Is The Coal Face Crumbling?

Synopsis

Six months into the miners' strike, 'Panorama' speaks to all sides about the ongoing dispute. Representatives of the National Coal Board explain their 'back to work' policy, while those who have already returned to work explain their decision and their feelings about being branded 'scabs'. We also hear from the wives of the miners still on strike, whose fury over strike-breakers matches their determination to win the battle.
