The year-long miners' strike, that started in March 1984, dominated the news for 12 months. It's been described as 'a site of contested memories' and it still evokes strong feelings in those who lived through the strike and had direct experience of it.

Chris Jackson, in his very first job as a young radio reporter in South Wales, found himself covering the dispute that scarred a generation and more. Now, 40 years after the start of the strike, he's meeting people from different sides, and together they return to a place that holds some very personal memories.
