What is it that holds a community together? It is only in a crisis that the skeleton of a community is exposed.
The second of four programmes in which Margaret Percy looks at how communities have coped with different types of crisis. Oil
In 1971, oil was discovered under the North Sea to the east of Shetland. The traditional lifestyle of the remote rural community was threatened by the arrival of a massive multi-billion-pound industry. The fishermen and crofters of Shetland Island Council had to take on the might of the giant oil companies in what they saw as a battle for Shetland's future. Producer BRIAN KING BBC Birmingham
