Synopsis
When Carol Shannon, the rebellious daughter of Brassbank's pit manager, falls for young miner, Mick Todd, their relationship causes a storm in the close-knit mining village. The bitterness between their families runs as deep as the coal seams that are the town's lifeblood.
But the hardest battles are yet to come. As 1984 dawns, the yearlong Miner's Strike begins, a dispute that divides the nation and sets communities at war.
Hardship not only threatens Brassbank's survival, but pushes Carol and Mick's relationship to breaking point.
As tragedy strikes, can Carol hold on to her love, her community and her family?
