0:04:46 > 0:04:52- ..when Michael Foot had to explain - the move to his own constituents.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55- The area lost its spirit - during those years.

0:04:55 > 0:04:59- It marked the start - of the area's demise.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03- From this stage, - various sections were closed...

0:05:04 > 0:05:07- ..before the whole place - was closed in 2002.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17- As a result - of the new development...

0:05:17 > 0:05:21- ..the valley attracts workers - from outside the area.

0:05:21 > 0:05:26- It called for the building - of a brand-new train station.

0:05:26 > 0:05:31- The site was in a terrible state - when the works finally closed.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35- Yes, it was a total mess - and needed regeneration.

0:05:35 > 0:05:41- The site of the blast furnaces - was simply a rubbish dump.

0:05:41 > 0:05:47- It was black and red and lacked any - greenery so it needed regenerating.

0:05:47 > 0:05:51- There were plans to regenerate - and resurrect the site.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55- Yes, with the Ebbw Vale - Garden Festival in the 1990s.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57- It was part of a scheme...

0:05:58 > 0:06:02- ..to rejuvenate that part of the - valley and it worked to a degree.

0:06:02 > 0:06:08- They cleared away the mess - and attracted thousands to the area.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10- There's new homes and shops...

0:06:10 > 0:06:13- ..and a new focal point - to that part of the town.

0:06:14 > 0:06:19- We can see the site - as it stands today near the railway.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21- What sort of things are there?

0:06:21 > 0:06:25- The list says - that there's a theatre and a cinema.

0:06:25 > 0:06:30- Yes, the new hospital is behind - the new Ebbw Vale Sports Centre.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34- We have a new school and college.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45- There's also a cable car system...

0:06:45 > 0:06:48- ..that links the station - to the town centre.

0:06:48 > 0:06:54- The plan was to rejuvenate the town, - bring people in via the station...

0:06:54 > 0:06:58- ..and get them to the town centre - to spend their money!

0:06:58 > 0:07:03- I haven't been here for a long time - and the town has totally changed.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07- It seems to have given the area - some confidence...

0:07:07 > 0:07:09- ..and a sense of respect.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11- Yes, that's right.

0:07:11 > 0:07:17- After the works closed, the area - was in a state of depression...

0:07:17 > 0:07:21- ..but looking at - the current condition of the area...

0:07:21 > 0:07:25- ..boosts our self-confidence - and gives us hope for the future.

0:07:28 > 0:07:32- I haven't been in one of these - since I was in Bournemouth.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34- It took us down to the beach.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Oh, and look at this view.

0:07:37 > 0:07:38- We can see the valley properly now.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40- We can see the valley properly now.- - Yes, that's right.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43- It links the valley - with the town centre.

0:07:48 > 0:07:49- Is it fair for the town?

0:07:49 > 0:07:50- Is it fair for the town?- - Yes, I think so.

0:07:51 > 0:07:55- It's part of the regeneration - of the town and the valley...

0:07:55 > 0:07:58- ..which explains the presence - of this funicular.

0:07:58 > 0:08:03- It links the lower part of the town - with the old town centre.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06- So far, it appears to be working.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09- Let's step outside - and prove that fact.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11- After you.

0:08:13 > 0:08:14- Alright?

0:08:35 > 0:08:39- ..they cleared the site - and built all those new buildings.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43- It's taken five years - to build everything on that site.

0:09:41 > 0:09:45- We're in the former home - of Victor Spinetti...

0:09:45 > 0:09:50- ..but this wasn't a consideration - when searching for a property.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52- You were just looking for a house.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54- You were just looking for a house.- - Yes, I needed a home.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57- Very few properties were for sale.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04- There were only two available.

0:10:08 > 0:10:12- I wanted to stay in the village...

0:10:12 > 0:10:15- ..because it is - a lovely place to live.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18- Do you remember Victor Spinetti?

0:10:18 > 0:10:21- No, I don't remember him - living in Cwm...

0:11:52 > 0:11:56- ..recalls that Victor - was very proud of his roots.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58- He was born above this shop.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01- He never felt the heat on stage...

0:12:01 > 0:12:05- ..because he lived above a chip shop - and it was always hot!

0:12:05 > 0:12:10- And also the singing of the miners - going down the street to work.

0:12:10 > 0:12:14- He heard whistling and singing - when they changed shifts.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17- That was all part of his growing up.

0:13:13 > 0:13:18- He said, "My mother thinks you're - lovely and wants to marry you."

0:15:40 > 0:15:45- ..he's a transparent figure that's - made from 20,000 pieces of steel.

0:15:46 > 0:15:52- In the early days, it was silver but - it has weathered and become rusty...

0:15:57 > 0:16:00- The names - can also be found on the tower.

0:16:00 > 0:16:04- Colin Morgan, Abertillery, - Billy Partridge, Blaina.

0:17:26 > 0:17:30- It's very cold in the winter, - believe me!

0:17:30 > 0:17:34- I love the cinema - and I still go there.

0:17:34 > 0:17:39- This takes me back to when I was a - boy waiting for the film to start...

0:17:39 > 0:17:44- ..or when I dated and waited for the - usherette to bring in the ice cream.

0:17:45 > 0:17:49- You had the choice of vanilla - or an Orange Maid ice lolly.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51- Everything was in place.

0:17:51 > 0:17:56- The film was starting, the usherette - was ready and a lady was beside you.

0:17:56 > 0:18:00- Today, the ice cream is on its way, - the film is about to start...

0:18:00 > 0:18:02- ..but I'm stuck with Eifion!

0:18:41 > 0:18:44- However, - it did have a performance stage...

0:18:44 > 0:18:50- ..for an array of concerts - and Eisteddfods.

0:18:50 > 0:18:56- If I remember correctly, I believe - that it could hold 1,200 people.
