This poorly-made C5 film was received with approbrium at the time of transmission when it allowed Ms kRusby senior to spout sloppy attribution of The Recruited Collier on air.

Far from being "a Yorkshire song about miners" and thus by false association "appropriate to Barnsley", it is merely a Bert Lloyd industrialised rehash of a Cumbrian poem Jenny's Complaint about a pressganged farmworker.

Ample research on the song's origins and history has been published extensively in innumerable threads passim, here and elsewhere. The film is notable for its very nice shots of Andy Cutting but needs, otherwise, a comprehensive re-edit leaving, additionally, all the tedious shots of her screwing up in the studio on the cutting room floor.
