Episode 3

In this first programme three families give up their 21st century creature comforts and time-travel back to face the hardships of life in the Welsh Valleys, 1927.

This is the final week for the Cartwrights, Griffiths and Phillips and the heat is on. Washing coal black pit clothes, baking and cleaning has taken over the lives of the women and their campaign for pithead baths reaches fever pitch. And across the valley the exhausted men struggle to save their pit and their jobs. But against the odds the Coal House community keep their spirits high and begin to look forward to their return to the comfort and warmth of the 21st century.
