25 > 1:03:30- When the strike began, I thought - the men would be out for a month...
1:03:30 > 1:03:33- ..then we'd all get back to normal.
1:03:33 > 1:03:37- I never imagined a member - of my family would commit suicide.
1:03:40 > 1:03:41- It's broken us.
1:03:49 > 1:03:51- What about Tuesday?
1:03:51 > 1:03:52- What about Tuesday?- - I can't do Tuesday.
1:03:52 > 1:03:54- Are you going to Eirlys's funeral?
1:03:54 > 1:03:56- Are you going to Eirlys's funeral?- - Yes, of course.
1:03:57 > 1:04:00- I couldn't. A family of scabs.
1:04:01 > 1:04:02- What do they expect?
1:04:02 > 1:04:05- Don't let the Evanses - hear you say that.
1:04:14 > 1:04:17- No, please! I've got to talk to you.
1:04:18 > 1:04:20- Typical! It's all about you.
1:04:21 > 1:04:24- "I fancy Wil Price. I'm depressed."
1:04:24 > 1:04:28- You knew Mam was fragile. - The paper pushed her over the edge.
1:04:28 > 1:04:30- Go away! Leave me alone.
1:04:30 > 1:04:33- I'd do anything - to make things right.
1:04:34 > 1:04:35- This is all your fault.
1:04:35 > 1:04:37- This is all your fault.- - Uncle Deiniol, I was tricked.
1:04:37 > 1:04:39- Scabs! Traitors!
1:04:40 > 1:04:42- How do you think she felt?
1:04:46 > 1:04:51- You didn't think about that - when you talked shit to that paper.
1:04:59 > 1:05:01- You killed Eirlys.
1:05:22 > 1:05:27- Eirlys's funeral was held on the - same day as the rally in Cardiff.
1:05:27 > 1:05:30- I couldn't put my mind - to writing a speech.
1:05:30 > 1:05:34- I was starting to realize - that we'd lose the strike.
1:05:42 > 1:05:46- But everyone carried on - and they kept fighting, as usual.
1:05:46 > 1:05:48- Dad told me...
1:05:48 > 1:05:52- ..you sometimes have to stand - with people you know will lose...
1:05:52 > 1:05:56- ..just because - it's the right thing to do.
1:06:03 > 1:06:05- Two minutes.
1:06:09 > 1:06:13- Wil Price has had a good strike - but I've seen through him.
1:06:14 > 1:06:18- He tricked me - and I'll never forget that.
1:06:21 > 1:06:25- "He who believes in Me - will live even if he dies.
1:06:26 > 1:06:30- "And everyone who lives - and believes in Me will never die.
1:06:30 > 1:06:32- "Do you believe this?
1:06:33 > 1:06:34- "She said to Him...
1:06:34 > 1:06:39- .."Yes, Lord. I have believed that - You are the Christ, the Son of God.
1:06:39 > 1:06:42- "He who comes into the world."
1:06:43 > 1:06:45- Amen.
1:06:50 > 1:06:53- Before the strike, - I thought I knew Mam and Dad...
1:06:54 > 1:06:56- ..but they both have their secrets.
1:06:57 > 1:07:01- There's a lot more to Mam - than I knew before.
1:07:11 > 1:07:12- I lost Eleri forever.
1:07:15 > 1:07:16- It broke my heart.
1:07:18 > 1:07:21- She and Uncle Deiniol - left the valley...
1:07:22 > 1:07:25- ..straight after Eirlys's funeral.
1:07:27 > 1:07:31- The miners went back in March, - having gained nothing...
1:07:31 > 1:07:34- ..even though everyone - had suffered so much.
1:07:35 > 1:07:37- I left too in the end...
1:07:37 > 1:07:38- ..but I came back.
1:07:41 > 1:07:45- Aberelli taught me how to stand up - for people's right to work...
1:07:45 > 1:07:47- ..and to receive fair pay.
1:07:50 > 1:07:53- The 1984 strike is in my blood.
1:07:54 > 1:07:56- THEY LAUGH
1:08:07 > 1:08:09- We lost the strike...
1:08:10 > 1:08:14- ..but we women realized - we could fight as hard as anyone...
1:08:14 > 1:08:17- ..and the world was at our feet.
