2014, 112 minutes

(Still) The Enemy Within uncovers the hidden story of these remarkable people and their role in the Great Miners Strike of 84 – 85.

In 1984, Margaret Thatcher labelled 160,000 striking miners, their families and supporters, ‘The Enemy Within’. It was to be the longest industrial dispute in British history. As the strike began, a group of miners emerged that were prepared to fight on the front line of every major battle. They were demonised by the media and despised by the government. Dubbed ‘Arthur’s Army’, they were to lead a fightback that would not just rock the government but would change British society forever.
