Leeds United! by COLIN WELLAND with Lynne Perrie , Elizabeth Spriggs Bert Gaunt , Stan Stennett Lori Wells , Peter Wallis
In the Winter of 1970 Leeds was united by the people who clothe the nation's backs. Forced to strike for a bob-an-hour rise, just twelve old pence, they went about it with a ferocity which shook the city and brought its vast clothing industry to a halt.
Expertly filmed ... sensitively edited ... masterly direction ... (SUNDAY TIMES)
