About the Show

It’s 1977, and for the first time in Fire Brigade history, a national strike threatens to bring the country to a stand still. In a quiet corner of Cheshire, the lads of Blue Watch are waiting with baited breath to see what this means for them. Will their hopes blaze to union glory or smoulder to ashes, and what will this mean for the Brigade, their loved ones and the lads themselves…? Set against the true life backdrop of strike action, autumn gives way to the Winter of Discontent.
