Striking With Pride: United at the Coalface

Striking With Pride: United at the Coalface is a Sky Original feature documentary that explores the unlikely alliance forged between the gay men and lesbians of London, and the striking miners of South Wales, between the 1984 and 1985 London Prides.

The two communities, seemingly worlds apart, became united allies for a common cause in the face of immense challenges.

Their work together changed history for queer rights in the UK, with the legacy those involved created still being felt to this day.

The documentary features exclusive access to a range of key contributors, including former Labour MP Siân James, LGSM co-founder Mike Jackson, and Jonathan Blake.

RuPaul’s Drag Race UK finalist, Tayce, dons her iconic Welsh dragon look to narrate the film, telling the powerful tale to a group of children in a playful and poignant story time session which highlights the lasting impact this story has had on communities 40 years later.
