Defeat or Triumph?
When the workers take over a factory to run it themselves the conventions have to be rewritten; no boss, no 'them' and 'us' - everyone is in it together. Can it work? Who gives the orders and who takes them?
Co-operatives may work in some countries, but in Britain all but one have collapsed - why? Now even that one - which makes the Triumph Bonneville motorcycle at Meriden - carries a massive debt and is under threat of bankruptcy and liquidation. If Meriden is allowed to die, it will be the end of a British motorcycle legend. The workers must find, in just a few weeks, a rescuing partner.
Harold Williamson follows that search and finds out what brought them to this last-ditch fight for an ideal and an industry.
Clip taken from Man Alive, originally broadcast on BBC Two, 2 October, 1979.
