Strike! Strike! Strike!

About This Movie

So, 'Strike! Strike! Strike!' dives into the lesser-known history behind the incomplete Doctor Who story, Shada. It’s kind of fascinating, really, how industrial action shaped not just that episode but the entire landscape of TV production in the UK. The documentary has this raw, almost gritty feel, with a mix of interviews and archival footage that gives you a real sense of the era. Pacing is pretty steady; it doesn’t rush through but allows you to absorb the context and impact of the strikes. There’s a distinct atmosphere of nostalgia, yet it’s also a reminder of the challenges faced by those in the industry. If you’re into the behind-the-scenes stuff of classic shows, this one has its own kind of charm.
