The union comes a cropper
A clip relevant to discussions about the changing roles and impact of trade unions in the British economy.
This is one of the most inspirational moments from the 1996 film Brassed Off.
Laura Barton and Felix Clay travel to Orgreave in Yorkshire, site of a pitched battle between striking mineworkers and police in 1984. This clip provides memorable images from the Battle of Orgreave, one of the defining moments in the year-long miners strike of 1983-84 - beyond the memory of students these days.
