So pleased to see my old friend alive and well as he was back then. Happy memories.
I was born 92 I would think most if not all those people will be gone now god bless them
A fantastic programme.
They demolished our village colliery The North Gawber Colliery Mapplewell and refuse to erect half of a headgear wheel to span the gateway to our village recreation ground. No doubt scrap was of more value than a memory. One sad story about mining is still kept a secrete or never mentioned, "The fate of an injured or retiring pit pony", perhaps one day their story will be told, alas, but we doubt it. I lived next to a pit pony field 1940's & 50's, we knew all their names, some were show ponies, we even had one pony that won the All England Pit Pony Champion Cup at the Royal Yorkshire Show held in Wakefield. It was never talked about of their fate, but it was address in the House of Commons in 1952 with a shocking report.
That moustache was never ok 😂
You grow strong, or quickly withered, in those days!

Why does this presenter talk like he is slightly slow in mind. I live in Yorkshire and have never heard anyone talk in such a strange way.
