'''''Brassed Off''''' is a film.
Grimley, a small town [[Oop North]], is based around two things, the colliery ([[Oop North]]-ish for "coal mine") and the colliery band. Gloria, the granddaughter of a now-deceased bandmember, moves back to Grimley, and becomes the first female band member. At the same time, the mine is threatened by closure, which would result in widespread local unemployment and could effectively kill the town. A film much about coping with losses, moving on, and focusing on good things. Most famous for its (understandably) brass band soundtrack, recorded by the Grimethorpe Colliery Band.

* [[Based on a True Story]]: Grimley is a thinly veiled version of Grimethorpe, that went through a similar chain of events. The Grimethorpe Colliery Band played the music for the soundtrack.
