It’s 1984. In a mining village in the Welsh Valleys, Alys is doing her O-Levels, falling in love, and just being a teenager.

Then, the Miners’ Strike starts. And everything changes.

Forty years later, reeling from her marriage break up, Alys takes her son on a day out in the Valleys: to the zip wire above the site of Tower Colliery. Soon, she finds herself revisiting the year that altered her family’s lives irrevocably.

Siân Owen’s drama is about the children of the Miners’ Strike - and its legacy.
